Door Locks
Door locks must comply with the fire and building codes, as well as industry-specific or customer-specific security requirements. These could include accessibility for people with disability, safety during an earthquake, blast resistance, retraction of deadbolt torque and the durability of the lock.
A door lock cylinder is a steel tube that houses a bolt that extends from the cylinder, and then locks the door. It also connects a number of pins loaded with springs to prevent the cylinder from rotating. When a key is inserted into a lock, the notches of the key force each of the pins to a precise height that is compatible with their position within the cylinder's housing. When all the pins are placed in their proper position, they create an straight line, which is known as a shear line, that stops the cylinder from rotating and the bolt from advancing, locking the door.
To reset the autolock system, simultaneously hold the lock and unlock buttons on the fob of the key for approximately 60 minutes. This resets the sensor and permits the doors, fuel-filler lid and liftgate to lock automatically when the ignition switch is turned to the off position. The settings for the automatic lock/unlock feature can be altered by referring to the Settings section of the Mazda Connect Owner's Manual. The hazard lights and horns will blink to indicate that the automatic lock feature has been activated.
