SRS Air Bags
Form No. 8R29-EA-02I
The supplemental restraint systems (SRS) have two basic subsystems:
•
The air bag system with inflators and air bags.
•
The electric system with crash sensors and diagnostic module.
The air bags are mounted in the following locations: the center of the steering wheel, the
passenger-side of the dashboard, in the outboard sides of the front seatbacks and the front
and rear window pillars
*, along the roof edge*. They are out of sight until activated.
*If equipped.*1The driver’s seat slide position sensor determines whether the driver’s seat is fore or aft
of a reference position. The sensor is designed to control the deployment of the driver’s
air bag depending on how close the driver’s seat is to the steering wheel.
*2The buckle switches on the front seat belts determine whether or not the front seat belts
are securely fastened and further control the deployment of the air bags on the front
seats.

Maintenance
The air bag systems do not require regular
maintenance. But if any of the following
occurs, take your vehicle to an Authorized
Mazda Dealer as soon as possible:
•
The air bag system warning light
flashes.
•
The air bag system warning light stays
on.
•
The air bag system warning light stays
off when the ignition switch is turned
to the ON position.
•
The air bags inflate.
Damaged Air Bag Sensors:Driving with damaged air bag sensors
is dangerous. A collision, even one
not strong enough to inflate the air
bags, could damage the sensors. If
there was a subsequent collision, a
damaged sensor would not inflate the
air bags. Always have an Authorized
Mazda Dealer inspect the air bag
systems after a collision.
Removing Interior Parts:
Removing any components such as
the front seat, front dashboard, the
steering wheel or parts on the front
and rear window pillars
* and along
the roof edge*, containing air bag
parts or sensors is dangerous. These
parts contain essential air bag parts.
The air bag could accidentally
activate and cause serious injuries.
Always have an Authorized Mazda
Dealer remove these parts.
*If equipped with side or curtain air
bags.
Air Bag Disposal:
Improper disposal of an air bag or a
vehicle with live air bags in it can be
extremely dangerous. Unless all
safety procedures are followed, injury
can result. Ask an Authorized Mazda
Dealer how to safely dispose of an air
bag or how to scrap an air bag
equipped vehicle.

Doors and Locks
Your Mazda has two kinds of keys:
primary and secondary.
Here’s what the keys are used for:
If you must leave your vehicle with
another person, such as a parking
attendant, protect items by locking the
glove box and trunk lid with the primary
key. Keep that key and give the other
person only the secondary key.
A code number is stamped on the plate
attached to the key set; detach this plate
and store it in a safe place (not in the
vehicle) for use if you need to make a
replacement key.
Also write down the code number and
keep it in another safe and handy place,
but not in the vehicle.
If your key is lost, consult your
Authorized Mazda Dealer with the code
number ready.Keys
Keys and Children:Leaving children in a vehicle with the
ignition key is dangerous. This could
result in someone being badly injured
or even killed. They could play with
power windows or other controls, or
even make the vehicle move. Don’t
leave the keys in your vehicle with
children.
•
To avoid damage to the key, do not:
Drop the key.
Get the key wet.
Expose the key to any kind of
magnetic field.
Expose the key to high
temperatures on places such as
the dashboard or hood, under
direct sunlight.
•
When starting the engine, do not let
the following materials touch the
key grip. The engine may not start:
Spare keys.
Keys for other vehicles equipped
with an immobilizer system.
Metal objects that touch or pass
through the hole in the key.
Devices for electronic purchases,
and security passage.

Service
If you have a problem with the keyless
entry system, consult an Authorized
Mazda Dealer.
If your transmitter is lost or stolen, bring
all remaining transmitters to an
Authorized Mazda Dealer as soon as
possible for a replacement and to make
the lost or stolen transmitter inoperative.
•
Changes or modifications could
cause malfunctions and void the
keyless entry system warranty.
•
Damage to your keyless entry
system may prevent other systems

affect the vehicle warranty
coverage.
CAUTION

Unattended Children and Pets:Leaving a child or an animal
unattended in a parked vehicle is
dangerous. In hot weather,
temperatures inside a vehicle can
become high enough to cause brain
damage or even death. Always take all
children and animals with you or
leave a responsible person with them.
Keys and Children:
Leaving children in a vehicle with the
ignition key is dangerous. This could
result in someone being badly injured
or even killed. They could play with
power windows or other controls, or
even make the vehicle move. Don’t
leave the keys in your vehicle with
children.
Unlocked Doors:
Unlocked doors in a moving vehicle
are dangerous. Passengers can fall
out if a door is accidentally opened
and can more easily be thrown out in
an accident. So keep all doors locked
when driving.
NOTE
Always remove the key from the
ignition switch, close all windows, and
lock all doors when leaving your
vehicle unattended. This discourages
intruders and thieves.

Power Windows
Closing Power Windows:Closing power windows are
dangerous. A person’s hands, head,

window and result in serious injury or
even death.
This warning applies especially to
children. Make sure the opening is
clear before closing a window.
Children and Power Windows:
Leaving the power window switches
unlocked while children are in the
vehicle is dangerous. Power window
switches that are not locked with the
power window lock switch would
allow children to operate power
windows unintentionally which could
result in serious injury if a child’s
hands, head or neck becomes caught
by the window. Always lock all
passenger power windows with the
power window lock switch on the
driver’s side while children are in the
vehicle, and never allow children to
play with power window switches.
To prevent burning out the fuse and
damaging the power window system,
don’t open or close more than two
windows at once.
