WARNING
Do not drive the vehicle with the air
bag/front seat belt pretensioner system
warning beep sounding:
Driving the vehicle with the air bag/
front seat belt pretensioner system
warning beep sounding is dangerous.
In a collision, the air bags and the
front seat belt pretensioner system
will not deploy and this could result
in death or serious injury.
Contact an Authorized Mazda Dealer
to have the vehicle inspected as soon
as possible.
qSeat Belt Warning Beep
If the driver's seat belt is not fastened
when the ignition is switched ON, a beep
sound will be heard for about 6 seconds.
If the driver or the front passenger's seat
belt is not fastened and the vehicle is
driven at a speed faster than about 20
km/h (12 mph), a beep sound will be
heard again for a specified period of time.
NOTE
lSome models do not have the seat belt
warning function for the front passenger's
seat.
lPlacing heavy items on the front passenger
seat may cause the front passenger seat belt
warning function to operate depending on
the weight of the item.
lTo allow the front passenger seat weight
sensor to function properly, do not place
and sit on an additional seat cushion on the
front passenger seat. The sensor may not
function properly because the additional
seat cushion could cause sensor
interference.
lWhen a small child sits on the front
passenger seat, it is possible that the
warning beep will not operate.
qIgnition Not Switched Off
(STOP) Warning Beep
If the driver's door is opened while the
ignition is switched to ACC, a continuous
beep sound will be heard to notify the
driver that the ignition has not been
switched off (STOP) (for vehicles with a
type A meter, messages are displayed in
the instrument cluster). Left in this
condition, the keyless entry system will
not operate, the car cannot be locked, and
the battery power will be depleted.
qKey Removed from Vehicle
Warning Beep
Under the following conditions, a beep
sound will be heard and the KEY warning
light (red) will flash continuously when
the ignition has not been switched off to
notify the driver that the key has been
removed (for vehicles with a type A
meter, messages are displayed in the
instrument cluster). The KEY warning
light (red) will stop flashing when the key
is back inside the vehicle (for vehicles
with a type A meter, messages are
displayed in the instrument cluster):
The ignition has not been switched off
and all the doors are closed after
removing the key from the vehicle. (A
beep sound will be heard 6 times.)
NOTE
Because the key utilizes low-intensity radio
waves, the Key Removed From Vehicle
Warning may activate if the key is carried
together with a metal object or it is placed in a
poor signal reception area.
