2017 MAZDA MODEL CX-5 battery

(Manual Seat)
When moving the seats forward and rearward or returning a rear-reclined seatback to its
upright position, make sure you hold onto the seatback with your hand while operating. If
the seatback is not held, the seat will move suddenly and could cause injury.
NOTE
•When returning a rear seat to its original position, place the seat belt in its normal
position. Verify that the seat belt pulls out and retracts.
•(Power Seat)
The seat-bottom power adjustment is operated by motors. Avoid extended operation
because excessive use can damage the motors.
•To prevent the battery from running down, avoid using the power adjustment when the
engine is stopped. The adjuster uses a large amount of electrical power.
•Do not use the switch to make more than one adjustment at a time.

Positioning the Shoulder Portion of the Seat Belt:
Improper positioning of the shoulder portion of the seat belt is dangerous. Always make sure
the shoulder portion of the seat belt is positioned across your shoulder and near your neck,
but never under your arm, on yo ur neck, or on your upper arm.
Positioning the Lap Portion of the Seat Belt:
The lap portion of the seat belt worn too high is dangerous. In a collision, this would
concentrate the impact force directly on the abdominal area, causing serious injury. Wear the
lap portion of the belt snugly and as low as possible.

In a rollover crash, an unbelted person is significantly more likely to die than a person wearing
a seat belt.

Instructions for Use of Seat Belt Assemblies:
Seatbelts are designed to bear upon the bony structure of the body, and should be worn low
across the front of the pelvis or the pelvis, ch est and shoulders, as applicable; wearing the lap
section of the belt across the abdominal area must be avoided.
Seatbelts should be adjusted as firmly as possi ble, consistent with comfort, to provide the
protection for which they have been designed. A slack belt will greatly reduce the protection
afforded to the wearer.
Care should be taken to avoi d contamination of the webbing with polishes, oils and
chemicals, and particularly battery acid. Cleani ng may safely be carried out using mild soap
and water. The belt should be replaced if webbing becomes frayed, contaminated or
damaged.
It is essential to replace the entire assembly after it has been worn in a severe impact even if
damage to the assembly is not obvious.
Belts should not be worn with straps twisted.
Each belt assembly must only be used by one occupant; it is dangerous to put a belt around a
child being carried on the occupant's lap.
No modifications or additions should be made by the user which will either prevent the seat
belt adjusting devices from operating to remove slack, or prevent the seat belt assembly from
being adjusted to remove slack.

Do not leave the key in your vehicle with
children and keep them in a place where
your children will not find or play with
them:
Leaving children in a vehicle with the key is
dangerous. This could result in someone
being badly injured or even killed. Children
may find these keys to be an interesting toy
to play with and could cause the power
windows or other controls to operate, or
even make the vehicle move.
CAUTION
Because the key (transmitter) uses
low-intensity radio waves, it may not
function correctly under the following
conditions:
 The key is carried with communication
devices such as cellular phones.
 The key contacts or is covered by a
metal object.
 The key is near electronic devices such
as personal computers.
 Non-Mazda genuine electronic
equipment is installed in the vehicle.
 There is equipment which discharges
radio waves near the vehicle.
 The key (transmitter) may consume
battery power excessively if it receives
high-intensity radio waves. Do not place
the key near electronic devices such as
televisions or personal computers.
 To avoid damage to the key
(transmitter), DO NOT:
 Drop the key.
 Get the key wet.
 Disassemble the key.

on places such as the instrument panel
or bonnet, under direct sunlight.
 Expose the key to any kind of magnetic
field.
 Place heavy objects on the key.
 Put the key in an ultrasonic cleaner.
 Put any magnetized objects close to
the 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
