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 your 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.
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, chest 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 possible, 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 avoid
contamination of the webbing with
polishes, oils and chemicals, and
particularly battery acid. Cleaning 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.
CAUTION
Belt retraction may become difficult if
the belts and rings are soiled, so try to
keep them clean. For more details
about cleaning the seat belts, refer to
"Seat Belt Maintenance" (page
6-59).

▼Pregnant Women and Persons with
Serious Medical Conditions
Pregnant women should always wear
seat belts. Ask your doctor for specific
recommendations.
The lap belt should be worn SNUGLY
AND AS LOW AS POSSIBLE OVER THE
HIPS.

Child-Restraint
Precautions
▼Child-Restraint Precautions
Mazda strongly urges the use of
child-restraint systems for children
small enough to use them.
Mazda recommends use of a Mazda
genuine child-restraint system or one
that complies with the UN-R
*1 44 or
UN-R 129 regulation. If you would like
to purchase a Mazda genuine
child-restraint system, please contact
an Authorised Mazda Repairer.
Check your local and state or
provincial laws for specific
requirements regarding the safety of
children riding in your vehicle.
*1 UN-R stands for United Nations
Regulation.

Whatever child-restraint system you
consider, please pick the appropriate
one for the age and size of the child,
obey the law and follow the
instructions that come with the
individual child-restraint system.

A child who has outgrown
child-restraint systems should sit in the
rear and use seat belts.

The child-restraint system should be
installed on the rear seat.
Statistics confirm that the rear seat is
the best place for all children up to 12
years of age-the more so with a
supplementary restraint system (air
bags).

A rear-facing child-restraint system
should NEVER be used in the front
passenger seat with the air bag system
activated. The front passenger's seat is
also the least preferred seat for other
child-restraint systems.

For some models, we have provided a
deactivation switch that will disable
front passenger air bag inflation. Do
not switch off the front passenger air
bag without reading the “Front
Passenger Air Bag Deactivation Switch”
(page 2-51).
WARNING
Use the correct size child-restraint
system:
For effective protection in vehicle
accidents and sudden stops, a child
must be properly restrained using a
seat belt or child-restraint system
depending on age and size. If not, the
child could be seriously injured or even
killed in an accident.
Follow the manufacturer's
instructions and always keep the
child-restraint system buckled down:
An unsecured child-restraint system is
dangerous. In a sudden stop or a
collision it could move causing serious
injury or death to the child or other
occupants. Make sure any
child-restraint system is properly
secured in place according to the
child-restraint system manufacturer's
instructions. When not in use, remove
it from the vehicle or fasten it with a
seat belt, or latch it down to BOTH
ISOFIX anchors, and attach the
corresponding tether anchor.
Essential Safety Equipment
Child Restraint
2-27

Always secure a child in a proper
child-restraint system:
Holding a child in your arms while the
vehicle is moving is extremely
dangerous. No matter how strong the
person may be, he or she cannot hold
onto a child in a sudden stop or
collision and it could result in serious
injury or death to the child or other
occupants. Even in a moderate
accident, the child may be exposed to
air bag forces that could result in
serious injury or death to the child, or
the child may be slammed into an
adult, causing injury to both child and
adult.
Extreme Hazard! Never use a
rear-facing child-restraint system on
the front passenger seat with an air
bag that could deploy:
NEVER use a rearward facing child
restraint on a seat protected by an
ACTIVE AIRBAG in front of it, DEATH
or SERIOUS INJURY to the CHILD can
occur.
Vehicles with a front passenger air bag
have the following warning label. The
warning label reminds you not to put a
rear-facing child-restraint system on
the front passenger seat at any time.
(Except Taiwan)

¤'z
Even in a moderate collision, the
child-restraint system can be hit by a
deploying air bag and moved violently
backward resulting in serious injury or
death to the child. If your vehicle is
equipped with a front passenger air
bag deactivation switch, always set the
switch to the OFF position when
installing a rear-facing child-restraint
system on the front passenger seat.
(Taiwan, except front passenger seat, if
equipped with the following label)
NEVER use a rearward facing child
restraint on a seat protected by an
ACTIVE AIRBAG in front of it, DEATH
or SERIOUS INJURY to the CHILD can
occur.
Essential Safety Equipment
Child Restraint
2-28

Do not install a front-facing
child-restraint system on the front
passenger seat unless it is
unavoidable:
In a collision, the force of a deploying
air bag could cause serious injury or
death to the child. If installing a
front-facing child-restraint system on
the front passenger seat is
unavoidable, move the front passenger
seat as far back as possible and adjust
the seat bottom (height adjustable seat
bottom) to the highest position at
which the seat belt fastening the
child-restraint system is securely
tightened.
Make sure that the front passenger air
bag deactivation switch is in the OFF
position. Refer to Front Passenger Air
Bag Deactivation Switch (page 2-51).Do not allow a child or anyone to
lean over or against the side window
of a vehicle with side and curtain air
bags:
It is dangerous to allow anyone to lean
over or against the side window, the
area of the front passenger seat, the
front and rear window pillars and the
roof edge along both sides from which
the side and curtain air bags deploy,
even if a child-restraint system is used.
The impact of inflation from a side or
curtain air bag could cause serious
injury or death to an out of position
child. Furthermore, leaning over or
against the front door could block the
side and curtain air bags and eliminate
the advantages of supplementary
protection. With the front air bag and
the additional side air bag that comes
out of the front seat, the rear seat is
always a better location for children.
Take special care not to allow a child
to lean over or against the side
window, even if the child is seated in a
child-restraint system.
Never use one seat belt on more than
one person at a time:
Using one seat belt for more than one
person at a time is dangerous. A seat
belt used in this way cannot spread the
impact forces properly and the two
passengers could be crushed together
and seriously injured or even killed.
Never use one belt for more than one
person at a time and always operate
the vehicle with each occupant
properly restrained.
Essential Safety Equipment
Child Restraint
2-29

Use the tether and tether anchor only
for a child-restraint system:
Child-restraint system anchorages are
designed to withstand only those loads
imposed by correctly installed
child-restraint systems. Under no
circumstances are they to be used for
adult seat belts, harnesses, or for
attaching other items or equipment to
the vehicle.
Always remove the head restraint and
install child-restraint system (except
when installing a booster seat):
Installing a child-restraint system
without removing the head restraint is
dangerous. The child-restraint system
cannot be installed correctly which
may result in death or injury to the
child in a collision.
CAUTION
A seat belt or child-restraint system can
become very hot in a closed vehicle
during warm weather. To avoid burning
yourself or a child, check them before
you or your child touches them.
NOTE
Your Mazda is equipped with ISOFIX
anchors for attachment of ISOFIX
child-restraint systems on the rear
seats. When using these anchors to
secure a child-restraint system, refer to
“Using ISOFIX Anchor” (page 2-42).
