Supplementary Restraint
System (SRS) Precautions
▼Supplementary Restraint System
(SRS) Precautions
The front and side supplementary
restraint systems (SRS) include
different
types of air bags. Please verify the
different types of air bags which are
equipped on your vehicle by locating
the “SRS AIRBAG” location indicators.
These indicators are visible in the area
where the air bags are installed.
The air bags are installed in the
following locations:
xThe steering wheel hub (driver air
bag)
xThe front passenger instrument panel
(front passenger air bag)
xUnder the instrument panel (driver
knee air bag)
xThe outboard sides of the front
seatbacks (side air bags)
xThe front and rear window pillars,
and the roof edge along both sides
(curtain air bags)

Some vehicles have a sensor which
detects an impending roll-over
accident.

The air bag supplementary restraint
systems are designed to provide
supplementary protection in certain
situations so seat belts are always
important in the following ways:

Without seat belt usage, the air bags
cannot provide adequate protection
during an accident. Seat belt usage is
necessary to:
xKeep the occupant from being
thrown into an
inflating air bag.
xReduce the possibility of injuries
during an accident that is not
designed for air bag inflation, such as
rear impact.
xReduce the possibility of injuries in
frontal, near frontal or side collisions
or roll-over accidents that are not
severe enough to activate the air
bags.
xReduce the possibility of being
thrown from your vehicle.
xReduce the possibility of injuries to
lower body and legs during an
accident because the air bags
provide no protection to these parts
of the body.
xHold the driver in a position which
allows better control of the vehicle.

A child who is too small to use a seat
belt must be properly secured using a
child-restraint system (page 2-27).

Carefully consider which child-restraint
system is necessary for your child and
follow the installation directions in this
Owner's Manual as well as the
child-restraint system manufacturer's
instructions.

Do not operate a vehicle with
damaged air bag/seat belt
pretensioner system components:
Expended or damaged air bag/seat
belt pretensioner system components
must be replaced after any collision
which caused them to deploy or
damage them. Only a trained expert
repairer (we recommend an
Authorised Mazda Repairer) can fully
evaluate these systems to see that they
will work in any subsequent accident.
Driving with an expended or damaged
air bag or pretensioner unit will not
afford you the necessary protection in
the event of any subsequent accident
which could result in serious injury or
death.
Do not remove interior air bag parts:
Removing any components such as the
front seats, front instrument panel, 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 components.
The air bag could accidentally activate
and cause serious injuries. Always have
an expert repairer (we recommend an
Authorised Mazda Repairer) remove
these parts.
Properly dispose of the air bag
system:
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 could
result. Have an expert repairer (we
recommend an Authorised Mazda
Repairer) safely dispose of the air bag
system or scrap an air bag equipped
vehicle.NOTE
xWhen an air bag deploys, a loud
inflation noise can be heard and
some smoke will be released.
Neither is likely to cause injury,
however, the texture of the air bags
may cause light skin injuries on body
parts not covered with clothing
through friction.
xShould you sell your Mazda, we urge
you to tell the new owner of its air
bag systems and that familiarization
with all instructions about them,
from the Owner's Manual, is
important.
xThis highly-visible label warns against
the use of a rear-facing
child-restraint system on the front
passenger seat.

How the SRS Air Bags
Work
▼How the SRS Air Bags Work
Your Mazda is equipped with the
following types of SRS air bags. SRS air
bags are designed to work together
with the seat belts to help to reduce
injuries during an accident.
The SRS air bags are designed to
provide further protection for
passengers in addition to the seat belt
functions. Be sure to wear seat belts
properly.
▼Seat Belt Pretensioners
The pretensioners operate differently
depending on what types of air bags
are equipped. For more details about
seat belt pretensioner operation, refer
to the SRS Air Bag Deployment Criteria
(page 2-58).
Front
The front seat belt pretensioners are
designed to deploy in moderate or
severe frontal, near frontal collisions.
In addition,the pretensioners operate
when a side collision or a roll-over
accident (with roll-over sensor) is
detected.
Rear Outboard
*
The rear outboard seat belt
pretensioners are designed to deploy
in moderate or severe frontal, near
frontal collisions.
▼Driver Air Bag
The driver's air bag is mounted in the
steering wheel.
When air bag crash sensors detect a
frontal impact of greater than
moderate force, the driver's air bag
inflates quickly helping to reduce injury
mainly to the driver's head or chest
caused by directly hitting the steering
wheel.
For more details about air bag
deployment, refer to "SRS Air Bag
Deployment Criteria" (page 2-58).
(With Front Passenger Air Bag
Deactivation Switch)
The inflation of the driver's dual-stage
air bag is controlled in two energy
stages depending on the driver's seat
position. The driver's seat slide
position sensor is located under the
driver's seat. The sensor determines
whether the driver's seat is forward of
or behind a reference position and
sends the seat position to the
diagnostic module (SAS unit). The SAS
unit 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.
During an impact of moderate severity,
the driver's air bag deploys with lesser
energy, whereas during more severe
impacts and when the driver's seat is
behind the reference position, it
deploys with more energy.
▼Front Passenger Air Bag
The front passenger air bag is mounted
in the front passenger instrument
panel.
Essential Safety Equipment
SRS Air Bags
*Some models.2-55

The inflation mechanism for the front
passenger air bag is the same as the
driver's air bag.
For more details about air bag
deployment, refer to "SRS Air Bag
Deployment Criteria" (page 2-58).
▼Driver Knee Air Bag
The knee air bag is equipped under the
instrument panel.
If the air bag crash sensors receive a
frontal impact of greater than
moderate force, the knee air bag
deploys immediately to reduce impact
to the driver's legs.
For more details about air bag
deployment, refer to "SRS Air Bag
Deployment Criteria" (page 2-58).
▼Side Air Bags
The side air bags are mounted in the
outboard sides of the front seatbacks.
When the air bag crash sensors detect
a side impact of greater than moderate
force, the system inflates the side air
bag only on the side in which the
vehicle was hit. The side air bag inflates
quickly to reduce injury to the driver or
front passenger's chest caused by
directly hitting interior parts such as a
door or window.
For more details about air bag
deployment, refer to "SRS Air Bag
Deployment Criteria" (page 2-58).

▼Curtain Air Bags
The curtain air bags are mounted in the
front and rear window pillars, and the
roof edge along both sides.
When the air bag crash sensors detect
a side impact of greater than moderate
force, the curtain air bag inflates
quickly and helps to reduce injury
mainly to the driver and front and rear
outboard passengers' heads caused by
directly hitting interior parts such as a
door or window.
For more details about air bag
deployment, refer to "SRS Air Bag
Deployment Criteria" (page 2-58).
In a side impact:
Greater than moderate impact to one
side of the vehicle will cause the

WARNING
Always take all children and pets with
you or leave a responsible person
with them:
Leaving a child or a pet 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.
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.
Always close all the windows and
sunroof, lock the doors, fuel-filler
flap, and liftgate and take the key with
you when leaving your vehicle
unattended:
Leaving your vehicle unlocked is
dangerous as children could lock
themselves in a hot vehicle, which
could result in death. Also, a vehicle
left unlocked becomes an easy target
for thieves and intruders.
After closing the doors and the
liftgate, always verify that they are
securely closed:
Doors and the liftgate not securely
closed are dangerous, if the vehicle is
driven with a door and the liftgate not
securely closed, the door and the
liftgate could open unexpectedly
resulting in an accident.
Always confirm the safety around the
vehicle before opening a door and the
liftgate:
Suddenly opening a door and the
liftgate is dangerous. A passing vehicle
or a pedestrian could be hit and cause
an accident.
CAUTION
¾Always confirm the conditions
around the vehicle before opening/
closing the doors and the liftgate and
use caution during strong winds or
when parked on an incline. Not
being aware of the conditions
around the vehicle is dangerous
because fingers could get caught in
the door and the liftgate or a passing
pedestrian could be hit, resulting in
an unexpected accident or injury.
