Folding the seatbacks
WA R N I N G
Make sure the adjustable components of a
second-row seat are locked after folding
down the seatback:
A second-row seat that is not securely
locked is dangerous. In a sudden stop or
collision, the second-row seat could move,
causing injury.
After folding down the seatback of a
second-row seat, make
sure the adjustable
components of the seat are locked in place
by attempting to slide the seat forward and
backward.
CAUTION
 When folding the seatback forward,
always support the seatback with your
hand. If it is not supported by a hand,
fingers or the hand raising the lever
could be injured.
 Check the position of a front seat before
folding a second-row seatback.
Depending on the position of a front
seat, it may not be possible to fold a
second-row seatback all the way down
because it may hit the seatback of the
front seat which could scratch or
damage the front seat or its pocket.
Remove the head restraint on the
second-row outboard seat if necessary.
1. Lower the head restraint all the way down.
Refer to Head Restraints on page

The head restraints on each of the front
and second-row seats are specialized to
each seat. Do not switch around the
head restraint positions. If a head
restraint is not installed to its correct seat
position, the effectiveness of the head
restraint during a collision will be
compromised which could cause injury.

Seat Belt Precautions
Seat belts help to decrease the possibility of severe injury during accidents and sudden
stops. Mazda recommends that the driver and all passengers always wear seat belts.

(Except Mexico)
All of the seat belt retractors are designed to keep the lap/sh oulder belts out of the way when
not in use.
The driver's seat belt has no provisions for child-restraint sy stems and has only an
emergency locking mode. The driver may wear it comfortably, and it will lock during a
collision.
However, the front passenger's seat and all rear lap/shoulder b elt retractors operate in two
modes: emergency locking mode, and for child-restraint systems, automatic locking mode.
While we recommend you put all chi ldren in the rear seats, if you must use the front
passenger seat for a child, slide the front passenger seat as f ar back as possible and make
sure any child-restraint sy stem is secured properly.

(Mexico)
All the seats have lap/shoulder belts. These belts have retract ors with inertia locks that keep
them out of the way when not in use. The locks allow the belts to remain comfortable on
users, but they will lock in position during a collision.
WA R N I N G
Always wear your seat belt and make sure all occupants are properly restrained:
Not wearing a seat belt is extremely dangerous . During a collision, occupants not wearing
seat belts could hit someone or things inside th e vehicle or even be thrown out of the vehicle.
They could be seriously injured or even killed. In the same collision, occupants wearing seat
belts would be much safer.
Do not wear twisted seat belts:
Twisted seat belts are dangerous. In a collision, the full width of the belt is not available to
absorb the impact. This puts more force on the bones beneath the belt, which could cause
serious injury or death. So, if your seat belt is twisted, you must straighten the seat belt to
remove any twists and to allow the full width of the belt to be used.
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.
