Luggage or other items are placed on the
seat with the child in the child-restraint
system.
 A rear passenger or luggage pushing or
pulling down on the front passenger
seatback.
 Luggage or other items are placed on the
seatback or hung on the head restraint.
 The seat is washed.
 Liquids are spilled on the seat.
 The front passenger seat is moved
backward, pushing into luggage or other
items placed behind it.
 The front passenger seatback contacts
the rear seat.
 Luggage or other items are placed
between the front passenger seat and
driver seat.
 An electric device is put on the front
passenger's seat.
 An additional electrical device, such as a
seat warmer is installed to the surface of
the front passenger seat.
 Any accessories, which might increase
the total seated weight on the front
passenger seat, are attached to the front
passenger seat.
The designated positions with seat belts on
the rear seats are the safest places for
children. Always use seat belts and child
restraints.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 supplemental
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.

▼If You Must Use th
e Front Seat for
Children
If you cannot put all children in the rear
seat, at least put the smallest children in
the rear and be sure the largest child up
front uses the shou lder belt over the
shoulder.
NEVER put a rear-fac ing child-restraint
system on the front passenger seat whether
your vehicle is equipped with an occupant
classification sensor or not.
This seat is also not set up for tethered
child-restraint systems, put them in one of
the rear seat positions set up with tether
anchors.
Likewise the ISOFIX/LATCH
*1
child-restraint system cannot be secured in
the front passenger's seat and should be
used in the rear seat.
Do not allow anyone to sleep against the
side window since your vehicle has side
and curtain air bags, it could cause serious
injuries to an out of position occupant. As
children more often sleep in cars, it is
better to put them in the rear seat. If
installing the child-restraint system on the
front seat is unavoidable, follow these
instructions when using a front-facing
child-restraint system in the front
passenger's seat.
*1 ISOFIX (Mexico)/LATCH (Except Mexico)
NOTE
To check if your front seats have side air
bags:
Mazda vehicles equipped with side air
bag will have a "SRS AIRBAG" tag on
the outboard shoulder of the front seats.
To check if your vehicle has curtain air
bags:
Mazda vehicles equipped with curtain
air bag will have an "SRS AIRBAG"
marking on the window pillars along the
roof edge.
WA R N I N G
Always move the front passenger seat as
far back as possible if installing a
front-facing child-restraint system on it is
unavoidable:
As your vehicle has front air bags and
doubly so because your vehicle has side air
bags, a front-facing child-restraint system
should be put on the front passenger seat
only when it is unavoidable.
Even if the front passenger air bag
deactivation indicator light illuminates,
always move the seat as far back as
possible, because the force of a deploying
air bag could cause serious injury or death
to the child.
Never use a rear-facing child-restraint
system in the front seat with an air bag
that could deploy:
Rear-facing child-restraint systems on the
front seat are particularly dangerous.
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. Even though you may
feel assured that the front passenger air
bag will not deploy based on the fact that
the front passenger air bag deactivation
indicator light illuminates, you should not
use a rear-facing child-restraint system in
the front seat.

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 supplemental
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.
Always remove the head restraint and
install child-restraint system (except when
installing a backless 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.Always install the head restraint and adjust
it to the appropriate position after
removing the child-restraint system:
Driving with the head restraint removed is
dangerous as impact to the occupant's
head cannot be prevented during
emergency braking or in a collision, which
could result in a serious accident, injury or
death.
Refer to Head Restraints on page 2-17.
Front Passenger's Seat Child-Restraint
System Installation (With Front
Passenger Occupant Classification
System)
1. Make sure the ignition is switched off.
2. Slide the seat as fa r back as possible.
3. Remove the head restraint. However,
when installing a backless booster seat,
always install the vehicle head restraint
to the seat where the backless booster
seat is installed.
4. Place the child-restraint system on the
seat without putting your weight on the
seat and fasten the seat belt. See the
manufacturer's instructions on the
child-restraint syst em for belt routing
instructions.
5. To get the retractor into the automatic locking mode, pull the shoulder belt
portion of the seat belt until the entire
length of the belt is out of the retractor.

Supplemental Restraint
System (SRS) Precautions
▼ Supplemental Restraint System
(SRS) Precautions
The front and side supplemental 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 in dicators. These indicators are
visible in the area where the air bags are
installed.
The air bags are insta lled in the following
locations:

The steering wheel hub (driver air bag)
The front passenger dashboard (front
passenger air bag)
Under the instrument panel (driver and
front passenger
* knee air bags)
The outboard sides of the front
seatbacks (side air bags)
The front and rear window pillars, and
the roof edge along both sides (curtain
air bags)

Vehicles with the Front Passenger
Occupant Classification System have a
sensor which detects an impending
roll-over accident.

The air bag supplemental restraint systems
are designed to provide supplemental
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:
Keep the occupant from being thrown
into an inflating air bag.
Reduce the possibility of injuries during
an accident that is not designed for air
bag inflation, such as rear impact.
Reduce 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.
Reduce the possibility of being thrown
from your vehicle.
Reduce the possibility of injuries to
lower body and legs during an accident
because the air bags provide no
protection to these p arts of the body.
Hold the driver in a position which
allows better control of the vehicle.

Do not hang net bags, map pouches or
backpacks with side straps on the front
seats. Never use seat covers on the front
seats. Always keep the side air bag modules
in your front seats free to deploy in the
event of a side collision.
Do not attach objects on or around the
area where a curtain air bag deploys:
Attaching objects to the areas where the
curtain air bag activates such as on the
windshield glass, side door glass, front and
rear window pillars and along the roof
edge and assist grips is dangerous. In an
accident the object could interfere with the
curtain air bag, which inflates from the
front and rear window pillars and along
the roof edge, impeding the added
protection of the curtain air bag system or
redirecting the air bag in a way that is
dangerous. Furthermore, the bag could be
cut open releasing the gas.
Do not place hangers or any other objects
on the assist grips. When hanging clothes,
hang them on the coat hook directly.
Always keep the curtain air bag modules
free to deploy in the event of a side collision
or roll-over accident.
Do not touch the components of the
supplemental restraint system after the air
bags have inflated:
Touching the components of the
supplemental restraint system after the air
bags have inflated is dangerous.
Immediately after inflation, they are very
hot. You could get burned.Never install any front-end equipment to
your vehicle:
Installation of front-end equipment, such
as frontal protection bar (kangaroo bar,
bull bar, push bar, or other similar devices),
snowplow, or winches, is dangerous. The
air bag crash sensor system could be
affected. This could cause air bags to
inflate unexpectedly, or it could prevent the
air bags from inflating during an accident.
Front occupants could be seriously injured.
Do not modify the suspension:
Modifying the vehicle suspension is
dangerous. If the vehi cle's height or the
suspension is modified, the vehicle will be
unable to accurately detect a collision or
roll-over accident resulting in incorrect or
unexpected air bag deployment and the
possibility of serious injuries.
To prevent false detection by the air bag
sensor system, heed the following:
 Do not use tires or wheels other than
those
specified for your Mazda:
Use of any tire or wheel other than those specified for your Mazda (page 9-9) is
dangerous. Use of such wheels will
prevent the vehicle's accident detections
system from accurately detecting a
collision or roll-over accident resulting in
incorrect or unexpected air bag
deployment and the possibility of serious
injuries.
