2020 MAZDA MODEL CX-30 seats

instructions from the child-restraint
system manufacturer.
8. Switch the ignition ON and make sure the front passenger air bag
deactivation indicator light
illuminates after installing a
child-restraint system on the front
passenger seat.
If the front passenger air bag
deactivation indicator light does
not illuminate, remove the
child-restraint system, switch the
ignition to OFF, and then re-install
the child-restraint system (page
2-64).
WARNING
Do not seat a child in a child-restraint
system on the front passenger seat if
the front passenger air bag
deactivation indicator light does not
illuminate:
While it is always better to install any
child-restraint system on the rear seat,
it is imperative that a child-restraint
system ONLY be used on the front
passenger seat if the deactivation
indicator light illuminates when the
child is seated in the child-restraint
system (page 2-64). Seating a child in
a child-restraint system installed on the
front passenger seat with the front
passenger air bag deactivation
indicator light not illuminated is
dangerous. If this indicator light does
not illuminate, this means that the
front passenger front and side air bags,
and knee air bags, and seat belt
pretensioners are ready for
deployment. If an accident were to
deploy an air bag , a child in a
child-restraint system sitting in the
front passenger seat could be seriously
injured or killed. If the indicator light
does not illuminate after seating a
child in a child-restraint system on the
front passenger seat, seat a child in a
child-restraint system on the rear seat
and consult an Authorized Mazda
Dealer as soon as possible.
▼ Using ISOFIX Lower Anchor
(Mexico)/Using LATCH Lower
Anchor (Except Mexico)
Your Mazda is equipped with ISOFIX/
LATCH*1 lower anchors for attachment
of specially designed ISOFIX/LATCH*1
child-restraint systems in the rear seats.
Both anchors must be used, otherwise
the seat will bounce around and put
the child in danger. Most ISOFIX/
LATCH
*1 child-restraint systems must
also be used in conjunction with a
tether to be effective. If they have a
tether you must use it to better assure
your child's safety.

WARNING
Follow the manufacturer's
instructions for the use of the
child-restraint system:
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 the
child-restraint system is properly
secured in place according to the
child-restraint system manufacturer's
instructions.
Never attach two child-restraint
systems to the same ISOFIX/LATCH
*1
lower anchor:
Attaching two child-restraint systems
to the same ISOFIX/LATCH
*1 lower
anchor is dangerous. In a collision, one
anchor may not be strong enough to
hold two child-restraint system
attachments, and it may break, causing
serious injury or death. If you use the
seat position for another child-restraint
system when an outboard ISOFIX/
LATCH
*1 position is occupied, use the
center seat belts instead, and the
tether if tether-equipped.
Make sure the child-restraint system is
properly secured:
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. Follow the child-restraint
system manufacturer's instructions on
belt routing to secure the seat just as
you would with a child in it so that
nobody is tempted to put a child in an
improperly secured seat later on.
When not in use, remove it from the
vehicle or fasten it with a seat belt, or
attach it to BOTH ISOFIX/LATCH
*1
lower anchors for ISOFIX/LATCH*1
child-restraint systems.
Make sure there are no seat belts or
foreign objects near or around the
ISOFIX/LATCH
*1 child-restraint
system:
Not following the child-restraint system
manufacturer's instructions when
installing the child-restraint system is
dangerous. If seat belts or a foreign
object prevent the child-restraint
system from being securely attached to
the ISOFIX/LATCH
*1 lower anchors
and the child-restraint system is
installed improperly, the child-restraint
system could move in a sudden stop or
collision causing serious injury or death
to the child or other occupants. When
installing the child-restraint system,
make sure there are no seat belts or
foreign objects near or around the
ISOFIX/LATCH
*1 lower anchors.
Always follow the child-restraint
system manufacturer's instructions.

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.
1. Tether strap
2. Anchor bracket
3. Forward
Always attach the tether strap to the
correct tether anchor position:
Attaching the tether strap to the
incorrect tether anchor position is
dangerous. In a collision, the tether
strap could come off and loosen the
child-restraint system. If the
child-restraint system moves it could
result in death or injury to the child.
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 2-15.

Installation on rear center seat
The ISOFIX/LATCH*1 lower anchors at
the center of the rear seat are much
further apart than the sets of ISOFIX/
LATCH
*1 lower anchors for
child-restraint system installation at
other seating positions. Child-restraint
systems with rigid ISOFIX/LATCH
*1
attachments cannot be installed on the
center seating position. Some ISOFIX/
LATCH
*1 equipped child-restraint
systems can be placed in the center
position and will reach the nearest
ISOFIX/LATCH
*1 lower anchors which
are 415 mm (16.3 in) apart. ISOFIX/
LATCH
*1 compatible child-restraint
systems (with attachments on belt
webbing) can be used at this seating
position only if the child-restraint
system manufacturer's instructions
state that the child-restraint system can
be installed to ISOFIX/LATCH
*1 lower
anchors that are 415 mm (16.3 in)
apart. Do not attach two child-restraint
systems to the same ISOFIX/LATCH
*1
lower anchor. If your child-restraint
system has a tether, it must also be
used for your child's optimum safety.

The procedure is the same as the
installation for the rear outboard seats.

law in every state and province. In
certain states and provinces, larger
children must use a child-restraint
system (page 2-29).

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.
WARNING
Seat belts must be worn in air bag
equipped vehicles:
Depending only on the air bags for
protection during an accident is
dangerous. Alone, air bags may not
prevent serious injuries. The
appropriate air bags can be expected
to inflate only in the first accident, such
as frontal, near frontal or side collisions
or roll-over accidents that are at least
moderate. Vehicle occupants should
always wear seat belts.

Children should not ride in the front
passenger seat:
Placing a child, 12 years or under, in
the front seat is dangerous. The child
could be hit by a deploying air bag and
be seriously injured or even killed. A
sleeping child is more likely to lean
against the door and be hit by the side
air bag in moderate collision to the
front-passenger side of the vehicle.
Whenever possible, always secure a
child 12 years and under on the rear
seats with an appropriate
child-restraint system for the child's
age and size.
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 though you may feel
assured that a front passenger air bag
will not deploy based on the fact that
the front passenger air bag
deactivation indicator light illuminates.
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.
Do not sit too close to the driver and
front passenger air bags:
Sitting too close to the driver and front
passenger air bag modules or placing
hands or feet on them is extremely
dangerous. The driver and front
passenger air bags inflate with great
force and speed. Serious injuries could
occur if someone is too close. The
driver should always hold onto only the
rim of the steering wheel. The front
seat passenger should keep both feet
on the floor. Front seat occupants
should adjust their seats as far back as
possible and always sit upright against
the seatbacks with seat belts worn
properly.

Sit in the center of the seat and wear
seat belts properly:
Sitting too close to the side air bag
modules or placing hands on them, or
sleeping up against the door or
hanging out the windows is extremely
dangerous. The side and curtain air
bags inflate with great force and speed
directly expanding along the door on
the side the car is hit. Serious injury
could occur if someone is sitting too
close to the door or leaning against a
window, or if rear seat occupants grab
the sides of the front seatbacks. Give
the side and curtain air bags room to
work by sitting in the center of the seat
while the vehicle is moving with seat
belts worn properly.
Do not attach objects on or around
the area where driver and front
passenger air bags deploy:
Attaching an object to the driver and
front passenger air bag modules or
placing something in front of them is
dangerous. In an accident, an object
could interfere with air bag
inflation
and injure the occupants.
Do not attach objects on or around
the area where a side air bag deploys:
Attaching objects to the front seat in
such a way as to cover the outboard
side of the seat in any way is
dangerous. In an accident the object
could interfere with the side air bag,
which inflates from the outboard side
of the front seats, impeding the added
protection of the side 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 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.

Do not modify the supplemental
restraint system:
Modifying the components or wiring of
the supplemental restraint system is
dangerous. You could accidentally
activate it or make it inoperable. Do
not make any modifications to the
supplemental restraint system. This
includes installing trim, badges, or
anything else over the air bag modules.
It also includes installing extra
electrical equipment on or near system
components or wiring. An Authorized
Mazda Dealer can provide the special
care needed in the removal and
installation of front seats. It is
important to protect the air bag wiring
and connections to assure that the
bags do not accidentally deploy, and
that the front passenger occupant
classification system and the seats
retain an undamaged air bag
connection.
Do not place luggage or other objects
under the front seats:
Placing luggage or other objects under
the front seats is dangerous. The
components essential to the
supplemental restraint system could be
damaged, and in the event of a side
collision, the appropriate air bags may
not deploy, which could result in death
or serious injury. To prevent damage to
the components essential to the
supplemental restraint system, do not
place luggage or other objects under
the front seats.
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
Authorized Mazda Dealer 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 dashboard, 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 Authorized Mazda Dealer 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 Authorized Mazda
Dealer safely dispose of the air bag
system or scrap an air bag equipped
vehicle.

Moonroof*
▼Moonroof
The moonroof can be opened or
closed when operating the overhead
tilt/slide switch at the front seats.
WARNING
Do not let passengers stand up or
extend part of the body through the
open moonroof while the vehicle is
moving:
Extending the head, arms, or other
parts of the body through the
moonroof is dangerous. The head or
arms could hit something while the
vehicle is moving. This could cause
serious injury or death.
Never allow children to play with the
tilt/slide switch:
The tilt/slide switch would allow
children to operate the moonroof
unintentionally, which could result in
serious injury if a child's hands, head
or neck becomes caught by the
moonroof.
Make sure the opening is clear before
closing the moonroof:
A closing moonroof is dangerous. The
hands, head, or even neck of a person,
especially a child, could be caught in it
as it closes, causing serious injury or
even death.
Make sure nothing blocks the
moonroof just before it reaches the
fully closed position:
Blocking the moonroof just before it
reaches the closed position is
dangerous.
In this case, the jam-safe function
cannot prevent the moonroof from
closing. If fingers are caught, serious
injuries could occur.
CAUTION

Do not sit on or put heavy items on
the area where the moonroof opens
and closes. Otherwise, the
moonroof could be damaged.
