Seat Belts
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.
All of the seat belt retractors are
designed to keep the lap/shoulder
belts out of the way when not in use.
The driver's seat belt has no provisions
for child-restraint systems 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 belt
retractors operate in two modes:
emergency locking mode, and for
child-restraint systems, automatic
locking mode. While we recommend
you put all children in the rear seats, if
you must use the front passenger seat
for a child, slide the front passenger
seat as far back as possible and make
sure any child-restraint system is
secured properly.
ELR (emergency locking retractor)
system
When the seat belt is fastened, it will
always be in the emergency locking
mode.
In the emergency locking mode, the
belt remains comfortable on the
occupant and the retractor will lock in
position during a collision.
If the belt is locked and cannot be
pulled out, retract the belt once, and
then try pulling it out slowly. If this
fails, pull the belt strongly 1 time and
loosen, then pull it out again slowly.
When the seat belt is fastened, it will
always be in the emergency locking
mode until it is switched to automatic
locking mode by pulling it all the way
out to its full length. If the belt feels
tight and hinders comfortable
movement while the vehicle is stopped
or in motion, it may be in the
automatic locking mode because the
belt has been pulled too far out. To
return the belt to the more
comfortable emergency locking mode,
wait until the vehicle has stopped in a
safe, level area, retract the belt fully to
convert it back to emergency locking
mode and then extend it around you
again.
Automatic locking mode
Always use the automatic locking
mode to keep the child-restraint
system from shifting to an unsafe
position in the event of an accident. To
enable seat belt automatic locking
mode, pull it all the way out and
connect it as instructed on the
child-restraint system. It will retract
down to the child-restraint system and
stay locked on it. See the section on
child restraint (page 3-59).
Pretensioner system
If the vehicle receives a strong impact
from the front or side of the vehicle,
the system retracts the seat belts to
increase their effect.
When a collision is detected, the
pretensioners deploy simultaneously
with the air bags.
The seat belt retractor quickly removes
slack when an air bag is inflated.
The pretensioners deploy
simultaneously with the air bags when
a roll-over is also detected.
The seat belt retractors remove slack
quickly as the air bags are expanding.
Any time the air bags and seat belt
pretensioners have fired they must be
replaced.

Warnings and Cautions
for Using the Front Seats
WARNING
Never allow children to adjust a seat.
Allowing children to adjust a seat is
dangerous as it could result in serious
injury if a child's hands or feet become
caught in the seat.
Do not drive with the seatback
unlocked.
All of the seatbacks play an important
role in your protection in a vehicle.
Leaving the seatback unlocked is
dangerous as it can allow passengers
to be ejected or thrown around and
baggage to strike occupants in a
sudden stop or collision, resulting in
severe injury. After adjusting the
seatback at any time, even when there
are no other passengers, rock the
seatback to make sure it is locked in
place.
Do not modify or replace the front
seats.
Modifying or replacing the front seats
such as replacing the upholstery or
loosening any bolts is dangerous. The
front seats contain air bag components
essential to the supplemental restraint
system. Such modifications could
damage the supplemental restraint
system and result in serious injury.
Consult an Authorized Mazda Dealer if
there is any need to remove or reinstall
the front seats.
Adjust a seat only when the vehicle is
stopped.
If the seat is adjusted while the vehicle
is being driven, the seating posture
may become unstable and the seat
could move unexpectedly resulting in
injury.
Do not drive with damaged front
seats.
Driving with damaged front seats, such
as seat cushions torn or damaged
down to the urethane, is dangerous. A
collision, even one not strong enough
to inflate the air bags, could damage
the front seats which contain essential
air bag components. If there was a
subsequent collision, an air bag may
not deploy which could lead to
injuries. Always have an Authorized
Mazda Dealer inspect the front seats,
front seat belt pretensioners and air
bags after a collision.
Do not drive with either front seats
reclined.
Sitting in a reclined position while the
vehicle is moving is dangerous because
you do not get the full protection from
seat belts. During sudden braking or a
collision, you can slide under the lap
belt and suffer seriou s internal injuries.
For maximum protection, sit well back
and upright.
Do not place an object such as a
cushion between the seatback and
your back.
Putting an object such as a cushion
between the seatback and your back is
dangerous because you will be unable
to maintain a safe driving posture and
the seat belt cannot function at its full
capacity in a collision, which could
result in a serious accident, injury or
death.

Do not place objects under the seat.
The object could get stuck and cause
the seat to not be fixed securely, and
result in an accident.
Do not stack cargo higher than the
seatbacks.
Stacking luggage or other cargo higher
than the seatbacks is dangerous.
During sudden braking or a collision,
objects can fly around and become
projectiles that may hit and injure
passengers.
Make sure the adjustable components
of a seat are locked in place.
Adjustable seats and seatbacks that are
not securely locked are dangerous. In a
sudden stop or collision, the seat or
seatback could move, causing injury.
Make sure the adjustable components
of the seat are locked in place by
attempting to slide the seat forward
and backward and rocking the
seatback.
Make sure luggage and cargo is
secured before driving.
Not securing cargo while driving is
dangerous as it could move or be
crushed during sudden braking or a
collision and cause injury.
Additionally, if the air bags deploy, the
cargo may scatter which could result in
serious injury or death.
Never allow a passenger to sit or
stand on the folded seatback while
the vehicle is moving.Driving with a passenger on the folded
seatback is dangerous. Allowing a child
to sit up on the folded seatback while
the vehicle is moving is particularly
dangerous. In a sudden stop or even a
minor collision, a child not in a proper
seat or child-restraint system and seat
belt could be thrown forward, back or
even out of the vehicle resulting in
serious injuries or death. The child in
the baggage area could be thrown into
other occupants and cause serious
injury.
CAUTION
 When operating a seat, be careful
not to put your hands or fingers near
the moving parts of the seat or on
the side trim to prevent injury.
 When moving the seats, make sure
there is no cargo in the surrounding
area. If the cargo gets caught it could
damage the cargo.
 (Manual Seat)
When moving the seats forward and
rearward or returning a rear-reclined
seatback to its upright position,
make sure you hold onto the
seatback with your hand while
operating. If the seatback is not held,
the seat will move suddenly and
could cause injury.
 When inserting your hand under the
seat to clean the cabin or pick up
something you dropped under the
seat, be careful not to hurt yourself.
If you contact the moving parts and
surrounding parts around the seat
rail, seat frame, and the bottom of
the seat, it could result in injury.

How to Use the
Automatic Locking Mode
NOTE
Follow the child-restraint system
manufacturer's instructions carefully. If
you are not sure whether you have a
LATCH system or tether, check in the
child-restraint system manufacturer's
instructions and follow them
accordingly. Depending on the type of
child-restraint system, it may use
LATCH system instead of seat belts or if
the belt goes across the child's chest,
may recommend against using
automatic locking mode.
1. (Second-row seat)
Adjust the second-row seat
position using the following
procedure.
1. Fold the second-row seatback
forward.
2. Raise the second-row seatback until a click sound is heard and
it is locked in place.
2.(Second-row seat)
Adjust the angle of the second-row
seatback so that there is no gap
between the child-restraint system
and the second-row seatback.
3. Make sure the seatback is securely latched by pushing it back until it is
fully locked.
4. If a removable head restraint isequipped, remove it. However,
when installing a backless booster
seat, always install the vehicle head
restraint to the seat where the
backless booster seat is installed.
Refer to How to Use the Head
Restraints on page 3-48.
5. Secure the child-restraint system with the lap portion of the lap/
shoulder belt. See the
manufacturer's instructions on the
child-restraint system for belt
routing instructions.
6. 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.

7. Push the child-restraint systemfirmly into the vehicle seat. Be sure
the belt retracts as snugly as
possible. A clicking noise from the
retractor will be heard during
retraction if the system is in the
automatic locking mode. If the belt
does not lock the seat down tight,
repeat this step.
NOTE
Inspect this function before each
use of the child-restraint system.
You should not be able to pull the
shoulder belt out of the retractor
while the system is in the automatic
locking mode. When you remove
the child-restraint system, be sure
the belt fully retracts to return the
system to emergency locking mode
before occupants use the seat belts.
8. If your child-restraint system requires the use of a tether strap,
refer to the manufacturer's
instructions to hook and tighten the
tether strap.
If You Must Use the 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 shoulder
belt over the shoulder.
NEVER put a rear-facing 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 LATCH child-restraint
system cannot be secured in the front
passenger's seat and should be used in
the second-row 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.
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:

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 How to Use the Head
Restraints on page 3-48.
Do not allow a child or anyone to
lean over to or against the side
window of a vehicle with side and
curtain air bags.It is dangerous to allow anyone to lean
over to 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 to or
against the door could block the side
and curtain air bags and eliminate the
advantages of supplemental
protection. Because the front seats are
equipped with front air bags, the rear
seat is always a better location for
children. Take special care not to allow
a child to lean over to or against the
side window, even if the child is seated
in a child-restraint system.
