Front passenger's front air bag
The front passenger's front air bag is
stored in the dashboard.
Driver and Front Passenger Knee Air
Bags
The knee air bag is stored under the
dashboard.
If the air bag crash sensors receive a
frontal impact of greater than
moderate force, the knee air bags
deploy immediately to reduce impact
to the driver and front passenger's
legs.
Side air bags
There are 2 types of side air bags
including the side air bags for the
driver and front passenger and rear
passengers.
Front seat side air bags
The front seat side air bags are installed
in the outboard sides of the driver and
front passenger's 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.
In addition, the front passenger side air
bag is designed to only deploy in
accordance with the total seated
weight on the front passenger seat.
Rear seat side air bags
The rear seat side air bags are installed
in the outboard sides of the rear
seatbacks. The rear seat side air bags
on the side where the vehicle is hit
deploy regardless of whether or not an
occupant is seated.

Use of any tire or wheel other than
those specified for your Mazda (page
10-71) 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.
 Do not overload your vehicle:
Overloading your vehicle is
dangerous as it could prevent the air
bag crash sensor system from
accurately detecting a collision or
roll-over accident resulting in
incorrect or unexpected air bag
deployment and the possibility of
serious injuries. The gross axle
weight rating (GAWR) and the gross
vehicle weight rating (GVWR) for
your vehicle are on the Motor
Vehicle Safety Standard Label on the
driver's door fram e. Do not exceed
these ratings.
Do not modify a front door or leave
any damage unrepaired. Always have
an Authorized Mazda Dealer inspect a
damaged front door.
Modifying a front door or leaving any
damage unrepaired is dangerous. Each
front door has a side crash sensor as a
component of the supplemental
restraint system. If holes are drilled in a
front door, a door speaker is left
removed, or a damaged door is left
unrepaired, the sensor could be
adversely affected causing it to not
detect the pressure of an impact
correctly during a si de collision. If a
sensor does not detect a side impact
correctly, the side and curtain air bags
and the front seat belt pretensioner
may not operate norm ally which could
result in serious injury to occupants.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 and rear seats
equipped with in-seat side air bags. It
is important to protect the air bag
wiring and connecti ons 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 and rear seats.
Placing luggage or other objects under
the front or rear seats equipped with
in-seat side air bags 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.

Driver and Front
Passenger Occupant
Classification System
The Driver and Front Passenger
Occupant
Classification System
reduces the possibility of injury due to
the deployment of the driver air bag
and the front passenger airbag by
determining the deployment energy of
the driver air bag and whether or not
the front passenger airbag should be
deployed based on the driver seat slide
position sensor and the front
passenger seat weight sensor.
Driver Seat Slide Position Sensor
Your vehicle is equipped with a driver
seat slide position sensor as a part of
the supplemental restraint system. The
sensor is located under the driver 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 Seat Weight Sensor
Your vehicle is equipped with a front
passenger seat weight sensors as a part
of the supplemental restraint system.
These sensors are located under both
of the front passenger seat rails. These
sensors determine the total seated
weight on the front passenger seat and
monitor the seat belt buckle for the
front passenger seat. The SAS unit is
designed to prevent the front
passenger front and side air bags and
knee air bags, and seat belt
pretensioner system from deploying if
the front passenger air bag
deactivation indicator light illuminates.
To reduce the chance of injuries
caused by deployment of the front
passenger air bag, the system
deactivates the front passenger front
and side air bags and knee air bags,
and also the seat belt pretensioner
system when the front passenger air
bag deactivation indicator light
illuminates.

Warnings and Cautionsfor Using the Front
Pa s s e n g e r O cc u p a n t
Classification System
WARNING
Do not decrease the total seated
weight on the front passenger seat.
When an adult or large child sits on the
front passenger seat, decreasing the
total seated weight on the front
passenger seat required for air bag
deployment is dangerous. The front
passenger seat weight sensors will
detect the reduced total seated weight
condition and the front passenger front
and side air bags and knee air bags,
and the seat belt pretensioner system
will not deploy during an accident. The
front passenger will not have the
supplementary protection of the air
bag, which could result in serious
injury. Decreasing the total seated
weight on the front passenger seat
could result in an air bag not deploying
under the following conditions, for
example.

A front passenger is seated as shown
in the following figure.
A rear passenger pushes up on the
front passenger seat with their feet.
 Luggage or other items placed under
the front passenger seat or between
the front passenger seat and driver
seat that push up the front passenger
seat bottom.

Any accessories which might
decrease the total seated weight on
the front passenger seat are attached
to the front passenger seat.
The front passenger front and side air
bags and knee air bags, and the seat
belt pretensioner system will
deactivate if the front passenger air
bag deactivation indicator light
illuminates.

Do not increase the total seated
weight on the front passenger seat.
When an infant or small child sits on
the front passenger seat, increasing the
total seated weight on the front
passenger seat is dangerous. The front
passenger seat weight sensors will
detect the increased total seated
weight, which could result in the
unexpected deployment of the front
passenger front and side air bags and
knee air bags, and seat belt
pretensioner system in an accident and
may cause serious injury. Increasing the
total seated weight on the front
passenger seat could result in the front
passenger front and side air bags and
knee air bags, and seat belt
pretensioner system deployment in an
accident under the following
conditions, for example.
 Luggage or other items are placed on
the seat with the child in the
child-restraint system.
 A rear passenger or luggage push or
pull down on the front passenger
seatback.
 A rear passenger steps on the front
passenger seat rails with their feet.
 Luggage or other items are placed on
the seatback or hung on the head
restraint.Heavy items are placed in the
seatback map pocket.
 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.
 Any accessories which might increase
the total seated weight on the front
passenger seat are attached to the
front passenger seat.
CAUTION
To assure proper deployment of the
front air bag and to prevent damage
to the sensors in the front seat
bottoms.
 Do not place sharp objects on the
front seat bottoms or leave heavy
luggage on them.
 Do not spill any liquids on the
front seats or under the front seats.
 To allow the sensors to function
properly, always perform the
following.
 Adjust the front seats as far back as
possible and always sit upright
against the seatbacks with seat
belts worn properly.
 If you place your child on the front
passenger seat, secure the
child-restraint system properly and
slide the front passenger seat as far
back as possible (page 3-30).
