Seat Precautions
▼Seat Precautions
WA R N I N G
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.
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.
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 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. Cons ult an Authorized
Mazda Dealer if there is any need to
remove or reinstall the front seats.
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
serious 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 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.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.
Never give the car keys to children and do
not allow them to play in the vehicle (4–
Door):
Playing with the folding rear seats is
dangerous. Once the seatbacks are back
up, a child in the trunk would not be able to
get out the way they had entered. If you
have small children, keep the seatbacks
locked.
Always leave your car locked and keep the
car keys safely away from children (4–
Door):
Leaving your car unlocked or the keys in
reach of children is dangerous. Children
who find their way into the trunk through
an unlocked rear seatback or an open
trunk can become accidentally locked in
the trunk. This could result in death or
brain damage from heat prostration,
particularly in the summer. Always lock the
doors and the trunk, and as an added
measure, keep the rear seatbacks locked,
whether you have children in your home or
not.

Rear Seat
▼Split Folding the Seatbacks
By lowering the rear seatbacks the luggage
compartment space can be expanded.
WA R N I N G
Do not drive the vehicle with occupants on
folded down seatbacks or in the luggage
compartment.
Putting occupants in the luggage
compartment is dangerous because seat
belts cannot be fastened which could lead
to serious injury or death during sudden
braking or a collision.
Do not allow children to play inside the
vehicle with the seatbacks lowered.
Allowing children to play in the vehicle
with the seatbacks folded down is
dangerous. If a child enters the luggage
compartment and the seatbacks were
raised back up, the child may become
trapped in the luggage compartment
which could lead to an accident.
Tightly secure cargo in the luggage
compartment when it is transported with
the seatbacks folded down.
Driving without tightly securing cargo and
luggage is dangerous as it could move and
become an obstruction to driving during
emergency braking or
a collision resulting
in an unexpected accident.
When transporting cargo, do not allow the
cargo to exceed the height of the
seatbacks.
Transporting cargo stacked higher than
the seatbacks is dangerous as visibility to
the rear and sides of the vehicle is reduced
which could interfere with driving
operations and lead to an accident.
Lowering the seatbacks
CAUTION
(5–Door)
When folding the seatback forward,
always support the seatback with your
hand. If it is not supported by a hand,
fingers or the hand pressing the push
knob could be injured.
Check the position of a front seat before
folding a rear seatback.
Depending on the position of a front
seat, it may not be possible to fold a rear
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. Lower or remove the
head restraint on the rear outboard seat
if necessary.

WA R N I N G
Be careful when using the seat warmer:
The heat from the seat warmer may be too
hot for the following people and could
cause a low-temperature burn.
Infants, small children, elderly people,
and physically challenged people
People with delicate skin
People who are excessively fatigued
People who are intoxicated
People who have taken sleep-inducing
medicine such as sleeping pills or cold
medicine
Do not use the seat warmer with anything
having high moisture-retention ability such
as a blanket or cushion on the seat:
The seat may be heated excessively and
cause a low-temperature burn.
Do not use the seat warmer even when
taking a short nap in the vehicle:
The seat may be heated excessively and
cause a low-temperature burn.
Do not place heavy objects with sharp
projections on the seat, or insert needles or
pins into it:
This could cause the seat to become
excessively heated and result in injury from
a minor burn.
CAUTION
Do not use organic solvents to clean the
seat. It may damage the seat surface and
the heater.

Seat Belt Precautions
▼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.
(Mexico)
All the seats have lap/shoulder belts.
These belts have retractors 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 du ring a collision.
(Except Mexico)
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.
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 the 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.

▼Pregnant Women and Persons with
Serious Medical Conditions
Pregnant women should always wear seat
belts. Ask your doctor for specific
recommendations.
The lap belt should be worn SNUGLY
AND AS LOW AS POSSIBLE OVER
THE HIPS.
The shoulder belt should be worn across
your shoulder properly, but never across
the stomach area.
Persons with serious medical conditions
also should wear seat belts. Check with
your doctor for any
special instructions
regarding specific medical conditions.
▼ Emergency Locking Mode
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 a
nd 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.
(Seat Belt with Automatic Locking
Mode)
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 to o 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 Lockin
g Mode (Except
Mexico)
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 2-44).
