child lock MAZDA MODEL 3 HATCHBACK 2020 (in English) User Guide

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-re straint 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.
*1 ISOFIX (Mexico)/LATCH (Except Mexico)
Installation on rear outboard seats
1. First, adjust the front seat to allow clearance between the child-restraint
system and the front seat.
Refer to Adjusting the Driver's Seat on
page 2-5.
Refer to Adjusting the Front
Passenger's Seat on page 2-13.
2. Make sure the seatback is securely
latched by pushing it back until it is
fully locked.

Door Locks
▼Door Locks
WA R N I N G
Always take all children and pets with you
or leave a responsible person with them:
Leaving a child or a pet unattended in a
parked vehicle is dangerous. In hot
weather, temperatures inside a vehicle can
become high enough to cause brain
damage or even death.
Do not leave the key in your vehicle with
children and keep them in a place where
your children will not find or play with
them:
Leaving children in a vehicle with the key is
dangerous. This could result in someone
being badly injured or even killed.
Keep all doors locked when driving:
Unlocked doors in a moving vehicle are
dangerous. Passengers can fall out if a
door is accidentally opened and can more
easily be thrown out in an accident.
Always close all the windows and
moonroof, lock the doors, fuel-filler lid, and
liftgate and take the key with you when
leaving your vehicle unattended:
Leaving your vehicle unlocked is dangerous
as children could lock themselves in a hot
vehicle, which could result in death. Also, a
vehicle left unlocked becomes an easy
target for thieves and intruders.
After closing the doors and the liftgate/
trunk lid, always verify that they are
securely closed:
Doors and the liftgate/trunk lid not
securely closed are dangerous, if the vehicle
is driven with a door and the liftgate/trunk
lid not securely closed, the door and the
liftgate/trunk lid could open unexpectedly
resulting in an accident.
Always confirm the safety around the
vehicle before opening a door and the
liftgate/trunk lid:
Suddenly opening a door and the liftgate/
trunk lid is dangerous. A passing vehicle or
a pedestrian could be hit and cause an
accident.
CAUTION

Always confirm the conditions around
the vehicle before opening/closing the
doors and the liftgate/trunk lid and use
caution during strong winds or when
parked on an incline. Not being aware of
the conditions around the vehicle is
dangerous because fingers could get
caught in the door and the liftgate/trunk
lid or a passing pedestrian could be hit,
resulting in an unexpected accident or
injury.
NOTE
Always stop the engine and lock the
doors. In addition, to prevent theft of
valuables, do not leave them inside the
cabin.

Inside Trunk Release
Lever (4-door)
*
▼Inside Trunk Release Lever
Your vehicle is equipped with an inside
trunk release lever that provides a means
of escape for children and adults in the
event they become locked inside the trunk.

No matter how careful adults might be
with keys and locking their cars, parents
should be aware that children may be
tempted to play around vehicles and use
the trunk as a hiding place.

Adults are advised to familiarize
themselves with the
operation and location
of the inside trunk release lever so that all
children can be told about it in an
appropriate way, keeping in mind that
most vehicles do not have such levers.
WA R N I N G
Close the trunk lid, be sure the seat backs
are latched and do not allow children to
play inside the vehicle:
Leaving the trunk lid open or leaving
children in the vehicle with the keys is
dangerous. Children could open the trunk
lid and climb inside resulting in possible
injury or death from heat exposure.

Always keep the car from being a tempting
place to play by latching the rear seats,
doors and the trunk, and keeping the keys
where children can not play with them:
Leaving children or animals unattended in
a parked vehicle is dangerous. Babies left
sleeping and children who lock themselves
in cars or trunks can die very quickly from
heat prostration. Do not leave your
children or pets alone in a car at any time.
Do not leave the car, the rear folding seats
or the trunk unlocked.
▼Opening the Trunk Lid from the
Inside
Slide the inside trunk release lever in the
direction of the arrow. The lever is made
of material that will glow for hours in the
darkness of the trunk following a brief
exposure to ambient light.

The inside trunk release lever is located on
the inside of the trunk lid.

Power Windows
▼Power Windows
The windows can be opened/closed by
operating the power window switches.
WA R N I N G
Make sure the opening is clear before
closing a window:
Closing a power window is dangerous. A
person's hands, head, or even neck could
be caught by the window and result in
serious injury or even death. This warning
applies especially to children.
Never allow children to play with power
window switches:
Power window switches that are not locked
with the power window lock switch would
allow children to operate power windows
unintentionally, which could result in
serious injury if a child's hands, head or
neck becomes caught by the window.
Make sure nothing bloc ks the window just
before it reaches the fully closed position or
while fully holding up the power window
switch:
Blocking the power window just before it
reaches the fully closed position or while
fully holding up the power window switch
is dangerous.
In this case, the jam-safe function may not
prevent the window from closing all the
way. If fingers are caught, serious injuries
could occur.
Do not let a child put a hand or head out of
the window while driving the vehicle:
If the person's hand or head hits something
outside the vehicle, or sudden braking is
applied, it could result in serious injury or
death.
NOTE
When driving with only 1 of the rear
windows open, your ears might experience
a resonating sound. However, this does not
indicate a problem. The sound can be
reduced by slightly opening a front
window or by changing the size of the rear
window opening.

The moonroof can be opened or closed
when operating the overhead tilt/slide
switch at the front seats.
WA R N I N G
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.
 Do not open or close the moonroof
forcefully during freezing temperatures
