Front Seat Belt
Pretensioner and Load Limiting Systems
▼Front Seat Belt
Pretensioner and
Load Limiting Systems
For optimum protection, the driver and
front passenger seat belts are equipped
with pretensioner and load limiting
systems. For both these systems to work
properly you must wear the seat belt
properly.

Pretensioners:
When a collision is detected, the
pretensioners deploy simultaneously with
the air bags.
For vehicles with t he front passenger
occupant classification system, the
pretensioners deploy simultaneously with
the air bags when a roll-over is also
detected.
For deployment details, refer to the SRS
Air Bag Deployment Criteria (page
2-68).

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.
A system malfunction or operation
conditions are indicated by a warning.
Refer to Air Bag/Front Seat Belt
Pretensioner System Warning Indication/
Warning Light on page 7-32.
Refer to Air Bag/Front Seat Belt
Pretensioner System Warning Beep on
page 7-41.
(With Front Passenger Occupant
Classification System)
In addition, the pretensioner system for the
front passenger, like the front and side
passenger air bag, is designed to only
deploy in accordance with the total seated
weight on the front passenger seat.
For details, refer to the front passenger
seat weight sensors (page 2-72).

Load limiter:
The load limiting system releases belt
webbing in a controlled manner to reduce
belt force on the occupant's chest. While
the most severe load on a seat belt occurs
in frontal collisions, th e load limiter has an
automatic mechanical function and can
activate in any accident mode with
sufficient occupant movement.
Even if the pretensioners have not fired,
the load limiting function must be checked
by an Authorized Mazda Dealer.
WA R N I N G
Wear seat belts only as recommended in
this owner's manual:
Incorrect positioning of the seat belts is
dangerous. Without pr oper positioning, the
pretensioner and load limiting systems
cannot provide adequate protection in an
accident and this could result in serious
injury. For more deta ils about wearing seat
belts, refer to "Fastening the Seat Belt"
(page 2-26).

Child-RestraintPrecautions
▼ Child-Restraint Precautions
Mazda strongly urges the use of
child-restraint system
s for children small
enough to use them.

You are required by law to use a
child-restraint system for children in the
U.S. and Canada.
Check your local and state or provincial
laws for specific requirements regarding
the safety of childr en riding in your
vehicle.

Whatever child-rest raint system you
consider, please pick the appropriate one
for the age and size of the child, obey the
law and follow the i nstructions that come
with the individual ch ild-restraint system.

A child who has outgrown child-restraint
systems should sit in the rear and use seat
belts, both lap an d shoulder. If the
shoulder belt crosses the neck or face,
move the child closer to the center of the
vehicle in the outboard seats, and towards
the buckle on the right if the child is
seated on the center seat.

Statistics confirm that the rear seat is the
best place for all children up to 12 years of
age, and more so with a supplemental
restraint system (air bags).

A rear-facing child-restraint system should
NEVER be used on the front seat with the
air bag system activated. The front
passenger's seat is also the least preferred
seat for other child-restraint systems.

(With Front Passenger Occupant
Classification System)
To reduce the chance of injuries caused by
deployment of the front passenger air bag,
the front passenger seat weight sensors
occupant classification sensor works as a
part of the supplementa l restraint system.
This system deactivates the front
passenger front and side air bags and knee
air bags, and also the front passenger seat
belt pretensioner system when the front
passenger air bag deactivation indicator
light illuminates.

When an infant or small child sits on the
front passenger seat, the system shuts off
the front passenger front and side air bags
and knee air bags, and seat belt
pretensioner system, so make sure the
front passenger air bag deactivation
indicator light illuminates.

Even if the front passenger air bag is shut
off, Mazda strongly recommends that
children be prope rly restrained and
child-restraint systems of all kinds are
properly secured on the rear seats which
are the best place for children.

For more details, refer to "Front passenger
seat weight sensors" (page 2-72).

(Mexico)
NEVER use a rearward facing child restraint
on a seat protected by an ACTIVE AIRBAG in
front of it, DEATH or SERIOUS INJURY to the
CHILD can occur.
Vehicles with a front passenger air bag
have the following warning label. The
warning label reminds you not to put a
rear-facing child-restraint system on the
front passenger seat at any time.

(Except Mexico)
Vehicles with a front passenger air bag
have the following warning label. The
warning label reminds you not to put a
rear-facing child-restraint system on the
front passenger seat at any time.
Do not install a front-facing child-restraint
system on the front passenger seat unless it
is unavoidable:
In a collision, the force of a deploying air
bag could cause serious injury or death to
the child. If installing a front-facing
child-restraint system on the front
passenger seat is unavoidable, move the
front passenger seat as far back as
possible.
Seating a child in a child-restraint system
on the front passenger seat is dangerous
under certain conditions (With Front
Passenger Occupant Classification System):
Your vehicle is equipped with front
passenger seat weight sensors. Even with
the front passenger seat weight sensors, if
you must use the front passenger seat to
seat a child, using a child-restraint system
on the front passenger seat under the
following conditions increases the danger
of the front passenger air bag deploying
and could result in serious injury or death
to the child.
The front passenger air bag deactivation
indicator light does not illuminate when
seating a child in the child-restraint
system.

Installing Child-RestraintSystems
▼Installing Child-Restraint Systems
Accident statistics reveal that a child is
safer in the rear seat
. The front passenger's
seat is clearly the worst choice for any
child under 12, and with rear-facing
child-restraint system s it is clearly unsafe
due to air bags.

NOTE
Even if your vehicle is equipped with front
passenger occupant classification sensor
(page 2-72), which automatically
deactivates the front passenger air bag, a
rear seat is the safest place for a child of
any age or size.

Some child-restraint systems now come
with tethers and t herefore must be
installed on the seats that take tethers to be
effective. In your Mazda, tethered
child-restraint systems can only be
accommodated in the three positions on
the rear seat.

Some child-restraint systems also employ
specially designed ISOFIX/LATCH
*1
attachments; refer to "Using ISOFIX
Lower Anchor (Mexico)/Using LATCH
Lower Anchor (Except Mexico)" (page
2-50).
*1 ISOFIX (Mexico)/LATCH (Except Mexico)
WA R N I N G
Tethered Child-Restraint Systems Work
Only on Tether-Equipped Rear Seats:
Installation of a tether equipped
child-restraint system in the front
passenger's seat defeats the safety design
of the system and will result in an increased
chance of serious injury if the
child-restraint system goes forward
without benefit of being tethered.
Place tether equipped child-restraint
systems where there are tether anchors.
▼Anchor Bracket
Anchor brackets for securing
child-restraint systems are equipped in the
vehicle. Locate each anchor position using
the illustration.
To install a child-restraint system, remove
the head restraint. Always follow the
instruction manual accompanying the
child-restraint system.

Anchor bracket location
Use the indicated anchor bracket locations
when installing a ch
ild-restraint system
equipped with a tether.

▼If You Must Use th
e 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 shou lder belt over the
shoulder.
NEVER put a rear-fac ing 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 ISOFIX/LATCH
*1
child-restraint system cannot be secured in
the front passenger's seat and should be
used in the rear 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.
*1 ISOFIX (Mexico)/LATCH (Except Mexico)
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:
Mazda vehicles equipped with curtain
air bag will have an "SRS AIRBAG"
marking on the window pillars along the
roof edge.
WA R N I N G
Always move the front passenger seat as
far back as possible if installing a
front-facing child-restraint system on it is
unavoidable:
As your vehicle has front air bags and
doubly so because your vehicle has side air
bags, a front-facing child-restraint system
should be put on the front passenger seat
only when it is unavoidable.
Even if the front passenger air bag
deactivation indicator light illuminates,
always move the seat as far back as
possible, because the force of a deploying
air bag could cause serious injury or death
to the child.
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 in a moderate collision, 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. Even though you may
feel assured that the front passenger air
bag will not deploy based on the fact that
the front passenger air bag deactivation
indicator light illuminates, you should not
use a rear-facing child-restraint system in
the front seat.

Supplemental Restraint
System (SRS) Precautions
▼ Supplemental Restraint System
(SRS) Precautions
The front and side supplemental restraint
systems (SRS) include
different types of
air bags. Please verify the different types
of air bags which are equipped on your
vehicle by locating the “SRS AIRBAG”
location in dicators. These indicators are
visible in the area where the air bags are
installed.
The air bags are insta lled in the following
locations:

The steering wheel hub (driver air bag)
The front passenger dashboard (front
passenger air bag)
Under the instrument panel (driver and
front passenger
* knee air bags)
The outboard sides of the front
seatbacks (side air bags)
The front and rear window pillars, and
the roof edge along both sides (curtain
air bags)

Vehicles with the Front Passenger
Occupant Classification System have a
sensor which detects an impending
roll-over accident.

The air bag supplemental restraint systems
are designed to provide supplemental
protection in certain situations so seat belts
are always important in the following
ways:

Without seat belt usage, the air bags
cannot provide adequate protection during
an accident. Seat belt usage is necessary
to:
Keep the occupant from being thrown
into an inflating air bag.
Reduce the possibility of injuries during
an accident that is not designed for air
bag inflation, such as rear impact.
Reduce the possibility of injuries in
frontal, near frontal or side collisions or
roll-over accidents that are not severe
enough to activate the air bags.
Reduce the possibility of being thrown
from your vehicle.
Reduce the possibility of injuries to
lower body and legs during an accident
because the air bags provide no
protection to these p arts of the body.
Hold the driver in a position which
allows better control of the vehicle.
