Things to Be ObservedWhile Driving
WARNING
Never stop the hybrid system when
going down a hill.
Stopping the hybrid system when
going down a hill is dangerous. This
causes the loss of power steering and
power brake control, and may cause
damage to the drivetrain. Any loss of
steering or braking control could cause
an accident.
Be extremely careful if it is necessary
to downshift on slippery surfaces:
Downshifting into lower gear while
driving on slippery surfaces is
dangerous. The sudden change in tire
speed could cause the tires to skid.
This could lead to loss of vehicle
control and an accident.
Avoid sharp turns, excessive speed
and abrupt maneuvers when driving
this vehicle:
Sharp turns, excessive speed and
abrupt maneuvering of this vehicle are
dangerous as it could result in the
increased risk of loss of vehicle control,
vehicle roll-over, personal injury or
death.
This vehicle has a higher center of
gravity. Vehicles with a higher center of
gravity such as util ity vehicles handle
differently than vehicles with a lower
center of gravity.
Utility vehicles are not designed for
cornering at high speeds any more
than low profile sports cars are
designed to perfo rm satisfactorily
under off-road conditions.
In addition, utility vehicles have a
significantly higher rollover rate than
other types of vehicles.
In a rollover crash, an unbelted person
is significantly more likely to die than a
person wearing a seat belt.
Dry off brakes that have become wet
by driving slowly, releasing the
accelerator pedal and lightly applying
the brakes several times until the
brake performance returns to normal.
Driving with wet brakes is dangerous.
Increased stopping distance or the
vehicle pulling to one side when
braking could result in a serious
accident. Light braking will indicate
whether the brakes have been
affected.
CAUTION
 Do not drive the vehicle on flooded
roads as it could cause short
circuiting of electrical/electronic
parts, or engine damage or stalling
from water absorption. If the vehicle
has been immersed in water, consult
an Authorized Mazda Dealer.

SRS Air Bags
If the vehicle receives a strong impact
from the front or side of the vehicle
when the vehicle power is switched
ON, the air bags inflate
instantaneously and lessen the impact
on the head or chest of the driver or
passenger.
The SRS air bag system protects
occupants together with the seat belts
and they are not a substitute for the
seat belts.
There are 5 types of air bags.
Vehicles with the Driver and 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
roll-over or 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 parts
of the body.
Driver's front air bag
The driver's front air bag is stored in
the center of the steering wheel.
When air bag crash sensors detect a
frontal impact of greater than
moderate force, the driver's air bag
inflates quickly helping to reduce injury
mainly to the driver's head or chest
caused by directly hitting the steering
wheel.
The inflation of the driver's dual-stage
air bag is controlled in two energy
stages depending on the driver's seat
position. The driver's seat slide
position sensor is located under the
driver's 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'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.

Curtain air bags
The curtain air bags are stored in the
front pillars, side edges of the roof, and
the rear pillars. The curtain air bag on
the side where the vehicle is hit
deploys regardless of whether or not
an occupant is seated.
When the air bag crash sensors detect
a side impact of greater than moderate
force, the curtain air bag inflates
quickly and helps to reduce injury
mainly to the driver and front and rear
outboard passengers' heads caused by
directly hitting interior parts such as a
door or window.
In a side impact:
Greater than moderate impact to one
side of the vehicle will cause the
curtain air bag on that side only to
inflate.
In a roll-over:
In response to a vehicle roll-over, both
curtain air bags inflate.
Both curtain air bags will deploy after
the roll-over accident is detected.
Constant Monitoring
The following components of the air
bag systems are monitored by a
diagnostic system:

Front air bag sensorsCrash sensors, and diagnostic
module (SAS unit)
Side crash sensorsAir bag modulesSeat belt pretensionersAir bag/Seat belt pretensioner
system warning light
Related wiringDriver seat slide position sensorFront Passenger occupant classification sensor
Front Passenger occupantclassification module
Front passenger air bag deactivation
indicator light
Front passenger seat belt buckle
switch

The diagnostic module continuously
monitors the system's readiness. This
begins when the vehicle power is
switched ON and continues while the
vehicle is being driven.

Do not operate a vehicle with
damaged air bag/seat belt
pretensioner system components.
Expended or damaged air bag/seat
belt pretensioner system components
must be replaced after any collision
which caused them to deploy or
damage them. Only a trained
Authorized Mazda Dealer can fully
evaluate these systems to see that they
will work in any subsequent accident.
Driving with an expended or damaged
air bag or pretensioner unit will not
afford you the necessary protection in
the event of any subsequent accident
which could result in serious injury or
death.
Do not remove interior air bag parts.
Removing any components such as the
front seats, front dashboard, the
steering wheel or parts on the front
and rear window pillars and along the
roof edge, containing air bag parts or
sensors is dangerous. These parts
contain essential air bag components.
The air bag could accidentally activate
and cause serious injuries. Always have
an Authorized Mazda Dealer remove
these parts.
Properly dispose of the air bag
system.
Improper disposal of an air bag or a
vehicle with live air bags in it can be
extremely dangerous. Unless all safety
procedures are followed, injury could
result. Have an Authorized Mazda
Dealer safely dispose of the air bag
system or scrap an air bag equipped
vehicle.

NOTE
If it becomes necessary to have the components or wiring system for the
supplementary restraint system modified to accommodate a person with certain
medical conditions in accordance with a certified physician, contact an Authorized
Mazda Dealer, refer to “Customer Assistance (U.S.A.)” (page 10-4).
When an air bag deploys, a loud inflation noise can be heard and some smoke will
be released. Neither is likely to cause injury, however, the texture of the air bags
may cause light skin injuries on body parts not covered with clothing through
friction.
Should you sell your Mazda, we urge you to tell the new owner of its air bag
systems and that familiarization with all instructions about them, from the
Owner's Manual, is important.
This highly-visible label is displayed which warns against the use of a rear-facing
child-restraint system on the front passenger seat.

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.

Child is seated on child restraint in
second-row seat
Never put your hands and fingers
around the moving parts of the seat
and armrest.
Putting your hands and
fingers around
the moving parts of the seat and
armrest is dangerous as they could get
injured.
Never position the shoulder portion
of a seat belt over the armrest.
Positioning the shoulder portion of a
second-row seat belt over the armrest
is dangerous as it cannot provide
adequate protection in a collision and
could result in serious injuries.
Do not recline a second-row seatback
when the third-row seat is occupied.
Reclining the second-row seatback
when the third-row seat is occupied is
dangerous. Because the clearance in
the third-row seat is limited, occupants
in the third-row seat could be hurt
seriously on a reclined second-row
seatback.
CAUTION
 When operating the seat, be careful
not to get your hand or foot caught,
or hit your head.
 Before moving the second-row seat,
make sure that the head restraint is
at the lowest position. If the
second-row seat is folded forward
while the head restraint is pulled up,
there will not be enough space for
getting in or out of the vehicle which
could cause an occupant to trip and
fall resulting in injury.
 Check the position of a front seat
before folding a second-row
seatback.
Depending on the position of a front
seat, it may not be possible to fold a
second-row 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. Remove the head
restraint on the second-row
outboard seat if necessary.
