Seat Precautions
▼Seat Precautions
WARNING
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.
Consult 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.
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 passe nger 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.
