Essential Safety Equipment
SRS Air Bags
WARNING
Do not place luggage or other objects under the front seats:
Placing luggage or other objects under the front seats is dangerous. The components
essential to the supplementary restraint system could be damaged, and in the event of
a side collision, the appropriate air bags may not deploy, which could result in death
or serious injury. To prevent damage to the components essential to the supplementary
restraint system, do not place luggage or other objects under the front seats.
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 expert repairer, we recommend an Authorised Mazda Repairer 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 instrument panel, 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
Authorised Mazda Repairer 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
expert repairer, we recommend an Authorised Mazda Repairer safely dispose of the air
bag system or scrap an air bag equipped vehicle.

Before Driving
Security System
*Some models.
Theft-Deterrent System *
If the theft-deterrent system detects an
inappropriate entry into the vehicle or
the intrusion sensor detects movement
in the vehicle which could result in the
vehicle (with the intrusion sensor) or its
contents being stolen, the alarm alerts the
surrounding area of an abnormality by
sounding the siren/horn and À ashing the
hazard warning lights.
The system will not function unless it's
properly armed. So when you leave the
vehicle, follow the arming procedure
correctly.
Intrusion sensor
*
The intrusion sensor uses ultrasonic waves
to detect movement inside the vehicle and
to raise an alert of an intrusion into the
vehicle.
The intrusion sensor detects certain kinds
of movement inside the vehicle, however,
it may also respond to phenomenon
outside the vehicle such as vibrations, loud
noise, wind, and air currents.
CAUTION
In order for the intrusion sensor to
operate appropriately, be aware of the
following:
Do not hang clothing or objects from
a head restraint or a coat hook.
Return the extension sunvisors to
their original positions.
Do not blind the intrusion sensor by
covering it or placing objects over it.
Do not allow the intrusion sensor to
get soiled or wipe it with a liquid.
Do not shock or cause an impact to
the intrusion sensor or the intrusion
sensor bezel.
Do not install seats that are not
Mazda genuine products.
To prevent obstruction of intrusion
sensor, do not place objects or cargo
near the intrusion sensor that are
higher than the head restraints.
