6-4 MAZDA MODEL CX-30 2021 Owners Manual

Do not operate a vehicle with a
damaged seat belt:
Using a damaged seat belt is
dangerous. An accident could damage
the belt webbing of the seat belt in
use. A damaged seat belt cannot
provide adequate protection in a
collision. Have an Authorized Mazda
Dealer inspect all seat belt systems in
use during an accident before they are
used again.
Have your seat belts changed
immediately if the pretensioner or
load limiter has been expended:
Always have an Authorized Mazda
Dealer immediately inspect the seat
belt pretensioners and air bags after
any collision. Like the air bags, the seat
belt pretensioners and load limiters
will only function once and must be
replaced after any collision that caused
them to deploy. A seat belt with an
expended pretensioner or load limiter
is still better than wearing no seat belt
at all; however, if the seat belt
pretensioners and load limiters are not
replaced, the risk of injury in a collision
will increase.
Positioning the Shoulder Portion of
the Seat Belt:
Improper positioning of the shoulder
portion of the seat belt is dangerous.
Always make sure the shoulder portion
of the seat belt is positioned across
your shoulder and near your neck, but
never under your arm, on your neck, or
on your upper arm.Positioning the Lap Portion of the Seat
Belt:
The lap portion of the seat belt worn
too high is dangerous. In a collision,
this would concentrate the impact
force directly on the abdominal area,
causing serious injury. Wear the lap
portion of the belt snugly and as low as
possible.

In a rollover crash, an unbelted person
is significantly more likely to die than a
person wearing a seat belt.

CAUTION
Belt retraction may become difficult if
the belts and rings are soiled, so try to
keep them clean. For more details
about cleaning the seat belts, refer to
"Seat Belt Maintenance" (page
6-49).

▼Turbocharger Information
(SKYACTIV-G
2.5T)
CAUTION

After driving at freeway speeds or up
a long hill, idle the engine at least 30
seconds before stopping it.
Otherwise, the turbocharger could
be damaged.
 Racing or over-revving the engine,
particularly after it's just been
started, can damage the
turbocharger.
 To protect the engine from damage,
the engine is designed so that it
cannot be raced just after starting it
in extremely cold weather.
The turbocharger greatly enhances
engine power. Its advanced design
provides improved operation and
requires minimum maintenance.

To get the most from it, observe the
following.
1. Change engine oil and filter according to Scheduled
Maintenance.
Refer to Scheduled Maintenance
(U.S.A. and Puerto Rico) on page
6-4.
Refer to Scheduled Maintenance

Your vehicle is equipped with front
side radar sensor. The following
systems also use the front side radar
sensor.
Front Cross Traffic Alert (FCTA)
The front side radar sensor function by
detecting the radio waves reflected off
a vehicle approaching from the front or
an obstruction sent from the radar
sensor.
1. Front side radar sensor

The front side radar sensors are
installed inside the front bumper, one
on each side.
Always keep the surface of the front
bumper near the front side radar
sensors clean so that they operate
normally. Also, do not apply items such
as stickers.
Refer to Exterior Care on page 6-43.
CAUTION
If the front bumper receives a severe
impact, the system may no longer
operate normally. Stop the system

deformed.
Snow, ice or mud adheres to the
front side radar sensor on the front
bumper.
Under bad weather conditions
such as rain, snow and fog.
Under the following conditions, the
front side radar sensor cannot detect
target objects or it may be difficult to
detect them.
Small motorcycles, bicycles,
pedestrians, animals, shopping
carts, and stationary objects on a
road or a road side.
Vehicle shapes which do not
reflect radar waves well such as
empty trailers with a low vehicle
height and sports cars.
Vehicles are shipped with the
direction of the front side radar
sensor adjusted for each vehicle to a
loaded vehicle condition so that the
front side radar sensor detect
approaching vehicles correctly. If the
direction of the front side radar
sensor has deviated for some reason,
