Seat Precautions
WA R N I N G
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 a llow 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 se at 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 injuri es. For maximum protection, sit well back and
upright.
Do not recline a second-row seatback when the third-row seat is occupied:
Reclining the second-row seatback when the thir d-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.
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, wh ich 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.
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 vehi cle 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 of
the seat rail or seat frame, it could result in injury.
NOTE
When returning a rear seat to its original position, place the seat belt in its normal
position. Verify that the seat belt pulls out and retracts.
(Power Seat)
The seat-bottom power adjustment is operated by motors. Avoid extended operation
because excessive use can damage the motors.
To prevent the battery from running down, avoid using the power adjustment when the
engine is stopped. The adjuster uses a large amount of electrical power.
Do not use the switch to make more than one adjustment at a time.

Folding the seatbacks
WA R N I N G
Make sure the adjustable components of a
second-row seat are locked after folding
down the seatback:
A second-row seat that is not securely
locked is dangerous. In a sudden stop or
collision, the second-row seat could move,
causing injury.
After folding down the seatback of a
second-row seat, make
sure the adjustable
components of the seat are locked in place
by attempting to slide the seat forward and
backward.
CAUTION
When folding the seatback forward,
always support the seatback with your
hand. If it is not supported by a hand,
fingers or the hand raising the lever
could be injured.
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.

space from the rear of the vehicle to the
back of the front seats, fold the second-row
and third-row seats (page 2-26).
To return the seatback to its upright
position:
WA R N I N G
When returning a seatback to its upright
position, make sure the 3-point seat belt is
not caught in the seatback and the 3-point
seat belt is not twisted:
If the seat belt is used while it is twisted and
caught in the seatback, the seat belt
cannot function at its full capacity, which
could cause serious injury or death.
1. Make sure that the seat belt is not stuckin the second-row seat and it is not
twisted, then raise the seatback while
preventing the seat belt from being
caught in the seatback.
2. Press the seatback rearward and lock it
in place. After returning the seatback

attempting to push it forward and backward.
▼ Armrest
Using the armrest
The armrest on the side of the second-row
seatback can be used or placed upright.
Adjusting the angle
The angle of the armrest can be adjusted
according to the angle of the seatback.
To adjust the angle, lower the armrest to
the lowest position, pull it up to the
desired position, and then lock it. To
adjust the angle again, store the armrest
once and then lower the armrest to the
lowest position again.
After adjustment, make sure that the
armrest is securely locked by lightly
pressing it down.
WA R N I N G
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.
