The curtain air bag is ready for in flating
regardless of what the front passenger air bag
deactivation indicator light on/o ff condition
chart indicates.

If the front passenger air bag
deactivation indicator light does not
illuminate when the power switch is
switched ON and does not illuminate
as indicated in the front passenger air
bag deactivation indicator light on/o ff
condition chart, do not allow a child to
sit in the front passenger seat and
consult an Authorized Mazda Dealer

not work properly in an accident.
WARNING
Do not decrease the total seated
weight on the front passenger seat:
When an adult or large child sits on the
front passenger seat, decreasing the
total seated weight on the front
passenger seat required for air bag
deployment is dangerous. The front
passenger seat weight sensors will
detect the reduced total seated weight
condition and the front passenger front
and side air bags and knee air bags,
and the seat belt pretensioner system
will not deploy during an accident. The
front passenger will not have the
supplementary protection of the air
bag , which could result in serious
injury. Decreasing the total seated
weight on the front passenger seat
could result in an air bag not deploying
under the following conditions, for
example:
 A front passenger is seated as shown
in the following figure:
 A rear passenger pushes up on the

passenger seat weight sensors will
detect the increased total seated
weight, which could result in the
unexpected deployment of the front
passenger front and side air bags and
knee air bags, and seat belt
pretensioner system in an accident and
may cause serious injury. Increasing the
total seated weight on the front
passenger seat could result in the front
passenger front and side air bags and
knee air bags, and seat belt
pretensioner system deployment in an
accident under the following
conditions, for example:
 Luggage or other items are placed on
the seat with the child in the
child-restraint system.
 The front passenger seat contacts the
vehicle ceiling.A rear passenger or luggage push or
pull down on the front passenger
seatback.
