Essential Safety Equipment
Child Restraint
WARNING
Do not allow a child or anyone to lean over or against the side window of a vehicle with
side air bags:
It is dangerous to allow anyone to lean over or against the side window, the area of the
passenger seat from which the side air bags deploy, even if a child-restraint system is
used. The impact of in À ation from a side air bag could cause serious injury or death
to an out of position child. Furthermore, leaning over or against the door could block
the side air bags and eliminate the advantages of supplementary protection. Because
the side air bag deploys from the outboard shoulder of the seat, do not allow the child
to lean over or against the side window, even if the child is seated in a child-restraint
system.
Never use one seat belt on more than one person at a time:
Using one seat belt for more than one person at a time is dangerous. A seat belt used
in this way cannot spread the impact forces properly and the two passengers could
be crushed together and seriously injured or even killed. Never use one belt for more
than one person at a time and always operate the vehicle with each occupant properly
restrained.
Use the tether and tether anchor only for a child-restraint system:
Child-restraint system anchorages are designed to withstand only those loads imposed
by correctly installed child-restraint systems. Under no circumstances are they to be
used for adult seat belts, harnesses, or for attaching other items or equipment to the
vehicle.
CAUTION
A seat belt or child-restraint system can become very hot in a closed vehicle during
warm weather. To avoid burning yourself or a child, check them before you or your child
touches them.
NOTE
(European models)
Your Mazda is equipped with ISOFIX anchors for attachment of ISOFIX child-restraint
systems. When using these anchors to secure a child-restraint system, refer to “Using
ISOFIX Anchor” (page 2-30 ).

Essential Safety Equipment
SRS Air Bags
WARNING
Do not sit too close to the driver and passenger air bags:
Sitting too close to the driver and passenger air bag modules or placing hands or feet
on them is extremely dangerous. The driver and passenger air bags in À ate with great
force and speed. Serious injuries could occur if someone is too close. The driver should
always hold onto only the rim of the steering wheel. The passenger should keep both
feet on the À oor. Seat occupants should adjust their seats as far back as possible and
always sit upright against the seatbacks with seat belts worn properly.
Do not sit too close to a door or lean against doors in vehicles with side air bags:
Sitting too close to the side air bag modules or placing hands on them is extremely
dangerous. A side air bag in À ates with great force and speed directly out of the outboard
shoulder of the seat and expands along the door on the side the car is hit. Serious injury
could occur if someone is sitting too close to the door or leaning against a window in
the seats. Furthermore, sleeping up against the door or hanging out the driver-side
window while driving could block the side air bag and eliminate the advantages of
supplementary protection. Give the side air bags room to work by sitting in the centre of
the seat while the vehicle is moving with seat belts worn properly.
Sit in the centre of the seat and wear seat belts properly:
Sitting too close to the side air bag modules or placing hands on them, or sleeping up
against the door or hanging out the windows is extremely dangerous. The side air bags
in À ate with great force and speed directly expanding along the door on the side the car
is hit. Serious injury could occur if someone is sitting too close to the door. Give the
side air bags room to work by sitting in the centre of the seat while the vehicle is moving
with seat belts worn properly.
Do not attach objects on or around the area where driver and passenger air bags
deploy:
Attaching an object to the driver and passenger air bag modules or placing something
in front of them is dangerous. In an accident, an object could interfere with air bag
in À ation and injure the occupants.

Essential Safety Equipment
SRS Air Bags
Side Air Bags
The side air bags are mounted in the outboard sides of the seatbacks.
When the air bag crash sensors detect a side impact of greater than moderate force, the
system in À ates the side air bag only on the side in which the vehicle was hit. The side air
bag in À ates quickly to reduce injury to the driver or passenger's head and chest caused by
directly hitting interior parts such as a door or window.
For more details about air bag deployment, refer to "SRS Air Bag Deployment Criteria"
(page 2-44 ).
(With Passenger Occupant Classi ¿ cation System)
In addition, the passenger side bag is designed to only deploy when the passenger occupant
classi ¿ cation sensor detects a passenger sitting on the passenger's seat. For details, refer to
the passenger occupant classi ¿ cation system (page 2-47 ).
Warning Light/Beep
A system malfunction or operation conditions are indicated by a warning.
Refer to Warning/Indicator Lights on page 4-42 .
Refer to Warning Sound is Activated on page 7-49 .

someone being badly injured or even
killed. Children may ¿ nd these keys
to be an interesting toy to play with
and could cause the power windows or
other controls to operate, or even make

cellular phones.
The key contacts or is covered by a
metal object.
The key is near electronic devices
such as personal computers.
Non-Mazda genuine electronic
equipment is installed in the
vehicle.
There is equipment which
discharges radio waves near the
vehicle.
The key (transmitter) may consume
battery power excessively if it
receives high-intensity radio waves.
Do not place the key near electronic
devices such as televisions or
personal computers.
To avoid damage to the key
(transmitter), DO NOT:
Drop the key.
Get the key wet.
Disassemble the key.
Expose the key to high
temperatures on places such as the
instrument panel or bonnet, under
direct sunlight.
