Black plate (15,1) 2 Essential Safety Equipment Use of safety equipment, including seats, seat belt system, SRS air bags and child-restraint systems. Seats .......................................................... ....................................
Black plate (16,1) Front Seats W ARNING Modification of the Fr ont Seats: Modifying or replacing the front seats such as replacing the up holstery or loosening any bolts is d angerous. The front seats contain air bag components essential to the supplemental restraint system.
Black plate (17,1) q Seat Recline W ARNING Reclining: Sitting in a reclined posit ion while the vehicle is movin g is dangerous because you don't get the full protection from seat belts. Duri ng sudden braking or a collision , you can slide under the lap belt and su ffer serious internal injuries.
Black plate (18,1) q Height Adjustment (Driver's Seat) í By moving the seat lever up or down, the seat bottom height can be adjusted. Down Up q Lumbar Support Adjustment (Driver's Seat) í T o adjust the lumbar support, pull the lever forward.
Black plate (19,1) Rear Seat W ARNING Stacking Cargo: Stacking luggage or other cargo higher than the seatbacks, and placing articles on the rear package tray or on the luggage compartment cover is dangerous. During sudden braki ng or a collision, objects can fly around and become projectiles that may hit and injure passengers.
Black plate (20,1) NOTE When returning a rear seat to its original position, also replace the seat belt to its normal position. V erify that the seat belt pulls and retracts. q Split-Folding Rear Seatback T o fold the seatbacks CAUTION When operating the rear seatb ack knob, make sure you suppor t the seatback with your hand.
Black plate (21,1) W ARNING Seat Belts Caught Under Seatbacks: A seat belt caugh t under a seatback after the seatback is retur ned to its upright position is dangerou s. In a collision or sudden stop, the seat belt cannot provide adequate protectio n.
Black plate (22,1) Height adjustmen t T o raise a head restraint, pull it up to the locked position. T o lower the head restraint, press the stop- catch release, then push the head restraint down. Adjust the head restraint so that the top is parallel with the top of the passenger's ears, never the passenger's neck.
Black plate (23,1) Seat Belt Precautions Seat belts help to d ecrease the possibility of severe injury during acciden ts and sudden stops. Mazda recommends that the driver and all passengers always wear seat belts. All of the seat belt retr actors are designed to keep the lap/shoul der belts out of the way when not in use.
Black plate (24,1) W ARNING Not W earing Seat Belts: Not wearing a seat belt is extremel y dangerous. During a coll ision, occupants not wearing seat belts could hit someone or things insi de the vehicle or even be throw n out of the vehicle. They could be seriously injure d or even killed.
Black plate (25,1) q Pregnant W omen and Persons with Serious Medical Conditions Pregnant women should wear seat belts. Ask your doctor for speci fic recommendatio ns. The lap belt should be worn SNUGL Y AND AS LOW AS POSSIBLE OVER THE HIPS. The shoulder belt should be worn across your shoulder properly , but never across the stomach area.
Black plate (26,1) 3-Point T ype Seat Belt NOTE When using the rear center seat belt, refer to “ Rear Center Po sition Seat Belt ” (page 2-16). q Fastening the Seat Belts 1. Grasp the buckle and tongue. 2. Slowly pull out the lap/shoul der belt. Tongue Belt 3.
Black plate (27,1) q Unfastening the Seat Belts Depress the button on the buckle. NOTE If a belt does not fully retract, inspect it for kinks and twists.
Black plate (28,1) Front Seat Belt Pretensioner and Load Limiting Systems For optimum protection, the driver and front passenger seat belts are equipped with pretensioner and load limiting systems. In moderate or greater frontal or near- frontal accidents, the front air bag and pretensioner systems deploy simultaneously .
Black plate (29,1) W ARNING Pretensioner System Disposal: Improper disposal of the prete nsioner system or a vehicle with non- deactivated pretensioner s is dangerous.
Black plate (30,1) q Air Bag/Front Seat Belt Pretensioner System W arning Beep If a malfunction is detected in the air bag/ front seat belt prete nsioner systems and the warning light, a warning beep sound will be heard for about 5 seconds every minute.
Black plate (31,1) W ARNING Fastening the Rear-Cen ter Seat Belt with Only One Buckle: Fastening the rear-center seat belt with only one buckle is dan gerous. If only one pair of seat belt tongue and buckle, either tongue (A ) and anchor buckle (B) or tongue (C) and anchor buckle (D), is fastened, the seat belt cannot provide full protection.
Black plate (32,1) NOTE T o encourage rear seat passengers to wear their seat belt s, we suggest leavi ng the rear center lap position of the belt fastened at all times ex cept when folding the rear seat forward. q Fastening the Lap Portion of the Seat Belt Grasp tongue (A) and inser t it into the anchor buckle (B) until you hear a click.
Black plate (33,1) W ARNING Using an Extender That is T oo Long: Using an extender that is too long is dangerous. The seat belt will not fit properly. In an accident, the seat belt will not provide adequate protectio n and you could be seriously injured.
Black plate (34,1) q Belt Minder The belt minder is a suppl emental warning to the seat belt war ning function. This feature provides additional reminders to the driver that the driver's seat belt is not fastened by intermittentl y sounding a beep sound and flashing the seat belt warning light in the instrument cluster .
Black plate (35,1) Child Restraint Precautions Mazda strongly urges the use of chil d-restraint systems for children small enough to use them. Y ou are required by law to use a child-restraint system for children in the U.
Black plate (36,1) W ARNING Proper Size of Child-Restraint System: For effective protection in vehicle accidents and sudden stops, a c hild must be properly restrained using a seat belt or child -restraint system dependi ng on age and size. If not, the child could be seriously injur ed or even killed in an accident.
Black plate (37,1) W ARNING Seating Children in a Child-Res traint System on the Fron t Passenger Seat: If your vehicle is equipped with front passenger seat weight sensors, a front passenger air bag deactivation indicator light is also equipped (page 2-29).
Black plate (38,1) W ARNING One Belt, One Passenger: Using one seat belt for more than one person at a time is dangerous. A seat belt used in this way can't spread the impact forces properly and the two passengers could be crushed together and seriously injur ed or even killed.
Black plate (39,1) Installing Child-Restraint Systems Accident statistics reveal that a child is safer in the rear seat. The front passenger's seat is clearly the worst choice for any child under 12, and wi th rear-facing child- restraint systems it is clear ly unsafe due to air bags.
Black plate (40,1) 3. T o get the retractor into the automati c locking mode, pull the shoulder belt portion of the seat belt until the entire length of the belt is out of the retractor . 4. Push the child-res traint system firmly into the vehicle seat.

Black plate (51,1) W ARNING Air Bags without Seat Belts: Depending only on the air bags for protection during an accide nt is dangerous. Alone, air bags may not prevent serious injur ies. The appropriate air bags can be expect ed to inflate only in collisions with front al, near frontal or side forces that are at least moderate.
Black plate (52,1) W ARNING Seating Position with Side and Cur tain Air Bags: Sitting too close to the side air bag modul es or placing hands on them is extre mely dangerous. The side air bags inflate with great force and speed directly out of the outboard side of the front seat and expand along the front door on the side the car is hit.
