Essential Safety Equipment

Child Restraint

Form No. 8Q50-EA-01G

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 with 
rear-facing child-restraint systems it is 
clearly unsafe due to air bags.

Some child-restraint systems now come 
with tethers and therefore must be 
installed on the seats that take tethers to 
be effective. In your Mazda, tethered 
child-restraint systems can only be 
accommodated in the three positions on 
the rear seat.

Rear Seat Child-Restraint 
System Installation

Follow these instructions when using a 
child-restraint system. 

1. Secure the child-restraint system with 

the lap portion of the lap/shoulder belt. 
See the instructions on the child-
restraint system for belt routing 
instructions.

2. To get the retractor into the automatic 

locking mode, pull the shoulder belt 
portion of the seat belt until the entire 
length of the belt is out of the retractor.

Installing Child-Restraint 
Systems

Tethered Child-Restraint Systems 
Work Only on Rear Seat:
Installation of a tether equipped 
child-restraint system in the front 
passenger’s seat defeats the safety 
design of the system and will result in 
an increased chance of serious injury 
if the child-restraint system goes 
forward without benefit of being 
tethered.
Place tether equipped child-restraint 
systems where there are tether 
anchors.

WARNING

NOTE

Follow the child-restraint system 
manufacturer’s instructions carefully. 
Depending on the type of child-
restraint system, it may not employ 
seat belts which are in automatic 
locking mode.
