Essential Safety Equipment

Child Restraint

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.

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

Your Mazda is equipped with LATCH lower anchors for attachment of specially designed 

LATCH child-restraint systems in the rear seats. When using these anchors to secure a 

child-restraint system, refer to "Using LATCH Lower Anchor" (page 2-44).
