If the front passenger air bag
deactivation indicator light illuminates
when an adult is seated in the front
passenger seat, have the passenger
re-adjust their posture by sitting with
their feet on the floor, and then
re-fastening the seat belt. If the front
passenger air bag deactivation indicator
light still illuminates, move the
passenger to the rear seat. If sitting in
the rear seat is not possible, slide the
front passenger seat as far back as
possible. Consult an Authorized Mazda
Dealer as soon as possible.

Driver and Front Passenger Buckle
Switches

The buckle switches on the front seat belts
detect whether or not the front seat belts
are securely fastened and further control
the deployment of the air bags.
