NOTE
l
To check if your front seats have side
air bags:
Mazda vehicles equipped with side
air bag will have a
“
SRS AIRBAG
”
tag on the outboard shoulder of the
front seats.
l
To check if your vehicle has curtain
air bags:
Mazda vehicles equipped with
curtain air bag will have an
“
SRS
AIRBAG
”
marking on the front and
rear window pillars along the roof
edge.
WARNING
Always move the front passenger seat
as far back as possible if installing a
front-facing child-restraint system on
it is unavoidable:
As your vehicle has front air bags and
doubly so if your vehicle has side air
bags, a front-facing child-restraint
system should be put on the front
passenger seat only when it is
unavoidable.
Even if the front passenger air bag
deactivation indicator light
illuminates, always move the seat as
far back as possible, because the force
of a deploying air bag could cause
serious injury or death to the child.
WARNING
Never use a rear-facing child-restraint
system in the front seat with an air bag
that could deploy:
Rear-facing child-restraint systems on
the front seat are particularly
dangerous.
Even in a moderate collision, the
child-restraint system can be hit by a
deploying air bag and moved violently
backward resulting in serious injury
or death to the child. Even though you
may feel assured that the front
passenger air bag will not deploy
based on the fact that the front
passenger air bag deactivation
indicator light illuminates.
