Essential Safety Equipment

SRS Air Bags

Form No. 8Q47-EA-01F

The supplemental restraint systems (SRS) have two basic subsystems:

The air bag system with inflators and air bags.

The electric system with crash sensors and diagnostic module.

The air bags are mounted in the following locations: the center of the steering wheel, the 
passenger-side of the dashboard, and in the outboard sides of the front seatbacks. They are 
out of sight until activated.

How the Air Bags Work

When air bag crash sensors detect a frontal or side impact of greater than moderate force, 
an electrical current is sent to the inflators.
Gases are produced to inflate the air bags and after the inflation, the air bags quickly 
deflate.
The air bags will function only once. After that, 

the air bags will not work again and 

must be replaced.

Only an Authorized Mazda Dealer can replace the systems.
