Essential Safety Equipment

SRS Air Bags

Form No. 8Q42-EA-01F

Installation of Front-End Equipment:
Installation of front-end equipment, such as frontal protection bar (kangaroo bar, 
bull bar, push bar, etc.), snowplow, or winches, is dangerous. The air bag crash sensor 
system could be affected. This could cause air bags to inflate unexpectedly, or it could 
prevent the air bags from inflating during an accident. Occupants could be seriously 
injured. Never install any front-end equipment to your vehicle.

Suspension Adjustment:
Adjusting the vehicle suspension is dangerous. If the vehicle’s height or the 
suspension is changed, the vehicle will be unable to accurately detect a collision 
resulting in incorrect or unexpected air bag deployment and the possibility of serious 
injuries.

Modification of the Supplemental Restraint System:
Modifying the components or wiring of the supplemental restraint system is 
dangerous. You could accidentally activate it or make it inoperable. Don’t make any 
modifications to the supplemental restraint system. This includes installing trim, 
badges, or anything else over the air bag storage areas. It also includes installing 
extra electric equipment on or near system components or wiring.

NOTE

When an air bag deploys, a loud inflation noise can be heard and some smoke will be 
released. Neither is likely to cause injury, however, the texture of the air bags may 
cause light skin injuries on body parts not covered with clothing through friction.

Should you sell your Mazda, we urge you to tell the new owner of its air bag systems 
and that familiarization with all instructions about them, from the Owner’s Manual, is 
important.
