Essential Safety Equipment

SRS Air Bags

Form No. 8Q42-EA-01F

When the ignition switch is turned to the 
ON position, the passenger-side air bag 
deactivation indicator light comes on for 
about 6 seconds.
If the passenger-side air bag deactivation 
switch is in the OFF position, the 
indicator light remains on to warn that the 
passenger-side air bag has been 
deactivated.

To Deactivate The Passenger-Side 
Air Bag

1. Insert the key into the switch.

2. Turn the key clockwise until the key 

points to OFF.

3. Remove the key.

4. Make sure the air bag deactivation 

indicator light remains on when the 
ignition is in the ON position.

The passenger-side air bag will remain 
deactivated until the passenger-side air 
bag deactivation switch is turned to the 
ON position.

NOTE

Have the passenger-side air bag 
deactivation switch inspected by an 
Authorized Mazda Dealer if any of 
these conditions occur:

The indicator doesn’t come on 
when the ignition switch is turned to 
the ON position.

The indicator doesn’t remain on 
when the ignition switch is in the 
ON position and the passenger-side 
air bag deactivation switch is in the 
OFF position.

The indicator remains on when the 
ignition switch is in the ON position 
and the passenger-side air bag 
deactivation switch is in the ON 
position.

Leaving the Key in the Passenger-
Side Air Bag Deactivation Switch:
Unintentional deactivation of the 
passenger-side air bag is dangerous. 
In an accident, the passenger will not 
be properly protected. Serious injuries 
or even death could occur. To avoid 
unintentional deactivation, always 
use the same key to operate the 
passenger-side air bag deactivation 
switch and the ignition switch, that 
way you won’t leave the key in the 
passenger-side air bag deactivation 
switch.
