WARNING: Several air bag system components get hot after
inflation. Do not touch them after inflation or you may be
burned.

WARNING: If the air bag has deployed, the air bag will not
function again and must be replaced immediately. If the air bag
is not replaced, the unrepaired area will increase the risk of
injury in a collision.

The SRS consists of:

driver and passenger air bag modules (which include the inflators and
air bags),

one or more impact and safing sensors,

a readiness light and tone

diagnostic module

and the electrical wiring which connects the components.

The diagnostic module monitors its own internal circuits and the
supplemental air bag electrical system warning (including the impact
sensors), the system wiring, the air bag system readiness light, the air
bag back up power and the air bag ignitors.

Determining if the system is operational

The SRS uses a readiness light in the instrument cluster or a tone to
indicate the condition of the system. Refer to the

Air bag readiness

section in the

Instrumentation

chapter. Routine maintenance of the air

bag is not required.

A difficulty with the system is indicated by one or more of the following:

The readiness light will either
flash or stay lit.

The readiness light will not
illuminate immediately after
ignition is turned on.

A series of five beeps will be heard. The tone pattern will repeat
periodically until the problem and/or light are repaired.

If any of these things happen, even intermittently, have the SRS serviced
at your authorized Mazda dealership immediately.
