In case there is a problem with the
front passenger sensing system, the
airbag readiness lamp in the
instrument cluster will stay lit.

If the airbag readiness lamp is lit, do the following:

The driver and/or adult passengers should check for any objects that
may be lodged underneath the front passenger seat or cargo interfering
with the seat.

If objects are lodged and/or cargo is interfering with the seat; please take
the following steps to remove the obstruction:

Pull the vehicle over.

Turn the vehicle off.

Driver and/or adult passengers should check for any objects lodged
underneath the front passenger seat or cargo interfering with the seat.

Remove the obstruction(s) (if found).

Restart the vehicle.

Wait at least 2 minutes and verify that the airbag readiness lamp is no
longer illuminated

If the airbag readiness lamp remains illuminated, this may or may/not
be a problem due to the front passenger sensing system.

immediately to an authorized Mazda dealer. Ask the front seat occupant
to sit in a rear seat until the air bag system if checked by the authorized
Mazda Dealer.

Relationship Center at the phone number shown in the

Any alteration/modification to the front passenger

seat may affect the performance of the front passenger sensing

system.

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

Airbag readiness

section in the

Instrument Cluster

chapter. Routine maintenance of the
