Essential Safety Equipment

SRS Air Bags

*Some models.

           Side Air  Bags 

*

 

    The side air bags are mounted in the outboard sides of the front seatbacks.
  When the air bag crash sensors detect a side impact of greater than moderate force, the 
system in

À ates the side air bag only on the side in which the vehicle was hit. The side 

air bag in

À ates quickly to reduce injury to the driver or front passenger's chest caused by 

directly hitting interior parts such as a door or window.
  For more details about air bag deployment, refer to "SRS Air Bag Deployment Criteria" 
(page   2-56 ).
  

 

 

           Curtain Air  Bags 

*

 

    The curtain air bags are mounted in the front and rear window pillars, and the roof edge 
along both sides.
  When the air bag crash sensors detect a side impact of greater than moderate force, the 
curtain air bag in

À ates quickly and helps to reduce injury mainly to the rear outboard 

passenger's head caused by directly hitting interior parts such as a door or window.
  For more details about air bag deployment, refer to "SRS Air Bag Deployment Criteria" 
(page   2-56 ).
  

 

Only one side curtain air bag will deploy on the 
side of the vehicle that receives the force of an 
impact.

 Limitations to SRS Air Bag

            In  severe  collisions  such  as  those  described  previously  in  "SRS  Air  Bag  Deployment 
Criteria", the applicable SRS air bag equipment will deploy. However, in some accidents, 
the equipment may not deploy depending on the type of collision and its severity.
  
   Limitations to front/near front collision detection: 
  The following illustrations are examples of front/near front collisions that may not be 
detected as severe enough to deploy the SRS air bag equipment.
  

 

Impacts involving trees or poles

 WARNING

 Do not leave the key in your vehicle 
with children and keep them in a place 
where your children will not 

¿ nd or 

play with them: 
 Leaving children in a vehicle with the 
key is dangerous. This could result in 
someone being badly injured or even 
killed. Children may 

¿ nd these keys 

to be an interesting toy to play with 
and could cause the power windows or 
other controls to operate, or even make 
the vehicle move. 

 CAUTION

 

  Because the key (transmitter) uses 

low-intensity radio waves, it may 
not function correctly under the 
following conditions: 

 

 

  The key is carried with 

communication devices such as 
cellular phones.

 

  The key contacts or is covered by a 

metal object.

 

  The key is near electronic devices 

such as personal computers.

 

  Non-Mazda genuine electronic 

equipment is installed in the 
vehicle.

 

  There is equipment which 

discharges radio waves near the 
vehicle.    

 

  The key (transmitter) may consume 

battery power excessively if it 
receives high-intensity radio waves. 
Do not place the key near electronic 
devices such as televisions or 
personal computers. 

 

  To avoid damage to the key 

(transmitter), DO NOT: 

 

 

  Drop the key.

 

  Get the key wet.

 

  Disassemble the key.

 

  Expose the key to high 

temperatures on places such as the 
instrument panel or bonnet, under 
direct sunlight.

 

  Expose the key to any kind of 

magnetic 

¿ eld.

 

  Place heavy objects on the key.

 

  Put the key in an ultrasonic 

cleaner.

 

  Put any magnetized objects close 

to the key.

Before Driving

Keys

  A code number is stamped on the plate 
attached to the key set; detach this plate 
and store it in a safe place (not in the 
vehicle) for use if you need to make a 
replacement key (auxiliary key).
  Also write down the code number and 
keep it in a separate safe and convenient 
place, but not in the vehicle.
  
  If your key (auxiliary key) is lost, consult 
your Authorised Mazda Repairer and have 
your code number ready.

 NOTE

 The driver must carry the key to ensure 
the system functions properly.

 Keyless Entry System

            This  system  uses  the  key  buttons  to 
remotely lock and unlock the doors and 
the liftgate/boot lid, and opens the boot lid.
  The system can start the engine without 
having to take the key out of your purse or 
pocket.
  Operating the theft-deterrent system is 
also possible on theft-deterrent system-
equipped vehicles.
  
  System malfunctions or warnings are 
indicated by the following warning lights 
or beeps.

  

 

 KEY Warning Light (Red)



  Refer to Warning/Indicator Lights on 

page   4-38 .

  Refer to Key Removed from Vehicle 

Warning Beep on page  7-51 .

    

  If you have a problem with the key, 
consult an expert repairer, we recommend 
an Authorised Mazda Repairer.
  
  If your key is lost or stolen, consult an 
Authorised Mazda Repairer as soon as 
possible for a replacement and to make the 
lost or stolen key inoperative.

 CAUTION

 Changes or modi

¿ cations not expressly 

approved by the party responsible 
for compliance could void the user's 
authority to operate the equipment.

Before Driving

Keys

 NOTE

 

  The keyless entry system operation 

may vary due to local conditions. 

 

  The keyless entry system is fully 

operational (door/liftgate/boot lid 
lock/unlock) when the ignition is 
switched off. The system does not 
operate if the ignition is switched to 
any position other than off. 

 

  If the key does not operate when 

pressing a button or the operational 
range becomes too small, the 
battery may be weak. To install a 
new battery, refer to Key Battery 
Replacement (page  6-41 ). 

 

  Battery life is about one year. 

Replace the battery with a new one 
if the KEY indicator light (green) 
À ashes in the instrument cluster. 
Replacing the battery about once 
a year is recommended because 
the KEY warning light/indicator 
light may not illuminate or 

À ash 

depending on the rate of battery 
depletion. 

  

 

  Additional keys can be obtained at 

an Authorised Mazda Repairer. Up to 
6 keys can be used with the keyless 
functions per vehicle. Bring all keys 
to an Authorised Mazda Repairer 
when additional keys are required.
