27 Mazda5_8V88-EA-06G_Edition1 Page26 Monday, May :26 AM Back pate (26,1) Essentia Safety Equipment Seat Bet Systems Seat Bet Precautions Seat bets hep to decrease the possibiity of severe injury during accidents and sudden stops. Mazda recommends that the driver and a passengers aways wear seat bets. A of the seat bet retractors are designed to keep the ap/shouder bets out of the way when not in use. The driver's seat bet has no provisions for chid-restraint systems and has ony an emergency ocking mode. The driver may wear it comfortaby, and it wi ock during a coision. However, the front passenger's seat and a rear ap/shouder bet retractors operate in two modes: emergency ocking mode, and for chid-restraint systems, automatic ocking mode. Whie we recommend you put a chidren in the rear seats, if you must use the front passenger seat for a chid, side the front passenger seat as far back as possibe and make sure any chid-restraint system is secured propery. WARNING Aways wear your seat bet and make sure a occupants are propery restrained: Not wearing a seat bet is extremey dangerous. During a coision, occupants not wearing seat bets coud hit someone or things inside the vehice or even be thrown out of the vehice. They coud be seriousy injured or even kied. In the same coision, occupants wearing seat bets woud be much safer. Do not wear twisted seat bets: Twisted seat bets are dangerous. In a coision, the fu width of the bet is not avaiabe to absorb the impact. This puts more force on the bones beneath the bet, which coud cause serious injury or death. Never use one seat bet on more than one person at a time: Using one seat bet for more than one person at a time is dangerous. A seat bet used in this way cannot spread the impact forces propery and the two passengers coud be crushed together and seriousy injured or even kied. Never use one bet for more than one person at a time and aways operate the vehice with each occupant propery restrained. Do not operate a vehice with a damaged seat bet: Using a damaged seat bet is dangerous. An accident coud damage the bet webbing of the seat bet in use. A damaged seat bet cannot provide adequate protection in a coision. Have an Authorized Mazda Deaer inspect a seat bet systems in use during an accident before they are used again. 2-14

28 Mazda5_8V88-EA-06G_Edition1 Page27 Monday, May :26 AM Back pate (27,1) Essentia Safety Equipment Seat Bet Systems WARNING Have your seat bets changed immediatey if the pretensioner or oad imiter has been expended: One or both front air bags may depoy, and the corresponding pretensioner(s) may aso depoy at the same time. Whie it is safer to use a crash-used seat bet that was used in an accident than no seat bet at a, using a seat bet with an expended pretensioner or oad imiter oaded reduces the safety avaiabe to you. Like the air bags, the seat bet pretensioners wi ony function once. After they are expended, they wi not function again and must be repaced immediatey. If the seat bet pretensioners are not repaced, the risk of injury in a coision wi increase. Aways have an Authorized Mazda Deaer inspect the seat bet pretensioners and air bags after any coision. Expended seat bet pretensioners and air bags must be repaced after any coision which caused them to depoy. Additionay, the oad imiter wi ony imit oads on the chest once in a coision and this is another reason to have the front seat bets inspected. CAUTION Bet retraction may become difficut if the bets and rings are soied, so try to keep them cean.

If the bet fees tight and hinders comfortabe movement whie the vehice is stopped or in motion, it may be in the automatic ocking mode because the bet has been pued too far out. To return to the bet to the more comfortabe emergency ocking mode, wait unti the vehice has stopped in a safe, eve area, retract the bet fuy to convert it back to emergency ocking mode and then extend it around you again. qautomatic Locking Mode Aways use the automatic ocking mode to keep the chid-restraint system from shifting to an unsafe position in the event of an accident.

For both these systems to work propery you must wear the seat bet propery. Pretensioners: In moderate or severe fronta or nearfronta accidents, the front air bag and pretensioner systems depoy simutaneousy when the seat bet is worn. If the front seat occupant is not wearing a seat bet, that person's pretensioner wi not fire even if the air bag does. The front seat bet retractors remove sack quicky as the air bags are expanding. In addition, the pretensioner system for the front passenger, ike the front passenger air bag, is designed to ony depoy in accordance with the tota seated weight on the front passenger seat. Any time the air bags and seat bet pretensioners have fired they must be repaced. For detais, refer to the front passenger seat weight sensors (page 2-46). WARNING Wear seat bets ony as recommended in this owner's manua: Incorrect positioning of the driver and front passenger seat bets is dangerous. Without proper positioning, the pretensioner and oad imiting systems cannot provide adequate protection in an accident and this coud resut in serious injury. For more detais about wearing seat bets, refer to Fastening the seat bets (page 2-17). Load imiter: The oad imiting system reeases bet webbing in a controed manner to reduce bet force on the occupant's chest. Whie the most severe oad on a seat bet occurs in fronta coisions, the oad imiter has an automatic mechanica function and can activate in any accident mode with sufficient occupant movement. Even if the pretensioners have not fired, the oad imiting function must be checked by an Authorized Mazda Deaer. 2-19

37 Mazda5_8V88-EA-06G_Edition1 Page36 Monday, May :26 AM Back pate (36,1) Essentia Safety Equipment Chid Restraint Chid Restraint Precautions Mazda strongy urges the use of chid-restraint systems for chidren sma enough to use them. You are required by aw to use a chid-restraint system for chidren in the U.S. and Canada. Check your oca and state or provincia aws for specific requirements regarding the safety of chidren riding in your vehice. Whatever chid-restraint system you consider, pease pick the appropriate one for the age and size of the chid, obey the aw and foow the instructions that come with the individua chid-restraint system. A chid who has outgrown chid-restraint systems shoud sit in the rear and use seat bets, both ap and shouder. If the shouder bet crosses the neck or face, move the chid coser to the center of the vehice. Statistics confirm that the rear seats are the best pace for a chidren up to 12 years of age, and more so with a suppementa restraint system (air bags). A rear-facing chid-restraint system shoud NEVER be used on the front seat with the air bag system activated. The front passenger's seat is aso the east preferred seat for other chid-restraint systems. To reduce the chance of injuries caused by depoyment of the front passenger air bag, the front passenger seat weight sensors work as a part of the suppementa restraint system. This system deactivates the front passenger front and side air bags and aso the front passenger seat bet pretensioner system when the tota seated weight on the front passenger seat is ess than approximatey 30 kg (66 b). When an infant or sma chid sits on the front passenger seat, the system shuts off the front passenger front and side air bags and seat bet pretensioner system, so make sure the front passenger air bag deactivation indicator ight iuminates. Even if the front passenger air bag is shut off, Mazda strongy recommends that chidren be propery restrained and chid-restraint systems of a kinds are propery secured on the rear seats which are the best pace for chidren. For more detais, refer to Front passenger seat weight sensors (page 2-46). 2-24

38 Mazda5_8V88-EA-06G_Edition1 Page37 Monday, May :26 AM Back pate (37,1) Essentia Safety Equipment Chid Restraint WARNING Use the correct size chid-restraint system: For effective protection in vehice accidents and sudden stops, a chid must be propery restrained using a seat bet or chid-restraint system depending on age and size. If not, the chid coud be seriousy injured or even kied in an accident. Foow the manufacturer's instructions and aways keep the chid-restraint system bucked down: An unsecured chid-restraint system is dangerous. In a sudden stop or a coision it coud move causing serious injury or death to the chid or other occupants. Make sure any chid-restraint system is propery secured in pace according to the chid-restraint system manufacturer's instructions. When not in use, remove it from the vehice or fasten it with a seat bet, or atch it down to BOTH LATCH ower anchors for LATCH chid-restraint systems and the corresponding tether anchor. Aways secure a chid in a proper chid-restraint system: Hoding a chid in your arms whie the vehice is moving is extremey dangerous. No matter how strong the person may be, he or she cannot hod onto a chid in a sudden stop or coision and it coud resut in serious injury or death to the chid or other occupants. Even in a moderate accident, the chid may be exposed to air bag forces that coud resut in serious injury or death to the chid, or the chid may be sammed into an adut, causing injury to both chid and adut. Never use a rear-facing chid-restraint system in the front seat with an air bag that coud depoy: Rear-facing chid-restraint systems on the front seat are particuary dangerous even though you may fee assured that a front passenger air bag wi not depoy based on the fact that the front passenger air bag deactivation indicator ight iuminates. The chid-restraint system can be hit by a depoying air bag and moved vioenty backward resuting in serious injury or death to the chid. 2-25

They are ocated in: The steering whee hub (driver air bag) The front passenger dashboard (front passenger air bag) The outboard sides of the front seatbacks (side air bags) í The front and rear window piars, and the roof edge aong both sides (curtain air bags) í These systems operate independenty depending on the type of accident encountered; if you have side and curtain air bags, the side and curtain air bags are not ikey to depoy on both sides in the same accident because a vehice is not often hit from both sides. The side and curtain air bags and the fronta air bag system wi not normay depoy during the same type of accident uness a combination of fronta and side impacts occur. The air bag suppementa restraint systems are designed to provide suppementa protection ony in the front seats in certain situations and the rear outside passenger positions ony in same-side coisions, so seat bets are aways important in the foowing ways: Without seat bet usage, the air bags cannot provide adequate protection during an accident. Seat bet usage is necessary to: Keep the occupant from being thrown into an infating air bag. Reduce the possibiity of injuries during an accident that is not designed for air bag infation, such as ro-over or rear impact. Reduce the possibiity of injuries in fronta or side coisions that are not severe enough to activate the air bags. Reduce the possibiity of being thrown from your vehice. Reduce the possibiity of injuries to ower body and egs during an accident because the air bags provide no protection to these parts of the body. Hod the driver in a position which aows better contro of the vehice. Chidren shoud be protected by a chid-restraint system as stipuated by aw in every state and province.

CAUTION Each tire, incuding the spare (if provided), shoud be checked monthy when cod and infated to the infation pressure recommended by the vehice manufacturer on the vehice pacard or tire infation pressure abe. (If your vehice has tires of a different size than the size indicated on the vehice pacard or tire infation pressure abe, you shoud determine the proper tire infation pressure for those tires.) As an added safety feature, your vehice has been equipped with a tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS) that iuminates a ow tire pressure tetae when one or more of your tires is significanty under-infated. Accordingy, when the ow tire pressure tetae iuminates, you shoud stop and check your tires as soon as possibe, and infate them to the proper pressure. Driving on a significanty under-infated tire causes the tire to overheat and can ead to tire faiure. Under-infation aso reduces fue efficiency and tire tread ife, and may affect the vehice's handing and stopping abiity. Pease note that the TPMS is not a substitute for proper tire maintenance, and it is the driver's responsibiity to maintain correct tire pressure, even if under-infation has not reached the eve to trigger iumination of the TPMS ow tire pressure tetae.

Environmenta hazards, however, can harm the paint's protective properties, if proper care is not taken. Here are some exampes of possibe damage, with tips on how to prevent them. qetching Caused by Acid Rain or Industria Faout Occurrence Industria poutants and vehice emissions drift into the air and mix with rain or dew to form acids. These acids can sette on a vehice's finish. As the water evaporates, the acid becomes concentrated and can damage the finish. And the onger the acid remains on the surface, the greater the chance is for damage. Prevention It is necessary to wash and wax your vehice to preserve its finish according to the instructions in this section. These steps shoud be taken immediatey after you suspect that acid rain has setted on your vehice's finish. qdamage Caused by Bird Dropping, Insects, or Tree Sap Occurrence Bird droppings contain acids. If these aren't removed they can eat away the cear and coor base coat of the vehice's paintwork. When insects stick to the paint surface and decompose, corrosive compounds form. These can erode the cear and coor base coat of the vehice's paintwork if they are not removed. Tree sap wi harden and adhere permanenty to the paint finish. If you scratch the sap off whie it is hard, some vehice paint coud come off with it. Prevention It is necessary to have your Mazda washed and waxed to preserve its finish according to the instructions in this section. This shoud be done as soon as possibe. Bird droppings can be removed with a soft sponge and water. If you are traveing and these are not avaiabe, a moistened tissue may aso take care of the probem. The ceaned area shoud be waxed according to the instructions in this section. Insects and tree sap are best removed with a soft sponge and water or a commerciay avaiabe chemica ceaner. Another method is to cover the affected area with dampened newspaper for one to two hours. After removing the newspaper, rinse off the oosened debris with water Form No.8V88-EA-06G

301 Mazda5_8V88-EA-06G_Edition1 Page300 Monday, May :29 AM Back pate (300,1) Maintenance and Care Appearance Care qwater Marks Occurrence Rain, fog, dew, and even tap water can contain harmfu mineras such as sat and ime. If moisture containing these mineras settes on the vehice and evaporates, the mineras wi concentrate and harden to form white rings. The rings can damage your vehice's finish. Prevention It is necessary to wash and wax your vehice to preserve its finish according to the instructions in this section. These steps shoud be taken immediatey after you find water marks on your vehice's finish. qpaint Chipping Occurrence Paint chipping occurs when grave thrown in the air by another vehice's tires hits your vehice. How to avoid paint chipping Keeping a safe distance between you and the vehice ahead reduces the chances of having your paint chipped by fying grave. The paint chipping zone varies with the speed of the vehice. For exampe, when traveing at 90 km/h (56 mph), the paint chipping zone is 50 m (164 ft). In ow temperatures a vehice's finish hardens. This increases the chance of paint chipping. Chipped paint can ead to rust forming on your Mazda. Before this happens, repair the damage by using Mazda touch-up paint according to the instructions in this section.
