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

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 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.
