Child-Restraint Precautions
Mazda strongly urges the use of child-restraint systems for children small enough to use
them.
Mazda recommends use of a Mazda genuine child-restraint system or one that complies with
the UNECE
*1
44 regulation. If you would like to purchase a Mazda genuine child-restraint
system, please contact an Authorised Mazda Dealer.
Check your local and state or provincial laws for speci¿ c requirements regarding the safety
of children riding in your vehicle.
*1 UNECE stands for United Nations Economic Commission for Europe.
Whatever child-restraint system you consider, please pick the appropriate one for the age
and size of the child, obey the law and follow the instructions that come with the individual
child-restraint system.
A child who has outgrown child-restraint systems should sit in the rear and use seat belts.
The child-restraint system should be installed on the rear seat.
Statistics con¿ rm that the rear seat is the best place for all children up to 12 years of age-the
more so with a supplementary restraint system (air bags).
A rear-facing child-restraint system should NEVER be used in the front passenger seat with
the air bag system activated. The front passenger's seat is also the least preferred seat for
other child-restraint systems.
For some models, we have provided a deactivation switch that will disable front passenger
air bag inÀ ation. Do not switch off the front passenger air bag without reading the “Front
Passenger Air Bag Deactivation Switch” (page 2-47 ).
