WARNING:
Handling a side air bag improperly can accidentally operate (deploy) the air bag, which may seriously injure you. Read the service warnings/cautions in the Workshop Manual before handling the front seat (side air bag integrated)..
CAUTION:
If the slide bar is operated after the front seat is removed, the left/right slide positions will deviate and the adjuster unit could be damaged after the front seat is installed. After removing a front seat, do not operate the slider lever.
Verify that there are no malfunctions in the forward/back slide of the seat and in the adjuster unit after installing a front seat.
When performing the procedure with a front seat removed from the vehicle, perform the procedure on a clean cloth so as not to damage or soil the seat.
When the passenger's seat is removed, perform the seat weight sensor inspection using the M-MDS after installing the passenger's seat..
When the passenger's seat is replaced with a new one, perform the seat weight sensor calibration using the M-MDS..

Fuel and Engine Exhaust Precautions
Fuel Requirements
Vehicles with catalytic converters or oxygen sensors must use ONLY UNLEADED FUEL,
which will reduce exhaust emissions and keep spark plug fouling to a minimum.
Your Mazda will perform best with fuel listed in the table.
Fuel with a rating lower than 87 octane (91 RON) could ...
Immobilizer System
The immobilizer system allows the engine to start only with a key the system
recognizes.
If someone attempts to start the engine with an unrecognized key, the engine
will not start, thereby helping to prevent the theft of your vehicle.
If you have a problem with the immobilizer system or the k ...
