Essential Safety Equipment
SRS Air Bags
Form No. 8R21-EA-02G
The supplemental restraint systems (SRS) have two basic subsystems:
The air bag system with inflators and air bags.
The electric system with crash sensors and diagnostic module.
The air bags are mounted in the following locations: the center of the steering wheel, the
passenger-side of the dashboard, and in the outboard sides of the front seatbacks. They are
out of sight until activated.
How the Air Bags Work
When air bag crash sensors detect a frontal or side impact of greater than moderate force,
an electrical current is sent to the inflators.
Gases are produced to inflate the air bags and after the inflation, the air bags quickly
deflate.
The air bags will function only once. After that,
the air bags will not work again and
must be replaced.
Only an Authorized Mazda Dealer can replace the systems.
