Mazda 3 Owners Manual: Child-Restraint System Installation
Child-Restraint System Types
In this owner's manual, explanation of child-restraint systems is provided for the following three types of popular childrestraint systems: infant seat, child seat, booster seat.
NOTE
- Installation position is determined
by the type of child-restraint system.
Always read the manufacturer's instructions and this owner's manual carefully.
- Due to variations in the design of childrestraint systems, vehicle seats and seat belts, all child-restraint systems may not fit all seating positions. Before purchasing a child-restraint system, it should be tested in the specific vehicle seating position (or positions) where it is intended to be used. If a previously purchased child-restraint system does not fit, you may need to purchase a different one that will.
Infant seat
An infant seat provides restraint by bracing the infant's head, neck and back against the seating surface.
Child seat
A child seat restrains a child's body using the harness.
Booster seat
A booster seat is a child restraint accessory designed to improve the fit of the seat belt system around the child's body.
Child-Restraint Precautions
Mazda strongly urges the use of child-restraint systems for children small
enough to use
them.
You are required by law to use a child-restraint system for children in the U.S.
and Canada.
