Mazda CX-3: Rear Seat / Armrest (Some models)
The rear armrest in the center of the rear
seatback can be used (no occupant in the
center seat) or placed upright.

WARNING
Never position the shoulder portion of a
seat belt over the armrest:
Positioning the shoulder portion of a rear
seat belt over the armrest is dangerous as it
cannot provide adequate protection in a
collision and could result in serious injuries.
Never put your hands and fingers around
the moving parts of the seat and armrest:
Putting your hands and fingers around the
moving parts of the seat and armrest is
dangerous as they could get injured.
CAUTION
- Be careful not to apply excessive force to
the armrest such as by sitting on it.
Otherwise, it could be deformed or
damaged.
- When storing the armrest, return the cup
holder to its original position. If the
armrest is stored without returning the
cup holder to its original position, the
cup holder could be deformed or
damaged.
By lowering the rear seatbacks the luggage
compartment space can be expanded.
WARNING
Do not drive the vehicle with occupants on
folded down seatbacks or in the luggage
compartment...
Your vehicle is equipped with head
restraints on all outboard seats and the rear
center seat. The head restraints are
intended to help protect you and the
