Mazda CX-3: Driving Tips / Overloading
WARNING
Be careful not to overload your vehicle:
The gross axle weight rating (GAWR) and
the gross vehicle weight rating (GVWR) of
the vehicle are on the Motor Vehicle Safety
Standard Label on the driver's door frame.
Exceeding these ratings can cause an
accident or vehicle damage. You can
estimate the weight of the load by
weighing the items (or people) before
putting them in the vehicle.
WARNING
Dry off brakes that have become wet by
driving slowly, releasing the accelerator
pedal and lightly applying the brakes
several times until the brake performance
returns to normal:
Driving with wet brakes is dangerous...
Your vehicle's suspension and underbody can be damaged if driven on
rough/uneven roads
or over speed bumps at excessive speeds. Use care and reduce speed when
traveling on
rough/uneven roads or over speed bumps...
Other information:
Your Mazda is equipped with ISOFIX/LATCH*1 lower anchors for attachment of
specially
designed ISOFIX/LATCH*1 child-restraint systems in the rear seats. Both anchors
must be
used, otherwise the seat will bounce around and put the child in danger. Most
ISOFIX/
LATCH*1 child-restraint systems must also be used in conjunction with a tether
to be
effective...
This chart indicates the applicable SRS equipment that will deploy depending
on the type of
collision.
(The illustrations are the representative cases of collisions.)
X: The SRS air bag equipment is designed to deploy in a collision.
*1 (With Front Passenger Occupant Classification System)
The front passenger front and side air bags and the seat belt
pretensioner are designed to deploy when the front
passenger occupant classification sensor detects a passenger sitting on the
front passenger's seat...

WARNING
Do not stack cargo or objects higher than
the seatbacks:
Cargo stacked higher than the seatbacks is
dangerous. It can block your view in the
rearview mirror, which might cause you to
hit another car when changing lanes.
Rearview mirror adjustment
Before driving, adjust the rearview mirror
to center on the scene through the rear
window.
