Video tutorial

In this video, we will see how to enable or disable the passenger airbag on a Mazda CX5 MK1: this operation may be necessary when we need to transport a very small child in the front seat, who requires a rear-facing car seat. In fact, for very small children, the airbag can be extremely dangerous, so it is necessary to deactivate it. We will use the manual ignition key of the car, which we will use in the specific lock located inside the glove compartment, on the left side.

We will insert the key and move it to "on" or "off" according to the current needs. When the airbag is deactivated, a warning light will illuminate on the dashboard.
