Warning Light
*
If the tyre pressure monitoring system has a malfunction, the tyre pressure warning
light fl ashes for about 1 minute when the ignition is switched ON and then continues
illuminating. Have your vehicle checked by an expert repairer, we recommend an
Authorised Mazda Repairer as soon as possible.
WARNING
If the tyre pressure monitoring system warning light illuminates or fl ashes, or the tyre
pressure warning beep sound is heard, decrease vehicle speed immediately and avoid
sudden manoeuvring and braking:
If the tyre pressure monitoring system warning light illuminates or fl ashes, or the
tyre pressure warning beep sound is heard, it is dangerous to drive the vehicle at high
speeds, or perform sudden manoeuvring or braking. Vehicle drivability could worsen
and result in an accident.
To determine if you have a slow leak or a fl at, pull over to a safe position where you
can check the visual condition of the tyre and determine if you have enough air
to proceed to a place where air may be added and the system monitored again by
an expert repairer, we recommend an Authorised Mazda Repairer or a tyre repair
station.
Do not ignore the TPMS Warning Light: Ignoring the TPMS warning light is dangerous, even if you know why it is
illuminated. Have the problem taken care of as soon as possible before it develops
into a more serious situation that could lead to tyre failure and a dangerous accident.
