For details, refer to Section 4, “Switches and Controls”, “ABS/TCS/DSC” or “Tyre Pressure
Monitoring System”.
Tyre Pressure Monitoring System
The Tyre Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) monitors the air pressure of all
four tyres. If the air pressure of one or more tyres is too low, the system warns the
driver by indicating the tyre pressure monitoring system warning light in the
instrument cluster and operating a beep sound.
In the following cases, system initialization must be performed so that the system
operates normally.
• A tyre pressure is adjusted.
• Tyre rotation is performed.
• A tyre or wheel is replaced.
• The battery is replaced or completely drained.
• The tyre pressure monitoring system warning
light is illuminated.
Diesel Particulate Filter
The diesel particulate filter collects and removes most of the particulate matter
(PM) in the exhaust gas of a diesel engine.
Inspect the engine oil level periodically. When inspecting the engine oil, if the
engine oil level is close to or exceeds the “X” mark on the dipstick, replace the
engine oil.
Whenever the engine oil is replaced, the vehicles engine control unit needs to be
reset according to the instruction in Workshop Manual as soon as possible.
Otherwise the engine oil warning light may illuminate. Consult an expert repairer
to reset the engine control unit, we recommend an Authorised Mazda Repairer.

If you have a flat tyre, drive slowly to a level spot that is well off the road and
out of the way of traffic to change the tyre.
In the event of a flat tyre, use the emergency flat tyre repair kit to repair the tyre
temporarily or use the temporary spare tyre.
• Overheating
1. Drive safely to the side of the road and park off the right-of-way.
2. Check whether coolant or steam is escaping from the engine compartment.
If steam is coming from the engine compartment:
Do not go near the front of the vehicle. Stop the engine.
Wait until the steam dissipates, then open the bonnet and start the engine.
If neither coolant nor steam is escaping:
Open the bonnet and idle the engine until it cools.

details concerning the warning light or sound in this guide. If the problem
cannot be resolved, contact an Authorised Mazda Repairer.
