TPMS initialization MAZDA MODEL CX-5 2014 Owners Manual (in English)

Black plate (166,1)
Adjust the tire pressure to the correct tire
pressure and initialize TPMS. Refer to the
specification charts (page 9-8).
NOTE
lPerform tire pressure adjustment when the
tires are cold. Tire pressure will vary
according to the tire temperature, therefore
let the vehicle stand for 1 hour or only drive
it 1.6 km (1 mile) or less before adjusting
the tire pressures. When pressure is
adjusted on hot tires to the cold inflation
pressure, the TPMS warning light/beep may
turn on after the tires cool and pressure
drops below specification.
Also, an illuminated TPMS warning light,
resulting from the tire air pressure dropping
due to cold ambient temperature will
remain illuminated even if the ambient
temperature rises. In this case, it will also
be necessary to adjust the tire air pressures.
If the TPMS warning light illuminates due
to a drop in tire air pressure, make sure to
check and adjust the tire air pressures.
lTires lose air naturally over time and the
TPMS cannot tell if the tires are getting too
soft over time or you have a flat. However,
when you find one low tire in a set of four-
that is an indication of trouble; you should
have someone drive the vehicle slowly
forward so you can inspect any low tire for
cuts and any metal objects sticking through
tread or sidewall. Put a few drops of water
in the valve stem to see if it bubbles
indicating a bad valve. Leaks need to be
addressed by more than simply reinflating
the tire as leaks are dangerous - take it to
an Authorized Mazda Dealer.
If the warning light illuminates again even
after the tire pressures are adjusted and the
TPMS initialization is performed, there
may be a tire puncture. Replace the
punctured tire with the temporary spare
tire (page 7-7).
Warning light flashes
If the tire pressure monitoring system has
a malfunction, the tire pressure warning
light flashes for about 1 minute when the
ignition is switched ON and then
continues illuminating. Have your vehicle
checked by an Authorized Mazda Dealer
as soon as possible.
qKEY Warning Light (Red)/KEY
Indicator Light (Green)

CAUTION
If the above message is indicated, or
the push button start indicator light
(amber) flashes, the engine may not

Tire Pressure Monitoring System
lThe Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) monitors the air pressure of all four
wheels. If the air pressure of one or more tires is too low, the system warns the driver by
indicating the tire pressure monitoring system warning light in the instrument cluster
(the warning is also indicated in the display on the type A instrument cluster) and
operating a beep sound. The system monitors the tire pressures indirectly using the data
sent from the ABS wheel speed sensors.
To allow the system to operate correctly, the system needs to be initialized with the
specified tire pressure (value on the tire pressure label). Follow the procedure and
perform the initialization.
lFor vehicles with the type A instrument cluster, check the vehicle condition or have the
vehicle inspected at an Authorized Mazda Dealer according to the indication.
lA system malfunction or operation conditions are indicated by a warning.
Refer to Warning/Indicator Lights on page 4-22.
Refer to Tire Inflation Pressure Warning Beep on page 7-34.
