Tyre Pressure Monitoring System
Tyre Pressure Monitoring System
Initialization
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.
Initialization method
1. Park the car in a safe place and ¿ rmly
apply the parking brake.
2. Let the tyres cool, then adjust the tyre
pressure of all four (4) tyres to the
speci¿ ed pressure indicated on the tyre
pressure label located on the driver's
door frame (door open).
Refer to Tyres on page 9-8 .
3. Switch the ignition ON.
4. Press and hold the tyre pressure
monitoring system set switch and
verify that the tyre pressure monitoring
system warning light in the instrument
clusterÀ ashes twice and a beep sound
is heard once.
CAUTION
If the system initialization is performed
without adjusting the tyre pressure, the
system cannot detect the normal tyre
pressure and it may not illuminate the
tyre pressure monitoring system warning
light even if a tyre pressure is low, or
it may illuminate the light even if the
pressures are normal.
Adjust the tyre pressure on all four
tyres and initialize the system when
the warning light is turned on. If the
warning light turns on for a reason other
than a À at tyre, the tyre pressure of all
four tyres may have decreased naturally.
The system initialization will not be
performed if the switch is pressed while
the vehicle is being driven.

When Driving
Tyre Pressure Monitoring System
*Some models.
Tyre Pressure Monitoring System (Vehicle with Run-À at
Ty r e s )
*
The Tyre Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) monitors the pressure for each tyre.
If tyre pressure is too low in one or more tyres, the system will inform the driver via the
warning light in the instrument cluster and by the warning beep sound.
Refer to Warning Indication/Warning Lights on page 4-42 .
Refer to Tyre InÀ ation Pressure Warning Beep on page 7-53 .
The tyre pressure sensors installed on each wheel send tyre pressure data by radio signal to
the receiver unit in the vehicle.
Tyre pressure sensors
NOTE
When the ambient temperature is low due to seasonal changes, tyre temperatures are also
lower. When the tyre temperature decreases, the air pressure decreases as well. The TPMS
warning light may illuminate more frequently. Visually inspect the tyres daily before
driving, and check tyre pressures monthly with a tyre pressure gauge. When checking tyre
pressures, use of a digital tyre pressure gauge is recommended.
TPMS does not alleviate your need to check the pressure and condition of all four tyres
regularly.

Key Battery Replacement
If the buttons on the transmitter are
inoperable and the operation indicator
light does not À ash, the battery may be
dead.
Replace with a new battery before the
transmitter becomes unusable.
CAUTION
  Make sure the battery is installed
correctly. Battery leakage could
occur if it is not installed correctly.
  When replacing the battery, be
careful not to touch any of the
internal circuitry and electrical
terminals, bend the electrical
terminals, or get dirt in the
transmitter as the transmitter could
be damaged.
  There is the danger of explosion if
the battery is not correctly replaced.
  Dispose of used batteries according
to the following instructions.
 


 Insulate the plus and minus
terminals of the battery using
cellophane or equivalent tape.
 


 Never disassemble.



 Never throw the battery into ¿ re or
water.
 


 Never deform or crush. 

 Replace only with the same type
battery (CR2025 or equivalent).
The following conditions indicate that the
battery power is low:
 


 The KEY indicator light (green) À ashes
in the instrument cluster for about 30
seconds after the engine is turned off.
 


 The system does not operate and
the operation indicator light on the
transmitter does not À ash when the
buttons are pressed.
 


 The system's operational range is
reduced.
Replacing the battery at an Authorised
Mazda Repairer is recommended to
prevent damage to the key. If replacing the
battery by yourself, follow the instruction.

If Trouble Arises
Parking in an Emergency
*Some models.
Parking in an Emergency
The hazard warning lights should always
be used when you stop on or near a
roadway in an emergency.
The hazard warning lights warn other
drivers that your vehicle is a traf¿ c hazard
and that they must take extreme caution
when near it.
Depress the hazard warning À asher and
all the direction indicators will À ash. The
hazard warning indicator lights in the
instrument cluster À ash simultaneously.
NOTE

 The direction indicators do not work
when the hazard warning lights are
on.
  Check local regulations about the use
of hazard warning lights while the
vehicle is being towed to verify that
it is not in violation of the law.

If Trouble Arises
Flat Tyre
*Some models.
F l a t T y r e *
Either run-À at tyres or conventional tyres
are equipped on your Mazda depending on
the speci¿ cation, therefore the procedure
for repairing a À at tyre differs depending
on the type of tyre. Before driving, make
sure which type of tyre is equipped on
your Mazda. If you cannot identify your
tyre type, consult an expert repairer,
we recommend an Authorised Mazda
Repairer.
How to Identify Your Tyre Type
R u n -À at tyre
A run-À at tyre has a
and/or
indication on the side wall.
and/or
Conventional tyre
A conventional tyre does not have a
and/or indication on the side wall.
Vehicle with Run-À at Tyres
WARNING
Have the tyres checked or perform the
appropriate repair as soon as possible
by an expert repairer, we recommend
an Authorised Mazda Repairer:
When the À at tyre warning light
illuminates 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.
When the À at tyre warning light
illuminates or the tyre pressure
warning beep sound is heard, decrease
vehicle speed immediately and avoid
sudden manoeuvring and braking.
If a run-À at tyre is punctured, the FLAT
TIRE warning light illuminates in the
instrument cluster, and a beep sound is
heard for about 30 seconds.
NOTE
Until the À at tyre is changed, the beep
sound is heard for about 30 seconds
every time the ignition is switched ON.

If Trouble Arises
Warning/Indicator Lights and Warning Sounds
*Some models.
Signal Warning
Power Steering
Malfunction Indicator
Light The light illuminates if the electric power steering has a malfunction.
If the light illuminates, stop the vehicle in a safe place and do not operate the steering
wheel. There is no problem if the light turns off after a while. Contact an expert
repairer, we recommend an Authorised Mazda Repairer if the light illuminates
continuously.
NOTE
If the indicator light illuminates, the power steering will not operate normally. If
this happens, the steering wheel can still be operated, however, the operation may
feel heavy compared to normal, or the steering wheel could vibrate when turning.
Repeatedly jerking the steering wheel left and right while the vehicle is stopped
or moving extremely slowly will cause the power steering system to go into
protective mode which will make the steering feel heavy, but this does not indicate
a problem. If this occurs, park the vehicle safely and wait several minutes for the
system to return to normal.
Contact Authorised Mazda Repairer and Have Vehicle Inspected
If any of the following warning lights or the indicator light turns on/À ashes, the system
may have a malfunction. Contact an expert repairer, we recommend an Authorised Mazda
