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 fi rmly
apply the parking brake.
2. Let the tyres cool, then adjust the tyre
pressure of all four (4) tyres to the
specifi ed pressure indicated on the tyre
pressure label located on the door jamb
of the driver's door (door open).
Refer to Tyres on page 9-13 .
3. Switch the ignition ON.
4. While the vehicle is parked, press
and hold the tyre pressure monitoring
system set switch and verify that
the tyre pressure monitoring system
warning light in the instrument cluster
fl 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 fl 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.

Air-Conditioning System
Operating Tips
 












 Operate the air-conditioning system with
the engine running.
 


 To prevent the battery from being
discharged, do not leave the fan control
dial on for a long period of time with the
ignition switched ON when the engine is
not running.
 


(With i-stop)
 The airfl ow amount may decrease
slightly while the i-stop function is
operating.
 


 Clear all obstructions such as leaves,
snow and ice from the bonnet and the
air inlet in the cowl grille to improve the
system effi ciency.




 Use the air-conditioning system to defog
the windows and dehumidify the air.
 


 The recirculate mode should be used
when driving through tunnels or while in
a traffi c jam, or when you would like to
shut off outside air for quick cooling of
the interior.
 


 Use the outside air position for
ventilation or windscreen defrosting.
 


 If the vehicle has been parked in direct
sunlight during hot weather, open the
windows to let warm air escape, then
run the air-conditioning system.
(With A/C switch)
 




 Run the air conditioner about 10 minutes
at least once a month to keep internal
parts lubricated.
 


 Have the air conditioner checked before
the weather gets hot. Lack of refrigerant
may make the air conditioner less
effi cient.

 The refrigerant specifi cations are
indicated on a label attached to the
inside of the engine compartment. Check
the label before refi lling the refrigerant.
If the wrong type of refrigerant is used,
it could result in a serious malfunction
of the air conditioner.
  For details, consult an expert repairer,
we recommend an Authorised Mazda
Repairer.
