Signal Warning
Electronic Brake Force
Distribution System
Warning If the electronic brake force distribution control unit determines that some components
are operating incorrectly, the control unit may illuminate the brake system warning
light and the ABS warning light simultaneously. The problem is likely to be the
electronic brake force distribution system.
WARNING
Do not drive with both the ABS warning light and brake warning light
illuminated. Have the vehicle towed to an expert repairer, we recommend an
Authorised Mazda Repairer to have the brakes inspected as soon as possible:
Driving when the brake system warning light and ABS warning light are
illuminated simultaneously is dangerous.
When both lights are illuminated, the rear wheels could lock more quickly in an
emergency stop than under normal circumstances.
Charging System
Warning Indication/
Warning Light If the warning light illuminates while driving, it indicates a malfunction of the
alternator or of the charging system.
Drive to the side of the road and park off the right-of-way. Consult an expert repairer,
we recommend an Authorised Mazda Repairer. CAUTION
Do not continue driving when the charging system warning light is illuminated
because the engine could stop unexpectedly.

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.

Warning/Indicator Lights and Warning Sounds
Vehicle with run- À at tyres
Warning Action to be taken
When the warning light illuminates, and the warning
beep sound is heard when tyre pressure is too low in
one or more tyres.
WARNING
If the tyre pressure monitoring system warning
light illuminates or À 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 À 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 À 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. Inspect the tyres and adjust to the speci ¿ ed in À ation
pressure (page 6-34 ).
CAUTION
When replacing/repairing the tyres or wheels or both,
have the work done by an Authorised Mazda Repairer,
or the tyre pressure sensors may be damaged.
NOTE
Perform tyre pressure adjustment when the tyres are
cold. Tyre pressure will vary according to the tyre
temperature, therefore let the vehicle stand for 1
hour or only drive it 1.6 km (1 mile) or less before
adjusting the tyre pressures. When pressure is
adjusted on hot tyres to the cold in À ation pressure,
the TPMS warning light/beep may turn on after the
tyres cool and pressure drops below speci ¿ cation.
Also, an illuminated TPMS warning light, resulting
from the tyre air pressure dropping due to cold
ambient temperature, may turn off if the ambient
temperature rises. In this case, it will also be necessary
to adjust the tyre air pressures. If the TPMS warning
light illuminates due to a drop in tyre air pressure,
make sure to check and adjust the tyre air pressures.
After adjusting the tyre air pressures, it may require
some time for the TPMS warning light to turn off. If
the TPMS warning light remains illuminated, drive
the vehicle at a speed of at least 25 km/h (16 mph)
for 10 minutes, and then verify that it turns off.
Tyres lose air naturally over time and the TPMS
cannot tell if the tyres are getting too soft over time or
you have a À at. However, when you ¿ nd one low tyre
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 tyre 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 re ¿ lling the trouble tyre as leaks
are dangerous — take it to an expert repairer, we
recommend an Authorised Mazda Repairer which
has all the equipment to ¿ x tyres, TPMS systems and
order the best replacement tyre for your vehicle.
If the warning light illuminates again even after the tyre
pressures are adjusted, there may be a tyre puncture.
