Low Washer Fluid Level Warning
Light*

(Illuminate)Tire Pressure
Monitoring System Warning Light
*
When the warning light illuminates, and
the warning beep sound is heard (about 3
seconds), tire pressure is too low in one or
more tires.
WARNING
If the tire pressure monitoring system warning light illuminates or flashes,
or the tire pressure warning beep
sound is heard, decrease vehicle
speed immediately and avoid sudden
maneuvering and braking: If the tire pressure monitoring system
warning light illuminates or flashes, or
the tire pressure warning beep sound
is heard, it is dangerous to drive the
vehicle at high speeds, or perform
sudden maneuvering or braking.
Vehicle drivability could worsen and
result in an accident.
To determine if you have a slow leak or
a flat, pull over to a safe position where
you can check the visual condition
of the tire and determine if you have
enough air to proceed to a place where
air may be added and the system
monitored again by an Authorized
Mazda Dealer or a tire 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 tire failure and a
dangerous accident. Inspect the tires and adjust to the specified
inflation pressure (page
6-41).
NOTE
Perform 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.
Tires 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.

the ignition is not switched OFF and
all the doors are closed, the beep which
sounds outside of the vehicle will be heard
6 times, the beep which sounds inside
the vehicle will be heard 6 times, and the

the doors are closed, a beep will be heard
in the cabin 6 times and the KEY warning
light (red) in the instrument cluster turns
on continuously to notify the driver that
the ignition has not been switched OFF.
NOTE
Because the key utilizes low-intensity
radio waves, the Key Removed From
Vehicle Warning may activate if the key is
carried together with a metal object or it
is placed in a poor signal reception area.
Request Switch Inoperable
Warning Beep (With the advanced
keyless function)
If the request switch is pressed with the
door open or ajar, or the ignition is not
switched OFF with a key being carried,
a beep will be heard outside for about 2
seconds to notify the driver that the door
or trunk lid cannot be locked.
Key Left-in-trunk Warning Beep
(With the advanced keyless
function)
If the key is left in the trunk with all the
doors locked and the trunk lid closed, a
beep will be heard outside for about 10
seconds to notify the driver that the key is
in the trunk. In this case, take out the key
by pressing the electric trunk lid opener
and opening the trunk lid. The key taken
out of the trunk may not operate because
its functions have been temporarily
stopped. To restore the key's functions,
perform the applicable procedure (page
3-7).
Key Left-in-vehicle Warning Beep
(With the advanced keyless
function)
If all the doors and trunk are locked using
another key while the key is left in the
cabin, the beep which sounds outside of
the vehicle will be heard for about 10
seconds to notify the driver that the key
is in the cabin. In this case, take out the
key by opening the door. A key taken
out of the vehicle using this method may
not operate because its functions have
been temporarily stopped. To restore the
key's functions, perform the applicable
procedure (page 3-7).
Tire Inflation Pressure Warning
Beep*
The warning beep sound will be heard
for about 3 seconds when there is any
abnormality in tire inflation pressures
(page 4-93).
