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.

WARNING
Do not drive the vehicle with the air
bag/front seat belt pretensioner system
warning beep sounding:
Driving the vehicle with the air bag/
front seat belt pretensioner system
warning beep sounding is dangerous.

heard again for a specified period of time.
NOTE
lSome models do not have the seat belt
warning function for the front passenger's
seat.
lPlacing heavy items on the front passenger

warning function to operate depending on
the weight of the item.
lTo allow the front passenger seat weight
sensor to function properly, do not place
and sit on an additional seat cushion on the
front passenger seat. The sensor may not
function properly because the additional
