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 9-9 .
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.

range of a sensor may narrow, or the sensors may not be able to detect obstructions.
  The system may not operate normally under the following conditions:




 Mud, ice, or snow is adhering to the sensor area (Returns to normal operation when
removed).
 


 The sensor area is frozen (Returns to normal operation when the ice is thawed).



 The sensor is covered by a hand.



 The sensor is excessively shocked.



 The vehicle is excessively tilted.



 Under extremely hot or cold weather conditions.



 The vehicle is driven on bumps, inclines, gravel, or grass covered roads.



 Anything which generates ultrasound is near the vehicle, such as another vehicle's
horn, the engine sound of a motorcycle, the air brake sound of a large-sized vehicle,
or another vehicle's sensors.
 


 The vehicle is driven in heavy rain or in road conditions causing water-splash.



 A commercially-available wing pole or an aerial for a radio transmitter is installed to
the vehicle.
 


 The vehicle is moving towards a tall or square curbstone.



 An obstruction is too close to the sensor. 

 Obstructions under the bumper may not be detected. Obstructions that are lower than
the bumper or thin which may have been initially detected but are no longer detected
as the vehicle approaches more closely.
  The following types of obstructions may not be detected:




 Thin objects such as wire or rope



 Things which absorb sonic waves easily such as cotton or snow



 Angular shaped objects



 Very tall objects, and those which are wide at the top



 Small, short objects 

 Always have the system inspected at an expert repairer, we recommend an Authorised
Mazda Repairer if any shock is applied to the bumpers, even in a minor accident. If the
sensors are deviated, they cannot detect obstructions.
  The system may have a malfunction if the beep does not operate. Consult an expert
repairer, we recommend an Authorised Mazda Repairer.
  The beeper which indicates a system malfunction may not be heard if the ambient
temperature is extremely cold, or mud, ice, or snow adheres to the sensor area.
