Tires
TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM (TPMS)
For your safety, the CX-5 is equipped with TPMS that detects low
tire pressure in one or more tires. If the tire pressure starts getting
low in one or more tires, the system alerts the driver by turning on a
light in the instrument cluster (pp. 33-34) and sounding an alarm.
What to do? Don’t ignore the TPMS warning light. Stop and check your
tire pressure (when tires are cold) and inflate them to the proper pressure.
Properly inflated tires are safer, last longer, and increase fuel economy.
In the following cases, the TPMS must be “initialized” so the system can
operate normally.
• The tire pressure is adjusted (up or down) in one or more tires.
• A tire rotation is performed.
• Any tire or wheel is replaced.
• The vehicle’s battery is disconnected, replaced or completely dead.
Initialization Process (TPMS Warning Light is Illuminated)
1 Park the vehicle in a safe place and firmly apply the parking brake.
2 Let the tires cool, then adjust the tire pressure to the specified
pressure (See tire label located on the driver’s
side door opening) on all four (4) tires.
3 Switch the ignition ON, but leave the vehicle parked.
4 Push and hold the TPMS “Set Switch”
(left side of dash) until the TPMS warning light
in the instrument cluster flashes twice and
a beep sound is heard once.
CAUTION: If the TPMS “Set Switch” is pushed without adjusting the tire
pressure, the system cannot detect the normal tire pressure. The TPMS
warning light may not turn on, even if the tire pressure is low, or it may turn
on if the tire pressure is normal.
NOTE: Drastic changes in temperature or altitude may cause the TPMS
warning light to turn on.

IMPORTANT: When your
Mazda Connect display setting
is set on “AUTO”, the instrument
cluster and display may become
dimmer when the headlights are
on. If the display and instrument
cluster become too dim or too
bright when the headlights are on,
simply rotate the dimmer knob
located on your instrument cluster
to adjust the brightness.
Type A cluster is shown. Type B
cluster is similar, but with warning
lights in different locations.

1 • Rotate the knob to adjust the brightness
of the instrument cluster and other
dashboard illuminations.
ENGINE COOLANT TEMP LIGHTS Since this vehicle does not use an engine
coolant temperature gauge, red and blue
engine coolant temperature lights are used
to indicate high and low coolant temperature.
Red Coolant Temp Light Flashing: Engine is starting to run hot.
Drive slowly to reduce engine load.
On: Engine is overheating. Safely pull
over to the side of the road and turn
the engine off. Refer to the Owner’s
Manual for more information.
Blue Coolant Temp Light
On: Engine coolant is cold
and no warm air is available
for heater/defroster.
Off: Engine coolant is warm and
warm air is available for heater/
defroster. The light may stay on for a
few minutes after start-up when the
engine is cold, but the vehicle can
be driven with the light on or off.
TPMS NOTE: Low ambient temperature and/or high altitude causes tire pressures to
drop and may turn the TPMS warning light on. If the warning light comes on, check the
tire pressure and fill the tires as soon as possible, preferably before moving the vehicle
and warming up the tires. Tire pressure should be checked when the tires are cold.
2 • Push to toggle between trip meter (A & B).
• When a trip meter is selected, push and hold to
reset to zero.
