CAUTION
 


¾ Do not apply accessories, stickers or fi lm to the windshield near the Forward Sensing
Camera (FSC).
  If the area in front of the Forward Sensing Camera (FSC) lens is obstructed, it will cause
the system to not operate correctly. Consequently, each system may not operate normally
which could lead to an unexpected accident.
 


¾ Do not disassemble or modify the Forward Sensing Camera (FSC).
 Disassembly or modifi cation of the Forward Sensing Camera (FSC) will cause a malfunction
or mistaken operation. Consequently, each system may not operate normally which could
lead to an unexpected accident.
 


¾ Heed the following cautions to assure the correct operation of the Forward Sensing Camera
(FSC).
 


¾ The direction of the Forward Sensing Camera (FSC) has been fi nely adjusted, therefore
do not change the installation position or remove the Forward Sensing Camera (FSC).
 


¾ Be careful not to scratch the Forward Sensing Camera (FSC) lens or allow it to get dirty.



¾ Do not remove the Forward Sensing Camera (FSC) cover.



¾ Do not place objects on the dashboard which refl ect light.



¾ Always keep the windshield glass around the camera clean by removing dirt or fogging.
Use the windshield defroster to remove fogging on the windshield.
 


¾ Consult an Authorized Mazda Dealer regarding cleaning the interior side of the
windshield around the Forward Sensing Camera (FSC).
 


¾ Consult an Authorized Mazda Dealer before performing repairs around the Forward
Sensing Camera (FSC).
 


¾ The Forward Sensing Camera (FSC) is installed to the windshield. Consult an Authorized
Mazda Dealer for windshield repair and replacement.
 


¾ When performing repairs around the rearview mirror, consult an Authorized Mazda
Dealer.
 


¾ Do not hit or apply strong force to the Forward Sensing Camera (FSC) or the area
around it. If strong force is applied, stop using the Lane-keep Assist System (LAS) & Lane
Departure Warning System (LDWS), the High Beam Control System (HBC), and the Smart
Brake Support (SBS) and consult an Authorized Mazda Dealer.
 


¾ The direction in which the Forward Sensing Camera (FSC) is pointed has been fi nely
adjusted. Do not change the installation position of the Forward Sensing Camera (FSC)
or remove it. Otherwise, it could result in damage or malfunction.

Tire Pressure Monitoring System
*Some models.
Tire Pressure Monitoring System *
The Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) monitors the air pressure of all four tires. If
the air pressure of one or more tires is too low, the system warns the driver by indicating the
tire pressure monitoring system warning light in the instrument cluster and operating a beep
sound. The system monitors the tire pressures indirectly using the data sent from the ABS
wheel speed sensors.
To allow the system to operate correctly, the system needs to be initialized with the speci¿ ed
tire pressure (value on the tire pressure label). Follow the procedure and perform the
initialization.
Refer to Tire Pressure Monitoring System Initialization on page 4-154 .
The warning light À ashes when the system has a malfunction.
Refer to Warning Indication/Warning Lights on page 4-33 .

Tire Pressure Monitoring System
N O T E
Because this system detects slight changes in tire conditions, the timing of the warning may
be faster or slower in the following cases:
 


y The size, manufacturer, or the type of tires is different from the speci¿ cation.



y The size, manufacturer, or the type of a tire is different from the others, or the level of tire
wear is excessively different between them.
 


y A run-À at tire, studless tire, snow tire, or tire chains are used.



y An emergency tire is used (The tire pressure monitoring system warning light may À ash
and then continue illuminating).
 


y A tire is repaired using the emergency À at tire repair kit.



y The tire pressure is excessively higher than the speci¿ ed pressure, or the tire pressure is
suddenly lowered for some reason such as a tire burst during driving.
 


y The vehicle speed is lower than about 15 km/h (9.3 mph) (including when the vehicle is
stopped), or the drive period is shorter than 5 minutes.
 


y The vehicle is driven on an extremely rough road or a slippery, icy road.



y Hard steering and rapid acceleration/deceleration are repeated such as during aggressive
driving on a winding road.
 


y Load on the vehicle is applied to a tire such as by loading heavy luggage to one side of
the vehicle.
 


y System initialization has not been implemented with the speci¿ ed tire pressure.

Tire Pressure Monitoring System
Initialization
In the following cases, system
initialization must be performed so that the
system operates normally.
 


y A tire pressure is adjusted.



y Tire rotation is performed.



y A tire or wheel is replaced.



y The battery is replaced or completely
drained.
 


y The tire pressure monitoring system
warning light is illuminated.


Initialization method

1. Park the car in a safe place and ¿ rmly
apply the parking brake.
2. Let the tires cool, then adjust the tire
pressure of all four (4) tires to the
speci¿ ed pressure indicated on the tire
pressure label located on the driver's
door frame (door open).
Refer to Tires on page 9-9 .
3. Switch the ignition ON.
4. Press and hold the tire pressure
monitoring system set switch and
verify that the tire pressure monitoring
system warning light in the instrument
cluster À ashes twice and a beep sound
is heard once.


CAUTION
If the system initialization is performed
without adjusting the tire pressure,
the system cannot detect the normal
tire pressure and it may not illuminate
the tire pressure monitoring system
warning light even if a tire pressure is
low, or it may illuminate the light even
if the pressures are normal.
Adjust the tire pressure on all four
tires 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 tire, the tire pressure
of all four tires may have decreased
naturally.
The system initialization will not be
performed if the switch is pressed while
the vehicle is being driven.
