 Heed the following cautions to assure the correct operation of the Forward Sensing Camera (FSC).
 Be careful not to scratch the Forward Sensing Camera (FSC) lens or allow it to get dirty. Do not remove the Forward Sensing Camera (FSC) cover. Do not place objects on the dashboard which refl ect light. Always keep the windshield glass around the camera clean by removing dirt or fogging. Use the windshield defroster to remove fogging on the windshield.
 Consult an Authorized Mazda Dealer regarding cleaning the interior side of the windshield around the Forward Sensing Camera (FSC).
 Consult an Authorized Mazda Dealer before performing repairs around the Forward Sensing Camera (FSC).
 The Forward Sensing Camera (FSC) is installed to the windshield. Consult an Authorized Mazda Dealer for windshield repair and replacement.
 When cleaning the windshield, do not allow glass cleaners or similar cleaning fl uids to get on the Forward Sensing Camera (FSC) lens. In addition, do not touch the Forward
Sensing Camera (FSC) lens.
 When performing repairs around the rearview mirror, consult an Authorized Mazda Dealer.
 Consult an Authorized Mazda Dealer regarding cleaning of the camera lens. Do not hit or apply strong force to the Forward Sensing Camera (FSC) or the area around it. If the Forward Sensing Camera (FSC) is severely hit or if there are cracks or damage
caused by fl ying gravel or debris in the area around it, stop using the following systems
and consult an Authorized Mazda Dealer.

adjusted. Do not change the installation position of the Forward Sensing Camera (FSC)
or remove it. Otherwise, it could result in damage or malfunction.
 Always use tires for all wheels that are of the specifi ed size, and the same manufacturer, brand, and tread pattern. In addition, do not use tires with signifi cantly diff erent wear
patterns on the same vehicle as the system may not operate normally.
 The Forward Sensing Camera (FSC) includes a function for detecting a soiled windshield and informing the driver, however, depending on the conditions, it may not detect plastic
shopping bags, ice or snow on the windshield. In such cases, the system cannot accurately
determine a vehicle ahead and may not be able to operate normally. Always drive carefully
and pay attention to the road ahead.

Tire Pressure Monitoring System
*Some models.
Tire Pressure Monitoring System *
The Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) monitors the pressure for each tire.
If tire pressure is too low in one or more tires, the system will inform\
the driver via the
warning light in the instrument cluster and by the warning beep sound.
Refer to Warning Indication/Warning Lights on page 4-33 .
Refer to Tire Infl ation Pressure Warning Beep on page 7-42 .

The tire pressure sensors installed on each wheel send tire pressure dat\
a by radio signal to
the receiver unit in the vehicle.

Tire pressure sensors
NOTE
When the ambient temperature is low due to seasonal changes, tire temperatures are also
lower. When the tire temperature decreases, the air pressure decreases as well. The TPMS
warning light may illuminate more frequently. Visually inspect the tires daily before driving,
and check tire pressures monthly with a tire pressure gauge. When checking tire pressures,
use of a digital tire pressure gauge is recommended.


TPMS does not alleviate your need to check the pressure and condition of\
all four tires
regularly.

System Error Activation
When the warning light fl ashes, there
may be a system malfunction. Consult an
Authorized Mazda Dealer.
A system error activation may occur in the
following cases:
   When there is equipment or a device
near the vehicle using the same radio
frequency as that of the tire pressure
sensors.
   When a metallic device such as a non-
genuine navigation system is equipped
near the center of the dashboard, which
may block radio signals from the tire
pressure sensor to the receiver unit.
   When using the following devices in the
vehicle that may cause radio interference
with the receiver unit.
 A digital device such as a personal computer.
 A current converter device such as a DC-AC converter.
   When excess snow or ice adheres to the
vehicle, especially around the wheels.
   When the tire pressure sensor batteries
are exhausted.
   When using a wheel with no tire
pressure sensor installed.
   When using tires with steel wire
reinforcement in the side walls.
   When using tire chains.
Tires and Wheels
CAUTION
When inspecting or adjusting the tire
air pressures, do not apply excessive
force to the stem part of the wheel unit.
The stem part could be damaged.

Changing tires and wheels
The following procedure allows the TPMS
to recognize a tire pressure sensor's unique
ID signal code whenever tires or wheels
are changed, such as changing to and from
winter tires.
NOTE
Each tire pressure sensor has a unique
ID signal code. The signal code must be
registered with the TPMS before it can
work. The easiest way to do it is to have an
Authorized Mazda Dealer change your tire
and complete ID signal code registration.

When having tires changed at an
Authorized Mazda Dealer
When an Authorized Mazda Dealer
changes your vehicle's tires, they will
complete the tire pressure sensor ID signal
code registration.
