Please note that the TPMS is not a
substitute for proper tire maintenance,
and it is the driver's responsibility to
maintain correct tire pressure, even if
under-inflation has not reached the level
to trigger illumination of the TPMS low
tire pressure telltale.
Your vehicle has also been equipped with
a TPMS malfunction indicator to indicate
when the system is not operating
properly.
The TPMS malfunction indicator is
combined with the low tire pressure
telltale. When the system detects a
malfunction, the telltale will flash for
approximately one minute and then
remain continuously illuminated. This
sequence will continue upon subsequent
vehicle start-ups as long as the
malfunction exists. When the
malfunction indicator is illuminated, the
system may not be able to detect or
signal low tire pressure as intended.
TPMS malfunctions may occur for a
variety of reasons, including the
installation of replacement or alternate
tires or wheels on the vehicle that
prevent the TPMS from functioning
properly. Always check the TPMS
malfunction telltale after replacing one
or more tires or wheels on your vehicle to
ensure that the replacement or alternate
tires and wheels allow the TPMS to
continue to function properly.
To avoid false readings, the system
samples for a little while before
indicating a problem. As a result it will
not instantaneously register a rapid tire
deflation or blow out.▼ If there is a problem with the Tire
Pressure Monitoring System
(TPMS)
If the TPMS warning light flashes, there
may be a problem with the system.
Consult an Authorized Mazda Dealer to
have the system inspected.
Refer to Tire Pressu
re Monitoring System
(TPMS) Warning Indication/Warning
Light (Flashing) on page 7-33.
In the following cases, the system cannot
recognize the tire pressures correctly and
the TPMS warning light may flash.
There is equipment or a device nearby
emitting radio signals the same as a tire
pressure sensor.
A metallic object such as a non-genuine
electronic device is installed near the
center of the dashboard (obstructs the
radio signals from the tire pressure
sensors to the receiver).
A device such as one of the following is
used in the cabin.
Electronic devices such as a computer.
Converter devices such as a DC-AC
converter.
There is a large accumulation of snow or
ice around the vehicle tires.
The battery in a tir e pressure sensor is
dead.
A wheel not equipped with a tire
pressure sensor is used.
Tires employing steel in the sidewall of
the tire are installed.
Tire chains are used.

▼When a tire pressure decreases
If the TPMS warning light turns on, a tire
pressure may be low. Inspect the tire
pressures and adjust them to the correct
inflation pressure.
Refer to Tire Pressure Monitoring System
(TPMS) Warning Ind
ication/Warning
Light (Turns on) on page 7-36.
▼ Tires and Wheels
CAUTION
When inspecting/adjusting the tire
pressures, do not apply excessive force to
the air valve of the tire pressure sensor.
Otherwise, the tire pressure sensor could be
damaged.
When changing tires and wheels
When changing the tires or wheels (such
as installing winter tires), it will be
necessary to register the ID signal code of
the tire pressure s
ensor to the TPMS.
Have an Authorized Mazda Dealer do the
registration or register the ID signal codes
of the tire pressure sensors using the
following procedure.
NOTE
The tire pressure sensors on each wheel
have a unique ID signal code. For the
TPMS to operate correctly, the ID signal
codes of the tire pressure sensors need to
be registered to the system.
1. Wait more than 19 minutes after
changing a tire or wheel.
2. After more than 19 minutes havepassed, drive the vehicle at a speed of
about 25 km/h (16 mph) or faster for 3
minutes or longer. While driving, the
ID signal codes of the tire pressure
sensors are automatically registered.
NOTE
If you drive the vehicle within 19 minutes
of changing a tire or wheel, the TPMS
warning light will flash because the ID
signal codes for the tire pressure sensors
were not registered. In this case, stop the
vehicle and register the ID signal codes of
the tire pressure sensors following the
procedure.
When replacing tires and wheels
CAUTION
When replacing the tires and wheels,
consult an Authorized Mazda Dealer
Otherwise, the tire pressure sensors could
be damaged when replacing them.
Do not install non-genuine wheels. If
wheels other than genuine ones are
installed, it may not be possible to install
the tire pressure sensors.
When replacing a tire or wheel, always
install the tire pressure sensor. The
following combinations of tires, wheels, or
tires and wheels are possible.
The tire pressure s ensor from the old
wheel is removed and it is installed to
the new wheel.
Only a tire is replaced without replacing
the tire pressure sensor and wheel.
A new tire pressure se nsor is installed to
a new wheel.
