2020 MAZDA MODEL 3-SEDAN snow chains

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.

Rear View Monitor*
▼Rear View Monitor
The rear view monito
r provides visual
images of the rear of the vehicle when
reversing.
WA R N I N G
Always drive carefully confirming the safety
of the rear and the surrounding conditions
by looking directly with your eyes:
Reversing the vehicle by only looking at the
screen is dangerous as it may cause an
accident or a collision with an object. The
rear view monitor is only a visual assist
device when reversing the vehicle. The
images on the screen may be different from
the actual conditions.
CAUTION
 Do not use the rear view monitor under
the following conditions: Using the rear
view monitor under the following
conditions is dangerous and could result
in injury or vehicle damage or both.
 Icy or snow-covered roads.
 Tire chains or a temporary spare tire is
installed.
 The vehicle is on a road incline.
When the display is cold, images may
course across the monitor or the screen
and may be dimmer than usual, which
could cause difficulty in confirming the
surrounding conditions of the vehicle.
Always drive carefully confirming the
safety of the rear and the surrounding
conditions by looking directly with your
eyes.
 Do not apply excessive force to the
camera. The camera position and angle
may deviate.
 Do not disassemble, modify, or remove it
as it may no longer be waterproof.
 The camera cover is made of plastic. Do
not apply degreasing agents, organic
solvents, wax, or glass coating agents to
the camera cover. If any are spilled on
the cover, wipe
off with a soft cloth
immediately.
 Do not rub the camera cover forcefully
with an abrasive or hard brush. The
camera cover or lens may be scratched
which might affect the images.
NOTE
If water, snow, or mud is stuck on the
camera lens, wipe it off using a soft
cloth. If it cannot be wiped off, use a
mild detergent.
If the camera temperature changes
rapidly (Hot to cold, cold to hot), the
rear view monitor may not operate
correctly.
When replacing the tires, consult an
Authorized Mazda Dealer. Replacing the
tires could result in deviation of the
guide lines which appear on the display.
