correctly. Battery leakage could occur
if it is not installed correctly.
When replacing the battery, be
careful not to touch any of the
internal circuitry and electrical
terminals, bend the electrical
terminals, or get dirt in the
transmitter as the transmitter could

▼Tire Pressure Monitoring System
(TPMS) Warning Indication/
Warning Light (Flashing)
If there is a problem with the TPMS or
the voltage of a tire pressure sensor
decreases, the TPMS warning light
flashes and a message is displayed on
the multi-information display. Have
your vehicle inspected by an
Authorized Mazda Dealer.
WARNING
Do not drive the vehicle at high
speeds if the TPMS warning light turns
on or flashes:
Driving the vehicle at high speeds
while the TPMS warning light is turned
on or flashing is dangerous because
the brake performance and the
steering wheel operability will be
reduced. If the vehicle is driven at high
speeds or the brakes are suddenly
applied, it could lead to an accident.
Gradually apply the brakes to lower the
vehicle's speed.
Do not ignore the TPMS warning light
when it is turned on or flashing:
Continuing to drive the vehicle while
ignoring the illumi
nation/flashing of
the TPMS warning light is dangerous
because a tire may burst which could
lead to an accident. Take appropriate
measures as soon as possible.
▼ KEY Warning Indication/Warning
Light (Red)
“Keyless Entry System Malfunction.
Have the Vehicle Inspected” is
displayed
This message is displayed if the
advanced keyless entry & push button
start system has a problem.
Contact an Authorized Mazda Dealer.
CAUTION
If the message is indicated, or the push
button start indicator light (amber)
flashes, the engine may not start. If the
engine cannot be started, try starting it
using the emergency operation for
starting the engine, and have the
vehicle inspected at an Authorized
Mazda Dealer as soon as possible.
Refer to Emergency Operation for
Starting the Engine on page 4-9.
“Key Not Detected” is displayed
If the presence of the key cannot be
detected (dead battery, battery
malfunction, no key), it is displayed
when the driver attempts to start the
engine (push button start operation,
brake pedal depression).
Displayed when it is determined that
a key that was in the vehicle has
been removed from the vehicle. (Key
taken out warning. Other than
IG-OFF).

CX-50_8KB8-EA-22A_Edition2_new 2022-1-6 14:55:18
CAUTION
Adjust the tire pressures while the
tires are cool. Because the air
pressure in the tires fluctuates
depending on the temperature,
before adjusting the tire pressures,
let the vehicle sit for an hour or drive
it only within a 1.6 km (1 mile)
distance. If the tire pressures are
adjusted while the tires are warm,
the tire pressures may decrease
below the
specified air pressure after
cooling down which could turn on
the warning light. In addition,
because the air pressure in the tires
decreases when the ambient
temperature is low, if the ambient
temperature increases, an
illuminated TPMS warning light may
turn off. Under any circumstances,
always adjust the tire pressures while
the tires are cool.
After adjusting the tire pressures, the
TPMS warning light turns off. If the
TPMS warning light does not turn
off,
drive the vehicle at a speed of about
25 km (16 mph) or faster for 3
minutes or longer and make sure the
warning light turns off.
If the TPMS warning light remains on
even after adjusting the tire pressures,
one of the tires may have a puncture.
▼ KEY Indicator Light (Green)

“Low Key Fob Battery. Replace
Battery” is displayed/When the light
is flashing
When the key battery is low, the
indication is displayed when the
ignition is switched OFF.
