Tire Pressure MonitoringSystem (TPMS)
▼Tire Pressure Monitoring System
(TPMS)
The TPMS monitors the air pressure of
each tire and if it decreases below the
specified
value, the system
notifies the
driver by turning on the TPMS warning
light in the instrument cluster and
indicating a message on the
multi-information display.
For the TPMS, the air pressure data
sent from the tire pressure sensors
installed on each wheel via radio signal
is received by the receiver unit in the
vehicle to monitor the tire pressures.
1. Tire pressure sensors
In addition, the current tire pressures
can be checked using the center
display.
Refer to the Vehicle Status Monitor
section in the Mazda Connect
Owner's Manual.
NOTE
When the ambient temperature is
low, the tire temperatures also
decrease. If the tire temperatures
decrease, the air pressure in the tires
will also decrease which could turn
on the TPMS warning light.
Before driving, visually inspect the
tires for abnormalities. Additionally,
inspect the tire pressures monthly. A
digital type air pressure gauge is
recommended for inspecting the tire
pressures.
The TPMS is not a substitute for your
own periodic inspection of the tires.
Always inspect the tires yourself
periodically.
CAUTION
Each tire, including the spare (if
provided), should be checked
monthly when cold and
inflated to
the inflation pressure recommended
by the vehicle manufacturer on the
vehicle placard or tire inflation
pressure label. (If your vehicle has
tires of a different size than the size
indicated on the vehicle placard or
tire inflation pressure label, you
should determine the proper tire inflation pressure for those tires.)
As an added safety feature, your
vehicle has been equipped with a
tire pressure monitoring system
(TPMS) that illuminates a low tire
pressure telltale when one or more
of your tires is significantly
under-inflated. Accordingly, when
the low tire pressure telltale
illuminates, you should stop and
check your tires as soon as possible,
and inflate them to the proper
pressure. Driving on a significantly
under-inflated tire causes the tire to
overheat and can lead to tire failure.
Under-inflation also reduces fuel
efficiency and tire tread life, and may
affect the vehicle's handling and
stopping ability.

▼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 Indication/
Warning Light (Turns on) on page
7-30.
▼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 sensor 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 have passed, 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 sensor 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 sensor is installed
to a new wheel.

▼Replacing a Wheel
WARNING
Always use wheels of the correct size
on your vehicle:
Using a wrong-sized wheel is
dangerous. Braking and handling could
be affected, leading to loss of control
and an accident.
CAUTION
A wrong-sized wheel may adversely
affect:
Tire fit
Wheel and bearing life
Ground clearance
Snow-chain clearance
Speedometer calibration
Headlight aim
Bumper height
Tire Pressure Monitoring System
NOTE
When replacing a wheel, make sure
the new one is the same as the
original factory wheel in diameter,
rim width, and offset (inset/outset).
For details, contact an Authorized
Mazda Dealer.
Proper tire balancing provides the best
riding comfort and helps reduce tread
wear. Out-of-balance tires can cause
vibration and uneven wear, such as
cupping and flat spots.

Parking in an Emergency
▼Parking in an Emergency
The hazard warning lights should
always be used when you stop on or
near a roadway in an emergency.
The hazard warning lights warn other
drivers that your vehicle is a traffic
hazard and that they must take
extreme caution when near it.
Depress the hazard warning flasher
and all the turn signals will flash. The
hazard warning indicator lights in the
instrument cluster flash simultaneously.
NOTE
The turn signals do not work when
the hazard warning lights are on.
Check local regulations about the
use of hazard warning lights while
the vehicle is being towed to verify
that it is not in violation of the law.

▼Security Indicator Light
If the security indicator light flashes
continuously while you are driving, do
not shut
off the engine. Go to an
Authorized Mazda Dealer and have it
checked. If the engine is shut off while
the indicator light is flashing, you will
not be able to restart it.
Make sure the key is within the
operat ional range for signal
transmission. Switch the ignition off,
and then restart the engine. If the
engine does not start after 3 or more
tries, contact an Authorized Mazda
Dealer.
NOTE
Because the electronic codes are reset
when the immobilizer system is
repaired, the keys are needed. Make
sure to bring all the keys to an
Authorized Mazda Dealer so that they
can be programmed.
