ABS Warning Light
The light remains on if the system has a
problem.
Have your vehicle inspected by an
Authorized Mazda Dealer.
WARNING
If the brake system warning light
and the ABS warning light turn on at
the same time, stop the vehicle in a
safe place immediately and contact an
Authorized Mazda Dealer.
The rear wheels could lock more
quickly in an emergency stop than
under normal circumstances which
could result in an accident.
Master Warning Light
The light turns on if the system has a
problem.
Check the contents of the message
displayed on the center display or in
the instrument cluster and take the
necessary action.

AWD Warning Light
The light turns on if the system has a
problem or if the tire sizes do not
match.
Check the contents of the message
displayed and take the necessary
action.
Tire Pressure MonitoringSystem (TPMS) Warning Light (Flashing)
The light flashes if there is a
malfunction in the system.
Contact 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 driv e 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.

What to do when thevehicle is stuck
WARNING
Do not spin the wheels at more than
56 km/h (35 mph), and do not allow
anyone to stand behind a wheel when
pushing the vehicle:
When the vehicle is stuck, spinning the
wheels at high speed is dangerous. The
spinning tire could overheat and
explode. This could cause serious
injuries.
CAUTION
Too much rocking may cause EV
Transaxle failure, and tire damage.
If you must rock the vehicle to free it
from snow, sand or mud, depress the
accelerator slightly and slowly move
the selector lever from D to R position.

Inspecting the Tires
About Tires
For reasons of proper performance,
safety, and better energy efficiency,
always maintain recommended tire
inflation pressures and stay within the
recommended load limits and weight
distribution.
WARNING
Using Different Tire Types.
Driving your vehicle with different
types of tires is dangerous. It could
cause poor handling and poor braking;
leading to loss of control.
Except for the limited use of the
temporary spare tire, use only the
same type tires (radial, bias-belted,
bias-type) on all four wheels.
Using Wrong-Sized Tires.
Using any other tire size than what is
specified for the vehicle (page
10-71)is dangerous. It could seriously
affect ride, handling, ground
clearance, tire clearance, and
speedometer calibration. This could
cause you to have an accident. Use
only tires that are the correct size
specified for the vehicle.
Inspecting tire inflation pressure
WARNING
Always inflate the tires to the correct
pressure.
Overinflation or underinflation of tires
is dangerous. Adverse handling or
unexpected tire failure could result in a
serious accident.
Refer to Tires on page 10-71.
Use only a Mazda-genuine tire valve
cap.
Use of a non-genuine part is
dangerous as the correct tire air
pressure cannot be maintained if the
tire valve becomes damaged. If the
vehicle is driven under this condition,
the tire air pressure will decrease
which could result in a serious
accident. Do not use any part for the
tire valve cap that is not a
Mazda-genuine part.
Inspect all tire pressures monthly
(including the spare) when the tires are
cold. Maintain recommended
pressures for the best ride, handling ,
and minimum tire wear.
Refer to the specification charts (page
10-71).
NOTE
Cold inflation pressure
The cold inflation pressure is the
pressure measured under ambient
temperatures before the vehicle is
driven.
Maximum inflation pressure
The maximum inflation pressure is
the upper limit of the cold inflation
pressure designated by the tire
manufacturer.
Recommended inflation pressure
The recommended inflation pressure
is the cold inflation pressure
necessary for maintaining the
performance of your Mazda.
Underinflation or overinflation can
cause a harsh ride, reduced fuel
economy, a greater possibility of
damage from road hazards, uneven
and accelerated tire wear, and poor
sealing of the tire bead, which will
deform the wheel and cause
separation of tire from rim.

Keep your tire pressure at the correct
levels. If one frequently needsinflating, have it inspected.Rotating the Tires
WARNING
Rotate tires periodically.
Irregular tire wear is dangerous. To
equalize tread wear for maintaining
good performance in handling and
braking , rotate the tires periodically or
sooner if irregular wear develops.
Please refer to Scheduled maintenance
for your tire rotation interval.
During rotation, inspect them for
correct balance.
Do not include (TEMPORARY USE
ONLY) spare tire in rotation.
Also, inspect them for uneven wear
and damage. Abnormal wear is usually
caused by one or a combination of the
following:
Incorrect tire pressureImproper wheel alignmentOut-of-balance wheelSevere braking
After rotation, inflate all tire pressures
to specification (page 10-71) and
inspect the lug nuts for tightness.

CX-90_8KG7-EA-22L_Edition1_new 2022-11-17 16:05:04

CAUTION
Rotate unidirectional tires and radial
tires that have an asymmetrical tread
pattern or studs only from front to rear,
not from side to side. Tire performance
will be reduced if rotated from side to
side.
Replacing a Tire or aWheel
WARNING
Always use tires that are in good
condition.
Driving with worn tires is dangerous.
Reduced braking , steering , and
traction could result in an accident.
Replace all four tires at the same
time.
Replacing just one tire is dangerous. It
could cause poor handling and poor
braking resulting in loss of vehicle
control. Mazda strongly recommends
that you replace all four tires at the
same time.
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
If a tire wears evenly, a wear indicator
will appear as a solid band across the
tread.
