If dirt or ice is adheres to the top of
the rain sensor on the windshield
and the windshield wipers cannot
remove the dirt or ice even after the
wipers operate several times, the
auto wipers will stop operating. If
the auto wipers stopped, remove the
dirt and ice from the windshield.
The auto wipers could operate from
the effect of strong light sources,
electromagnetic waves, or infrared
light because the rain sensor uses an
optical sensor. It is recommended
that the auto-wiper lever be
switched to the OFF position other
than when driving the vehicle under
rainy conditions.
Changing sensitivity of auto wipers
The rain sensitivity level can be
adjusted by rotating the switch.
1. Higher sensitivity
2. Normal
3. Less sensitivity
Using the Intermittent Wiper
*
The wipers operate intermittently.
Changing the intermittent operation
time
The intermittent operation time can be
adjusted by turning the switch.
1. Fast
2. Normal
3. Slow
Using the Windshield Wipers
Using continuously
Set the lever to the LO or HI position.
In the LO position, the windshield
wipers operate at low speed. In the HI
position, the wipers operate at high
speed.

How to Use the Tire
Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)
Check the tire pressure
The current tire pressure can be
checked on the center display.
Refer to the Vehicle Status Monitor
section in the Mazda Connect
Owner's Manual.
Low tire pressure warning
When a tire pressure of the specified
air pressure or lower is detected, the
TPMS warning light
turns on and a
warning indication is displayed in the
instrument cluster.
1. Message is displayed.
Action
1. Adjust the tire pressure to the appropriate pressure.
Refer to the Tires on page 10-71.
CAUTION
If the tire pressure is adjusted when
the tire is warm, the tire pressure
may lower below the specified
pressure after cooling and the
warning light may turn on. Adjust
the air pressure of the tires when
they are cold.
2. Make sure that the TPMS warning
light
is turned off.
3. If the TPMS warning light does
not turn off, drive the vehicle for 3
minutes or longer at a speed of 25
km/h (16 mph) or faster.
4. Make sure that the TPMS warning
light
is turned off.
If the TPMS warning light remains on
even after adjusting the tire pressure,
there is a possibility that the tire is flat.
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 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.

Do not apply accessories, stickers, or
film to the windshield near the
Forward Sensing Camera (FSC). If the
area in front of the Forward Sensing
Camera (FSC) lens is obstructed, it
will cause the system to not operate
correctly even if it is transparent.
Always keep the windshield glass
around the Forward Sensing Camera
(FSC) clean by removing dirt or
fogging. If the windshield is fogged,
press the windshield defroster
switch.
The Forward Sensing Camera (FSC)
includes a function for detecting a
soiled windshield and informing the
driver, however, depending on the
conditions, it may not detect plastic
shopping bags, water or snow on the
windshield. In such cases, the system
cannot accurately determine a
vehicle or obstruction in front and
may not be able to operate normally.
Always drive carefully and pay
attention to the road ahead.
When cleaning the windshield, do
not allow glass cleaners or similar
cleaning fluids to get on the Forward
Sensing Camera (FSC) lens. In
addition, do not touch the Forward
Sensing Camera (FSC) lens.
Consult an Authorized Mazda Dealer
regarding cleaning the interior side of
the windshield around the Forward
Sensing Camera (FSC).
If there are cracks or damage caused
by flying gravel or debris on the
windshield, always have the
windshield replaced. Consult an
Authorized Mazda Dealer before
replacing the windshield.
Consult an Authorized Mazda Dealer
before doing repairs around the
Forward Sensing Camera (FSC).When doing repairs around the
rearview mirror, consult an
Authorized Mazda Dealer.
Always use tires of the specified size
and the same manufacturer, brand,
and tread pattern on all 4 wheels. In
addition, do not use tires with
significantly different wear patterns
or tire pressures on the same vehicle
(including temporary spare tire).
NOTE
If the Forward Sensing Camera (FSC)
does not function normally due to
fog or the vehicle being driven
towards the sun, the functions
related to the Forward Sensing
Camera (FSC) are temporarily
stopped. In this case, the following
warning indications turn on.
However, this does not indicate a
problem.
