2024 MAZDA CX90 four wheel drive

Trailer Stability Control(TSC)
The TSC is a system that increases the
stability of the vehicle during towing.
When vehicle sway occurs during
towing, the TSC controls the output of
the brakes and the hybrid system to
suppress swaying.
Warning and Cautions forUsing the Trailer Stability Control (TSC)
WARNING
Do not rely solely on the Trailer
Stability Control (TSC).
Vehicle stability can be limited even if
the Trailer Stability Control (TSC) is
operating. Drive carefully to prevent
accidents. In particular, if the
TCS/DSC indicator light is flashing ,
drive the vehicle carefully as it is in a
less stable condition and could sway
more easily. Drive with caution and in
accordance with the road, vehicle and
trailer conditions.
CAUTION
 The Trailer Stability Control (TSC)
may not operate correctly unless the
following are observed:
 Use tires of the correct size
specified for your Mazda on all
four wheels.
 Use tires of the same
manufacturer, brand and tread
pattern on all four wheels.
 Do not mix worn tires.
 The Trailer Stability Control (TSC)
may not operate correctly when tire
chains are used or a temporary spare
tire is installed because the tire
diameter changes.

How to Use the Distance& Speed Alert (DSA)
Operating the DSA
The DSA operates when all of the
following conditions are met.
The vehicle speed is about 30 km/h
(19 mph) or faster.
The system determines that the
distance to the vehicle ahead is
close.
When the DSA operates, the screen
display notifies the driver that the
distance between your vehicle and a
vehicle ahead is close.

Active driving display
NOTE
The objects which operate the DSA
are four-wheeled vehicles. However,
the DSA may also operate in the
presence of motorcycles and
bicycles.
The DSA does not operate on
stopped vehicles.
When the speed of the vehicle ahead
is extremely slow, the DSA may not
operate normally.
Turning off the DSA
There are 2 ways to turn off the DSA.
Tu r n off the DSA using Mazda
Connect.
Refer to the Settings section in the
Mazda Connect Owner's Manual.
Turn off the DSA using the
i-ACTIVSENSE OFF switch.

Having the Vehicle Towed
We recommend that towing be done
only by an Authorized Mazda Dealer
or a commercial tow-truck service.

Proper lifting and towing are necessary
to prevent damage to the vehicle.
Particularly when towing an AWD
vehicle, where all the wheels are
connected to the drive train, proper
transporting of the vehicle is absolutely
essential to avoid damaging the drive
system. Government and local laws
must be followed.
WARNING
Always tow an AWD vehicle with all
four wheels off the ground.
Towing an AWD vehicle with either the
front or rear wheels on the ground is
dangerous as the drive train could be
damaged, or the vehicle could trail
away from the tow truck and cause an
accident. If the drive train has been
damaged, transport the vehicle on a
flatbed truck.
CAUTION
Do not tow the vehicle pointed
forkward with driving wheels on the
ground. This may cause internal
damage to the transmission.
Do not tow with sling-type
equipment. This could damage your
vehicle. Use wheel-lift or flatbed
equipment.
If the parking brake cannot be
released when towing the vehicle,
transport the vehicle with all front
and rear wheels raised
off the ground
as shown in the figure. If the vehicle
is towed without raising the wheels off the ground, the brake system
could be damaged.

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.
