Warning  
Action to be taken  
Inspect the tyres and adjust to the speci¿ed  
inÀation pressure (page 6-44).  
When the warning light illuminates, and  
the warning beep sound is heard (about 3  
seconds), tyre pressure is too low in one or  
more tyres.  
NOTE  
 
Perform tyre pressure adjustment when  
the tyres are cold. Tyre pressure will  
vary according to the tyre temperature,  
therefore let the vehicle stand for 1  
hour or only drive it 1.6 km (1 mile) or  
less before adjusting the tyre pressures.  
When pressure is adjusted on hot tyres  
to the cold inÀation pressure, the TPMS  
warning light/beep may turn on after  
the tyres cool and pressure drops below  
speci¿cation.  
WARNING  
If the tyre pressure monitoring system  
warning light illuminates or Àashes,  
or the tyre pressure warning beep  
sound is heard, decrease vehicle  
speed immediately and avoid sudden  
manoeuvring and braking:  
If the tyre pressure monitoring system  
warning light illuminates or Àashes, or  
the tyre pressure warning beep sound  
is heard, it is dangerous to drive the  
vehicle at high speeds, or perform  
sudden manoeuvring or braking.  
Vehicle drivability could worsen and  
result in an accident.  
To determine if you have a slow leak or  
a Àat, pull over to a safe position where  
you can check the visual condition  
of the tyre and determine if you have  
enough air to proceed to a place where  
air may be added and the system  
monitored again by an expert repairer,  
we recommend an Authorised Mazda  
Repairer or a tyre repair station.  
Also, an illuminated TPMS warning  
light, resulting from the tyre air  
pressure dropping due to cold ambient  
temperature will remain illuminated  
even if the ambient temperature rises.  
In this case, it will also be necessary  
to adjust the tyre air pressures. If the  
TPMS warning light illuminates due to  
a drop in tyre air pressure, make sure to  
check and adjust the tyre air pressures.  
(Illuminate)  
Tyre Pressure  
Monitoring System  
Warning Light*  
 
Tyres lose air naturally over time and  
the TPMS cannot tell if the tyres are  
getting too soft over time or you have  
a Àat. However, when you ¿nd one low  
tyre in a set of four-that is an indication  
of trouble; you should have someone  
drive the vehicle slowly forward so  
you can inspect any low tyre for cuts  
and any metal objects sticking through  
tread or sidewall. Put a few drops of  
water in the valve stem to see if it  
bubbles indicating a bad valve. Leaks  
need to be addressed by more than  
simply reinÀating the tyre as leaks  
are dangerous — take it to an expert  
repairer, we recommend an Authorised  
Mazda Repairer.  
Do not ignore the TPMS Warning  
Light:  
Ignoring the TPMS warning light is  
dangerous, even if you know why it is  
illuminated. Have the problem taken  
care of as soon as possible before it  
develops into a more serious situation
