WARNING

Never tamper with the air bag/
pretensioner systems and always have an
Authorized Mazda Dealer perform all
servicing and repairs:

Self-servicing or tampering with the
systems is dangerous. An air bag/
pretensioner could accidentally activate or
become disabled causing serious injury or
death.

Tire Pressure Monitoring System
(TPMS) Warning Indication/
Warning Light (Flashing)

If there is a problem with the TPMS or the
voltage of a tire pressure sensor decreases,
the TPMS warning light flashes and a
message is displayed on the
multi-information display. Have your
vehicle inspected by 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 drive the vehicle while
ignoring the illumination/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.
