▼ Tire Pressure Monitoring System

(TPMS)

The TPMS monitors the air pressure of
each tire and if it decreases below the
specified value, the system notifies the
driver by turning on the TPMS warning
light in the instrument cluster and
indicating a message on the
multi-information display.
For the TPMS, the air pressure data
sent from the tire pressure sensors
installed on each wheel via radio signal
is received by the receiver unit in the
vehicle to monitor the tire pressures.
1. Tire pressure sensors
In addition, the current tire pressures
can be checked using the center
display.
Refer to the Vehicle Status Monitor
section in the Mazda Connect
Owner's Manual.
NOTE
When the ambient temperature is

low, the tire temperatures also
decrease. If the tire temperatures
decrease, the air pressure in the tires
will also decrease which could turn
on the TPMS warning light.

Before driving, visually inspect the

tires for abnormalities. Additionally,
inspect the tire pressures monthly. A
digital type air pressure gauge is
recommended for inspecting the tire
pressures.
The TPMS is not a substitute for your
own periodic inspection of the tires.
Always inspect the tires yourself
periodically.
CAUTION
Each tire, including the spare (if
provided), should be checked
monthly when cold and inflated to
the inflation pressure recommended
by the vehicle manufacturer on the
vehicle placard or tire inflation
pressure label. (If your vehicle has
tires of a different size than the size
indicated on the vehicle placard or
tire inflation pressure label, you
should determine the proper tire
inflation pressure for those tires.)
As an added safety feature, your
vehicle has been equipped with a
tire pressure monitoring system
(TPMS) that illuminates a low tire
pressure telltale when one or more
of your tires is significantly
under-inflated. Accordingly, when
the low tire pressure telltale
illuminates, you should stop and
check your tires as soon as possible,
and inflate them to the proper
pressure. Driving on a significantly
under-inflated tire causes the tire to
overheat and can lead to tire failure.
Under-inflation also reduces fuel
efficiency and tire tread life, and may
affect the vehicle's handling and
stopping ability.
