WARNING
Have the tyres checked or perform the
appropriate repair as soon as possible
by an expert repairer, we recommend
an Authorised Mazda Repairer:
When the at tyre warning light
illuminates 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.
When the at tyre warning light
illuminates or the tyre pressure
warning beep sound is heard, decrease
vehicle speed immediately and avoid
sudden manoeuvring and braking.
If a run- at tyre is punctured, the FLAT
TIRE warning light illuminates in the
instrument cluster, and a beep sound is
heard for about 30 seconds.
NOTE
Until the at tyre is changed, the beep
sound is heard for about 30 seconds
every time the ignition is switched ON.
