Tire Pressure Monitoring
System (TPMS) Warning
Light (Flashing)
*
The light flashes if there is a
malfunction in the system.
Contact 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.
