Warning/Indicator Light Turns On
Warning Lights
If any warning/indicator light turns on/flashes, take appropriate action for each light. If the warning/indicator light does not turn off, or it turns on or flashes again, consult an Authorized Mazda Dealer.
If the warning light/indicator light turns on or flashes, park the vehicle in a safe place immediately and take appropriate measures.
Continuing to drive the vehicle while ignoring the illumination/flashing of the warning light/indicator light is dangerous because a problem may occur to a vehicle system, the engine may be damaged, or it could lead to an accident.
The details for some warnings can be viewed on the center display or instrument cluster.

Parking brake warning/Indicator light inspection
The light illuminates when the parking brake is applied with the vehicle power switched to START or ON. It turns off when the parking brake is released.
Turning on
If the light remains on even with the electric parking brake (EPB) switch turned off, the system may have a malfunction. Have the vehicle inspected by an Authorized Mazda Dealer.
Flashing
The light flashes if the system has a problem. If the light remains flashing even if the electric parking brake (EPB) switch is pressed, consult an Authorized Mazda Dealer as soon as possible.
AWD Warning Light (Some Models)
The light turns on if the system has a problem or if the tire sizes do not match.

Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) Warning Light (Flashing)
The light flashes if there is a malfunction in the system.
Contact an Authorized Mazda Dealer.
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.
Check Fuel Cap Warning Light
If the check fuel cap warning light illuminates while driving, the fuel-filler cap may not be installed properly.
Stop the engine and reinstall the fuel-filler cap.
