How do you check the tire pressure on a Mazda CX-5?

My friend commented that one of the tires on my Mazda CX-5 looks a little flat. How can I check to see the tire pressure?

If your CX-5 detects low tire pressure, the system will alert you by illuminating the warning light on your dashboard—but you shouldn’t wait until then to check your tires.
Here’s how to check the tire pressure of a Mazda CX-5:
  • First, confirm the correct tire pressure for your specific model by checking in your owner’s manual or on the door frame sticker on your driver’s side.
  • Grab a
    tire pressure gauge
    and remove the valve cap for the tire you’re checking. Place the gauge directly onto the valve to get your reading.
  • Repeat the process for every tire—and it doesn’t hurt to check each tire a few times to avoid any inaccurate readings.
Once you know your tire pressure, make adjustments (add or release air) according to the recommended PSI for your CX-5. It’s always a good idea to check your tire pressure around once a month or during seasonal changes. Regularly doing so is a good way to avoid extra car-related expenses, like unnecessary repairs or costly accidents.
