Smart City Brake Support
Laser Sensor
SMART CITY BRAKE SUPPORT (SCBS) SYSTEM
(if equipped)
The SCBS system is designed to reduce damage in the event of a
collision by applying the brakes when the system’s laser sensor detects
a vehicle ahead.
The system operates when the vehicle speed is 2 to
18 mph (4 to 30 km/h) and the system determines that a collision with
a vehicle ahead is unavoidable.
NOTE:
• It may be possible to avoid a collision if the relative speed between
your vehicle and the vehicle ahead is less than 9 mph (15 km/h).
• When the driver depresses the brake pedal while the system is in the
operation range between 2 to 18 mph (4 to 30 km/h), the brakes are
applied firmly and quickly to assist. (SCBS Automatic Brake is displayed
in the active driving display.)
• SCBS automatic brake is released approximately 2 seconds after the
vehicle comes to a stop.
• Refer to your Owner’s Manual for complete details.
WARNING: SCBS is only a supplementary
system to reduce damage in the event of a
collision , however the SCBS has limitations.
Do not rely solely on the SCBS . Always keep
your eyes on the road .
NOTE: SCBS system can be
turned off using Safety Settings
in the infotainment system.

AUDIO OPERATION
USING VOICE
Audio operation and media selection
can be done using voice. Push the
“TALK” button on the steering wheel, wait for a beep, then say a command in
a clear, natural voice (not too fast or too slow). Some common commands are listed below.

AM, FM, XM, CD, Bluetooth, Aha, Pandora, Stitcher, USB, AUX
Play or Resume / Pause or
Stop / Next or Previous
Play (and any of the following):
Song, Playlist ,
Artist , Album
, Genre , Folder
Tune to Station
Tune to Channel Number (XM)
HD RADIO
HD radio has a special
receiver which allows it to
receive digital broadcasts (where available) in addition to the analog broadcasts it already receives. Digital broadcasts have better
sound quality than analog broadcasts as digital
broadcasts provide free,
crystal clear audio.
When the HD radio button is ON (red), there could be a
noticeable difference in sound
quality and volume when a change from digital to analog signals occurs. If the sound
quality and volume becomes noticeably diminished or cuts
off, select the HD button to turn OFF HD radio (not red).

GRACENOTE
The Gracenote media database is used to improve voice recognition of artist and album names with the Mazda Hands Free system. To make best use of the
voice recognition, install the most recent database.

from www.MazdaUSA.com/USB. Insert the
memory stick into the USB port.
2 Go to System Settings in the infotainment system.

i-ELOOP
i-ELOOP (if equipped)
The Mazda-unique regenerative braking system (i-ELOOP) generates
and stores electrical energy in a capacitor during deceleration. Through
efficient energy regeneration, storage, and usage, fuel economy is
improved. To view i-ELOOP information, select Applications from
the Home screen, then scroll down to Fuel Economy Monitor.
i-ELOOP Pre-Charge Mode
If the capacitor is discharged because of vehicle storage (the vehicle \
is
parked for long periods of time), the i-ELOOP indicator in the instrume\
nt
cluster will flash and a
warning screen appears
on the screen of the
infotainment system.
When this warning screen appears, do not drive the
vehicle. Allow the engine to idle until the warning
screen disappears. This time is needed for normal
generator operation.
