For details, refer to Section 4, “Smart City Brake Support [Forward] (SCBS
F)”, “Smart City Brake Support [Reverse] (SCBS R)”.
Smart City Brake Support [Forward] (SCBS F)/Smart City Brake Support [Reverse] (SCBS R)
The Smart City Brake Support [Forward] (SCBS F) is a system designed to reduce
damage in the event of a collision by operating the brake control when the system’s
laser sensor (front) detects a vehicle ahead and the system determines that a
collision is unavoidable. The system operates while the vehicle is moving in the
forward direction in the speed range of 4 to 30 km/h (3 to 18 mph), reducing
damage in the event of a collision.
It may also be possible to avoid a collision if the relative speed between your
vehicle and the vehicle in front of you is less than about 20 km/h (12 mph).
Smart City Brake Support [Forward] (SCBS F)
The Smart City Brake Support [Reverse] (SCBS R) is a system designed to reduce
damage in the event of a collision by operating the brake control when the system’s
ultrasonic sensors detect a vehicle or a wall at the rear of the vehicle and the system
determines that a collision is unavoidable.
The system operates while the vehicle is reversing in the speed range of 2 to 8 km/h
(2 to 4 mph), reducing damage in the event of a collision.
Smart City Brake Support [Reverse] (SCBS R)
Do not rely completely on the system:
• (Smart City Brake Support [Forward] (SCBS F))
If the vehicle height or inclination is changed, the system will not be able to
correctly detect vehicles ahead. This will result in the Smart City Brake
Support (SCBS) system not operating normally or mistakenly operating,
which could cause a serious accident.
WARNING
Do not modify the suspension: • (Smart City Brake Support [Reverse] (SCBS R))The Smart City Brake Support [Forward] (SCBS F) operates in response to
a vehicle (4-wheeled vehicle) in front of your vehicle. Operation in
response to 2-wheeled vehicles or pedestrians is not guaranteed.
The Smart City Brake Support [Reverse] (SCBS R) operates in response to
a vehicle (4-wheeled vehicle) behind of your vehicle or a wall. Operation in
response to 2-wheeled vehicles or pedestrians is not guaranteed.

NOTE
• (Smart City Brake Support [Forward] (SCBS F))
• Trucks with low loading platforms and vehicles with an extremely low or
high profile.
Smart City Brake Support [Forward] (SCBS F)/Smart City Brake Support [Reverse] (SCBS R)
The Smart City Brake Support [Forward] (SCBS F) detects a vehicle ahead
by emitting a near-infrared laser beam and receiving the beam reflected off
the reflector of the vehicle ahead, and then using it for the measurement.
Consequently, the Smart City Brake Support [Forward] (SCBS F) may not
operate under the following conditions:
•
Under bad weather condition, such as rain, fog and snow.
• The window washer is being used or the windscreen wipers are not used
when it's raining.
• The windscreen is dirty.
• The steering wheel is turned completely left or right, or the vehicle is
accelerated rapidly and comes close to the vehicle ahead.
• (Smart City Brake Support [Reverse] (SCBS R))
• The obstruction is small.
The Smart City Brake Support [Reverse] (SCBS R) operates using ultrasonic
sensors (rear) which detect obstructions at the rear by emitting ultrasonic
waves and then receiving the returning waves reflected off the obstructions.
•
The obstruction is thin such as a signpost.
• The obstruction is soft such as a hanging curtain or snow stuck to a vehicle.
• The obstruction is shaped irregularly.
• The surface of the obstruction is not pointed vertically relative to the vehicle.
In the following cases, the ultrasonic sensors (rear) cannot detect obstructions
and the Smart City Brake Support [Reverse] (SCBS R) may not operate.
•
The obstruction is positioned away from the centre of the vehicle.
• Something is stuck on the bumper near an ultrasonic sensor (rear).
• When travelling near objects such as foliage, barriers, vehicles, walls, and
fences along a road.
• When driving off-road in areas where there is grass and forage.

When Driving
Smart Brake Support (SBS)
Smart Brake Support (SBS) is a system which alerts the driver of a possible
collision using an indicator and warning sound in the instrument cluster while the
vehicle is being driven at about 15 km/h or faster (10 mph or faster) and the
system's radar sensor determines that your vehicle may hit a vehicle ahead.
Furthermore, if the radar sensor determines that a collision is unavoidable, the
automatic brake control is performed to reduce damage in the event of a collision.
For details, refer to Section 4, “Smart Brake Support (SBS)”.
Do not rely completely on the Smart Brake Support (SBS) system and always
drive carefully:
The Smart Brake Support (SBS) system is only designed to reduce damage in the
event of a collision. The ability to detect obstructions is limited depending on the
obstruction, weather conditions, or traffic conditions.
Check the safety of the surroundings and pay sufficient attention to the
distance between your vehicle and the vehicles travelling in front and behind.

Smart Brake Support (SBS)
NOTE
The Smart Brake Support (SBS) system may not operate under the followingy
conditions:
• If there is the possibility of hitting only a part of a vehicle ahead.
Although the objects which activate the system are 4-wheeled vehicles, the radar
sensor could detect the following objects, determine them to be an obstruction,
and operate the Smart Brake Support (SBS) system.
• Objects on the road at the entrance to a curve (including guardrails and
snow banks).
If there is the possibility of a collision with a vehicle or
obstruction ahead, the beep sounds continuously and a
warning is indicated in the display.
Collision Warning
Other details are described in the related text.
Other details are described in the related text.
• The vehicle is driven at the same speed as the vehicle ahead.
• The brake pedal, steering wheel, selector lever, or a direction indicator is
operated.
• A vehicle appears in the opposite lane while cornering or rounding a curve.
• When crossing a narrow bridge, passing through a low gate or tunnel, a
narrow gate, or entering an underground parking area.
• Metal objects, bumps, or protruding objects on the road.
• Two-wheeled vehicles such as motorcycles and bicycles, pedestrians, trees.

When Driving
i-ELOOP System
On conventional vehicles, the kinetic energy that is generated when the vehicle is
decelerated by applying the brakes or during engine braking ends up being discarded
as heat. By utilizing this discarded kinetic energy to generate electricity and use it to
power the vehicle's electrical devices and accessories such as the A/C and audio, fuel
consumption can be reduced. Mazda's system for generating electricity from this
kinetic energy is called the Deceleration Energy Generation System (i-ELOOP).
For details, refer to Section 4, “i-ELOOP”.
