additional quick acceleration which may be needed to safely make manoeuvres such
as lane changes, merging onto freeways, or passing other vehicles.
Pull the drive selection switch back (“ ”) to
cancel the sport mode. Press the drive selection switch forward (“ ”)
to select the sport mode.

i-ACTIVSENSE
i-ACTIVSENSE is a collective term covering a series of advanced safety and driver
support systems which make use of a Forward Sensing Camera (FSC) and radar
sensors.
These systems consist of active safety and pre-crash safety systems.
Driver awareness support systems
• Adaptive Front Lighting System (AFS)
• High Beam Control system (HBC) • Adaptive LED Headlights (ALH)
• Lane Departure Warning System (LDWS)
• Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM)
• Distance Recognition Support System (DRSS)
• Driver attention alert (DAA)
These systems are designed to assist the driver in safer driving by reducing the load
on the driver and helping to avert collisions or reduce their severity. However,
because each system has its limitations, always drive carefully and do not rely
solely on the systems.
Active Safety Technology
Active Safety Technology supports safer driving by helping the driver to recognise
potential hazards and avert accidents.

18
When Driving
For details, refer to Section 4, “i-ACTIVSENSE”.
Traffic Sign Recognition System (TSR)
If the vehicle speed exceeds the speed limit sign displayed on the active driving
display, the warning sound is activated and the area around the speed limit sign
displayed on the active driving display flashes 3 times in amber, and if the vehicle
speed continues to exceed the displayed speed limit sign, the indication stops
flashing and remains on. Check the surrounding conditions and adjust the vehicle
speed to the legal speed using the appropriate operation such as depressing the
brake pedal.
Excessive Speed Warning
NOTE
The Traffic Sign Recognition System (TSR) does not operate if there is a
malfunction in the Forward Sensing Camera (FSC).


19
When Driving
Mazda Radar Cruise Control (MRCC) system
The Mazda Radar Cruise Control (MRCC) system is designed to maintain
headway control according to the vehicle speed using a radar sensor to detect the
distance to a vehicle ahead, which frees the driver from having to use the
accelerator or brake pedals.
Additionally, if your vehicle starts closing in on the vehicle ahead because, for
example, the vehicle ahead brakes suddenly, a warning sound and a warning
indication in the display are activated simultaneously to alert you to maintain a
sufficient distance between the vehicles.
The possible vehicle speed setting ranges are as follows:
• (European models)
About 30 km/h (19 mph) to 200 km/h (124 mph)
• (Except European models)
About 30 km/h (19 mph) to 145 km/h (90 mph)
For details, refer to Section 4, “i-ACTIVSENSE”.
Use the Mazda Radar Cruise Control (MRCC) system on expressways and other
highways which do not require a lot of repeated acceleration and deceleration.
Do not rely completely on the Mazda Radar Cruise Control (MRCC) system
and always drive carefully:
WARNING
Do not use the Mazda Radar Cruise Control (MRCC) system in the
following locations. Otherwise, it could lead to an accident:
• Roads with sharp curves, heavy traffic, or roads requiring repeated and
frequent acceleration.
• When entering expressway interchanges and service areas.
• Slippery roads such as ice or snow-bound roads.
• Long descending slopes.
The Mazda Radar Cruise Control (MRCC) system is designed to reduce load
on the driver, and although it maintains a constant vehicle speed, or
specifically, it maintains a constant distance between your vehicle and the
detected vehicle ahead according to the vehicle speed, the system has detection
limitations depending on the type of vehicle ahead and its conditions, the
weather conditions, and the road conditions. Additionally, the system may be
unable to decelerate sufficiently to avoid hitting the vehicle ahead if the
vehicle ahead applies the brakes suddenly or another vehicle cuts into the
driving lane, which could result in an accident. Always verify the safety of the
surrounding area and depress the brake pedal or accelerator pedal while
keeping a safer distance from vehicles ahead or on-coming vehicles.
