2016 MAZDA MODEL CX-3 brake sensor

*Some models.4–109
When Driving
i-ACTIVSENSE
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 (front) determines
that your vehicle may hit a vehicle ahead. Furthermore, if the radar sensor (front) determines
that a collision is unavoidable, the automatic brake control is performed to reduce damage in
the event of a collision.
In addition, when the driver depresses the brake pedal, the brakes operate more quickly to
assist the driver (vehicles with brake fl uid pre-fi ll).
WARNING
Do not rely completely on the Smart Brake Support (SBS) system and always drive
carefully:
The Smart Brake Support (SBS) is designed to reduce damage in the event of a collision,
not avoid an accident. The ability to detect an obstruction is limited depending on the
obstruction, weather conditions, or traffi c conditions. Therefore, if the accelerator pedal
or brake pedal is mistakenly operated it 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.
CAUTION
If the vehicle is towed or you are towing something, switch the Smart Brake Support (SBS)
system off to prevent a mistaken operation.

NOTE
 


y Under the following conditions, the
radar sensor (front) may not be able to
detect vehicles ahead or obstructions
correctly and each system may not
operate normally.
 


y The rear surface of a vehicle
ahead does not refl ect radio waves
effectively, such as an unloaded
trailer or an automobile with a
loading platform covered by a soft
top, vehicles with a hard plastic
tailgate, and round-shaped vehicles.
 


y Vehicles ahead with low vehicle
height and thus less area for
refl ecting radio waves.




y Visibility is reduced due to a vehicle
ahead casting off water, snow, or
sand from its tires and onto your
windshield.
 


y The luggage compartment is loaded
with heavy objects or the rear
passenger seats are occupied.
 


y Ice, snow, or soiling is on the front
surface of the front emblem.
 


y During inclement weather such as
rain, snow, or sand storms.
 


y When driving near facilities or
objects emitting strong radio waves.
 


y Under the following conditions, the
radar sensor (front) may not be able to
detect vehicles ahead or obstructions.
 


y The beginning and end of a curve.



y Roads with continuous curves.



y Narrow lane roads due to road
construction or lane closures.
 


y The vehicle ahead enters the radar
sensor's blind spot.
 


y The vehicle ahead is running
abnormally due to accident or
vehicle damage.
 


y Roads with repeated up and down
slopes
 


y Driving on poor roads or unpaved
roads.
 


y The distance between your vehicle
