Mazda Radar Cruise Control
MAZDA RADAR CRUISE CONTROL (MRCC) SYSTEM (if equipped)
The MRCC system maintains vehicle speed and following distance using
a radar sensor to detect a vehicle ahead. The driver simply presets the
vehicle speed between 19 mph (30 km/h) and 90 mph (145 km/h) and the
system will maintain a safe following distance without having to turn the
cruise control off.
Setting the MRCC
When the ON switch is pushed,
the vehicle speed and the distance
between vehicles while in headway
control can be set. The MRCC
indication is shown in the display of
the instrument cluster.
The system operates in two modes, Constant Speed and Headway Control modes:
Constant Speed Mode When no vehicle is detected ahead,
the driver’s set speed is maintained.
Headway Control Mode When a vehicle is detected ahead,
a distance between your vehicle and the vehicle ahead is maintained.
NOTE: The radar for the MRCC is
located behind the Mazda emblem in
the grill. Keep this area clean to avoid
the system not working properly.

How to set the speed:
1 Adjust the vehicle to the desired speed using the accelerator pedal.
2 Push the SET + or SET – switch. The set speed and the inter-vehicle
distance display filled with white lines is displayed in the active driving
display and the MRCC indicator light (green) turns on simultaneously.

How to set the distance between vehicles:
The distance between vehicles is set to a shorter distance by pushing th\
e
switch a longer distance by pushing the switch. The distance-between-
vehicles can be set to 4 levels.

Display
CAUTION: Do not rely completely on the MRCC system and always
drive carefully obeying the speed limit.
NOTE: The MRCC sometimes will brake your vehicle when passing a semi truck (tractor
trailer). This is normal. Simply push the accelerator pedal to override the system.
CLOSE PROXIMITY WARNING
While travelling in headway control, if your vehicle rapidly
closes in on a vehicle ahead because the other driver applied their brakes
suddenly, a warning sound activates and the BRAKE! warning is indicated
in the display. Always verify the safety of the surrounding area and depress
the brake pedal while keeping a safe distance from the vehicle ahead.
Additionally, always keep a safe distance from the vehicles behind you. Switching to conventional cruise control function:
When the ON switch is pushed continuously for about 2 seconds while the
Mazda Radar Cruise Control (MRCC) system is turned on, the system is
switched to conventional cruise control function.
The Mazda Radar Cruise Control (MRCC) indicator light (green) in the
instrument cluster turns off and “Radar Cruise Control deactivated”
message is displayed in the multi information display at the same time.

Smart City Brake Support
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 .
SCBS system can be turned off using Safety Settings
in MAZDA CONNECT. (see page 16)
Laser Sensor
SMART CITY BRAKE SUPPORT (SCBS) SYSTEM (if equipped)
The Smart City Brake Support (SCBS) system is designed to reduce
damage in the event of a collision by automatically applying the vehicle’s
braking system when the system’s laser sensor detects an imminent
collision with the vehicle ahead:
• When your vehicle speed is 2 to 18 mph (4 to 30 km/h).
• The system determines that a collision with a vehicle ahead is unavoidab\
le.
• It may be possible to avoid a collision if the relative speed between
your vehicle and the vehicle ahead is less than 12.5 mph (20 km/h).
• When the driver depresses the brake pedal while the system is in the
operation range at about 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 Multi-
information 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.

Smart Brake Support
SMART BRAKE SUPPORT (SBS) (if equipped)
The 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 10 mph
(15 km/h) 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. In addition,
when the driver depresses the brake pedal, the brakes operate more
quickly to assist the driver.
Refer to your Owner’s Manual for complete details.

Collision Warning
If there is the possibility of a collision with a vehicle ahead,
the beep sounds continuously and a warning is indicated in
the multi-information display. SBS system can be turned off using Safety Settings in MAZDA CONNECT.

WARNING: SBS is only a supplementary system to reduce damage in the
event of a collision, however the SBS has limitations. Do not rely solely on the

Lane Departure Warning System
LANE DEPARTURE WARNING SYSTEM (LDWS) (if equipped)
The LDWS recognizes painted lane lines on a road using the forward
sensing camera (FSC) installed to the windshield. If the vehicle deviates
from its lane at speeds above 44 mph, the system alerts the driver using
the following indicators.

rely solely on the LDWS. Relying solely on the LDWS
may cause an unexpected accident resulting in death
or serious injury. Always pay attention to the direction
in which the vehicle is traveling and drive safely.
NOTE: Any driver input (e.g., turn signal, steering or acceleration) will cancel warning.

Distance Recognition Support System
DISTANCE RECOGNITION SUPPORT SYSTEM (DRSS)
(if equipped)
The Distance Recognition Support System (DRSS) measures the distance
between your vehicle and a vehicle ahead using a radar sensor (front) while the
vehicle speed is 19 mph (30 km/h) or faster, and indicates a recommended
distance to maintain between the vehicles. Furthermore, if your vehicle
approaches a vehicle ahead more closely than the appropriate distance to
maintain between the vehicles, the vehicle-ahead indication in the displ\
ay is
flashed to advise the driver to keep a safe distance from the vehicle ahead.
