When Driving
i-ACTIVSENSE
NOTE
  In the following cases, the Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM) warning indication/warning
light turns on and operation of the system is stopped. If the Blind Spot Monitoring
(BSM) warning indication/warning light remains illuminated, have the vehicle
inspected at an Authorised Mazda Dealer as soon as possible.
 


 Some problem with the system including the Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM) warning
indicator lights has occurred.
 


 A large deviation in the installation position of a radar sensor (rear) on the vehicle
has occurred.
 


 There is a large accumulation of snow or ice on the rear bumper near a radar sensor
(rear).
 


 Driving on snow-covered roads for long periods.



 The temperature near the radar sensors becomes extremely hot due to driving for
long periods on slopes during the summer.
 


 The battery voltage has decreased.

When Driving
i-ACTIVSENSE
NOTE
  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.
 


 The rear surface of a vehicle ahead does not reÀ 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.
 


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



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


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


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



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



 When driving near facilities or objects emitting strong radio waves. 

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


 The beginning and end of a curve.



 Roads with continuous curves.



 Narrow lane roads due to road construction or lane closures.



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



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



 Roads with repeated up and down slopes



 Driving on poor roads or unpaved roads.



 The distance between your vehicle and the vehicle ahead is extremely short.



 A vehicle suddenly comes close such as by cutting into the lane. 

 To prevent incorrect operation of the system, use tyres of the same speci¿ ed size,
manufacturer, brand, and tread pattern on all four wheels. In addition, do not use
tyres with signi¿ cantly different wear patterns or tyre pressures on the same vehicle
(Including the temporary spare tyre).
  If the battery power is weak, the system may not operate correctly. 
 If the vehicle is driven on a road with little traf¿ c and few vehicles ahead or
obstructions for the radar sensor (front) to detect, the sensor detects that the radar
sensor (front) is dirty and the Smart Brake Support/Smart City Brake Support (SBS/
SCBS) Warning Light (amber) may be temporarily turned on. However, it does not
indicate a malfunction.

When Driving
Tyre Pressure Monitoring System
NOTE
Because this system detects slight changes in tyre conditions, the timing of the warning
may be faster or slower in the following cases:
 
 The size, manufacturer, or the type of tyres is different from the speci¿ cation. 
 The size, manufacturer, or the type of a tyre is different from the others, or the level of
tyre wear is excessively different between them.
  A run-À at tyre, studless tyre, snow tyre, or tyre chains are used. 
 An emergency tyre is used (The tyre pressure monitoring system warning light may
À ash and then continue illuminating).

 A tyre is repaired using the emergency À at tyre repair kit. 
 The tyre pressure is excessively higher than the speci¿ ed pressure, or the tyre pressure
is suddenly lowered for some reason such as a tyre burst during driving.
  The vehicle speed is lower than about 15 km/h (9.3 mph) (including when the vehicle
is stopped), or the drive period is shorter than 5 minutes.
  The vehicle is driven on an extremely rough road or a slippery, icy road. 
 Hard steering and rapid acceleration/deceleration are repeated such as during
aggressive driving on a winding road.
  Load on the vehicle is applied to a tyre such as by loading heavy luggage to one side of
the vehicle.
  System initialization has not been implemented with the speci¿ ed tyre pressure.
Tyre Pressure Monitoring System
Initialization
In the following cases, system
initialization must be performed so that the
system operates normally.
 


 A tyre pressure is adjusted.



 Tyre rotation is performed.



 A tyre or wheel is replaced.



 The battery is replaced or completely
drained.
 


 The tyre pressure monitoring system
warning light is illuminated.

Initialization method

1. Park the car in a safe place and ¿ rmly
apply the parking brake.
2. Let the tyres cool, then adjust the tyre
pressure of all four (4) tyres to the
speci¿ ed pressure indicated on the tyre
pressure label located on the driver's
door frame (door open).
Refer to Tyres on page 9-10 .
3. Switch the ignition ON.

Air-Conditioning System
O p e r a t i n g T i p s
 












 Operate the air-conditioning system with
the engine running.
 


 To prevent the battery from being
discharged, do not leave the fan control
dial on for a long period of time with the
ignition switched ON when the engine is
not running.
 


 (With i-stop) 
 The airÀ ow amount may decrease
slightly while the i-stop function is
operating.
 


 Clear all obstructions such as leaves,
snow and ice from the bonnet and the
air inlet in the cowl grille to improve the
system ef¿ ciency.




 Use the air-conditioning system to defog
the windows and dehumidify the air.
 


 The recirculate mode should be used
when driving through tunnels or while in
a traf¿ c jam, or when you would like to
shut off outside air for quick cooling of
the interior.
 


 Use the outside air position for
ventilation or windscreen defrosting.
 


 If the vehicle has been parked in direct
sunlight during hot weather, open the
windows to let warm air escape, then
run the air-conditioning system.

(With A/C switch)
 




 Run the air conditioner about 10 minutes
at least once a month to keep internal
parts lubricated.
 


 Have the air conditioner checked before
the weather gets hot. Lack of refrigerant
may make the air conditioner less
ef¿ cient.

 The refrigerant speci¿ cations are
indicated on a label attached to the
inside of the engine compartment. Check
the label before re¿ lling the refrigerant.
If the wrong type of refrigerant is used,
it could result in a serious malfunction
of the air conditioner.
  For details, consult an expert repairer,
we recommend an Authorised Mazda
Repairer.
