2017 MAZDA MODEL CX-5 engine

Long, descending slopes (to maintain distance between vehicles, the system automatically
and continuously applies the brakes which could result in the loss of brake power.)
 Slopes with a steep gradient (The vehicle ahea d may not be detected correctly, your vehicle
may slide while stopped by the stop hold control, and it may accelerate suddenly after it
starts moving.)
For safety purposes, switch the MRCC system off when it is not being used.
CAUTION
If your vehicle is towed or you are towing some thing, switch the MRCC system off to prevent a
miss-operation.
NOTE
•The MRCC system does not detect the following as physical objects.
•Vehicles approaching in the opposite direction
•Pedestrians
•Stationary objects (stopped vehicles, obstructions)
•If a vehicle ahead is travelling at an extre mely low speed, the system may not detect it
correctly.
•During headway control travel, do not set the system for detection of two-wheeled
vehicles such as motorcycles and bicycles.
•Do not use the MRCC system under conditions in which close proximity warnings are
frequently activated.
•During headway control travel, the system accelerates and decelerates your vehicle in
conjunction with the speed of the vehicle ahead. However, if it is necessary to accelerate
for a lane change or if the vehicle ahead brakes suddenly causing you to close in on the
vehicle rapidly, accelerate using the accelerator pedal or decelerate using the brake
pedal depending on the conditions.
•While the MRCC system is in use, it does not cancel even if the selector lever (automatic
transaxle)/shift lever (manual transaxle) is operated and any intended engine braking will
not occur. If deceleration is required, lower the vehicle speed setting or depress the brake
pedal.
•The sound of the automatic brakes operating may be heard, however, it does not indicate
a problem.
•The brake lights turn on while the MRCC automatic braking is operating, however, they
may not turn on while the vehicle is on a downslope at the set vehicle speed or travelling
at a constant speed and following a vehicle ahead.

How to set the distance-between-vehicles during headway control
The distance-between-vehicles is set to a shorter distance by pressing the switch. The
distance-between-vehicles is set to a longer distance by pressi ng the
switch. The
distance-between-vehicles can be set to 4 levels; Long, medium, short, and extremely short
distance.

NOTE
•The distance-between-vehicles differs depending on the vehicle speed, and the slower the
vehicle speed, the shorter the distance.
•When the ignition is switched to ACC or OFF and then the engine is started again, the
system automatically sets the distance-between-vehicles to the previous setting.

Under the following conditions, the
MRCC cancel indication is displayed in
the multi-inform ation display and a single
beep sound is heard.
•The DSC has operated.
•The Smart Brake Support (SBS) has
operated.
•The Smart City Brake Support
[Forward] (SCBS F) or Advanced Smart
City Brake Support (Advanced SCBS)
has operated.
•When travelling on a downslope for a
long period of time.
•There is a problem with the system.
•The radar sensor (front) cannot detect
target objects (during rain, fog, snow or
other inclement weather conditions, or
when the radiator grille is dirty).
•The vehicle speed decreases to less than
25 km (16 mph).
•(Manual transaxle)
•The shift lever is sh ifted to neutral (N)
for a certain period of time.
•The clutch is depressed for a certain
period of time.
•The engine stalls.
Resuming control
If the MRCC system is cancelled, you can
resume control at the previously set speed
by pressing the RES switch and after all of
the operation conditions have been met.
NOTE
If the set speed is not indicated in the
display, the control does not resume even
if the RES switch is pressed.
Turning off the system
Press the OFF/CAN switch two times
while the MRCC system is operating to

▼Shift-up/Shift-down Request Display (Manual Transaxle)
The shift-up or shift-down reque
st display in the active driving display or multi-information
display may be indicated while the MRCC is operating. When this occurs, shift gears
because the gear position is not appropriate.

NOTE
If the gears are not shifted up/down even t hough the shift-up/down request indication is
displayed, load will be applied to the engine and the MRCC system may be automatically
cancelled or engine damage could occur.
▼ Cruise Control Function
While this function is operating, the
headway control operation is cancelled
and only the cruise control function
operates.
The vehicle speed can be set more than
about 25 km/h (16 mph).
Use the cruise c
ontrol function on
expressways and other highways which do
not require a lot of repeated acceleration
and deceleration.
WA R N I N G
Do not use the cruise control function in
the following locations:
Otherwise, it could lead to an accident.
 Roads with sharp curves and where
vehicle traffic is heavy and there is
insufficient space between vehicles.
(Driving under these conditions using the
cruise control function is not possible)
 Steep down slopes (Set speed may be
exceeded because sufficient engine
braking cannot be applied)
 Slippery roads such as ice or snow-bound
roads (Tyres could spin causing you to
lose vehicle control)

How to change the set vehicle speed
To accelerate/decelerate using the SET
switch
When you press the SET
switch, the
vehicle accelerates and when you press the
SET
switch, it decelerates.
European
models Except Euro-
pean models
Short press 1 km/h (1 mph) 5 km/h (5 mph)
Long press 10 km/h (5 mph)
NOTE
For example, the set vehicle speed is
changed by pressing the SET switch four
times as follows:
(European models)
The vehicle speed accelerates or
decelerates by 4 km/h (4 mph).
(Except European models)
The vehicle speed accelerates or
decelerates by 20 km/h (20 mph).
To increase speed using accelerator
pedal
Depress the accelerator pedal and press
and release the SET
switch or SET
switch at the desired sp eed. If the switch is
not operated, the syste m returns to the set
speed after you release your foot from the
accelerator pedal.
CAUTION
The warnings and brake control do not
operate while the accelerator pedal is
depressed.
NOTE
•The setting speed can be changed by
operating the SET
switch or SET
switch during stop hold control.

•When accelerating using the SET
switch while in headway control, the set
vehicle speed can be adjusted but
acceleration is not possible. If there is
no longer a vehicle ahead, acceleration
continues until reaching the set vehicle
speed. For the set vehicle speed, check
the set vehicle speed indication in the
display.
•When depressing the accelerator pedal,
the inter-vehicle distance indication in
the display changes to the white-line
indication.
•(European models)
When switching to a passing lane and
operating the direction indicator, the
system provides more acceleration
automatically if it determines that more
acceleration is required. Drive while
being careful of the road ahead because
you could approach the vehicle ahead
too closely.
Cancelling the system
When the following operations are
performed, the MRCC with Stop & Go
function system is cancelled, and the
MRCC with Stop & Go function set
indication (green) sw itches to the MRCC
with Stop & Go function main indication
(white) at the same time.

Under the following conditions, the
MRCC with Stop & Go function cancel
indication is displayed in the
multi-information display and a single
beep sound is heard.
•The DSC has operated.
•The Smart Brake Support (SBS) has
operated.
•The Smart City Brake Support
[Forward] (SCBS F) or Advanced Smart
