Resume driving information
If you do not resume driving within a few seconds after the vehicle ahead starts moving, the
multi-information display vehicl e-ahead indication flashes to urge the driver to resume
driving.
▼ Cruise Control Function
While this function is operating, the
headway control operation is cancelled

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)
Always drive carefully:
The warnings and brake control will not
operate after the headway control function
is cancelled and the system is switched to
only the cruise control function. Depress
the brake pedal to decelerate according to
the surrounding conditions while keeping a
safer distance from the vehicle ahead and
always driving carefully.

Smart City Brake Support [Reverse] (SCBS R)*
The SCBS R is a system which is designed to reduce damage in the event of a collision by
operating the brake control (SCB S brake) when the system’s ultrasonic sensors detect an
obstruction at the rear of the vehicle while driving at a speed of about 2 to 8 km/h (2 to 4
mph) and the system determines that a collision is unavoidable.
Reverse Ultrasonic sensor (rear)
WA R N I N G
Do not rely completely on the SCBS R system:

The SCBS R system is only designed to red uce damage in the event of a collision. Over
reliance on the system leading to the accele rator pedal or brake pedal being mistakenly
operated could result in an accident.
 To assure the correct operation of the SCBS R, heed the following cautions.
 Do not apply a sticker to an ultrasonic sens or (rear) (including transparent stickers).
Otherwise, the ultrasonic sensor (rear) may no t be able to detect vehicles or obstructions
which could result in an accident.
 Do not disassemble an ultrasonic sensor (rear).
 If cracks or damage caused by flying gravel or debris is visible around an ultrasonic
sensor (rear), stop using the SCBS R system immediately and have your vehicle inspected
by an expert repairer, we recommend an Au thorised Mazda Repairer. If the vehicle
continues to be driven with cracks or scratch marks left around an ultrasonic sensor, the
system may operate unnecessarily an d cause an unexpected accident.
Refer to Stopping the Smart City Brake Supp ort [Reverse] (SCBS R) System Operation on
page 4-192.
 Consult an expert repairer, we recommend an Authorised Mazda Repairer for rear
bumper replacement.
Do not modify the suspension:
If the vehicle height or inclination is changed, the SCBS R system may not operate correctly
because it cannot detect obstructions correctly.

Forward Sensing Camera (FSC)*
Your vehicle is equipped with a Forward Sensing Camera (FSC). The Forward Sensing
Camera (FSC) is positioned near t he rearview mirror and used by the following systems.
•High Beam Control System (HBC)
•Adaptive LED Headlights (ALH)
•Driver Attention Alert (DAA)
•Lane-keep Assist System (LAS) & Lane Departure Warning System ( LDWS)
•Traffic Sign Recognition System (TSR)
•Advanced Smart City Brake Support (Advanced SCBS)
•Smart City Brake Support [Forward] (SCBS F)
•Mazda Radar Cruise Control with S top & Go function (MRCC with Stop & Go function)
•Smart Brake Support (SBS)
Forward Sensing Camera (FSC)
The Forward Sensing Camera (FSC) determines the conditions ahea d of the vehicle while
travelling at night and detects traffic lanes. The distance in which the Forward Sensing
Camera (FSC) can detect objects v aries depending on the surrounding conditions.
WA R N I N G
Do not modify the suspension:
If the vehicle height or inclination is changed, the system will not be able to correctly detect
vehicles ahead. This will result in the system not operating normally or mistakenly operating,
which could cause a serious accident.
CAUTION
 Do not apply accessories, stickers or film to the windscreen near the Forward Sensing
Camera (FSC).

Radar Sensor (Front)*
Your vehicle is equipped with a radar sensor (front).
The following systems also use the radar sensor (front).
•Mazda Radar Cruise Control (MRCC)
•Mazda Radar Cruise Control with Stop & Go function (MRCC with S top & Go function)
•Distance Recognition Support System (DRSS)
•Smart Brake Support (SBS)
The radar sensor (front) functions by detecting the radio waves reflected off a vehicle ahead
or an obstruction sent from the radar sensor.
The radar sensor (front) is mo unted behind the front emblem.
Radar sensor (front)
If “Front radar blocked” is displayed in the multi-information display of the instrument
cluster, clean the area around the radar sensor (front).
CAUTION
Heed the following precautions to a ssure correct operation of each system.
 Do not adhere stickers (including transparent st ickers) to the surface of the radiator grille
and front emblem in and around the radar sens or (front), and do not replace the radiator
grille and front emblem with any product that is not a genuine product designed for use
with the radar sensor (front).
 The radar sensor (front) includes a function fo r detecting soiling of the radar sensor's front
surface and informing the driver, however, depending on the conditions, it may require
time to detect or it may not detect plastic sh opping bags, ice or snow. If this occurs, the
system may not operate correctly, therefore al ways keep the radar sensor (front) clean.
 Do not install a grille guard.
 If the front part of the vehicle has been dama ged in a vehicle accident, the position of the
radar sensor (front) may have moved. Stop the system immediately and always have the
vehicle inspected at an Authorised Mazda Repairer.
