The Mazda Radar Cruise Control with Stop & Go function (MRCC with Stop \
& Go
function) system operates when all of the following conditions are met.\
  Vehicle speed is 0 km/h (0 mph) to 145 km/h (90 mph)  The Mazda Radar Cruise Control with Stop & Go function (MRCC with Stop \
& Go
function) is turned on.
   The brake pedal is not depressed.  The electric parking brake (EPB) is released (electric parking brake \
(EPB) indicator light
is turned off).
   There is no problem with the DSC.  All the doors are closed.  The driver's seat belt is fastened.  The selector lever is in the drive (D) position or manual (M) positi\
on (manual mode).
NOTE
  In the following cases, the Mazda Radar Cruise Control with Stop & Go function (MRCC
with Stop & Go function) system is canceled when the vehicle is traveli\
ng at 30 km/h
(20 mph) or less and “Mazda Radar Cruise Control disabled under 30 km/h (20 mph) ” is
displayed in the multi-information display.
  The Forward Sensing Camera (FSC) cannot detect target objects (There is problem
with the Forward Sensing Camera (FSC) or windshield is dirty).
  There is a problem with the stop hold control function.  There is a problem with the electric parking brake (EPB).   It may not be possible to set the Mazda Radar Cruise Control with Stop & Go function

How to set the distance-between-vehicles during headway control
The distance-between-vehicles is set to a shorter distance by pressing t\
he
switch. The
distance-between-vehicles is set to a longer distance by pressing the
switch. The distance-
between-vehicles can be set to 4 levels; Long, medium, short, and extrem\
ely short distance.

Distance-between-vehicles guideline
(at 80 km/h (50 mph) vehicle speed) Indication on multi-information
display Indication on active driving
display
*1
Long (about 50 m (164 ft))


Medium (about 40 m (131 ft))


Short (about 30 m (98 ft))


Extremely short (about 25 m (82 ft))


*1 Displays a pop-up image in the active driving display only when the driv\
er operates the switch.


NOTE
   The distance-between-vehicles differs depending on the vehicle speed, an\
d 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
Mazda Radar Cruise Control with Stop
& Go function (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 (SCBS)
has operated.
   When traveling on a downslope for a
long period of time.
   There is a problem with the system.  The engine has stalled.  The electric parking brake (EPB) is
automatically applied during stop hold
control.
   The radar sensor (front) cannot detect
target objects (during rain, fog, snow or
other inclement weather conditions, or
when the radiator grille is dirty).

Resuming control
If the Mazda Radar Cruise Control with
Stop & Go function (MRCC with Stop &
Go function) system is canceled, 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 Mazda Radar Cruise Control
with Stop & Go function (MRCC with
Stop & Go function) system is operating to
switch off the system.

Resume driving information
If you do not resume driving within a few seconds after the vehicle ahea\
d starts moving,
the multi-information display vehicle-ahead indication fl ashes to urge the driver to resume
driving.
Cruise Control Function
While this function is operating, the
headway control operation is canceled and
only the cruise control function operates.
The vehicle speed can be set more than
about 25 km/h (16 mph).
Use the cruise control function on
expressways and other highways which do
not require a lot of repeated acceleration
and deceleration.
WARNING
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 traffi c is heavy and there is
insuffi cient space between vehicles.
(Driving under these conditions
using the cruise control function is
not possible)
 Steep down slopes (Set speed may be exceeded because suffi cient
engine braking cannot be applied)
 Slippery roads such as ice or snow- bound roads (Tires 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 canceled 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.

Switching to cruise control function
When the MODE switch is pressed while
the Mazda Radar Cruise Control with Stop
& Go function (MRCC with Stop & Go
function) system is turned on, the system
switches to the cruise control function.
When the system switches to the cruise
control function, the indicator and multi-
information display notify the driver as
follows:
  The Mazda Radar Cruise Control with
Stop & Go function (MRCC with Stop
& Go function) set indication (green)
or the Mazda Radar Cruise Control
with Stop & Go function (MRCC with
Stop & Go function) main indication
(white) is turned off, and the cruise main
indication (white) is turned on.
   A message is displayed in the multi-
information display.

WARNING
Always turn off the cruise control
function when it is not in use: Leaving the cruise control function
turned on when it is not in use
is dangerous as it could operate
unexpectedly, resulting in an accident.

How to set the speed
Adjust the system to the desired vehicle
speed using the accelerator pedal.
When the SET
or SET switch is
pressed, the cruise set indication (green) is
turned on and headway control begins.
