When Driving
Drive Selection
Drive Selection
Drive selection is a system to switch the vehicle's drive mode. When the sport mode
is selected, vehicle's response against accelerator operation is enhance\
d. This provides
additional quick acceleration which may be needed to safely make maneuve\
rs such as lane
changes, merging onto freeways, or passing other vehicles.
CAUTION
Do not use the sport mode when driving on slippery roads such as wet or snow-covered
roads. It may cause tire slipping.

NOTE
  When the sport mode is selected, driving at higher engine speeds increases and it may
increase fuel consumption. Mazda recommends that you cancel the sport mode on normal
driving.
  Drive mode cannot be switched in the following conditions:   ABS/TCS/DSC is operating  The Mazda Radar Cruise Control (MRCC) system/cruise control is operating.  Steering wheel is being operated abruptly

Drive Selection Switch
Press the drive selection switch forward
(“
”) to select the sport mode.
Pull the drive selection switch back
(“
”) to cancel the sport mode.



NOTE
   When the ignition is switched off, the
sport mode is canceled.
  Depending on the driving conditions
when sport mode is selected, the vehicle
may perform shift-down or slightly
accelerate.

Select Mode Indication
When the sport mode is selected, the select
mode indication turns on in the instrument
cluster.


NOTE
If the drive selection cannot be switched
to sport mode, the select mode indication
fl ashes to notify the driver.

*Some models.
i-ACTIVSENSE *
i-ACTIVSENSE is a collective term covering a series of advanced safety a\
nd driver support
systems which make use of a Forward Sensing Camera (FSC) and radar sen\
sors. These
systems consist of active safety and pre-crash safety systems.
These systems are designed to assist the driver in safer driving by redu\
cing the load on the
driver and helping to avert collisions or reduce their severity. However, because each system
has its limitations, always drive carefully and do not rely solely on th\
e systems.
Active Safety Technology
Active Safety Technology supports safer driving by helping the driver to recognize potential
hazards and avert accidents.

Camera and Sensors
Forward Sensing Camera (FSC)
The Forward Sensing Camera (FSC) detects lane indications and recogniz\
es headlights,
taillights and city lights during nighttime driving. In addition, it als\
o detects the vehicle
ahead, pedestrians, or obstructions. The following systems also use the Forward Sensing
Camera (FSC).
  High Beam Control system (HBC)  Lane-keep Assist System (LAS) & Lane Departure Warning System (LDWS)  Traffi c Sign Recognition System (TSR)  Mazda Radar Cruise Control with Stop & Go function (MRCC with Stop & Go\
function)  Smart City Brake Support (SCBS)  Smart Brake Support (SBS)
The Forward Sensing Camera (FSC) is installed at the top of the windsh\
ield near the
rearview mirror.
Refer to Forward Sensing Camera (FSC) on page 4-156 .
Radar sensor (front)
The radar sensor (front) functions by detecting the radio waves re fl ected off a vehicle ahead
sent from the radar sensor. The following systems also use the radar sensor (front).
   Mazda Radar Cruise Control with Stop & Go function (MRCC with Stop & Go\
function)  Distance Recognition Support System (DRSS)  Smart Brake Support (SBS)
The radar sensor (front) is mounted behind the radiator grille.
Refer to Radar Sensor (Front) on page 4-162 .

*Some models.
Mazda Radar Cruise Control with Stop & Go function
(MRCC with Stop & Go function)
*
The Mazda Radar Cruise Control with Stop & Go function (MRCC with Stop & Go
function) system is designed to maintain headway control *1 with a vehicle ahead according
to your vehicle's speed using a radar sensor (front) to detect the dis\
tance to the vehicle ahead
and a preset vehicle speed without you having to use the accelerator or \
brake pedals.

*1 Headway Control: Control of the distance between your vehicle and the ve\
hicle ahead detected by the Mazda Radar Cruise Control (MRCC) system.

Additionally, if your vehicle starts closing in on the vehicle ahead such as if the \
vehicle
ahead brakes suddenly, a warning sound and a warning indication in the display are
activated simultaneously to alert you to maintain a suf fi cient distance between the vehicles.
If the vehicle ahead stops while you are following behind it, your vehic\
le will stop and be
held stopped automatically (stop hold control), and headway control wi\
ll resume when you
resume driving the vehicle such as by pressing the RES switch.
Also refer to the following before using the Mazda Radar Cruise Control \
with Stop & Go
function (MRCC with Stop & Go function).
   AUTOHOLD (page 4-75 )  Forward Sensing Camera (FSC) (page 4-156 )  Radar sensor (front) (page 4-162 )
WARNING
Do not rely completely on the Mazda Radar Cruise Control with Stop & Go function
(MRCC with Stop & Go function):
The Mazda Radar Cruise Control with Stop & Go function (MRCC with Stop & Go function)
system is designed to reduce load on the driver, and although it maintains a constant
vehicle speed, or specifi cally, it maintains a constant distance between your vehicle and
the detected vehicle ahead according to your vehicle speed, the system has detection
limitations depending on the type of vehicle ahead and its conditions, the weather
conditions, and the road conditions. Additionally, the system may be unable to decelerate
suffi ciently to avoid hitting the vehicle ahead if the vehicle ahead applies the brakes
suddenly or another vehicle cuts into the driving lane, which could result in an accident.
Always drive carefully and verify the surrounding conditions and depress the brake pedal
or accelerator pedal while keeping a safer distance from vehicles ahead or on-coming
vehicles.

When Driving
i-ACTIVSENSE
Do not use the Mazda Radar Cruise Control with Stop & Go function (MRCC with Stop &
Go function) system in the following locations, using the Mazda Radar Cruise Control
with Stop & Go function (MRCC with Stop & Go function) system at the following
locations may result in an unexpected accident:
 General roads other than highways (Driving under these conditions using the Mazda Radar Cruise Control with Stop & Go function (MRCC with Stop & Go function) system
is not possible.)
 Roads with sharp curves and where vehicle traffi c is heavy and there is insuffi cient
space between vehicles.
 Roads where frequent and repetitive acceleration and deceleration occur (Driving under these conditions using the Mazda Radar Cruise Control with Stop & Go function
(MRCC with Stop & Go function) system is not possible).
 When entering and exiting interchanges, service areas, and parking areas of highways (If you exit a highway while headway control is in use, the vehicle ahead will no longer
be tracked and your vehicle may accelerate to the set speed).
 Slippery roads such as ice or snow-bound roads (Tires could spin causing you to lose vehicle control, or the stop hold control may not operate.)
 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 ahead 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 Mazda Radar Cruise Control with Stop & Go function
(MRCC with Stop & Go function) system off when it is not being used.
Do not get out of the vehicle while the stop hold control is operating: Getting out of the vehicle while the stop hold control is operating is dangerous as the
vehicle may move unexpectedly and result in an accident. Before getting out of the
vehicle, switch the Mazda Radar Cruise Control with Stop & Go function (MRCC with Stop
& Go function) system off , shift the selector lever to the P position, and apply the electric
parking brake (EPB).

CAUTION
If your vehicle is towed or you are towing something, switch the Mazda Radar Cruise
Control with Stop & Go function (MRCC with Stop & Go function) system off to prevent a
miss-operation.
