*Some models.
Lane-keep Assist System (LAS) & Lane Departure
Warning System (LDWS)
*
The Lane-keep Assist System (LAS) & Lane Departure Warning System (LDWS) alerts the
driver that the vehicle may be deviating from its lane and it provides s\
teering assistance to
help the driver stay within the vehicle lanes.
The Forward Sensing Camera (FSC) detects the white lines (yellow line\
s) of the vehicle
lane in which the vehicle is traveling and if the system determines that\
the vehicle may
deviate from its lane, it operates the electric power steering to assist\
the driver's steering
operation. The system also alerts the driver by activating a lane departure warning\
sound,
vibrating the steering wheel, and indicating an alert in the display.
Refer to Forward Sensing Camera (FSC) on page 4-156 .

WARNING
Do not rely completely on the Lane-keep Assist System (LAS) & Lane Departure
Warning System (LDWS):
 The Lane-keep Assist System (LAS) & Lane Departure Warning System (LDWS) is not an automatic driving system. In addition, the system is not designed to compensate for a
driver's lack of caution, and over-reliance on the system could lead to an accident.
 The detection ability of the Lane-keep Assist System (LAS) & Lane Departure Warning System (LDWS) is limited. Always stay on course using the steering wheel and drive
with care.

Do not use the Lane-keep Assist System (LAS) & Lane Departure Warning System
(LDWS) in the following cases: The system may not operate adequately according to the actual driving conditions,
resulting in an accident.
 Driving on roads with tight curves. Driving under bad weather conditions (rain, fog, and snow). Slippery roads such as ice or snow-bound roads. Roads with heavy traffi c and insuffi cient distance between vehicles. Roads with no white (yellow) lane lines. Narrow roads resulting from road construction or lane closures. The vehicle is driven on a temporary lane or section with a closed lane resulting from road construction where there may be multiple white (yellow) lane lines or they are
interrupted.
 The tire pressures are not adjusted to the specifi ed pressure. Tires of a diff erent specifi ed size are used, such as an emergency spare tire.
CAUTION
Heed the following cautions so that the Lane-keep Assist System (LAS) & Lane Departure
Warning System (LDWS) can operate normally.
 Do not modify the suspensions. Always use wheels of the specifi ed type and size for the front and rear wheels. Consult an Authorized Mazda Dealer for tire replacement.

NOTE
  When the turn signal lever is operated for a lane change, the Lane-keep \
Assist System
(LAS) & Lane Departure Warning System (LDWS) is automatically disabled. The
Lane-keep Assist System (LAS) & Lane Departure Warning System (LDWS) becomes
operational again when the turn signal lever is returned and the system detects white
(yellow) lane lines while the vehicle is being driven normally within \
its vehicle lane.
  If the steering wheel, accelerator pedal, or brake pedal is operated abr\
uptly and the
vehicle moves close to a white (yellow) line, the system determines th\
at the driver is
making a lane change and the Lane-keep Assist System (LAS) & Lane Departure Warning
System (LDWS) operation is temporarily canceled. The Lane-keep Assist System (LAS)
& Lane Departure Warning System (LDWS) becomes operational again when the system
detects white (yellow) lane lines while the vehicle is being driven no\
rmally within its
vehicle lane.
  If the vehicle deviates from its lane repeatedly within a short period of time, the Lane-
keep Assist System (LAS) & Lane Departure Warning System (LDWS) may not operate.
  When white (yellow) lane lines are not detected, the Lane-keep Assist System (LAS) &
Lane Departure Warning System (LDWS) does not operate.

vehicle lane while the system is on
standby. When all of the following
conditions are met, the Lane-keep Assist
System (LAS) & Lane Departure Warning
System (LDWS) indication (green) is
displayed in the multi-information display,
and the system becomes operational.

(Green)   The engine is running.  The vehicle speed is about 60 km/h

   The system detects white (yellow) lane
lines on both the right and left sides.
   The driver is operating the steering
wheel.
   The driving lane is neither narrow nor
wide.


NOTE
The Lane-keep Assist System (LAS) &
Lane Departure Warning System (LDWS)
indication is white when the system detects
only a white (yellow) line on either the
left or right, and the indication changes
to green when the system detects white
(yellow) lines on both the left and right
sides.

  When the system detects a white
(yellow) lane line on one side only, the
system will not operate the steering
wheel operation assist and the warning
for the lane line on the side that is not
being detected. The steering wheel
operation assist and the warning is only
for a lane deviation on the side that is
being detected.
  If the driver takes his or her hands off
the steering wheel (not holding the
steering wheel), the warning sound is
