NOTE
The Lane-keep Assist System (LAS)
& Lane Departure Warning System
(LDWS) does not operate until the
system detects white (yellow) lane lines
on either the left or right.
When the system detects a white
(yellow) lane line on one side only, the
system will not operate the steering
wheel operation assist for the lane line
on the side that is not being detected.
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
activated and an alert is indicated in the
multi-information display.
If the steering wheel is held lightly,
or depending on the road conditions,
the system may detect that you have
released the steering wheel (not holding
the steering wheel) even if you are
holding it, and display a message in the
multi-information display.
The timing at which the lane departure
warning is activated and the steering
wheel operation assist is performed
varies.
The following settings for the Lane-
keep Assist System (LAS) & Lane
Departure Warning System (LDWS) can
be changed. Refer to Personalization

NOTE
If you have set the lane departure warning sound to the beep sound/rumble sound *1
setting, the warning sound may not be heard depending on the surrounding noise
conditions.
If you have set the lane departure warning system to the steering wheel vibrations setting,
the vibration may not be felt depending on the road surface conditions.
When the setting for the steering operation assist is changed to operational, the warnings
can be set to activate/not activate. (When the setting for the steering operation assist is
changed to non-operational, the warnings cannot be set to not activate.)
Refer to Setting Change (Personalization Features) on page 9-11 .
The Lane-keep Assist System (LAS) & Lane Departure Warning System (LDWS) can be
changed to the following settings regardless of whether the steering operation assist has
been set to operational/non-operational. Always check the setting status when driving the
vehicle and make setting changes if necessary.

Do not rely completely on the Smart City Brake Support (SCBS) system:
The Smart City Brake Support (SCBS) system is only designed to reduce damage in the
event of a collision. Over reliance on the system leading to the accelerator pedal or
brake pedal being mistakenly operated could result in an accident.
The Smart City Brake Support (SCBS) is a system which operates in response to a
vehicle ahead. The system may not be able to detect or react to two-wheeled vehicles
or pedestrians.
The laser sensor (front) for the Smart City Brake Support (SCBS) system is installed near
the rearview mirror. To assure the correct operation of the Smart City Brake Support
(SCBS), heed the following cautions.
Do not apply stickers to the surface of the windshield near the laser sensor (front)
(including transparent stickers). Otherwise, the laser sensor (front) may not be able
to detect vehicles ahead which could result in an accident.
Do not apply coating agent to the windshield. Otherwise, the laser sensor (front)
may not be able to detect vehicles or obstructions in front which could result in an
accident.
Do not disassemble the laser sensor (front).
If cracks or damage caused by fl ying gravel or debris is visible near the laser sensor
(front), stop using the Smart City Brake Support (SCBS) system immediately and
have your vehicle inspected by an Authorized Mazda Dealer. If the vehicle continues
to be driven with cracks or scratch marks left on the windshield near the laser sensor
(front), the system may operate unnecessarily and cause an unexpected accident.
Refer to Stopping the Smart City Brake Support (SCBS) System Operation on page
4-132 .
When replacing the windshield wipers or windshield, consult an Authorized Mazda
Dealer.
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 Smart City Brake Support (SCBS) system not
operating normally or mistakenly operating, which could cause a serious accident.
Turn off the Smart City Brake Support (SCBS) when the vehicle is running on a chassis
roller or being towed:
Turn off the Smart City Brake Support (SCBS) system to prevent mistaken operation when
the vehicle is running on a chassis roller or being towed.
Refer to the Stopping the Smart City Brake Support (SCBS) System Operation on page
4-132 on how to turn off the Smart City Brake Support (SCBS) system.
