2018 MAZDA MODEL 6 Owner's Manual (in English)

¾Roads where frequent and repetitive acceleration and deceleration occur (Driving under
these conditions using the MRCC with Stop & Go function system is not possible).
¾When 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).
¾Slippery roads such as ice or snow-bound roads (Tyres could spin causing you to lose
vehicle control, or the stop hold control may not operate.)
¾Long, descending slopes (to maintain distance between vehicles, the system automatically
and continuously applies the brakes which could result in the loss of brake power.)
¾Slopes 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 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
MRCC with Stop & Go function system off, shift the selector lever to the P position, and apply
the parking brake.
&$87,21
If your vehicle is towed or you are towing something, switch the MRCC with Stop & Go
function system off to prevent a mis-operation.
NOTE
xThe MRCC with Stop & Go function system does not detect the following as physical
objects.
xVehicles approaching in the opposite direction
xPedestrians
xStationary objects (stopped vehicles, obstructions)
xIf a vehicle ahead is travelling at an extremely low speed, the system may not detect it
correctly.
xDuring headway control travel, do not set the system for detection of two-wheeled
vehicles such as motorcycles and bicycles.
xDo not use the MRCC with Stop & Go function system under conditions in which close
proximity warnings are frequently activated.
:KHQ'ULYLQJ
L$&7,96(16(


xDuring headway control travel, the system accelerates and decelerates your vehicle in
conjunction with the speed of the vehicle ahead. However, if it is necessary to accelerate
for a lane change or if the vehicle ahead brakes suddenly causing you to close in on the
vehicle rapidly, accelerate using the accelerator pedal or decelerate using the brake
pedal depending on the conditions.
xWhile the MRCC with Stop & Go function system is in use, it does not cancel even if the
selector lever is operated and any intended engine braking does not occur. If deceleration
is required, lower the set speed or depress the brake pedal.
xThe sound of the automatic brakes operating may be heard, however, it does not indicate
a problem.
xThe brake lights turn on while the MRCC with Stop & Go function automatic braking is
operating, however, they may not turn on while the vehicle is on a downslope at the set
vehicle speed or travelling at a constant speed and following a vehicle ahead.

xDirectly after the accelerator pedal is released.
xAnother vehicle cuts into the driving lane.

NOTE
xIf a vehicle ahead is detected while travelling at a constant speed, the vehicle-ahead
indication is displayed and headway control is performed. Additionally, when a vehicle
ahead is no longer detected, the vehicle-ahead indication turns off and the system
switches back to travel at constant speed.
xThe lowest possible speed which can be set on the MRCC with Stop & Go function system
is 30 km/h (19 mph).
xHeadway control is not possible if the vehicle ahead is driving faster than your vehicle's
set speed. Adjust the system to the desired vehicle speed using the accelerator pedal.
