Smart Brake Support[Rear Crossing]
(SBS-RC)
*
▼ Smart Brake Support [Rear
Crossing] (SBS-RC)
The SBS-RC is a system designed to assist
the driver in avoiding collisions and to
reduce damage in the e
vent of a collision
by applying the brakes if there is the
possibility of collision with a vehicle
approaching from the rear while you are
reversing out of parking space.
The SBS-RC system detects vehicles
approaching from the rear left and right
sides of the vehicle, and the rear of the
vehicle while the vehicle is being reversed
out of a parking space, the system reduces
damage in the event of a collision by
operating the brake control when the
system determines that a collision is
unavoidable.
SBS-RC operation
1. The SBS-RC system operates when the
shift lever (manual transmission) or the
selector lever (auto matic transmission)
is shifted to the reverse (R) position.
2. If there is the poss ibility of a collision
with an approaching vehicle, the
SBS-RC system applies brake and
displays “BRAKE!” on the active
driving display and the
multi-information display.
WA R N I N G
Always check the surrounding area visually
before actually putting the vehicle in
reverse:
The system is only designed to assist you in
backing out of the lot when putting the
vehicle in reverse. Due to certain limitations
with the operation of this system, the
SBS-RC system may not operate brake or it
might be delayed even though a vehicle is
behind your vehicle. Always make it your
responsibility as a driver to check the rear.
Do not rely completely on the SBS-RC
system:
The SBS-RC 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 SBS-RC system operates in response
to a vehicle. The system does not operate
in response to obstructions such as a
wall, pedestrians, 2-wheeled vehicles, or
animals.

the vehicle.
Parking sensor
If there are any obstructions near the
vehicle while the top view/side view is

indication turns on around the bumper in
the center display.
The parking sensors use ultrasonic
sensors to detect obstructions around the
vehicle when the vehicle is driven at low
speeds, such as during garage or parallel
parking, and notifies the driver of the
approximate distance from the vehicle to
the surrounding obstruction using sound
and an obstruction detection indication.
Refer to Parking Sensor System on page
4-233.
Front Cross Traffic Alert (FCTA)
If there is the possibility of a collision
with an approaching vehicle while the
front view/front wide view/side view is
displayed, a warning is displayed on the

WA R N I N G
Always confirm the safety of the area
around the vehicle with the mirrors and
directly with your eyes when driving.
The 360°View Monitor is an auxiliary device
which assists the driver in checking the
safety of the area around the vehicle.
The shooting range of the cameras and
detection range of the sensors are limited.
For example, the areas in black at the front
and rear of the vehicle image and the
seams where each of the camera images
merge are blind spots where an obstruction
may not be visible. In addition, the
extended vehicle widt h lines and projected
vehicle path lines are only to be used as
references, and the images on the screen
may differ from the actual conditions.
CAUTION
Do not use the 360°View Monitor under
any of the following conditions.
Icy or snow-covered roads.
Tire chains or a temporary spare tire is
installed.
The front doors or the rear doors is not
fully closed.
The vehicle is on a road incline.
The door mirrors are retracted.
Do not hit the front/rear camera, front/
rear bumper, and door mirrors forcefully.
The camera position or installation angle
may shift.
The cameras are of a waterproof
structure. Do not di sassemble, modify, or
remove a camera.
The camera cover is made of hard
plastic, therefore do not apply oil film
remover, organic solvents, wax, or
coating agents. If any such agent gets on
the camera cover, wipe it
off using a soft
cloth immediately.
Do not rub the camera lens forcefully, or
clean it with an abrasive or hard brush.
Otherwise, it could scratch the camera
lens and negatively affect the images.
Consult an Authorized Mazda Dealer for
repair, painting, or replacement of the
front/rear camera, front/rear bumper
and door mirrors.
Heed the following cautions to assure
that the 360°View Monitor operates
normally.
Do not modify the vehicle suspensions
or lower/raise the vehicle body, or
both.
Always use wheels of the
specified type
and size for the front and rear wheels.
Consult an Authorized Mazda Dealer
for tire replacement.
When the display is cold, images may
leave trails or the screen might be darker
than usual, making it
difficult to check
the vehicle surroundings. Always confirm
the safety at the front and around the
vehicle visually when driving.
The method for parking/stopping the
vehicle using the 360°View Monitor
differs depending on the road
circumstances/conditions and the
vehicle conditions. When and how much
you turn the steering wheel will differ
depending on the situation, , therefore
always check the vehicle surroundings
directly with your eyes while using the
