Always check the surrounding area visually
before actually putting the vehicle in
reverse:
The system is only designed to assist you in
checking for vehicles at the rear when
putting the vehicle in reverse. Due to
certain limitations with the operation of
this system, the Blind Spot Monitoring
(BSM) warning indicator lights may not
flash 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.
RCTA operation
1. The RCTA system operates when the shift lever (manual transmission) or the
selector lever (automatic transmission)
is shifted to the reverse (R) position.
2. If there is the poss ibility of a collision
with an approaching vehicle, the Blind
Spot Monitoring (BSM) warning
indicator lights flashes and the warning
beep is activated simultaneously.
Rear view monitor (vehicles with
Rear view monitor)
The RCTA warning indication in the
rearview monitor also synchronizes
with the Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM)
warning indicator light on the door
mirrors.
360°view monitor (vehicles with
360°view monitor)
The RCTA warning indication in the
360°view monitor also synchronizes
with the Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM)
warning indicator light on the door
mirrors.
Function for cancelling illumination
dimmer
If the BSM warning i ndicator lights turn
on when the parking lights are turned on,
the brightness of the BSM warning
indicator lights is dimmed.
If the BSM warning i ndicator lights are
difficult to see due to glare from
surrounding brightness when traveling on
snow-covered roads or under foggy
conditions, press the dimmer cancellation
button to cancel the dimmer and increase
the brightness of BSM warning indicator
lights when they turn on.

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.

Also, before using the system, always
make sure that the vehicle can be
parked/stopped in the parking/stopping
space.
NOTE
If there are water droplets, snow, or mud
on the camera lens, wipe it off using a
soft cloth. If the camera lens is
especially dirty, wash it off with mild
detergent.
If the camera lens is touched or there is
any dirt on it, it could affect the screen
image. Wipe the lens using a soft cloth.
If the area where the camera is
installed, such as the front/rear bumper
or door mirrors, has been damaged in a
vehicle accident, the camera (position,
installation angle) may have shifted.
Always consult an Authorized Mazda
Dealer to have the vehicle inspected.
If the camera is subjected to excessive
changes in temperature such as by
pouring hot water on the camera during
cold weather, the 360°View Monitor may
not operate normally.
If the battery voltage is low, the screen
might be temporarily difficult to view,
however, this does not indicate a
problem.
The 360°View Monitor has limitations.
Objects under the bumper or near both
ends of the bumper cannot be displayed.
Obstructions above the upper image
range of the camera are not displayed.
Under the following conditions, the
screen might be difficult to view,
however this does not indicate a
problem.
The temperature near the lens is high/
low.
Rainy conditions, water droplets on
the camera, or high humidity.
Mud or foreign matter near the
camera.
Extremely bright light such as sunlight
or headlights hitting the camera lens
directly.
The surroundings are illuminated by
vehicle lights, fluorescent lights, or
LED lights (Display may flicker).
Extremely small dark or white dots
appear on the screen (dots may
flicker).
Because the 360°View Monitor camera
uses a special lens, the distance
displayed on the screen differs from the
actual distance.
Obstructions displayed on the screen
may appear differently than in actuality.
(Obstructions may appear fallen, larger,
or longer than they actually are.)
Do not apply stickers to a camera or the

Please note that the TPMS is not a
substitute for proper tire maintenance,
and it is the driver's responsibility to
maintain correct tire pressure, even if
under-inflation has not reached the level
to trigger illumination of the TPMS low
tire pressure telltale.
Your vehicle has also been equipped with
a TPMS malfunction indicator to indicate
when the system is not operating
properly.
The TPMS malfunction indicator is
combined with the low tire pressure
telltale. When the system detects a
malfunction, the telltale will flash for
approximately one minute and then
remain continuously illuminated. This
sequence will continue upon subsequent
vehicle start-ups as long as the
malfunction exists. When the
malfunction indicator is illuminated, the
system may not be able to detect or
signal low tire pressure as intended.
TPMS malfunctions may occur for a
variety of reasons, including the
installation of replacement or alternate
tires or wheels on the vehicle that
prevent the TPMS from functioning
properly. Always check the TPMS
malfunction telltale after replacing one
or more tires or wheels on your vehicle to
ensure that the replacement or alternate
tires and wheels allow the TPMS to
continue to function properly.
 To avoid false readings, the system
samples for a little while before
indicating a problem. As a result it will
not instantaneously register a rapid tire
deflation or blow out.▼ If there is a problem with the Tire
Pressure Monitoring System
(TPMS)
If the TPMS warning light flashes, there
may be a problem with the system.
Consult an Authorized Mazda Dealer to
have the system inspected.
Refer to Tire Pressu
re Monitoring System
(TPMS) Warning Indication/Warning
Light (Flashing) on page 7-32.
In the following cases, the system cannot
recognize the tire pressures correctly and
the TPMS warning light may flash.
There is equipment or a device nearby
emitting radio signals the same as a tire
pressure sensor.
A metallic object such as a non-genuine
electronic device is installed near the
center of the dashboard (obstructs the
radio signals from the tire pressure
sensors to the receiver).
A device such as one of the following is
used in the cabin.
Electronic devices such as a computer.
Converter devices such as a DC-AC
converter.
There is a large accumulation of snow or
ice around the vehicle tires.
The battery in a tir e pressure sensor is
dead.
A wheel not equipped with a tire
pressure sensor is used.
Tires employing steel in the sidewall of
the tire are installed.
Tire chains are used.
