Traffic Sign Recognition System (TSR)*
The TSR helps prevent the driver from overlooking traffic signs , and provides support for
safer driving by displaying traffic signs on the active driving display/instrument cluster
which are recognized by the Forward Sensing Camera (FSC) or rec orded in the navigation
system while the v ehicle is driven.
The TSR displays the speed limit , do not enter, and traffic stop signs.
If the vehicle speed exceeds the speed limit sign indicated in the active driving display/
instrument cluster while the veh icle is driven, the system noti fies the driver using the
indication in the active driving display/instrument cluster and a warning sound.
NOTE
The TSR is not supported in some countries or regions. For information concerning the
supported countries or regions, consult an Authorized Mazda Dealer.
The TSR operates only if the navigation system SD card (Mazda genuine) is inserted in
the SD card slot. Consult an Authorized Mazda Dealer for details.

▼Traffic Sign Display Indication
The following traffic signs are displayed
on the active driving display/instrument
cluster.
Speed limit signs
Do not enter signs
Stop signs
NOTE
Speed limit signs
When the vehicle speed is about 1 km/h
(0.6 mph) or faster, the speed limit sign
is displayed when any one of the
following conditions are met.
The Forward Sensing Camera (FSC)
recognizes a speed limit sign as a sign
targeted for your vehicle and the
vehicle passes it.
The speed limit sign stored in the
navigation system is read (if the
Forward Sensing Camera (FSC) does
not recognize a speed limit sign).
In the following cases, display of the
speed limit sign stops.
The Forward Sensing Camera (FSC)
recognizes the speed limit sign and the
vehicle is driven for a certain distance
after passing the sign.
Each sensor determines that the
vehicle has changed direction of
travel.
The Forward Sensing Camera (FSC)
recognizes a new speed limit sign
which differs from the previous one
(displays the new speed limit sign).
The speed limit sign stored in the
navigation system is not read within a
certain period of time (if the Forward
Sensing Camera (FSC) does not
recognize a speed limit sign, the speed
limit sign stored in the navigation
system is displayed).
The vehicle speed exceeds the
displayed speed limit sign by 30 km/h
(19 mph) or more after a certain
period of time has elapsed since the
speed limit sign
was displayed.
(Except when there is information for
the speed limit sign in the navigation
system)
Do not enter signs
A do not enter sign is displayed when all
of the following conditions are met.
The vehicle speed is about 60 km/h
(37 mph) or slower.
