Distance & Speed Alert
(DSA)
*
▼Distance & Speed Alert (DSA)
The DSA is a system which provides
advice for maintaining the appropriate
distance between vehicles and
notifies
the driver of the recommended, safe
distance to maintain with a vehicle
ahead. The system measures the
distance between your vehicle and a
vehicle ahead while the vehicle speed
is about 30 km/h (19 mph) or faster. If
the distance between your vehicle and
the vehicle ahead is continuously
close, the system alerts the driver of a
possible collision using an indication
on the display and suppresses your
vehicle speed
*1 to prevent it from
approaching the vehicle ahead too
closely.
*1 The function which suppresses your
vehicle speed is not available in
some markets.
WARNING
Do not rely completely on the
DSA:
The ability of the system to detect a
vehicle ahead is limited depending on
the type of vehicle ahead, weather
conditions, or traffic conditions. In
addition, the system is not for
maintaining the distance between your
vehicle and a vehicle ahead. If you
neglect to operate the accelerator and
brake pedals correctly, it could lead to
an accident. Always check the safety of
the surrounding area and depress the
brake pedal or accelerator pedal while
keeping a safe distance from vehicles
ahead or on-coming vehicles.
Operation conditions
The DSA operates when the following
conditions are all met.
xThe ignition is switched ON.xThe DSA is turned on.xThe shift lever (manual transmission
vehicle) or the selector lever
(automatic transmission vehicle) is in
a position other than R.
xThe vehicle speed is about 30 km/h
(19 mph) or faster.
xi-ACTIVSENSE status symbol
(warning/risk avoidance support
system) (green) is displayed.
NOTE
xThe objects which activate the
system are four-wheeled vehicles.
xThe DSA may also operate in the
presence of motorcycles and
bicycles.
xThe DSA may not operate normally
when the speed of a vehicle ahead is
too slow.
xThe system does not operate with
the following objects.
xVehicles approaching in the
opposite direction.
xStationary objects (stopped
vehicles, obstructions)
xThe DSA can be set to inoperable.
x(If only the DSA is turned off)
Refer to the Settings section in the
Mazda Connect Owner's Manual.
x(If the DSA is turned off by
operating the i-ACTIVSENSE
switch)
Refer to i-ACTIVSENSE Switch on
page 4-97.

xIf the ignition is switched OFF while
you have cancelled the system using
the i-ACTIVSENSE switch, the system
is automatically enabled the next
time the ignition is switched ON.
However, if the system is cancelled
using the personalisation features,
the system is not automatically
enabled.
▼Vehicle Ahead Close Proximity
Warn in g
When the system determines that the
distance between your vehicle and a
vehicle ahead is close, the
i-ACTIVSENSE status symbol (warning/
risk avoidance support system)
changes from green to amber and the
warning indication is displayed on the
multi-information display. While
checking the safety of the surrounding
area, depress the brake pedal while
keeping a safe distance from the
vehicle ahead.
Driver Attention Alert
(DAA)
*
▼Driver Attention Alert (DAA)
The DAA is a system which detects
driver fatigue and decreased
attentiveness, and encourages the
driver to take a rest.
When the vehicle is driven inside traffic
lane lines at about 65 to 140 km/h
(41 to 86 mph), the DAA estimates the
amount of accumulated fatigue and
decreased attentiveness of the driver
based on the information from the
Forward Sensing Camera (FSC) and
other vehicle information, and
encourages the driver to take a rest
using an indication on the
multi-information display and a
warning sound.
Use the DAA on expressways or
highways.
Refer to Forward Sensing Camera
(FSC) on page 4-216.

i-ACTIVSENSE
*Some models.4-119

WARNING
Do not rely completely on DAA and
always drive carefully:
The DAA detects driver fatigue and
decreased attentiveness and
encourages the driver to take a rest,
however, it is not designed to prevent
the vehicle from straying. If you rely too
much on the DAA it could lead to an
accident. Drive carefully and operate
the steering wheel appropriately.
In addition, the system may not be
able to detect driver fatigue and
decreased attentiveness correctly
depending on the
traffic and driving
conditions. The driver must take
sufficient rest in order to drive safely.
NOTE
xThe DAA operates when all of the
following conditions are met.
xThe vehicle speed is about 65 to
140 km/h (41 to 86 mph).
xThe system detects white (yellow)
lane lines.
xThe system has completed learning
of the driver’s driving data after 60
minutes have passed since the
driver began driving vehicle.
xThe DAA does not operate under the
following conditions.
xThe vehicle speed is less than
about 65 km/h (41 mph).
xThe vehicle speed exceeds about
140 km/h (86 mph)
xThe vehicle is making a sharp turn.xThe vehicle is changing lanes.xThe system cannot detect white
(yellow) lane lines.
xThe DAA may not operate normally
under the following conditions.
xWhite (yellow) lane lines are less
visible because of dirt or fading/
patchiness.
xThe vehicle is jolted or swayed
continuously by strong winds or
rough roads.
xThe vehicle is driven aggressively.xWhen making frequent lane
changes.
xThe vehicle is making a curve.xThe DAA detects driver fatigue and
decreased attentiveness based on
the driving data when the vehicle is
driven at about 65 to 140 km/h (41
to 86 mph) for about 20 minutes.
The driving data will be reset under
the following conditions.
xThe vehicle is stopped for 15
minutes or longer.
xThe vehicle is driven at less than
about 65 km/h (41 mph) for
about 30 minutes.
xThe ignition is switched
off.xAfter the DAA has displayed the first
message encouraging rest, it does
not display the next one until 60
minutes have passed.
▼Driver Attention Alert (DAA)
Display
When the system detects driver fatigue
or decreased attentiveness, it activates
the warning sound and displays an
alert in the multi-information display.

Rear Cross Traffic Alert
(RCTA)
*
▼Rear Cross Traffic Alert (RCTA)
The RCTA system is designed to assist
the driver in checking the area to the
rear left and right sides of your vehicle
while your vehicle is reversing by
alerting the driver to the presence of
vehicles approaching the rear of your
vehicle.
The RCTA system detects vehicles
approaching from the rear left and
right sides of your vehicle and the rear
of your vehicle while your vehicle is
being reversed out of a parking space,
and notifies the driver of possible
danger using the Blind Spot Monitoring
(BSM) warning indicator lights and the
warning buzzer.

xIn the following cases, it may be
difficult to view the illumination/
flashing of the Blind Spot Monitoring
(BSM) warning indicator lights
equipped on the door mirrors.
xSnow or ice adheres to the door
mirrors.
xThe front door glass is fogged or
covered in snow, frost or dirt.
xTurn off the RCTA system while
pulling a trailer or while an accessory
such as a bicycle carrier is installed to
the rear of the vehicle. Otherwise,
the radio waves emitted by the radar
will be blocked causing the system to
not operate normally.
xThe rear side radar sensor of the
RCTA may be regulated under the
radio wave related laws of the
country where the vehicle is driven. If
this system is used abroad, it may be
necessary to turn off the system.

NOTE
xThe distance-between-vehicles differs depending on the vehicle speed, and the
slower the vehicle speed, the shorter the distance.
xWhen the ignition is switched to ACC or OFF and then the engine is started again,
the system automatically sets the distance-between-vehicles to the previous

Changing the Set Vehicle Speed
(To accelerate/decelerate using the
RES switch)
When the RES switch is pressed up
(SET+), the vehicle accelerates and
when the RES switch is pressed down
(SET-), it decelerates.
xPress and release immediately: 1
km/h (1 mph)
xPress and hold: 10 km/h (5 mph)
(To increase speed using accelerator
pedal)
Depress the accelerator pedal and
press the RES switch up (SET+) or
down (SET-) at the desired speed. If
the switch is not operated, the system
returns to the set speed after you
release your foot from the accelerator
pedal.
NOTE
xThe warnings and brake control do
not operate while the accelerator
pedal is depressed.
x(European models)
When switching to a passing lane
and operating the direction
indicator, the system provides more
acceleration automatically if it
determines that more acceleration is
required. Drive while being careful of
the road ahead because you could
approach the vehicle ahead too
closely.
Cancelling the system
When the following operations are
performed, the MRCC system is
cancelled, and the MRCC set
indication (green) switches to the
