The Rear Cross Traffic Alert (RCTA)
uses rear side radar sensor to detect
vehicles approaching from the rear
left and right sides of the vehicle,
and it assists the driver in checking
the rear of the vehicle while reversing
by flashing the Blind Spot Monitoring
(BSM) warning lights and activating
the warning sound.
Refer to Rear Cross Traffic Alert
(RCTA) on page 4-126.
360°View Monitor Range
1. Cameras
2. Ultrasonic sensors
3. Front/Rear side radar sensors
WARNING
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 width 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
¾Do not use the 360°View Monitor
under any of the following
conditions.
¾Icy or snow-covered roads.
¾Tyre chains or a temporary spare
tyre is installed.
¾The front or rear doors are not fully
closed.
¾The vehicle is on a road incline.
¾The door mirrors are retracted.
¾Do not hit the front/rear camera,
front bumper, liftgate, and door
mirrors forcefully. The camera
position or installation angle may
shift.
¾The cameras are waterproof. Do not
disassemble, modify, or remove a
camera.
¾The 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.
¾Do 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.

Please note that the TPMS is not a
substitute for proper tyre
maintenance, and it is the driver's
responsibility to maintain correct tyre
pressure, even if under-inflation has
not reached the level to trigger
illumination of the TPMS low tyre
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 tyre 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 tyre pressure as
intended. TPMS malfunctions may
occur for a variety of reasons,
including the installation of
replacement or alternate tyres or
wheels on the vehicle that prevent
the TPMS from functioning properly.
Always check the TPMS malfunction
telltale after replacing one or more
tyres or wheels on your vehicle to
ensure that the replacement or
alternate tyres and wheels allow the
TPMS to continue to function
properly.
¾To avoid false readings, the system
samples for a little while before
indicating a problem. As a result it
will not instantaneously register a
rapid tyre deflation or blow out.▼If there is a problem with the Tyre
Pressure Monitoring System
(TPMS)
If the TPMS warning light flashes, there
may be a problem with the system.
Consult an expert repairer (we
recommend an Authorised Mazda
Repairer) to have the system inspected.
Refer to Tyre Pressure Monitoring
System (TPMS) Warning Indication/
Warning Light (Flashing) on page
7-57.
In the following cases, the system
cannot recognise the tyre pressures
correctly and the TPMS warning light
may flash.
xThere is equipment or a device
nearby emitting radio signals the
same as a tyre pressure sensor.
xA metallic object such as a
non-genuine electronic device is
installed near the centre of the
instrument panel (obstructs the radio
signals from the tyre pressure sensors
to the receiver).
xA device such as one of the following
is used in the cabin.
xElectronic devices such as a
computer.
xConverter devices such as a
DC-AC converter.
xThere is a large accumulation of
snow or ice around the vehicle tyres.
xThe battery in a tyre pressure sensor
is dead.
xA wheel not equipped with a tyre
pressure sensor is used.
xTyres employing steel in the sidewall
of the tyre are installed.
xTyre chains are used.
▼When a tyre pressure decreases
If the TPMS warning light turns on, a
tyre pressure may be low. Inspect the

Rear View Monitor*
▼Rear View Monitor
The rear view monitor provides visual
images of the rear of the vehicle when
reversing.
WARNING
Always drive carefully confirming the
safety of the rear and the surrounding
conditions by looking directly with
your eyes:
Reversing the vehicle by only looking at
the screen is dangerous as it may cause
an accident or a collision with an
object. The rear view monitor is only a
visual assist device when reversing the
vehicle. The images on the screen may
be
different from the actual conditions.
CAUTION
¾Do not use the rear view monitor
under the following conditions:
Using the rear view monitor under
the following conditions is
dangerous and could result in injury
or vehicle damage or both.
¾Icy or snow-covered roads.
¾Tyre chains or a temporary spare
tyre is installed.
¾The vehicle is on a road incline.
¾When the display is cold, images
may course across the monitor or the
screen and may be dimmer than
usual, which could cause difficulty in
confirming the surrounding
conditions of the vehicle. Always
drive carefully confirming the safety
of the rear and the surrounding
conditions by looking directly with
your eyes.
¾Do not apply excessive force to the
camera. The camera position and
angle may deviate.
¾Do not disassemble, modify, or
remove it as it may no longer be
waterproof.
¾The camera cover is made of plastic.
Do not apply degreasing agents,
organic solvents, wax, or glass
coating agents to the camera cover.
If any are spilled on the cover, wipe
off with a soft cloth immediately.
¾Do not rub the camera cover
forcefully with an abrasive or hard
brush. The camera cover or lens may
be scratched which might affect the
images.
NOTE
xIf water, snow, or mud is stuck on
the camera lens, wipe it
off using a
soft cloth. If it cannot be wiped off,
use a mild detergent.
xIf the camera temperature changes
rapidly (Hot to cold, cold to hot), the
rear view monitor may not operate
correctly.
xWhen replacing the tyres, consult an
expert repairer (we recommend an
Authorised Mazda Repairer).
Replacing the tyres could result in
deviation of the guide lines which
appear on the display.
xIf the vehicle's front, side, or rear has
been involved in a collision, the
alignment of the rear view parking
camera (location, installation angle)
may have deviated. Always consult
an expert repairer (we recommend
an Authorised Mazda Repairer) to
have the vehicle inspected.
