centre display to verify the problem
and then have your vehicle inspected

an Authorised Mazda Repairer).

while you are travelling in headway
control, the warning sound activates

the surrounding area and depress the
brake pedal while keeping a safe
distance from the vehicle ahead.
Additionally, keep a safe distance from
the vehicles behind you.

the road ahead because you could
approach the vehicle ahead too
closely.
