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
The DAA operates when all of the
following conditions are met.
The vehicle speed is about 65 to 140
km/h (41 to 86 mph).
The system detects white (yellow) lane
lines.
The system has completed learning of
the driver’s driving data after 60
minutes have passed since the driver
began driving vehicle.
The DAA does not operate under the
following conditions.
The vehicle speed is less than about
65 km/h (41 mph).
The vehicle speed exceeds about 140
km/h (86 mph)
The vehicle is making a sharp turn.
The vehicle is changing lanes.
The system cannot detect white
(yellow) lane lines.
The DAA may not operate normally
under the following conditions.
White (yellow) lane lines are less
visible because of dirt or fading/
patchiness.
The vehicle is jolted or swayed
continuously by strong winds or rough
roads.
The vehicle is driven aggressively.
When making frequent lane changes.
The vehicle is making a curve.
The 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.
The vehicle is stopped for 15 minutes
or longer.
The vehicle is driven at less than
about 65 km/h (41 mph) for about 30
minutes.
The ignition is switched off.
After the DAA has displayed the first
message encouraging rest, it does not
display the next one until 60 minutes
have passed.

Driver Monitoring (DM)*
▼ Driver Monitoring (DM)
The DM is a system which detects driver
fatigue and sleepiness, and encourages the
driver to take a rest.
While driving the vehicle at about 5 km/h
(3 mph) or faster, the DM detects changes
in the driver's facial features using the
driver monitoring camera. The system
then estimates the amount of accumulated
fatigue and sleepiness of the driver and
encourages the driver to take a rest using a
warning indication
in the instrument
cluster and a warning sound.
Two types of warning indication patterns
are set for notifying the driver based on
the estimated amount of accumulated
fatigue and sleepiness of the driver.
Fatigue and sleepiness are detected:
Warning pattern (caution)
Much more fatigue and sleepiness are
detected: Warning pattern (warning)

Do not rely completely on the DM and
always drive carefully:
The DM is a system which detects driver
fatigue and sleepiness, and encourages the
driver to take a rest. This is not designed to
prevent driver fatigue and sleepiness, and
over-reliance on the system could lead to
an accident. Drive carefully and turn the
steering wheel appropriately.
In addition, the system may not be able to
detect driver fatigue and sleepiness
correctly depending on the traffic and
driving conditions. The driver must take
sufficient rest in order to drive safely.
Operation conditions
The DM begins monitoring after 20
minutes have passed since the driver
began driving the vehicle and when the
vehicle speed is about 5 km/h (3 mph) or
faster.
NOTE
If the vehicle speed decreases to less
than about 5 km/h (3 mph) while the DM
is monitoring, the DM stops monitoring
for 6 minutes even if the vehicle speed
returns to about 5 km/h (3 mph) or
faster.
If the driver monitoring camera does not
recognize the driver correctly, the DM
may not monitor correctly.
Refer to Driver Monitoring Camera on
page 4-211.
After the DM has displayed the first
message encouraging the driver to take
a rest, it does not display it again during
the following periods.
After displaying the warning pattern
(caution), the next warning pattern
(caution) is not displayed until 45
minutes have passed.
After displaying the warning pattern
(warning), the next warning pattern
(warning) is not displayed until 15
minutes have passed.
After displaying the warning pattern

Front Cross Traffic Alert
(FCTA)
*
▼Front Cross Traffic Alert (FCTA)
The FCTA is designed to assist the driver
in checking both sides of the vehicle when
the vehicle starts to drive at an
intersection.
The FCTA detects vehicles approaching
from the blind spots on the front left and
right sides of the vehicle when the vehicle
starts to drive at a
n intersection, and
notifies the driver of possible danger using
the warning indication on the display and
the warning sound.
1. Your vehicle
WA R N I N G
Always check the surrounding area visually
when the vehicle starts to drive at an
intersection:
Due to certain limitations with the
operation of this system, the warning
indication on the display or the warning
sound might be delayed even though there
is a vehicle approaching from a blind spot.
Always make it your responsibility as a
driver to check the left and right sides.

Mazda Radar Cruise
Control (MRCC) (Manual
Transmission)
*
▼Mazda Radar Cruise Control
(MRCC)
The MRCC system is designed to maintain
headway control
*1 with a vehicle ahead
according to your vehicle's speed using a
front radar sensor to detect the distance to
the vehicle ahead and a preset vehicle
speed without you having to use the
accelerator or brake pedals.
*1 Headway Control: Control of the distance between your vehicle and the
vehicle ahead detected by the MRCC
system.
Additionally, if your vehicle starts closing
in on the vehicle ahead such as if the
vehicle ahead brakes suddenly, a warning
sound and a warning indication in the
display are activated simultaneously to
alert you to maintain a sufficient distance
between the vehicles.
Also refer to the following before using
the MRCC.
Front radar sensor (page 4-204)
WA R N I N G
Do not rely completely on the MRCC:
The MRCC system has detection limitations
depending on the type of vehicle ahead
and its conditions, the weather conditions,
and the road conditions. Additionally, the
system may be unable to decelerate
sufficiently to avoid hitting the vehicle
ahead if the vehicle ahead applies the
brakes suddenly or another vehicle cuts
into the driving lane, which could result in
an accident.
Always drive carefully and verify the
surrounding conditions and depress the
brake pedal or accelerator pedal while
keeping a safe distance from vehicles
ahead or on-coming vehicles.
Do not use the MRCC system in the
following locations. Using the MRCC
system at the following locations may
result in an unexpected accident:
 General roads other than highways
(Driving under these conditions using the
MRCC system is not possible.)
 Roads with sharp curves and where
vehicle traffic is heavy with insufficient
space between vehicles, or roads where
frequent and repetitive acceleration and
deceleration occur (Driving under these
conditions using the MRCC is not
possible).
 When entering and exiting interchanges,
service areas, and parking areas of
highways (If you exit a highway while
headway control is in use, the vehicle
ahead will no longer be tracked and your
vehicle may accelerate to the set speed).
