High Beam ControlSystem (HBC)
*
▼ High Beam Control System (HBC)
The HBC determines the conditions in
front of the vehicle using the Forward
Sensing Camera (FSC) while driving in
darkness to automatically switch the
headlights between high and low
beams.
Refer to Forward Sensing Camera
(FSC) on page 4-190.
While driving the vehicle at a speed of
about 30 km/h (19 mph) or more, the
headlights are switched to high beams
when there are no vehicles ahead or
approaching in the opposite direction.
The system switches the headlights to
low beams when one of the following
occurs:
The system detects a vehicle or the
headlights/lights of a vehicle
approaching in the opposite
direction.
The vehicle is driven on roads lined
with streetlamps or on roads in
well-lit cities and towns.
The vehicle is driven at less than
about 20 km/h (12 mph).
The headlight high-beam indicator
light turns on while the high beams
are on.
1. Forward Sensing Camera (FSC)*1
*1 The recognition distance of the Forward
Sensing Camera (FSC) varies according to
the surrounding conditions.
The warning light turns on when the
system has a malfunction.
Refer to High Beam Control System
(HBC) Warning Indication/Warning
Light (Amber) on page 7-28.
CAUTION
Do not adjust the vehicle height,
modify the headlight units, or
remove the camera, otherwise the
system will not operate normally.
 Do not rely excessively on the HBC
and drive the vehicle while paying
sufficient attention to safety. Switch
the headlights between the high
beams and low beams manually if
necessary.
NOTE
The timing in which the system
switches the headlights changes under
the following conditions. If the system
does not switch the headlights
appropriately, manually switch
between high and low beams
according to the visibility as well as
road and traffic conditions.
When there are sources of light in
the area such as street lamps,
illuminated signboards, and traffic
signals.
When there are reflective objects in
the surrounding area such as
reflective plates and signs.
When visibility is reduced under rain,
snow and foggy conditions.
When driving on roads with sharp
turn or hilly terrain.
When the headlights/rear lamps of
vehicles in front of you or in the
opposite lane are dim or not
illuminated.

Lane Departure WarningSystem (LDWS)
*
▼Lane Departure Warning System
(LDWS)
The LDWS alerts the driver that the
vehicle may be deviating from its lane.
The system detects the white (yellow)
lines on the traffic lane using the
forward sensing camera (FSC) and if it
determines that the vehicle might be
deviating from its lane, it
notifies the
driver by the LDWS.
Refer to Forward Sensing Camera
(FSC) on page 4-190.
Use the LDWS when you drive the
vehicle on roads with white (yellow)
lines.
1. Forward sensing camera (FSC)
WARNING
Do not rely completely on the LDWS:
 The LDWS system is not designed to
compensate for a driver’s lack of
caution and relying too much on the
system could lead to an accident.
The functions of the LDWS have
limitations. Always stay on course
using the steering wheel and drive
with care.
CAUTION
Heed the following cautions so that
the LDWS can operate normally.
Do not modify the vehicle's
suspensions.
 Always use wheels of the
specified
type and size for the front and rear
wheels. Consult an Authorized
Mazda Dealer for tire replacement.
NOTE
The system may not operate normally
under the following conditions.
The white (yellow) lane lines are less
visible because of dirt or paint flaking.
White (yellow) lane lines are less
visible because of bad weather (rain,
fog, or snow).
The vehicle is driven on a temporary
lane or section with a closed lane
resulting from construction where
there might be multiple white
(yellow) lane lines, or they are
interrupted.
The camera picks up an obscure line,
such as a temporary line being used
for construction, or because of
shade, unmelted snow, or groovesfilled with water.
The surrounding brightness suddenly
changes such as when entering or
exiting a tunnel.
Back-light is reflected off the road
surface.
The road surface is wet and shiny
after rain, or there are puddles on
the road.

The width of a lane is excessively
narrow.
The vehicle is driven on roads with
tight curves.
Heavy luggage is loaded in the
luggage compartment or on the rear
seat causing the vehicle to tilt.
The vehicle is driven through a fork in
the road or a junction.
The shade of a guardrail parallel to a
white (yellow) lane line is cast on the
road.
The illumination of the headlights is
weakened because of dirt or the
optical axis is deviated at night.
The road is excessively uneven.The vehicle is shaken after hitting a
road bump.
A vehicle in front of your vehicle is
running near a white (yellow) lane
line making it less visible.
The windshield is dirty or foggy.Strong light is directed from the front
of the vehicle (such as sunlight, or
headlights (high-beam) of
on-coming vehicles).
The vehicle is driven through an
intersection or a roundabout.
▼When the System Operates
When the ignition is switched ON, the
i-ACTIVSENSE status symbol (warning/
risk avoidance support system) (white)
turns on and the system goes on

A BSM warning indicator light may
flash or the warning beep may be
activated several times when making
a turn at a city intersection.
Turn off the BSM while pulling a
trailer or while an accessory such as a
bicycle carrier is installed to the rear
of the vehicle. Otherwise, the radar’s
radio waves will be blocked causing
the system to not operate normally.
In the following cases, it may be
difficult to view the illumination/
flashing of the BSM warning
indicator lights equipped on the
door mirrors.
Snow or ice is adhering to the door
mirrors.
The front door glass is fogged or
covered in snow, frost or dirt.
The rear side radar sensor of the BSM
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.
Refer to Rear Side Radar Sensor on
page 4-197.
The system switches to the Rear
Cross Traffic Alert (RCTA) function
when the shift lever (manual
transmission) or the selector lever
(automatic transmission) is shifted to
the reverse (R) position.
