Drive Selection*
▼Drive Selection
Drive selection is a system to switch
the vehicle's drive mode. When the
sport mode is selected, vehicle's
response against accelerator operation
is enhanced. This provides additional
quick acceleration which may be
needed to safely make maneuvers such
as lane changes, merging onto
freeways, or passing other vehicles.
CAUTION
Do not use the sport mode when
driving on slippery roads such as wet
or snow-covered roads. It may cause
tire slipping.
NOTE
When the sport mode is selected,
driving at higher engine speeds
increases and it may increase fuel
consumption. Mazda recommends
that you cancel the sport mode on
normal driving.
Drive mode cannot be switched in
the following conditions:
ABS/TCS/DSC is operatingCruise control* is operating.The Mazda Radar Cruise Control
with Stop & Go function (MRCC
with Stop & Go function) System
*
is operating.Tra ffi c
Jam Assist (TJA)* is
operating.
Steering wheel is being operated
abruptly
▼ Drive Selection Switch
Press the drive selection switch forward
(SPORT) to select the sport mode.
Pull the drive selection switch back
(OFF) to cancel the sport mode.

NOTE
In the following cases, the drive
selection is canceled.
The ignition is switched OFF.Cruise Control is set.Mazda Radar Cruise Control with
Stop & Go function (MRCC with
Stop & Go function) is set.
Tra ffi c
Jam Assist (TJA) is set.Depending on the driving conditions
when sport mode is selected, the
vehicle may perform shift-down or
slightly accelerate.

the engine is running. If the engine is
off
or if the power steering system is
inoperable, you can still steer, but it
requires more physical effort.
If the steering feels stiffer than usual
during normal driving or the steering
vibrates, consult an Authorized
Mazda Dealer.
The malfunction indication/indicator
light notifies the driver of system
abnormalities and operation
conditions.

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.

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

The ignition is switched ON.The vehicle speed is about 64 km/h
(40 mph) or faster.
The system detects white (yellow)
lane lines.
NOTE
When the system does not detect a
white (yellow) lane line on one side
only, the system does not operate on
the side that is not being detected.
When temporarily canceling the
system
The LDWS goes on standby in the
following cases: The LDWS operation
is automatically restored when the
system's operation conditions are met.

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
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 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.

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 mi nutes 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 4-200.
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 (warning), the next
warning pattern (caution) is not
displayed until 45 minutes have
passed.
▼ Driver Monitoring (DM) Display
When the Driver Monitoring (DM)
detects driver fatigue or sleepiness, it
activates the warning sound and
displays an alert in the instrument
cluster.
