switched ON and the headlight switch
is in the AUTO and low beam position.
The HBC determines that it is dark
based on the brightness of the
surrounding area. At the same time,
the HBC indicator light (green) in the
instrument cluster illuminates.
NOTE
Operation of the HB
C function can be
disabled.
Refer to the Settings section in the
Mazda Connect Owner's Manual.

WARNING
Always check the surrounding area
visually before making an actual lane
change:
The system is only designed to assist
you in checking for vehicles at your rear
when making a lane change. Due to
certain limitations with the operation
of this system, the BSM warning
indicator light, the warning sound and
the warning screen indicator display
may not activate or they might be
delayed even though a vehicle is in an
adjacent driving lane. Always make it
your responsibility as a driver to check
the rear.
NOTE
The BSM will operate when all of the
following conditions are met:
The ignition is switched ON.The i-ACTIVSENSE warning
indication/warning light in the
instrument cluster is turned off.

about 10 km/h (6.3 mph) even
though the i-ACTIVSENSE warning
indication/warning light is turned
off.
The shift lever (manual
transmission)/selector lever
(automatic transmission) is shifted
to reverse (R) and the vehicle is
reversing.
The turning radius is small (making
a sharp turn, turning at
intersections).
In the following cases, the
i-ACTIVSENSE warning indication/
warning light turns on and operation
of the system is stopped. If the
i-ACTIVSENSE warning indication/
warning light remains illuminated,
have the vehicle inspected at an
Authorized Mazda Dealer as soon as
possible.

snow or ice on the rear bumper
near a rear side radar sensor.
Remove any snow, ice or mud on
the rear bumper.
Driving on snow-covered roads for
long periods.
The temperature near the rear side
radar sensor becomes extremely
hot due to driving for long periods
on slopes during the summer.
The battery voltage has decreased.Under the following conditions, the
rear side radar sensor cannot detect
target objects or it may be difficult to
detect them.

Sign Recognition System (TSR)
The TSR helps prevent the driver from over
looking traffic signs, and provides support
for safer driving by displayi ng traffic signs on the active driving display/instrument
cluster which are recognized by the Forward Sensing Camera (FSC) or recorded in
the navigation system while the vehicle is driven.
The TSR displays the speed limit (includi ng auxiliary signs), do not enter, and
traffic
stop signs.
If the vehicle speed exceeds the speed limit sign indicated in the active driving
display/instrument cluster while the vehicle is driven, the system notifies the driver
using the indication in the active driving display/instrument cluster and a warning
sound.

WARNING
Always check the traffic signs visually while driving.
The TSR helps prevent the driver from overlooking traffic signs and provides support
for safer driving. Dependin g on the weather conditions or problems with traffic
signs, a traffic sign may not be recognized or a traffic sign different from the actual
traffic sign may be displayed. Always make it your responsibility as a driver to check
the actual traffic signs. Otherwise, it could result in an accident.
NOTE
The TSR is not supported in some countrie s or regions. For information concerning
the supported countries or regions, consult an Authorized Mazda Dealer.
The TSR operates only if the navigation system SD card (Mazda genuine) is
inserted in the SD card slot. Consult an Authorized Mazda Dealer for details.
The TSR does not operate if there is a malfunction in the Forward Sensing Camera
(FSC).
Under the following conditions, the TSR may not operate normally.

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:

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 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.
