▼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 su fficient distance between the
vehicles.
Also refer to the fo llowing before using
the MRCC.
Front radar sensor (page 4-207)
WARNING
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
su fficiently 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 tra ffic is heavy with
insu fficient 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.)
