Drive Selection
Drive selection is a system to switch the vehicle's drive mode. When the sport mode is
selected, the 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 sport mode is selected, driving at higher engine speeds may increase fuel
consumption. Mazda recommends that you cancel sport mode for normal driving.
Drive mode cannot be switched in the following conditions:
ABS/TCS/DSC is operating
The Mazda Radar Cruise Control with St op & Go function (MRCC with Stop & Go
function) System/cruise control is operating.
Steering wheel is being operated abruptly
▼ Drive Selection Switch
Press the drive selection switch forward

NOTE
The indicator light flashes a few times to
indicate that the mode cannot be switched
to SPORT mode even if the drive select
switch is pressed under the following
conditions:
ABS/TCS/DSC is operating
The Mazda Radar Cruise Control with
Stop & Go function (MRCC with Stop &
Go function) System/cruise control is
operating.
The vehicle is making a turn or driving
on a curved road.

▼ Camera and Sensors
Forward Sensing Camera (FSC)
The Forward Sensing Camera (FSC) detects la
ne indications and recognizes headlights,
taillights and city lights during nighttime driv ing. In addition, it also detects the vehicle
ahead, pedestrians, or obstructions. The following systems also use the Forward Sensing
Camera (FSC).
High Beam Control System (HBC)
Driver Attention Alert (DAA)
Lane-keep Assist System (LAS) & Lane Departure Warning System (LDWS)
Traffic Sign Recognition System (TSR)

Refer to Forward Sensing Camera (FSC) on page 4-235.
Radar sensor (front)
The radar sensor (front) functions by detecting the radio waves reflected off a vehicle ahead
sent from the radar sensor. The following systems also use the radar sensor (front).
Mazda Radar Cruise Control with Stop & Go function (MRCC with Stop & Go function)
Distance Recognition Support System (DRSS)
Smart Brake Support (SBS)
The radar sensor (front) is mounted behind the radiator grille.
Refer to Radar Sensor (Front) on page 4-240.
Radar sensors (rear)
The radar sensors (rear) function by detecting the radio waves reflected off a vehicle
approaching from the rear or an obstruction sent from the radar sensors. The following
systems also use the radar sensors (rear).
Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM)
Rear Cross Traffic Alert (RCTA)
The radar sensors (rear) are installed inside th e rear bumper, one each on the left and right
sides.
Refer to Radar Sensors (Rear) on page 4-243.
Ultrasonic sensors (rear)
The ultrasonic sensors (rear) function by de tecting the ultrasonic waves reflected off
obstructions at the rear sent from the ultrason ic sensors. The following systems also use the
ultrasonic sensors (rear).
Smart City Brake Support [Reverse] (SCBS R)
The ultrasonic sensors (rear) are mounted in the rear bumper.
Refer to Ultrasonic Sensors (Rear) on page 4-245.
Front camera/side cameras/rear view camera
The front camera, side cameras, and rear camera shoot images of the area surrounding the
vehicle. The 360° View Monitor uses each camera.

Mazda Radar Cruise Control with Stop & Go function(MRCC with Stop & Go function)
*
The MRCC with Stop & Go function system is designed to maintain headway control*1
with a vehicle ahead according to your vehicle's speed using a radar sensor (front) 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 Mazda Radar Cruise Control (MRCC) system.
Additionally, if your vehicle starts closing in on the vehicle ahead such as if the vehicle
ahead brakes suddenly, a warning sound an d a warning indication in the display are
activated simultaneously to alert you to maintain a sufficient distance between the vehicles.
If the vehicle ahead stops while you are follo wing behind it, your vehicle will stop and be
held stopped automatically (stop hold control), and headway control will resume when you
resume driving the vehicle such as by pressing the RES switch.
Also refer to the following before usin g the MRCC with Stop & Go function.
AUTOHOLD (page 4-96)
Forward Sensing Camera (FSC) (page 4-235)
Radar sensor (front) (page 4-240)

CX-9_8JK1-EA-20G_Edition6_old 2021-12-8 9:30:44

During headway control travel, the system accelerates and decelerates your vehicle in
conjunction with the speed of the vehicle ahead. However, if it is necessary to accelerate
for a lane change or if the vehicle ahead brakes suddenly causing you to close in on the
vehicle rapidly, accelerate using the accelerator pedal or decelerate using the brake
pedal depending on the conditions.
While the MRCC with Stop & Go function system is in use, it does not cancel even if the
selector lever is operated and any intended engine braking does not occur. If deceleration
is required, lower the set speed or depress the brake pedal.
The sound of the automatic brakes operating may be heard, however, it does not indicate
a problem.
The brake lights turn on while the MRCC with Stop & Go function automatic braking is
operating.
