Lane-keep Assist System(LAS)
*
▼Lane-keep Assist System (LAS)
The LAS provides steering assistance to
help the driver stay within the vehicle
lane if the vehicle might be deviating.
The forward sensing camera (FSC)
detects the white lines (yellow lines) of
the vehicle lane in
which the vehicle is
traveling and if the system determines
that the vehicle may deviate from its
lane, it operates the electric power
steering to assist the driver’s steering
operation. The system also alerts the
driver by displaying an alert on the
multi-information display and the
active driving display. Use the system
when you drive the vehicle on roads
with white (yellow) lines such as
expressways and highways.
1. Forward sensing camera (FSC)
WARNING
Do not rely completely on the LAS:
The LAS is not an automated driving
system. In addition, the system is not
designed to compensate for a
driver’s lack of caution, and
over-reliance on the system could
lead to an accident.
The functions of the LAS have
limitations. Always stay on course
using the steering wheel and drive
with care.
Do not use the LAS under the
following circumstances, otherwise it
may result in an accident.
The vehicle is driven on slippery
roads such as icy or snow-covered
roads, and unpaved roads.
Tires of a
different
specified size
are used, such as a temporary
spare tire.
Tires with
insufficient tread are
used.
The tire pressures are not adjusted
to the
specified pressure.
The vehicle is being used to tow a
camper or boat trailer.
Tire chains are used.
The vehicle is driven on roads with
lane lines other than white (yellow)
lines, such as an expressway.
CAUTION
Heed the following cautions so that
the LAS can operate normally.
Do not modify the vehicle's
suspensions.
Always use tires of the specified type
and size for the front and rear
wheels. Consult an Authorized
Mazda Dealer for tire replacement.

Do not hit the rear side radar sensors
and rear ultrasonic sensors forcefully:
When washing the vehicle, do not
spray highly pressurized water against
the rear side radar sensors and the rear
ultrasonic sensors, or rub them
strongly. In addition, do not hit the rear
bumper forcefully when loading and
unloading cargo. Otherwise, the
system will be unable to detect
obstructions correctly and the SBS may
not operate normally.
CAUTION
In the following cases, turn the SBS
off to prevent a mis-operation.
A trailer is pulled or an accessory
such as a bicycle carrier is installed
to the rear of the vehicle.
The vehicle is driven on rough
roads such as in areas where there
is grass and foliage or off-road.
Refer to Stopping the Smart Brake
Support (SBS) System Operation
on page 4-163.
Always use tires for all wheels that
are of the specified size, and the
same manufacture, brand, and tread
pattern. In addition, do not use tires
with significantly different wear
patterns on the same vehicle. If such
improper tires are used, the SBS may
not operate normally.
Rearward detection function
The rearward detection function is
designed to reduce damage in the
event of a collision with a target object
when reversing.
The rearward detection function
detects obstructions using the rear
ultrasonic sensors. In addition, if there
is the possibility of your vehicle
colliding with a target object at the rear
while you are driving in reverse, you
are notified of possible danger by a
warning sound and a warning
indication on the display.
Furthermore, if the possibility of a
collision increases, brake control is
performed to reduce damage in the
event of a collision.
WARNING
Always check the surrounding area
visually when reversing the vehicle:
The operation of the rearward
detection function has certain
limitations. Therefore, the function
might not operate or it might be
delayed even if there is a target object
at the rear of your vehicle. Always
make it your responsibility as a driver
to check the rear.
Operation conditions
The rearward detection function
operates when all of the following
conditions are met.
The engine is running.The SBS is on.The selector lever is in the R position.The vehicle speed is about 2 km/h
(2 mph) to 8 km/h (4 mph).
There is no problem with the DSC.

assure that the 360°View Monitor
operates normally.
Do not modify the vehicle
suspensions or lower/raise the
vehicle body, or both.
Always use tires of the specified
type and size for the front and rear
wheels. Consult an Authorized
Mazda Dealer for tire replacement.
When the display is cold, images
may leave trails or the screen might
be darker than usual, making it
difficult to check the vehicle
surroundings. Always confirm the
safety at the front and around the
vehicle visually when driving.
The method for parking/stopping
the vehicle using the 360°View
Monitor differs depending on the
road circumstances/conditions and
the vehicle conditions. When and
how much you turn the steering
wheel will
differ depending on the
situation, therefore always check the
vehicle surroundings directly with
your eyes while using the system.
Also, before using the system, always
make sure that the vehicle can be
parked/stopped in the parking/
stopping space.NOTE
If there are water droplets, snow, or
mud on the camera lens, wipe it off
using a soft cloth. If the camera lens
is especially dirty, wash it off with
mild detergent.
If the camera lens is touched or there
is any dirt on it, it could affect the
screen image. Wipe the lens using a
soft cloth.
If the area where the camera is
installed, such as the front bumper,
liftgate or door mirrors, has been
damaged in a vehicle accident, the
camera (position, installation angle)
may have shifted. Always consult an
Authorized Mazda Dealer to have
the vehicle inspected.
If the camera is subjected to
excessive changes in temperature
such as by pouring hot water on the
camera during cold weather, the
360°View Monitor may not operate
normally.
If the vehicle is driven during cold
temperatures and the camera
temperature decreases, the top view
and the side view may become
u n c l ea r. H o we ve r, t h i s d o e s n o t
indicate a problem. If the vehicle is
stopped for a while and the camera
temperature increases, the top view
and the side view will return to the
normal condition.
If the battery voltage is low, the
screen might be temporarily difficult
to view, however, this does not
indicate a problem.
The 360°View Monitor has
limitations. Objects under the
bumper or near both ends of the
bumper cannot be displayed.

change the installation position of
the Forward Sensing Camera (FSC)
or remove it. Otherwise, it could
result in damage or malfunction.
Always use tires for all wheels that
