Indicator light
Operation conditions
The parking sensor system can be used when all of the following conditions are met:
The ignition is switched ON.
The parking sensor switch is turned on.
NOTE
The detection indicator and buzzer of the front ultrasonic sensors/front corner ultrasonic
sensors do not operate when the sele ctor lever is in the P position.
The detection indicator and buzzer sound do not activate when the parking brake is
applied.
▼Obstruction Detection Indication
The position of a sensor which has detected an obstruction is indicated. The gauge
illuminates in different areas depending on the distance to an obstruction detected by the
sensor.

NOTE
If an obstruction is detected in a zone for 6 seconds or more, the beep sound is stopped
(except for the close-distance zone). If the same obstruction is detected in another zone, the
corresponding beep sound is heard.
▼ When Warning Indicator/Beep is Activated
The system notifies the driver of an abnormality by activating the beep sound and the
indicator light.
Indicator/Beep
How to check
The indicator light flashes when
the parking sensor switch is
pressed at a vehicle speed of 10
km/h (6 mph) or less. The system may have a malfunction. Have
the vehicle inspected at an Author‐
ized Mazda Dealer as soon as possible.
The beep sound is not heard. The system may have a malfunction. Have
the vehicle inspected at an Author‐
ized Mazda Dealer as soon as possible.
The intermittent sound of the
buzzer is heard 5 times. Remove any foreign material from the
sensor area. If the system does not re‐
cover, have the vehicle inspected at an Authorized Mazda Dealer.
A certain obstruction detection
indicator is continuously dis ‐
played. Refer to Obstruction Detection Indication on page 4-297.

Anything which generates ultrasound is near the vehicle, such as another vehicle's
horn, the engine sound of a motorcycle, the air brake sound of a large-sized vehicle, or
another vehicle's sensors.
The vehicle is driven in heavy rain or in road conditions causing water-splash.
A commercially-available fender pole or an antenna for a radio transmitter is installed
to the vehicle.
The vehicle is moving towards a tall or square curbstone.
An obstruction is too close to the sensor.
Obstructions under the bumper may not be detected. Obstructions that are lower than the
bumper or thin which may have been initially detected may no longer be detected as the
vehicle approaches more closely to the obstruction.
The following types of obstructions may not be detected:
Thin objects such as wire or rope
Things which absorb sonic waves easily such as cotton or snow
Angular shaped objects
Very tall objects, and those which are wide at the top
Small, short objects
Always have the system inspected at an Authorized Mazda Dealer if any shock is applied
to the bumpers, even in a minor accident. If the sensors are deviated, they cannot detect
obstructions.
The system may have a malfunction if the beep does not operate or the indicator light
does not illuminate when the parking sensor switch is turned on. Consult an Authorized
Mazda Dealer.
The system may have a malfunction if the beep sound which indicates a system
malfunction is heard and the i ndicator light flashes. Consult an Authorized Mazda Dealer.
The beeper which indicates a system malf unction may not be heard if the ambient
temperature is extremely cold, or mud, ice, or snow adheres to the sensor area. Remove
any foreign material from the sensor area.
When installing a trailer hitch, consult an Authorized Mazda Dealer.

NOTE
The detection indicator can be switched between display and non-display and the buzzer
volume can be changed.
Refer to the Settings section in the Mazda Connect Owner's Manual.
When the detection indicator is set to “Display”, even with the 360° view monitor not
displayed, if a front ultrasonic sensor or a front corner ultrasonic sensor detects an
obstruction, the 360° view monitor switches automatically to display. When an obstruction
is no longer detected, the display switches
to the display before the obstruction was
detected. However, while the 360° view monito r is displayed, it continues to display no
matter if an obstruction is detected or not.
System problem notification
The indication displays if the system has a malfunction.
Check the reason for the indication displaying on the center display or multi-information
display.
Refer to If a Warning Light Turns On or Flashes on page 7-22.
