2022 MAZDA MODEL MX-30 EV wheel

Dynamic Stability Control(DSC)
▼Dynamic Stability Control (DSC)
The Dynamic Stability Control (DSC)
automatically controls braking and
motor torque in conjunction with
systems such as the ABS and TCS to
help control side slip when driving on
slippery surfaces, or during sudden or
evasive steering, which enhances
vehicle stability.

Refer to ABS (page 4-63) and TCS
(page 4-64).

DSC operation is possible at speeds
greater than 20 km/h (12 mph).

The warning light turns on when the
system has a malfunction.
Refer to TCS/DSC Indication/
Indicator Light (Turns on) on page
7-27.
WARNING
Do not rely on the Dynamic Stability
Control as a substitute for safe
driving:
The Dynamic Stability Control (DSC)
cannot compensate for unsafe and
reckless driving , excessive speed,
tailgating (following another vehicle
too closely), and hydroplaning
(reduced tire friction and road contact
because of water on the road surface).
You can still have an accident.
CAUTION

The DSC may not operate correctly
unless the following are observed:
 Use tires of the correct size
speci fied for your Mazda on all 4
wheels.
 Use tires of the same
manufacturer, brand and tread
pattern on all 4 wheels.
 Do not mix worn tires.
 The DSC may not operate correctly
when tire chains are used or a
temporary spare tire is installed
because the tire diameter changes.
NOTE
If there is a problem with the DSC, the
Hill Launch Assi st (HLA) may not
operate.
Refer to Hill Launch Assist (HLA) on
page 4-61.
▼ TCS/DSC Indicator Light
When the power switch is switched
ON, the TCS/DSC indicator light turns
on and then turns
off after a few
seconds. If the TCS or DSC is
operating , the indicator light flashes.

If the light stays on, the TCS, DSC or
the brake assist system may have a
malfunction and they may not operate
correctly. Take your vehicle to an
Authorized Mazda Dealer.

Power Steering
▼Power Steering
Power steering is operable when the
power switch is switched ON (EV
system on). The steering wheel can
still be operated even when the
power switch is switched to a
position other than ON (EV system
on), however, the operation may feel
heavy compared to normal.
If the steering feels sti
ffer than usual
during normal driving or the steering
vibrates, consult an Authorized
Mazda Dealer.
The malfunction indication/indicator
light notifies the driver of system
abnormalities and operation
conditions.

When performing repairs around the
rearview mirror, consult an
Authorized Mazda Dealer.
 Always use tires for all wheels that
are of the speci fied size, and the
same manufacturer, brand, and tread
pattern. In addition, do not use tires
with signi ficantly di fferent wear
patterns on the same vehicle as the
system may not operate normally.
NOTE
If the Forward Sensing Camera (FSC)
cannot operate normally due to rain,
backlight, or fog, the system
functions related to the Forward
Sensing Camera (FSC) are
temporarily stopped and the
following warning lights turn on.
However, this does not indicate a
malfunction.

Detection of pedestrians
The Forward Sensing Camera (FSC)
detects pedestrians when all of the
following conditions are met.
The height of a pedestrian is about 1
to 2 m (3 to 6.5 ft).
The outline of a pedestrian is
recognized such as the head, both
shoulders, or the feet.
The Forward Sensing Camera (FSC)
may not be able to detect pedestrians
when any of the following conditions is
met.
There are multiple pedestrians.A pedestrian is close to a separate
object.
A pedestrian is crouching, lying , or
slouching.
A pedestrian suddenly jumps into
the road.
A pedestrian is holding something
(such as an open umbrella or large
baggage).

The front radar sensor includes a
function for detecting soiling of the
radar sensor's front surface and
informing the driver, however,
depending on the conditions, it may
require time to detect or it may not
detect plastic shopping bags, ice or
snow. If this occurs, the system may
not operate correctly, therefore
always keep the front radar sensor
clean.
 If “Safety and Driver Support Systems
Temporarily Disabled. Front Radar
Obscured. Drive Safely” is displayed
on the multi-information display of
the instrument cluster, clean the area
around the front radar sensor.
 Do not install a grille guard.
 If the front part of the vehicle has
been damaged in a vehicle accident,
the position of the front radar sensor
may have moved. Stop the system
immediately and always have the
vehicle inspected at an Authorized
Mazda Dealer.
 Do not use the front bumper to push
other vehicles or obstructions such
as when pulling out of a parking
space. Otherwise, the front radar
sensor could be hit and its position
deviated.
 For repairs, replacement or paint
work around the front radar sensor,
consult an Authorized Mazda Dealer.
 Always use tires for all wheels that
are of the speci fied size, and the
same manufacturer, brand, and tread
pattern. In addition, do not use tires
with signi ficantly di fferent wear
patterns on the same vehicle as the
system may not operate normally.
NOTE
If the lead-acid battery power is
weak, the system may not operate
correctly.
When driving on roads with little tra ffic and few vehicles ahead or
obstructions for the front radar
sensor to detect, “Safety and Driver
Support Systems Temporarily
Disabled. Front Radar Obscured.
Drive Safely” may be temporarily
displayed, however, this does not
indicate a problem.
The radar sensors are regulated by
the relevant radio wave laws of the
country in which the vehicle is
driven. If the vehicle is driven
abroad, authorization from the
country in which the vehicle is driven
may be required.
When the vehicle is driven on roads in
which there is an elevated road on one
side, the front radar sensor function
may be restricted temporarily.
When any of the following conditions
is met, the front radar sensor may not
be able to detect vehicles ahead or
obstructions correctly and each system
may not operate normally.
The rear surface of a vehicle ahead
does not re flect radio waves
e ff ectively (such as an unloaded
trailer, a vehicle with a loading
platform covered by a soft top, a
vehicle with a hard plastic liftgate,
and a round-shaped vehicle).
A vehicle ahead has limited areas
that can re flect radio waves (such as
a low pro file vehicle).
Under bad weather conditions (rain,
fog, and snow).
Front visibility is reduced (due to a
vehicle ahead casting o ff water,
snow, or sand).
Foreign matter (ice, snow, or dirt) is
on the surface of the front radar
sensor cover.

Lane Departure Warning
System (LDWS)
*
▼Lane Departure Warning System
(LDWS)
The LDWS noti
fies the driver that the
vehicle might be deviating from its
lane.
The LDWS detects white (yellow) lines
using the Forward Sensing Camera
(FSC). If your vehicle may be deviating
from its lane, the lane departure
warning noti fies the driver.

Use the LDWS when you drive the
vehicle on roads with white (yellow)
lines.
WARNING
Do not rely completely on the LDWS
and always drive carefully:
 The LDWS is not designed to
compensate for a driver’s lack of
caution and relying too much on the
system could lead to an accident.
 The functions of the LDWS have
limitations. Always stay on course
using the steering wheel.

A condition under which the
Forward Sensing Camera (FSC)
cannot detect a target object is met.
Refer to Forward Sensing Camera
(FSC) on page 4-71.
The visibility of white (yellow) lines is
poor (due to paint flaking or dirt, or
being hidden by vehicles ahead).
There are multiple white (yellow)
lines or they are interrupted.
A misleading line on the road is
picked up (such as temporary line for
construction, shadow, lingering
snow, or grooves filled with water).
The shade of a guardrail parallel to a
white (yellow) line is on the road.
The width of a lane is excessively
narrow.
The vehicle is shaken after hitting a
road bump.
The vehicle is driven on a section
with a closed lane or temporary lane
due to construction.
The vehicle is driven on a forked
road or junction.
The vehicle is driven through an
intersection or a roundabout.
▼When the System Operates
When the power switch is switched
