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 4-162.
 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.
NOTE
During the SBS brake control, the
brake pedal may move rearward or
become stiff. The brakes are operating,
but continue to depress the brake
pedal.
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 vehicle using various indications in
the center display and a warning sound
while the vehicle is being driven at low
speeds or while parking.
To p v i e w
The top view displays an image of
the vehicle from directly above on
the center display by combining the
images taken from the 4 cameras set
on all sides of the vehicle. The top
view displays on the right side of the

rear of the vehicle.
Parking sensor
If there are any obstructions near the
vehicle while the top view/side view
is displayed, an obstruction
detection indication turns on around
the bumper in the center display.
The parking sensors use ultrasonic
sensors to detect obstructions
around the vehicle when the vehicle
is driven at low speeds, such as
during garage or parallel parking,
and notifies the driver of the
approximate distance from the
vehicle to the surrounding
obstruction using sound and an
obstruction detection indication.
Refer to Parking Sensor System on
page 4-231.
Front Cross Traffic Alert (FCTA)
If there is the possibility of a collision
with an approaching vehicle while
the front view/front wide view/side
view is displayed, a warning is
displayed on the center display.
The Front Cross Traffic Alert (FCTA) is
designed to assist the driver in
checking both sides of the vehicle
when the vehicle starts to drive at an
intersection.

(FCTA) on page 4-120.
Rear Cross Traffic Alert (RCTA)
If there is the possibility of a collision
with an approaching vehicle while
the rear view/rear wide view is
displayed, a warning is displayed on
the center display.

uses rear side radar sensor to detect
vehicles approaching from the rear
left and right sides of the vehicle,
and it assists the driver in checking
the rear of the vehicle while reversing
by flashing the Blind Spot Monitoring
(BSM) warning lights and activating
the warning sound.

WARNING
Always confirm the safety of the area
around the vehicle with the mirrors
and directly with your eyes when
driving:
The 360° View Monitor is an auxiliary
device which assists the driver in
checking the safety of the area around
the vehicle.
The shooting range of the cameras and
detection range of the sensors are
limited. For example, the areas in black
at the front and rear of the vehicle
image and the seams where each of
the camera images merge are blind
spots where an obstruction may not be
visible. In addition, the extended
vehicle width lines and projected
vehicle path lines are only to be used
as references, and the images on the
screen may differ from the actual
conditions.
CAUTION
Do not use the 360° View Monitor
under any of the following
conditions.
 Icy or snow-covered roads.
 Tire chains or a temporary spare
tire is installed.
 The front or rear doors are not fully
closed.
 The vehicle is on a road incline.
 Bumpy roads.
 The door mirrors are retracted.
 Do not hit the front/rear camera,
front bumper, liftgate, and door
mirrors forcefully. The camera
position or installation angle may
shift.
 The cameras are waterproof. Do not
disassemble, modify, or remove a
camera.
The camera cover is made of hard
plastic, therefore do not apply oil
film remover, orga nic solvents, wax,
or coating agents. If any such agent
gets on the camera cover, wipe it off
using a soft cloth immediately.
 Do not rub the camera lens
forcefully, or clean it with an abrasive
or hard brush. Otherwise, it could
scratch the camera lens and
negatively affect the images.
 If a camera lens is severely damaged
by flying gravel, have the camera
replaced. For camera replacement,
consult an Authorized Mazda Dealer.
 Consult an Authorized Mazda Dealer
for repair, painting , or replacement

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

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
