Distance & Speed Alert(DSA)
*
▼Distance & Speed Alert (DSA)
The DSA is a system which provides
advice for maintaining the appropriate
distance between vehicles and
notifies
the driver of the recommended, safe
distance to maintain with a vehicle
ahead. The system measures the
distance between your vehicle and a
vehicle ahead while the vehicle speed
is about 30 km/h (19 mph) or faster. If
the distance between your vehicle and
a vehicle ahead is close, the system
alerts the driver of a possible collision
using an indication on the display.
WARNING
Do not rely completely on the DSA:
The ability of the system to detect a
vehicle ahead is limited depending on
the type of vehicle ahead, weather
conditions, or traffic conditions. In
addition, the system is not for
maintaining the distance between your
vehicle and a vehicle ahead. If you
neglect to operate the accelerator and
brake pedals correctly, it could lead to
an accident. Always check the safety of
the surrounding area and depress the
brake pedal or accelerator pedal while
keeping a safe distance from vehicles
ahead or on-coming vehicles.
Operation conditions
The DSA operates when the following
conditions are all met.
The ignition is switched ON.The DSA is turned on.The selector lever is in a position
other than R.
The vehicle speed is about 30 km/h
(19 mph) or faster.
i-ACTIVSENSE status symbol
(warning/risk av oidance support
system) (green) is displayed.
NOTE
The objects which activate the
system are four-wheeled vehicles.
The DSA may also operate in the
presence of motorcycles and
bicycles.
The DSA may not operate normally
when the speed of a vehicle ahead is
too slow.
The system does not operate with
the following objects.
Vehicles approaching in the
opposite direction.
Stationary objects (stopped
vehicles, obstructions)
The DSA can be set to inoperable.
(If only the DSA is turned off)
Refer to the Settings section in the
Mazda Connect Owner's Manual.
(If the DSA is turned off by

Driver Monitoring (DM)*
▼ Driver Monitoring (DM)
The DM is a system which detects
driver fatigue and sleepiness, and
encourages the driver to take a rest.
While driving the vehicle at about 5
km/h (3 mph) or faster, the DM
detects changes in the driver's facial
features using the driver monitoring
camera. The system then estimates the
amount of accumulated fatigue and
sleepiness of the driver and encourages
the driver to take a rest using a warning
indication in the instrument cluster and
a warning sound.
Two types of warning indication
patterns are set for notifying the driver
based on the estimated amount of
accumulated fatigue and sleepiness of
the driver.
Fatigue and sleepiness are detected:
Warning pattern (caut ion)
Much more fatigue and sleepiness
are detected: Warning pattern
