Jam Assist (TJA)
The TJA is a system which consists of a
headway control function and a
steering assist function for reducing
driver fatigue during traffic jams when
driving on expressways or highways.
This system performs headway control
to maintain a constant distance
between your vehicle and a vehicle
ahead at a preset vehicle speed
without you having to use the
accelerator or brake pedal. Even
further, with the steering assist
function, when vehicle lane lines are
detected, the function assists the driver
in keeping the vehicle within the lane
lines. If lane lines are not detected, the
function provides the driver driving
assistance in keeping the vehicle along
the motion path with the vehicle
ahead.
WARNING
Do not rely completely on
TJ A :
 The TJA is not an automated driving
system. In addition, the functions
have limitations. Do not rely
completely on the system and always
stay on course using the steering
wheel.
 Set a vehicle speed within the speed
limit according to the road
conditions and the weather
conditions.
The TJA may not be able to detect a
vehicle ahead depending on the type
of vehicle ahead and its conditions,
the weather conditions, and the road
conditions. Additionally, the system
might be unable to decelerate
sufficiently if a vehicle ahead applies
the brakes suddenly, another vehicle
cuts into the driving lane, or the difference in vehicle speed between
your vehicle and the vehicle ahead is
larger, which could result in an
accident. Check the surrounding
conditions and always drive carefully
while keeping a safe distance from
vehicles ahead and on-coming
vehicles.

For the purposes of safety, switch the
TJA off when it is not being used.
Leaving the TJA turned on when it is
not in use is dangerous as it could
operate unexpectedly, resulting in an
accident.

Do not use the TJA under the
following conditions. Otherwise, it
may result in an accident.
 General roads other than
expressways or highways (Driving
under these conditions using the TJA
is not possible.)
 Roads with sharp curves and where
vehicle traffic is heavy with
insufficient space between vehicles,
or roads where frequent and
repetitive acceleration and
deceleration occur (Driving under
these conditions using the TJA is not
possible).

Steering assist function
When lane lines are detected, the
function assists the driver in keeping

keeping the vehicle along the motion
path with the vehicle ahead.
NOTE
Steering assist limit warning

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.
