2023 MAZDA CX9 power

Roads where frequent and repetitive accelerati on and deceleration occur (Driving under
these conditions using the MRCC with Stop & Go function system is not possible).
 When entering and exiting interchanges, servic e areas, and parking areas of highways (If
you exit a highway while headway control is in use, the vehicle ahead will no longer be
tracked and your vehicle may accelerate to the set speed).
 Slippery roads such as ice or snow-bound roads (Tires could spin causing you to lose vehicle
control, or the stop hold control may not operate.)
 Long, descending slopes (to maintain distan ce between vehicles, the system automatically
and continuously applies the brakes which could result in the loss of brake power.)
 Slopes with a steep gradient (The vehicle ahea d may not be detected correctly, your vehicle
may slide while stopped by the stop hold control, and it may accelerate suddenly after it
starts moving.)
For safety purposes, switch the MRCC with Stop & Go function system off when it is not being
used.
Do not get out of the vehicle while the stop hold control is operating:
Getting out of the vehicle while the stop hold co ntrol is operating is dangerous as the vehicle
may move unexpectedly and result in an accident. Before getting out of the vehicle, switch the
MRCC with Stop & Go function system off, shift the selector lever to the P position, and apply
the parking brake.
CAUTION
If your vehicle is towed or you are towing something, switch the MRCC with Stop & Go
function system off to prevent a mis-operation.
NOTE
The MRCC with Stop & Go function system does not detect the following as physical
objects.
Vehicles approaching in the opposite direction
Pedestrians
Stationary objects (stopped vehicles, obstructions)
If a vehicle ahead is traveling at an extremely low speed, the system may not detect it
correctly.
During headway control travel, do not set the system for detection of two-wheeled
vehicles such as motorcycles and bicycles.
Do not use the MRCC with Stop & Go function system under conditions in which close
proximity warnings are frequently activated.

Lane-keep Assist System (LAS) & Lane Departure
Warning System (LDWS)
*
The LAS & LDWS alerts the driver that the vehicle may be deviating from its lane and it
provides steering assistance to he lp the driver stay within the vehicle lanes.
The Forward Sensing Camera (FSC) detects the white lines (yellow lines) of the vehicle
lane in which the vehicle is tra veling 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 activating a lane departure warning sound,
vibrating the steering wheel, and indicating an alert in the display. Use the system when you
drive the vehicle on roads with white (yellow) lines such as expressways and highways.
Refer to Forward Sensing Camera (FSC) on page 4-239.

Camera (FSC)

Do not rely completely on the LAS & LDWS:
 The LAS & LDWS is not an automatic 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 detection ability of the LAS & LDWS is limited. Always stay on course using the steering
wheel and drive with care.
Do not use the LAS & LDWS in the following cases:
The system may not operate adequately accordin g to the actual driving conditions, resulting
in an accident.

The LAS & LDWS OFF switch indicator
light turns on.
NOTE
In the following cases, the LAS & LDWS
is canceled automatically and the LAS
& LDWS OFF indication is displayed in
the multi-information display. Have your
vehicle inspected at an Authorized
Mazda Dealer.
There is a malfunction in the power
steering.
There is a malfunction in the TCS.
There is a malfunction in the Forward
Sensing Camera (FSC).
When the ignition is switched OFF, the
system status before
it was turned off is
maintained. For example, if the ignition
is switched OFF with the lane-keep
system operable, the system will be
operable when the ignition is switched
ON the next time.
When the LAS & LDWS is turned off, the
vehicle lane line indication in the

Do not use the front bumper to push other vehicles or obstructions such as when pulling
out of a parking space. Otherwise, the radar sensor (front) could be hit and its position
deviated.
 Do not remove, disassemble, or mo dify the radar sensor (front).
 For repairs, replacement or paint work ar ound the radar sensor (front), consult an
Authorized Mazda Dealer.
 Do not modify the suspension. If the suspensi on are modified, the vehicle's posture could
change and the radar sensor (front) may not be able to correctly detect a vehicle ahead or
an obstruction.
NOTE
Under the following conditions, the radar sensor (front) 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 reflect radio waves effectively, such as an
unloaded trailer or an automobile with a loading platform covered by a soft top,
vehicles with a hard plastic tailgate, and round-shaped vehicles.
Vehicles ahead with low vehicle height and thus less area for reflecting radio waves.
Visibility is reduced due to a vehicle ahead casting off water, snow, or sand from its tires
and onto your windshield.
The luggage compartment is loaded with heavy objects or the rear passenger seats are
occupied.
Ice, snow, or soiling is on the front surface of the front emblem.
During inclement weather such as rain, snow, or sand storms.
When driving near facilities or objects emitting strong radio waves.
Under the following conditions, the radar sensor (front) may not be able to detect vehicles
ahead or obstructions.
The beginning and end of a curve.
Roads with continuous curves.
Narrow lane roads due to road construction or lane closures.
The vehicle ahead enters the radar sensor's blind spot.
The vehicle ahead is running abnormally due to accident or vehicle damage.
Roads with repeated up and down slopes
Driving on poor roads or unpaved roads.
The distance between your vehicle and the vehicle ahead is extremely short.
A vehicle suddenly comes close such as by cutting into the lane.
To prevent incorrect operation of the system, use tires of the same specified size,
manufacturer, brand, and tread pattern on all four wheels. In addition, do not use tires
with significantly different wear patterns or tire pressures on the same vehicle (Including
the temporary spare tire).
If the battery power is weak, the system may not operate correctly.
