2023 MAZDA MODEL CX-50 Display

360° View Monitor*
▼360° View Monitor
The 360°View Monitor consists of the
following functions
which assist the
driver in checking the area surrounding
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
screen when the front view or rear
view screen is being displayed. The
top view assists the driver in
checking the area surrounding the
vehicle when the vehicle is moving
forward or in reverse.
Front view/front wide view
The image from the front of the
vehicle is displayed on the center
display.
The view from the front assists the
driver in checking the front of the
vehicle by displaying guide lines on
the displayed image taken from the
front of the vehicle.
Side view
The images taken from the front left
and right sides of the vehicle are
displayed on the center display.
The side view assists the driver in
checking the front sides of the
vehicle by displaying guide lines on
the displayed image taken from the
front left and right sides of the
vehicle.
Rear view/rear wide view
The image from the rear of the
vehicle is displayed on the center
display.
The image from the rear assists the
driver in checking the rear of the
vehicle by displaying guide lines on
the displayed image taken from 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 4-215.
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.
The Rear Cross Traffic Alert (RCTA)
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.
Refer to Rear Cross Traffic Alert
(RCTA) on page 4-113.
