Operation of i-stop Function
The i-stop function automatically stops the engine when the vehicle is stopped at a
traffic light or stuck in traffic, and then restarts the engine automatically to resume
driving. The system provides improved fuel economy, reduced exhaust gas
emissions, and eliminates idling noise while the engine is stopped.
NOTE
•When engine idling is stopped.
• The i-stop indicator light (green) turns on under the following conditions:
Engine idling stop conditions are met while the v
ehicle is being driven. •

For details, refer to Section 4, “Automatic Transaxle” or “Drive selection”.
Drive Selection
Drive Selection Switch Drive selection is a system to switch the vehicle's drive mode. When the sport mode
is selected, vehicle's response against accelerator operation is enhanced. This
provides additional quick acceleration which may be needed to safely make
manoeuvres such as lane changes, merging onto freeways, or passing other vehicles.
Press the drive selection switch forward “ ( ) ” to select the sport mode. Pull
the drive selection switch back “ ( ) ” to cancel the sport mode.

When Driving
For details, refer to Section 4, “i-ACTIVSENSE”.
i-ACTIVSENSE
i-ACTIVSENSE is a collective term covering a series of advanced safety and driver
support systems which make use of a Forward Sensing Camera (FSC) and radar sensors.
These systems consist of active safety and pre-crash safety systems.
Driver awareness support systems
Adaptive LED Headlights (ALH)
Lane Departure Warning System (LDWS)
Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM)
Distance Recognition Support System (DRSS)
These systems are designed to assist the driver in safer driving by reducing the load on
the driver and helping to avert collisions or reduce their severity. However, because each
system has its limitations, always drive carefully and do not rely solely on the systems.
Active Safety Technology
Active Safety Technology supports safer driving by helping the driver to recognise
potential hazards and avert accidents.
Nighttime visibility
Left/right side and rear side detection
Inter-vehicle distance recognition
Rear Cross Traffic Alert (RCTA)
Rear obstruction detection when leaving a parking space

When Driving
For details, refer to Section 4, “i-ACTIVSENSE”.
Traffic Sign Recognition System (TSR)
If the vehicle speed exceeds the speed limit sign displayed on the active driving
display, the warning sound is activated and the area around the speed limit sign
displayed on the active driving display flashes 3 times in amber, and if the vehicle
speed continues to exceed the displayed speed limit sign, the indication stops
flashing and remains on. Check the surrounding conditions and adjust the vehicle
speed to the legal speed using the appropriate operation such as depressing the
brake pedal.
Excessive Speed Warning
NOTE
The Traffic Sign Recognition System (TSR) does not operate if there is a
malfunction in the Forward Sensing Camera (FSC).

Mazda Radar Cruise Control (MRCC) system
The Mazda Radar Cruise Control (MRCC) system is designed to maintain headway control*1
according to the vehicle speed using a radar sensor (front) to detect the distance to a vehicle
ahead, which frees the driver from having to constantly use the accelerator or brake pedals.
Additionally, if your vehicle starts closing in on the vehicle ahead because, for example, the
vehicle ahead brakes suddenly, a warning sound and a warning indication in the display are
activated simultaneously to alert you to maintain a sufficient distance between the vehicles.
The possible vehicle speed setting ranges are as follows:
For details, refer to Section 4, “i-ACTIVSENSE”.
Use the Mazda Radar Cruise Control (MRCC) system on expressways and other
highways which do not require a lot of repeated acceleration and deceleration.
•(European models)
About 30 km/h (19 mph) to 200 km/h (124 mph)
•(Except European models)
About 30 km/h (19 mph) to 145 km/h (90 mph)
Do not rely completely on the Mazda Radar Cruise Control (MRCC) system
and always drive carefully:
The Mazda Radar Cruise Control (MRCC) system is designed to reduce load on the
driver, and although it maintains a constant vehicle speed, or specifically, it
maintains a constant distance between your vehicle and the detected vehicle ahead
according to the vehicle speed, the system has detection limitations depending on the
type of vehicle ahead and its conditions, the weather conditions, and the road
conditions. Additionally, the system may be unable to decelerate sufficiently to avoid
hitting the vehicle ahead if the vehicle ahead applies the brakes suddenly or another
vehicle cuts into the driving lane, which could result in an accident. Always verify
the safety of the surrounding area and depress the brake pedal or accelerator pedal
while keeping a safer distance from vehicles ahead or on-coming vehicles.
WARNING
Do not use the Mazda Radar Cruise Control (MRCC) system in the
following locations. Otherwise, it could lead to an accident:
•Roads with sharp curves and where vehicle traffic is heavy and there is
insufficient space between vehicles. Roads where frequent and repetitive
acceleration and deceleration occur.
•When entering and exiting interchanges, service areas, and parking areas of highways.
•Slippery roads such as ice or snow-bound roads.
•Long descending slopes.
*1 Headway Control: Control of the distance between your vehicle and the vehicle ahead
detected by the Mazda Radar Cruise Control (MRCC) system.
