When Driving
For details, refer to Section 4, “Mazda Radar Cruise Control (MRCC)”.
Mazda Radar Cruise Control (MRCC) system
The Mazda Radar Cruise Control (MRCC) system is designed to maintain
headway control according to the vehicle speed using a radar sensor to detect the
distance to a vehicle ahead, which frees the driver from having to 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.
Use the Mazda Radar Cruise Control (MRCC) system on expressways and other
highways which do not require a lot of repeated acceleration and deceleration. The possible vehicle speed setting ranges are as follows:
Do not rely completely on the Mazda Radar Cruise Control (MRCC) system
and always drive carefully:
The Mazda Radar Cruise Control (MRCC) system has limitations in its ability to
detect vehicles ahead depending on the weather and 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.
Check the safety of the surroundings and pay sufficient attention to the
distance between your vehicle and the vehicles travelling in front and behind.
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, heavy traffic, or roads requiring repeated and
frequent acceleration.
• When entering expressway interchanges and service areas.
• Slippery roads such as ice or snow-bound roads.
• Long descending slopes.
• (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)

The Mazda Radar Cruise Control (MRCC) system may be cancelled during rain,
fog, snow or other inclement weather conditions, or when the front surface of the
radiator grille is dirty.
NOTE
Under the following conditions, operation of the Mazda Radar Cruise Control
(MRCC) system is temporarily cancelled, a cancel indication is indicated in the
display in the instrument cluster, and the MRCC indicator light (green) turns off
simultaneously.
• The CANCEL switch is pressed or the brake pedal is depressed.
The setting status of the Mazda Radar Cruise Control (MRCC) system is indicated
in the display in the instrument cluster.
A system malfunction or operation conditions are indicated by a warning.
• The parking brake is applied.
• The shift lever is in the P, N, or R position (for manual transaxle vehicles,
R position only).
• The vehicle speed decreases to less than 25 km (16mph).
• The DSC, Smart Brake Support (SBS) system, or the Smart City Brake
Support (SCBS) system is operating.

How to Set the Distance Between Vehicles During Headway Control
The distance between vehicles is set to a shorter distance each time the switch is
pressed. The distance between vehicles is set to a longer distance by pressing the
switch. The distance-between-vehicles can be set to 4 levels; Long, medium, short,
and extremely short distance.

Change the Set Vehicle Speed
Changing the set vehicle speed using the SET + / SET - switch
Press and hold the SET + or SET - switch to adjust the set vehicle speed in 10 km/h
(5 mph) increments.
The set vehicle speed can also be adjusted in 1 km/h (1 mph) (European models)
or 5 km/h (5 mph) (Except European models) increments by pressing and
releasing the SET + or SET - switch immediately.
To accelerate using the accelerator pedal
Depress the accelerator pedal and press and release the SET + or SET - switch at
the desired speed. If a switch cannot be operated, the system returns to the set
speed when you release your foot from the accelerator pedal.
Close Proximity Warning
If your vehicle rapidly closes in on the vehicle ahead
because the vehicle applies the brakes suddenly while you
are travelling in headway control, the warning sound
activates and the brake warning is indicated in the display.
Always verify the safety of the surrounding area and
depress the brake pedal while keeping a safe distance from
the vehicle ahead. Additionally, always keep a safe distance
from the vehicles behind you.

Smart Brake Support (SBS)
NOTE
The Smart Brake Support (SBS) system may not operate under the followingy
conditions:
• If there is the possibility of hitting only a part of a vehicle ahead.
Although the objects which activate the system are 4-wheeled vehicles, the radar
sensor could detect the following objects, determine them to be an obstruction,
and operate the Smart Brake Support (SBS) system.
• Objects on the road at the entrance to a curve (including guardrails and
snow banks).
If there is the possibility of a collision with a vehicle or
obstruction ahead, the beep sounds continuously and a
warning is indicated in the display.
Collision Warning
Other details are described in the related text.
Other details are described in the related text.
• The vehicle is driven at the same speed as the vehicle ahead.
• The brake pedal, steering wheel, selector lever, or a direction indicator is
operated.
• A vehicle appears in the opposite lane while cornering or rounding a curve.
• When crossing a narrow bridge, passing through a low gate or tunnel, a
narrow gate, or entering an underground parking area.
• Metal objects, bumps, or protruding objects on the road.
• Two-wheeled vehicles such as motorcycles and bicycles, pedestrians, trees.

When Driving
i-ELOOP System
On conventional vehicles, the kinetic energy that is generated when the vehicle is
decelerated by applying the brakes or during engine braking ends up being discarded
as heat. By utilizing this discarded kinetic energy to generate electricity and use it to
power the vehicle's electrical devices and accessories such as the A/C and audio, fuel
consumption can be reduced. Mazda's system for generating electricity from this
kinetic energy is called the Deceleration Energy Generation System (i-ELOOP).
For details, refer to Section 4, “i-ELOOP”.

When Driving
X Mark Full Low
Diesel Particulate Filter
The diesel particulate filter collects and removes most of the particulate matter
(PM) in the exhaust gas of a diesel engine.
Inspect the engine oil level periodically (before getting in the vehicle). When
inspecting the engine oil, if the engine oil level is close to or exceeds the “X” mark
on the dipstick, replace the engine oil.
Whenever the engine oil is replaced, the vehicles engine control unit needs to be
reset as soon as possible. Otherwise the wrench indicator light or engine oil
warning light may turn on.
For details, refer to Section 4, “i-ELOOP”, “Tyre Pressure Monitoring System”,
“Diesel Particulate Filter” or Section 6, “Owner Maintenance”.
The Tyre Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) monitors the air pressure of all
four wheels. If the air pressure of one or more tyres is too low, the system warns
the driver by indicating the tyre pressure monitoring system warning light in the
instrument cluster and operating a beep sound.
In the following cases, system initialization must be performed so that the system
operates normally.
• A tyre pressure is adjusted.
• Tyre rotation is performed.
• A tyre or wheel is replaced.
• The battery is replaced or completely drained.
• The tyre pressure monitoring system warning
light is illuminated.
Tyre Pressure Monitoring System
To reset the engine control unit, refer to the vehicle engine control unit reset
procedure or consult an expert repairer, we recommend an Authorised Mazda
Repairer.
i-ELOOP Charging Display
If the vehicle is driven while “i-ELOOP charging”
is displayed, a beep sound is heard. Make sure the
message is no longer displayed before driving.
