ADAPTIVE FRONT-LIGHTING SYSTEM (AFS) (if equipped)
The adaptive front-lighting system (AFS) automatically turns the
headlight beam to the right or left in conjunction with the direction of
the steering wheel.
The AFS improves the direction of headlight illumination while cornering, and
only works when the vehicle is moving.
Push AFS OFF to turn system off or on. When off,
AFS OFF illuminates in the instrument panel.

FORWARD OBSTRUCTION WARNING (FOW)
The Forward Obstruction Warning (FOW) system alerts the
driver of a possible collision using an indicator in the active
driving display and instrument cluster along with a warning
sound. The system operates when driving at 10 mph (15 km/h)
or faster and the system’s radar sensor determines that your
vehicle may hit a vehicle or obstruction ahead.
CAUTION: Do not rely completely on the MRCC system and always
drive carefully obeying the speed limit.
NOTE: The MRCC sometimes will brake your vehicle when passing a semi truck (tractor
trailer). This is normal. Simply press the accelerator pedal to override the system.
NOTE: FOW can be turned off using the DSC OFF button.
WARNING: FOW is only a supplementary system designed to reduce damage in
the event of a collision. The FOW has limitations and does not detect all objects. Do not
rely solely on the FOW. Relying solely on the FOW may cause an unexpected accident
resulting in death or serious injury. Always keep your eyes on the road.

LDWS
LANE DEPARTURE WARNING SYSTEM (LDWS) (if equipped)
The Lane Departure Warning System (LDWS) recognizes painted lane
lines on a road using the forward sensing camera (FSC) installed to the
windshield. If the vehicle deviates from its lane at speeds of 37 mph
or higher, the system alerts the driver of the lane departure using the
following indicator lights and warning sound.
NOTE: Any driver input (e.g., turn signal,
steering or acceleration) will cancel warning.

The painted lane lines
on the road are not
recognized or the vehicle

WARNING: LDWS is only a
supplementary system for the prevention
of a lane departure, however the LDWS
functions have limitations. Do not rely
solely on the LDWS. Relying solely on
the LDWS may cause an unexpected
accident resulting in death or serious
injury. Always make lane corrections
using the steering wheel and drive safely.
Use the LDWS switch to
turn system ON or OFF

Tireswww.MazdaUSA.com
TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM (TPMS)
Your vehicle is equipped with a Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)
that detects low tire pressure in one or more tires. Under the following
cases, the TPMS must be “initialized” so the system can operate normally.
• The tire pressure is adjusted (up or down) in one or more tires.
•
A ti

re rotation is performed.
•
An

y tire or wheel is replaced.
•
The

vehicle’s battery is disconnected, replaced or completely dead.
Initialization Process (TPMS Warning Light is Illuminated):
1 Park the vehicle in a safe place and firmly apply the parking brake.
2 Le
t the tires cool, then adjust the tire pressure to the specified
pressure (See tire label located on the driver’s side B-pillar or edge
of driver’s door frame for
specification) on all four
(4) tires.
3 Sw

itch the ignition ON, but
leave the vehicle parked.
4 Pu

sh and hold the TPMS
“Set Switch” (left side of dash)
until the TPMS warning light

in the instrument cluster flashes
twice and a beep sound is
heard once.
PERSONALIZE YOUR MAZDA6
WITH GENUINE MAZDA ACCESSORIES
Go to www.MyMazda.com, then select “Accessories” below the MyMazda
Home header for a complete listing of available accessories for your Maz\
da6.
NOTE: See Page 7 for TPMS switch location.
CAUTION: If the TPMS “Set Switch” is pushed without adjusting the tire
pressure, the system cannot detect the normal tire pressure. The TPMS
warning light may not illuminate, even if the tire pressure is low, or it may
illuminate if the tire pressure is normal.

Transmission
MANUAL SHIFT MODE (if equipped)
The Manual Shift Mode gives you the feel of driving a manual transmission
by allowing you to manually shift to control engine rpm and torque when
more control is desired.
To Use Steering Shift Switches:

- DOWN Shift Switch+ UP Shift Switch
NOTE: Steering Shift Switches
can be used in “D” or “M”.
ACTIVE ADAPTIVE SHIFT (AAS) CONTROL
A AS will automatically adjust how and when the transmission shifts gears
based on road conditions and your driving style.
The transmission may stay in a lower gear longer than usual when going up or
down hills or driving around corners. This feature gives you better control and
a more connected driving experience.
(if equipped)
SPORT MODE (if equipped)
SPORT mode allows greater response and
control when driving on mountain roads
as well as on freeways by adjusting the
transmission shift schedule.
Fuel consumption increases slightly because
higher engine speeds (i.e., lower gear position) are used in
Sports mode compared to normal mode. Use Sports mode
and normal mode depending on the road conditions and
situation. The SPORT mode indicator light in the instrument
cluster is illuminated while in SPORT mode and is not illuminated
while in normal mode.

Blind Spot Monitoring System
BLIND SPOT MONITORING (BSM) (if equipped)
The Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM) system is designed to assist the driver
by monitoring blind spots on both sides of the vehicle to the rear in
certain situations such as when changing lanes on roads and freeways or
reversing the vehicle from a parking garage.
The Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM) System consists of the Blind Spot Moni\
toring
(BSM) and Rear Cross Traffic Alert (RCTA).
Turning BSM System Off
Turning the BSM system off will turn off both the light and sound
indicators. To manually turn the BSM system off, push the BSM
OFF switch on the dash. The BSM OFF indicator will illuminate
in the instrument cluster when the BSM system is off. The BSM
system will automatically turn on the next time the vehicle is started.
•
If y

our vehicle speed is 6.7 mph (10.8 km/h) or more, the BSM will warn
you of vehicles in the detection area by illuminating the BSM warning
lights located on the left and right door mirrors.
•
If y

ou operate a turn signal in the direction of an illuminated BSM warning
light, the system will also warn you with a beep and warning light flash.
•
BS

M sensors are located under the left and right rear bumper areas.
The BSM system may not operate properly if the rear bumper gets too
dirty, so keep the rear bumper area clean.
Your Vehicle
Detection Areas
Please refer to
your Owner’s
Manual for
complete details.
NOTE: Do not rely completely on the BSM system and be sure to look
over your shoulder before changing lanes:
•
Th

e BSM can assist the driver in confirming the safety of the surroundings,
but is not a complete substitute.
•
The

driver is responsible for ensuring safe lane changes and other maneuvers.
•
Al

ways pay attention to the direction in which the vehicle is traveling and the
vehicle’s surroundings.
•
Th

e BSM does not operate when the vehicle speed is lower than about 6.7
mph (10.8 km/h).
