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, and by presetting the vehicle speed between 30 km/h
(19 mph) and 145 km/h (90 mph), the driver is freed from having to constantly use
the accelerator or brake pedals.
Use the Mazda Radar Cruise Control (MRCC) system on expressways and other
highways which do not require a lot of repeated acceleration and deceleration.
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. 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.

When Driving
For details, refer to Section 4, “Smart City Brake Support [Forward] (SCBS
F)”, “Smart City Brake Support [Reverse] (SCBS R)”.
Smart City Brake Support [Forward] (SCBS F)/Smart City Brake Support [Reverse] (SCBS R)
The Smart City Brake Support [Forward] (SCBS F) is a system designed to reduce
damage in the event of a collision by operating the brake control when the system’s
laser sensor (front) detects a vehicle ahead and the system determines that a
collision is unavoidable. The system operates while the vehicle is moving in the
forward direction in the speed range of 4 to 30 km/h (3 to 18 mph), reducing
damage in the event of a collision.
It may also be possible to avoid a collision if the relative speed between your
vehicle and the vehicle in front of you is less than about 20 km/h (12 mph).
Smart City Brake Support [Forward] (SCBS F)
The Smart City Brake Support [Reverse] (SCBS R) is a system designed to reduce
damage in the event of a collision by operating the brake control when the system’s
ultrasonic sensors detect a vehicle or a wall at the rear of the vehicle and the system
determines that a collision is unavoidable.
The system operates while the vehicle is reversing in the speed range of 2 to 8 km/h
(2 to 4 mph), reducing damage in the event of a collision.
Smart City Brake Support [Reverse] (SCBS R)
Do not rely completely on the system:
• (Smart City Brake Support [Forward] (SCBS F))
If the vehicle height or inclination is changed, the system will not be able to
correctly detect vehicles ahead. This will result in the Smart City Brake
Support (SCBS) system not operating normally or mistakenly operating,
which could cause a serious accident.
WARNING
Do not modify the suspension: • (Smart City Brake Support [Reverse] (SCBS R))The Smart City Brake Support [Forward] (SCBS F) operates in response to
a vehicle (4-wheeled vehicle) in front of your vehicle. Operation in
response to 2-wheeled vehicles or pedestrians is not guaranteed.
The Smart City Brake Support [Reverse] (SCBS R) operates in response to
a vehicle (4-wheeled vehicle) behind of your vehicle or a wall. Operation in
response to 2-wheeled vehicles or pedestrians is not guaranteed.

NOTE
• (Smart City Brake Support [Forward] (SCBS F))
• Trucks with low loading platforms and vehicles with an extremely low or
high profile.
Smart City Brake Support [Forward] (SCBS F)/Smart City Brake Support [Reverse] (SCBS R)
The Smart City Brake Support [Forward] (SCBS F) detects a vehicle ahead
by emitting a near-infrared laser beam and receiving the beam reflected off
the reflector of the vehicle ahead, and then using it for the measurement.
Consequently, the Smart City Brake Support [Forward] (SCBS F) may not
operate under the following conditions:
•
Under bad weather condition, such as rain, fog and snow.
• The window washer is being used or the windscreen wipers are not used
when it's raining.
• The windscreen is dirty.
• The steering wheel is turned completely left or right, or the vehicle is
accelerated rapidly and comes close to the vehicle ahead.
• (Smart City Brake Support [Reverse] (SCBS R))
• The obstruction is small.
The Smart City Brake Support [Reverse] (SCBS R) operates using ultrasonic
sensors (rear) which detect obstructions at the rear by emitting ultrasonic
waves and then receiving the returning waves reflected off the obstructions.
•
The obstruction is thin such as a signpost.
• The obstruction is soft such as a hanging curtain or snow stuck to a vehicle.
• The obstruction is shaped irregularly.
• The surface of the obstruction is not pointed vertically relative to the vehicle.
In the following cases, the ultrasonic sensors (rear) cannot detect obstructions
and the Smart City Brake Support [Reverse] (SCBS R) may not operate.
•
The obstruction is positioned away from the centre of the vehicle.
• Something is stuck on the bumper near an ultrasonic sensor (rear).
• When travelling near objects such as foliage, barriers, vehicles, walls, and
fences along a road.
• When driving off-road in areas where there is grass and forage.
