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 Front Lighting System (AFS)
• High-Beam Control system (HBC)
• Adaptive LED Headlights
• Lane Departure Warning System (LDWS)
• Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM)
• Distance Recognition Support System (DRSS)
• Driver attention alert
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.

Pre-Crash Safety Technology
Pre-crash safety technology is designed to assist the driver in averting collisions or
reduce their severity in situations where they cannot be avoided.

• Smart City Brake Support [Reverse] (SCBS R)
• Smart Brake Support (SBS)

14For 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, 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.

Mazda Radar Cruise Control (MRCC) Display IndicationSetting the Mazda Radar Cruise Control (MRCC)
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.
• A system malfunction is detected.
Other details are described in the related text.

How to Set the Speed When the ON switch is pressed, the vehicle speed and the distance between
vehicles while in headway control can be set. The Mazda Radar Cruise Control
(MRCC) indication is displayed in the display of the instrument cluster.
1. Adjust the vehicle speed to the desired setting using the accelerator pedal.
2. Headway control begins when the SET + or SET - switch is pressed. The set
speed and the inter-vehicle distance display filled with white lines are displayed.

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 safer
distance from the vehicles behind you.
