MAZDA RADAR CRUISE CONTROL (MRCC)
WITH STOP & GO FUNCTION
The MRCC with Stop & Go function maintains vehicle speed and
following distance using a radar sensor to detect a vehicle ahead.
The driver simply presets the vehicle speed between 0 mph and 90 mph and the system will maintain a safe following distance
without having to turn the cruise control off or use the accelerator
or brake pedals. If the vehicle ahead stops while you are following behind it, your vehicle will stop automatically.
The system operates in two modes: CONSTANT SPEED MODE: When no
vehicle is detected ahead, the driver’s set
speed is maintained.
HEADWAY CONTROL MODE: When a vehicle is detected ahead, a distance between your
vehicle and the vehicle ahead is maintained.
Setting the MRCC with Stop & Go function: When the Mode switch is pushed, the vehicle speed and the distance between vehicles while in headway control can be set. The MRCC
with Stop & Go function indication is shown in the multi-information
display. The indicator light in the multi-information display will be
green and will turn on simultaneously.
NOTE: The radar for the MRCC with Stop & Go function is located behind the Mazda
emblem in the grille. Keep this area clean to ensure the system works properly.
How to set the speed:
1 Adjust the vehicle to the desired speed using the accelerator pedal.
2 Push the SET + or SET – switch. The set speed and the inter-vehicle distance display filled
with white lines are displayed in the multi-information display
and the MRCC indicator light
(green) turns on simultaneously.
3
Push the center of the RESUME switch to resume set speed.

SMART CITY BRAKE SUPPORT
(IF EQUIPPED)
SMART CITY BRAKE SUPPORT (SCBS) SYSTEM
Between speeds of 2 mph to 18 mph, the Smart City Brake Support
attempts to minimize damage if a collision is unavoidable. In some instances, SCBS may be able to stop the vehicle automatically to
avoid a collision with the vehicle ahead.
Partial list of operating conditions: • During vehicle speeds of 2 mph to 18 mph.
•
SCBS system has not been turned off.
NOTE: It may be possible to avoid a collision if the relative speed
between your vehicle and the vehicle ahead is less than 12 mph.
Refer to your Owner’s Manual for a complete list of SCBS operating
conditions and system details.
SAFETY SETTINGS
SCBS can be turned off using Safety Settings in MAZDA CONNECT (p. 15).

SMART BRAKE SUPPORT (SBS)
At speeds of 10 mph or higher, the Smart Brake Support (SBS) alerts the driver of a possible collision and attempts to reduce the severity of an imminent collision with the vehicle ahead. SBS
operates when the vehicle is traveling at speeds higher than the range of the SMART CITY BRAKE SUPPORT (SCBS).
Partial list of operating conditions: •
During vehicle speeds of 10 mph or higher.
•
The Smart Brake Support (SBS) system has not been turned off.
SBS system can be turned off using Safety Settings in
MAZDA CONNECT (p. 15).
Refer to your Owner’s Manual for a complete list of SBS operating
conditions and system details.

DISTANCE RECOGNITION SUPPORT SYSTEM (DRSS)
The Distance Recognition Support System (DRSS) measures the distance between
your vehicle and the vehicle ahead. DRSS uses a radar sensor (front) while the vehicle speed is 19 mph or faster and indicates a recommended distance to maintain between the vehicles. Furthermore, if your vehicle approaches a vehicle ahead more closely
than the appropriate distance to maintain between the vehicles, the vehicle ahead indication in the display is illuminated in white to advise the driver to keep a safe
distance from the vehicle ahead.

BLIND SPOT MONITORING SYSTEM
BLIND SPOT MONITORING (BSM)
The BSM system is designed to assist the driver by monitoring blind spots on the left
and right sides of the vehicle in certain situations, such as lane changes.
•
If your vehicle speed is 6 mph 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 you operate a turn signal in the direction of an illuminated
BSM warning light, the system will also warn you with a beep
(depending on personalization setting, p. 15) and a warning light
will flash.
•
BSM sensors are located under the
left and right rear bumper areas.
The BSM system may not operate properly if the rear bumper is dirty,
so keep the rear bumper area clean
and free of bumper stickers.
NOTE:
•
The 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.
•
Always pay attention to the direction
in which the vehicle is traveling
and the vehicle’s surroundings.
•
The BSM does not operate when the vehicle speed is
lower than about 6 mph.
•
The BSM system volume can be adjusted in personalization
settings (p. 15).
Turning BSM System Off:
Turning the BSM system off will turn off both the light and sound indicators. To turn the BSM System off, refer to the "Personalization Features" in the Owner's Manual.
The BSM OFF indicator in the instrument cluster will turn on to indicate the BSM system is off.
NOTE: Turning the BSM system will also turn off the Rear Cross Traffic Alert System.
WARNING:
BSM is only a
supplementary
system to help
aid in monitoring
blind spots;
however, BSM
has limitations.
The system may
not detect all
vehicles, especially
a motorcycle. Do
not rely solely on
the BSM. Relying
solely on the
BSM may cause
an unexpected
accident resulting
in death or serious
injury. Make sure
to look over your
shoulder before
changing lanes.
Refer to your Owner’s Manual
for complete details.

REAR CROSS TRAFFIC ALERT
(IF EQUIPPED)
REAR CROSS TRAFFIC ALERT (RCTA)
The RCTA is designed to alert the driver of oncoming traffic when backing out of a parking spot. RCTA is active when your vehicle is in reverse and your vehicle speed is 0 mph to 9 mph.
When the BSM sensors detect a moving object, the RCTA will notify the driver with indicators and sound:
• Rear view monitor and outside mirror flashing indications.
Refer to your Owner’s Manual for complete details.
WARNING:
RCTA is only a
supplementary
system to help aid
when backing up; however, RCTA
has limitations.
The system does not detect all
vehicles, especially motorcycles. Do
not rely solely on the RCTA. Relying
solely on the RCTA may cause
an unexpected
accident resulting in serious injury.
Always back up slowly.

WIPER / WASHER CONTROL
CAUTION:
If the ignition is ON, turn
the AUTO wipers OFF
when going through a car
wash or while cleaning or touching the windshield.
WINDSHIELD WIPER / WASHER CONTROL LEVER
(IF EQUIPPED)
The rain sensor senses the amount of rainfall and
turns the wipers on or off.
Rotating the inner ring
clockwise (away from you)
creates greater wiper sensitivity and makes the
wipers move faster. The + position increases wiper
speed. Rotating the inner ring counterclockwise
(toward you) makes the wipers move
slower. The - position
decreases wiper speed.
