y Smart Brake Support (SBS)



y Smart City Brake Support (SCBS)

CAUTION
Heed the following precautions to assure correct operation of the system. 



¾ Keep the windshield clean at all times.



¾ Do not apply stickers to the surface of the windshield (including transparent stickers).



¾ If cracks or damage caused by fl ying gravel or debris is visible near the laser sensor

¾ Never remove the sensor.



¾ A removed sensor will not meet the conditions for a class 1M laser under the IEC
60825-1 specifi cation and therefore eye safety cannot be assured.
 


¾ Do not peer into the sensor using optical instruments with a magnifi cation function
such as magnifying glasses, and microscopic and objective lenses within a distance of
100 mm (3.94 in) from the sensor.

horn, the engine sound of a motorcycle, the air brake sound of a large-sized vehicle, or
another vehicle's sensors.
 


y The vehicle is driven in heavy rain or in road conditions causing water-splash.



y A commercially-available fender pole or an antenna for a radio transmitter is installed
to the vehicle.
 


y The vehicle is moving towards a tall or square curbstone.



y An obstruction is too close to the sensor. 



y Obstructions under the bumper may not be detected. Obstructions that are lower than the
bumper or thin which may have been initially detected but are no longer detected as the

y The following types of obstructions may not be detected: 



y Thin objects such as wire or rope



y Things which absorb sonic waves easily such as cotton or snow



y Angular shaped objects



y Very tall objects, and those which are wide at the top



y Small, short objects 



y Always have the system inspected at an Authorized Mazda Dealer if any shock is applied
to the bumpers, even in a minor accident. If the sensors are deviated, they cannot detect
obstructions.
 


y The system may have a malfunction if the beep does not operate or the indicator
light does not illuminate when the park assist sensors switch is turned on. Consult an
Authorized Mazda Dealer.
 


y The system may have a malfunction if the beep sound which indicates a system
malfunction is heard and the indicator light À ashes. Consult an Authorized Mazda Dealer.
