▼Lane Departure Warning
If the system determines that the vehicle may deviate from its
lane, the lane departure
warning (beep sound, rumble sound (Mazda Connect (Type A) only)
*1, or steering wheel
vibration) is activated and the direction in which the system d etermines that the vehicle may
deviate is indicated in the multi-information display and the a ctive driving display.
If the system determines that the vehicle may deviate from its lane, the color of the lane line
on the side being detected by the system changes from white to amber, and flashes.

NOTE
If you have set the lane departure warning sound to the beep sound/rumble sound (Mazda
Connect (Type A) only)
*1 setting, the warning sound may not be heard depending on the
surrounding noise conditions.
If you have set the lane departure warning system to the steering wheel vibrations setting,
the vibration may not be felt depending on the road surface conditions.
When the setting for the steering operation assist is changed to operational, the warnings
can be set to activate/not activate. (When the setting for the steering operation assist is
changed to non-operational, the warnings cannot be set to not activate.)
Refer to the Settings section in the Mazda Connect Owner's Manual.
The LAS & LDWS can be changed to the following settings regardless of whether the
steering operation assist has been set to operational/non-operational. Always check the
setting status when driving the vehicle and make setting changes if necessary.

Advanced Smart City Brake Support (Advanced SCBS)*
The Advanced SCBS alerts the driver of a possible collision usi ng the display and a warning
sound when the Forward Sensing Camera (FSC) detects a vehicle a head or pedestrian and
determines that a collision with the object is unavoidable whil e the vehicle is driven at a
vehicle speed of about 4 to 80 km/h (2 to 50 mph) if the object is a vehicle ahead and about
10 to 80 km/h (6.2 to 50 mph) if the object is a pedestrian. In addition, the system reduces
damage in the event of a collision by operating the brake contr ol (Advanced SCBS brake)
when the system determines that a collision is unavoidable. In addition, when the driver
depresses the brake pedal, the brakes are applied firmly and qu ickly to assist. (Brake Assist

WARNING
Do not rely completely on the Advanced SCBS system:
 The Advanced SCBS system is only designed to reduce damage in the event of a collision.
Over reliance on the system leading to the accelerator pedal or brake pedal being
mistakenly operated could result in an accident.
 The Advanced SCBS system operates in response to a vehicle ahead or a pedestrian. The
system does not operate in response to obstru ctions such as a wall, 2-wheeled vehicles, or
animals.

Smart City Brake Support [Forward] (SCBS F)*
The SCBS F system alerts the driver of a possible collision using an indication in the
display and a warning sound when the Forward Sensing Camera (FS C) detects a vehicle
ahead and determines that a colli sion with a vehicle ahead is unavoidable while the vehicle
is being driven at a vehicle speed of about 4 to 80 km/h (2 to 50 mph). In addition, the
system reduces damage in the event of a collision by operating the brake control (Smart City
Brake Support (SCBS) brake) when t he system determines that a collision is unavoidable
while the vehicle is being driven at a vehicle speed of about 4 to 30 km/h (2 to 18 mph). It
may also be possible to avoid a collision if the relative speed between your vehicle and the
vehicle in front of you is les s than about 20 km/h (12 mph). In addition, when the driver
depresses the brake pedal while the system is in the operation range at about 4 to 30 km/h (2
to 18 mph), the brakes are applied firmly and quickly to assist . (Brake Assist (Smart City
Brake Support (SCBS) brake assist))

Smart City Brake Support [Reverse] (SCBS R)*
The SCBS R is a system which is designed to reduce damage in the event of a collision by
operating the brake control (SCB S brake) when the system’s ultrasonic sensors detect an
obstruction at the rear of the vehicle while driving at a speed of about 2 to 8 km/h (2 to 4
mph) and the system determines that a collision is unavoidable.
Reverse Ultrasonic sensor (rear)
WARNING
Do not rely completely on the SCBS R system:

The SCBS R system is only designed to red uce damage in the event of a collision. Over
reliance on the system leading to the accele rator pedal or brake pedal being mistakenly
operated could result in an accident.
 To assure the correct operation of the SCBS R, heed the following cautions.
 Do not apply a sticker to an ultrasonic sens or (rear) (including transparent stickers).
Otherwise, the ultrasonic sensor (rear) may no t be able to detect vehicles or obstructions
which could result in an accident.
 Do not disassemble an ultrasonic sensor (rear).
 If cracks or damage caused by flying gravel or debris is visible around an ultrasonic
sensor (rear), stop using the SCBS R system immediately and have your vehicle inspected
by an Authorized Mazda Dealer. If the vehi cle continues to be driven with cracks or
scratch marks left around an ultrasonic sensor, the system may operate unnecessarily
and cause an unexpected accident.
Refer to Stopping the Smart City Brake Supp ort [Reverse] (SCBS R) System Operation on
page 4-166.
 Consult an Authorized Mazda Dealer for rear bumper replacement.
Do not modify the suspension:
If the vehicle height or inclination is changed, the SCBS R system may not operate correctly
because it cannot detect obstructions correctly.
