i-ACTIVSENSE*
▼i-ACTIVSENSE
i-ACTIVSENSE is a collective term
covering a series of advanced safety
and driver support systems which
make use of cameras and sensors. The
systems consist of active safety and
pre-crash safety systems.
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
recognize potential hazards and avert
accidents.

▼Excessive Speed Warning
If the vehicle speed exceeds the speed limi
t sign displayed in the active driving
display/instrument cluster, the area around the speed limit sign flashes in amber and
the warning sound is activated at the same time. If the vehicle speed continues to
exceed the displayed speed limit sign, the indication stops flashing and remains on.
Check the surrounding conditions and adju st the vehicle speed to the legal speed
using the appropriate operation such as depressing the brake pedal.
1. Vehicle is doing 55 mph when 50 mph speed limit sign is recognized.
2. Vehicle continues to do 55 mph after 50 mph speed limit sign is recognized.
3. Active driving display indication

Distance & Speed Alert(DSA)
*
▼Distance & Speed Alert (DSA)
The DSA is designed to assist your
driving using the display indications so
that the distance between your vehicle
and a vehicle ahead can be maintained
appropriately.
WARNING
Do not rely completely on the DSA
and always drive carefully:
The DSA may not be able to detect a
vehicle ahead depending on the type
of vehicle ahead and its conditions, the
weather conditions, and the road
conditions. In addition, the system is
not for maintaining the distance
between your vehicle and a vehicle
ahead. If you neglect to operate the
accelerator and brake pedals correctly,
it could lead to an accident.
Always check the surrounding
conditions and depress the brake
pedal or accelerator pedal while
keeping a safe distance from a vehicle
ahead or a vehicle following behind
you.
Operation conditions
The DSA operates when all of the
following conditions are met.
The ignition is switched ON.The DSA is on.The selector lever is in a position
other than R.
The vehicle speed is about 30 km/h
(19 mph) or faster.
i-ACTIVSENSE status symbol
(warning/risk av
oidance support
system) (green) is displayed.
The vehicle ahead is a vehicle with
four wheels.
NOTE
The DSA may also operate in the
presence of motorcycles and
bicycles.
The DSA does not operate with the
following objects.
On-coming vehiclesPed e st r i an sStationary objects (such as
stopped vehicles, obstructions)
If a vehicle ahead is traveling at an
extremely low speed, the system may
not detect it correctly.
The DSA can be set to inoperable.
However, when the ignition is
switched OFF while the DSA is
canceled, the DSA is automatically
enabled the next time the ignition is
switched ON.
Refer to the Settings section in the
Mazda Connect Owner's Manual.
Refer to i-ACTIVSENSE OFF Switch
on page 4-92.

If the steering wheel is held lightly, or depending on the road conditions, the
system determines that you have released the steering wheel even if you are
holding it, and an alert is indicated on the multi-information display and the active
driving display.

To resume operation
If the TJA is temporarily canceled, it will resume operation at the previously set speed
by pressing the RES switch after all of the operation conditions have been met.
NOTE
If the set speed is not indicated on the di splay, the system does not operate even if
the RES switch is pressed.
After the operation, the steering assist operation may not operate for a period of 5
seconds at the most until the lane lines are detected or a vehicle ahead is
recognized.

Tu r n i n g off
When the TJA switch is pressed while the TJA is operating, the TJA turns off.
▼Stop Hold Control
While in headway control using the
TJA, your vehicle will stop when a
vehicle ahead stops. When the vehicle
is stopped and the stop hold control
operates, the TJA indicator light turns
on.
NOTE
Even if the TJA is temporarily
canceled during stop hold control,
the vehicle is held in its stopped
position.
The parking brake is automatically
applied and the vehicle is held in its
stopped position when 10 minutes
or longer have passed since the stop
hold control operated. When this
occurs, the TJA is temporarily
canceled.
The brake lights turn on during stop
hold control.

To resume driving
After the vehicle ahead starts moving
while your vehicle is stopped under
stop hold control, press the RES switch
or depress the accelerator pedal to
cancel the stop hold control and start
driving.

indications alert the driver of the
danger.
WARNING
Do not rely completely on the Road
Keep Assist function and always drive
carefully:
The Road Keep Assist function has
limitations. Do not rely completely
on the system and always stay on
course using the steering wheel.
 The Road Keep Assist function is not
an autonomous driving system. In
addition, the system is not designed
to compensate for a driver’s lack of
caution, and over-reliance on the
system could lead to an accident.
Do not use the system under the
following conditions. Otherwise, it
may result in an accident:
 The vehicle is driven on slippery
roads such as icy roads,
snow-covered roads, and unpaved
roads.
 Tires other than the specified size are
used, such as when tire chains or
temporary spare tires are used.
 The vehicle is towing a camping
trailer or boat trailer.
Operation conditions
The Road Keep Assist function
becomes operational when any of the
following conditions is met.
The vehicle speed is about 64 km/h
(40 mph) or faster.
The vehicle is driven on a straight
road or gentle curve.
The function recognizes the outside
of the road by detecting target
objects (such as gravel, grass, street
gutters, road curbs, guardrails, or
walls).
NOTE
The Road Keep Assist function may
not operate normally when any of
the following conditions is met.
A condition under which the
Forward Sensing Camera (FSC)
cannot detect a target is met.
Refer to Forward Sensing Camera
(FSC) on page 4-189.
The target objects are
difficult to
detect (due to low road curb, no
contrast between the inside and
outside of the road, or being
hidden by vehicles ahead).
A misleading line (such as
temporary line for construction,
shadow, lingering snow, or grooves filled with water) is recognized as a
target object.
The road width is narrow.The vehicle is shaken after hitting a
road bump.
When the ELK OFF indicator light is
on, the system is canceled according
to a Mazda Connect setting.
