Cruising & Traffic Support(CTS)
*
The CTS is a system that reduces the
load on the driver while the vehicle is
driven on expressways or highways.
The CTS has the following 2 functions.
Constant speed/Headway control
function
The function performs headway
control to maintain the distance with a
vehicle ahead at a constant preset
speed without you having to depress
the accelerator or brake pedal.
Steering wheel assist function
When vehicle lane lines are detected,
the function assists your steering wheel
operation to follow the vehicle lane
lines.
When vehicle lane lines are not
detected, the function assists your
steering wheel operation to follow the
trajectory of the vehicle ahead.
Warnings and Cautionsfor Using Cruising &
Tra ffi c Support (CTS)
WARNING
Do not rely completely on the CTS.

The CTS is not an automated driving
system. Therefore, the function has
limitations. Do not rely completely
on the system and always stay on
course using the steering wheel.
 Set a vehicle speed within the speed
limit according to the road
conditions and the weather
conditions.
 The CTS 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. Additionally, the system
might be unable to decelerate
sufficiently if the vehicle ahead
applies the brakes suddenly or
another vehicle cuts into your lane,
which could result in an accident.
Do not use the CTS under the
following conditions. Otherwise, it
may result in an accident.
 The vehicle is driven on roads other
than expressways and highways.
 The vehicle is driven on roads with
sharp curves or with heavy
traffic
where sufficient distances between
vehicles cannot be kept.
 The vehicle is driven on roads where
acceleration and deceleration are
frequently repeated.
 The vehicle is exiting the main lane
on an expressway to enter an
interchange, a rest area, or a parking
area.

The vehicle is driven on slippery
roads such as icy roads,
snow-covered roads, and unpaved
roads.
 The vehicle is driven on a long
downslope.
 The vehicle is driven on a steep
slope.
 A two-wheeled vehicle such as a
motorcycle or bicycle is traveling
ahead.
 The vehicle is being towed or towing
another vehicle.
 Proximity warnings activate
frequently.
 Under bad weather conditions (rain,
fog , and snow).
 Tires other than the
specified size are
used, such as when tire chains or
temporary spare tires are used.
 The tire pressures are not adjusted to
the appropriate pressure.
 Tires with insufficient tread are used.
Switch the CTS off when it is not
being used.
Leaving the CTS on when it is not in
use is dangerous as it could operate
unexpectedly, resulting in an accident.
Do not leave the vehicle while the
vehicle is stopped by the CTS control.
Getting out of the vehicle while the
stop hold control is operating is
dangerous as the vehicle may move
unexpectedly and result in an accident.
Before leaving the vehicle, switch the
CTS off, shift the selector lever to the P
position, and apply the parking brake.CAUTION
 Heed the following cautions so that
the CTS can operate normally.
 Do not modify the suspensions.
 Always use wheels of the
specified
size for the front and rear wheels.
Consult an Authorized Mazda
Dealer for tire replacement.
 Turn off the CTS when the vehicle is
running on a chassis roller.

How to Use the Cruising & Traffic Support (CTS)
CTS operation conditions
The CTS speed can be set when all of the following conditions are met.
The brake pedal is not depressed.The vehicle speed is about 0 km/h (0 mph) to 145 km/h (90 mph).The Hill Descent Control is not operating.The Mazda Radar Cruise Control is available.
Setting the CTS
1. Press the CTS switch to turn the system on.
When the system is on, the CTS standby indication (white) is displayed on
the screen.
2. Accelerate to the desired speed.
3. Set the vehicle speed by pressing the RES switch up (SET+) or down (SET-).
Constant speed driving starts when the vehicle speed is set. In addition, the set
speed is displayed on the screen, and the CTS standby indication (white)
changes to the CTS set indication (green).
If a vehicle ahead is detected while traveling at a constant speed, the system
switches to headway control. The vehicle ahead indication is displayed on the screen
while in headway control.

to be driven at the set speed.
Refer to Mazda intelligent Drive Select (Mi-Drive) on page 5-95.
If there is a structure on the road or an obstruction at a low height off the ground
in front of the vehicle, the system may recognize it as a vehicle ahead.
Acceleration and deceleration by accelerator pedal operation takes priority while
traveling at a constant speed or in headway control. When the accelerator pedal is
released, the vehicle returns to driving at a constant speed or headway control at
the set speed.
The Forward Sensing Camera (FSC) may not be able to detect target objects
correctly, and the CTS may not operate normally.
Refer to Forward Sensing Camera (FSC) on page 5-127.
If a vehicle ahead is traveling at an extremely low speed, the system may not
detect it correctly.
While driving using the CTS, intended engine braking is not applied even if the
selector lever is operated.
The brake lights turn on while the brakes are operating by the CTS control.
