on standby. The
system becomes operational when all of the following conditions are met.\
 The system detects white (yellow) lane lines on both the right and lef\
t sides, or on either
side. The vehicle speed is about 60 km/h (37 mph) or faster. The vehicle is driven on a straight road or road with gentle curves. The engine is running.
The Lane-keep Assist System (LAS) & Lane Departure Warning System (LDWS) goes on
stand-by status in the following cases:
 The system cannot detect white (yellow) lane lines. The vehicle speed is less than about 60 km/h (37 mph). The vehicle is making a sharp curve. The vehicle is making a curve at an inappropriate speed.
NOTE
 The Lane-keep Assist System (LAS) & Lane Departure Warning System (LDWS) remains
on stand-by until it detects white (yellow) lines on both the left and\
right sides, or on
either side.
 When the system detects a white (yellow) lane line on one side only , the system will not
activate warnings for the lane line on the side that is not being detect\
ed. The distance and warning sensitivity (likelihood of a warning) which t\
he system uses to
determine the possibility of a lane departure can be changed.
Refer to Setting Change (Personalization Features) on page 9-12.

is switched OFF with the lane-keep
system operable, the system will be
operable when the ignition is switched
ON the next time.
 In the following cases, the Lane-keep
Assist System (LAS) & Lane Departure
Warning System (LDWS) is canceled
automatically and the Lane-keep
Assist System (LAS) & Lane Departure
Warning System (LDWS) OFF indicator
light turns on. Have your vehicle
inspected at an Authorized Mazda
Dealer.

Smart City Brake Support (SCBS)*
The Smart City Brake Support (SCBS) system alerts the driver of a possible collision using
an indication in the display and a warning sound when the Forward Sensin\
g Camera (FSC)
detects a vehicle ahead and determines that a collision with a vehicle a\
head 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 op\
erating the brake
control (SCBS brake) when the 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 vehi\
cle and the vehicle in
front of you is less than about 20 km/h (12 mph). In addition, when th\
e 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 (SCBS brake assist))

Collision Warning
If there is the possibility of a collision
with a vehicle ahead, the beep sounds
continuously and a warning is indicated in
the active driving display.
NOTE
 (Without SCBS OFF switch)
The operation distance and volume of
the collision warning can be changed.
Refer to Personalization Features on
page 9-12. (With SCBS OFF switch)
The operation distance and volume of
the collision warning can be changed.
Consult an Authorized Mazda Dealer.

indicated in the active driving display after
the SCBS brakes or the brake assist (SCBS
brake assist) is operated.
NOTE
 The collision warning beep sounds
intermittently while the SCBS brake
or brake assist (SCBS brake assist) is
operating.
 If the vehicle is stopped by the SCBS
operation and the brake pedal is not
depressed, the warning beep sounds
one time after about 2 seconds and the
SCBS brake is automatically released.
Stopping the Smart City Brake
Support (SCBS) System Operation
The Smart City Brake Support (SCBS)
system can be temporarily deactivated.
When the Smart City Brake Support
(SCBS) system is turned off, the Smart
City Brake Support (SCBS) OFF indicator
light turns on.
When the engine is restarted, the system
becomes operational.

Smart Brake Support (SBS)*
The Smart Brake Support (SBS) system alerts the driver of a possible collision using a
display and warning sound if the radar sensor (front) and the Forward \
Sensing Camera
(FSC) determine that there is the possibility of a collision with a ve\
hicle ahead while the
vehicle is being driven at about 15 km/h or faster (10 mph or faster).\
Furthermore, if the
radar sensor (front) and the Forward Sensing Camera (FSC) determines\
that a collision is
unavoidable, the automatic brake control is performed to reduce damage i\
n the event of a
collision.
In addition, when the driver depresses the brake pedal, the brakes are applied firmly and
quickly to assist. (Brake Assist (SBS brake assist))
WARNING
Do not rely completely on the Smart Brake Support (SBS) system and always drive
carefully:The Smart Brake Support (SBS) is designed to reduce damage in the event of a collision,
not avoid an accident. The ability to detect an obstruction is limited depending on the
obstruction, weather conditions, or traffic conditions. Therefore, if the accelerator pedal
or brake pedal is mistakenly operated it could result in an accident. Always verify the
safety of the surrounding area and depress the brake pedal or accelerator pedal while
keeping a safer distance from vehicles ahead or on-coming vehicles.
CAUTION
In the following cases, turn the system off to prevent a mis-operation:
 The vehicle is being towed or when towing another vehicle. The vehicle is on a chassis roller. When driving on rough roads such as in areas of dense grass or off-road.

ar e turned off. When warnings and messages, such as a dirty windshield, related to the Forward
Sensing Camera (FSC) are being displayed in the center display.
 Although the objects which activate the system are four-wheeled vehicles, the radar
sensor (front) could detect the following objects, determine them to be an obstru\
ction, and
operate the Smart Brake Support (SBS) system.
 Objects on the road at the entrance to a curve (including guardrails and snow banks). A vehicle appears in the opposite lane while cornering or rounding a curve. When crossing a narrow bridge. When passing under a low gate or thr ough a tunnel or narrow gate. When entering an underground parking area. Metal objects, bumps, or pr otruding objects on the road. If you suddenly come close to a vehicle ahead. When driving in areas where there is high grass or forage. Two-wheeled vehicles such as motorbikes or bicycles. Pedestrians or non-metallic objects such as standing tr ees.
