i-ACTIVSENSE
i-ACTIVSENSE is a collective term covering a series of advanced safety and driver
support systems which make use of a Forward Sensing Camera (FSC) and radar sensors.
These systems consist of active safety and pre-crash safety systems.
Driver awareness support systems
Adaptive LED Headlights (ALH)
Lane Departure Warning System (LDWS)
Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM)
Distance Recognition Support System (DRSS)
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 recognise
potential hazards and avert accidents.
Nighttime visibility
Left/right side and rear side detection
Inter-vehicle distance recognition
Rear Cross Traffic Alert (RCTA)
Rear obstruction detection when leaving a parking space
Mazda Radar Cruise Control (MRCC)
Driver support systems
Collision damage reduction in low vehicle speed range
Advanced Smart City Brake Support (Advanced SCBS)
Pre-Crash Safety Technology
Pre-crash safety technology is designed to assist the dri
ver in averting collisions or
reduce their severity in situations where they cannot be avoided.

Adaptive LED Headlights (ALH)
The Adaptive LED Headlights (ALH) are controlled between high and low beams
as follows to assure the driver’s visibility without dazzling a vehicle ahead or a
vehicle approaching in the opposite direction.
This feature dims only the high-beam light shone on the vehicle ahead.
Glare-free high beam
The high beams will dim while driving at a speed of about 40 km/h (25 mph) or
faster. When the vehicle speed is less than about 30 km/h (18 mph), the beams
switch to the low beams.
NOTE
The headlight high-beam indicator light turns on while the high beams are on.
This feature extends the illumination range of the light cast by the low beams while
driving at a speed less than about 40 km/h (25 mph).
Wide-range low beam
This feature shifts the illumination angle of the light cast by the headlights upward
while driving on highways.

For details, refer to Section 4, “i-ACTIVSENSE”.
Adaptive LED Headlights (ALH)
NOTE
Under the following conditions, the Adaptive LED Headlights (ALH) may not
operate normally. Manually switch between the high and low beams according to
the visibility, and the road and traffic conditions.
• When there are other sources of light in the area such as street lamps,
illuminated signboards, and traffic signals.
• When there are reflective objects in the surrounding area such as reflective
plates and signs.
• When visibility is reduced under rain, snow and foggy conditions.
• When driving on roads with sharp curves or undulations.
The system switches the headlights to the high beams after the ignition is switched
ON and the headlight switch is in the position.
The Adaptive LED Headlights
(ALH) indicator light (green) in the instrument cluster turns on simultaneously.
To Operate the System
CAUTION
• Do not modify the suspensions or headlight units, or remove the camera.
Otherwise, the Adaptive LED Headlights (ALH) may not operate normally.
• Do not rely excessively on the Adaptive LED Headlights (ALH) and drive
the vehicle while paying sufficient attention to safety. Switch the headlights
between the high beams and low beams manually if necessary.
• When the headlights/rear lamps of vehicles ahead or in the opposite lane are
dim or not illuminated.
• When there is insufficient darkness such as at dawn or dusk.
• When the luggage compartment is loaded with heavy objects or the rear
passenger seats are occupied.
• When visibility is reduced due to a vehicle ahead spraying water from its
tyres onto your windscreen.

When Driving
For details, refer to Section 4, “i-ACTIVSENSE”.
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.
Collision Warning
The Smart Brake Support (SBS) system may not operate under the following
conditions:
•If the vehicle is accelerated rapidly and it comes close to a vehicle ahead.
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
obstruction, and operate the Smart Brake Support (SBS) system.
•Objects on the road at the entrance to a curve (including guardrails and
snow banks).
•The vehicle is driven at the same speed as the vehicle ahead.
•The accelerator pedal is depressed.
•A vehicle appears in the opposite lane while cornering or rounding a curve.
•When crossing a narrow bridge.
•When entering an underground parking area.
•Metal objects, bumps, or protruding objects on the road. NOTE

Forward Sensing Camera (FSC) are being displayed in the multi-
information display.
•
When passing under a low gate or through a tunnel or narrow gate.
•If you suddenly come close to a vehicle ahead.

Diesel Particulate Filter
The diesel particulate filter collects and removes most of the particulate matter
(PM) in the exhaust gas of a diesel engine.
• If the vehicle is driven at 15 km/h (9 mph) or less continuously.
For details, refer to Section 4, “Tyre Pressure Monitoring System” or
“Diesel Particulate Filter”.
The Tyre Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) monitors the air pressure of all
four tyres. If the air pressure of one or more tyres is too low, the system warns the
driver by indicating the tyre pressure monitoring system warning light in the
instrument cluster and operating a beep sound.
In the following cases, system initialization must be performed so that the system
operates normally.
• A tyre pressure is adjusted.
•
Tyre rotation is performed.
• A tyre or wheel is replaced.
• The battery is replaced or completely drained.
• The tyre pressure monitoring system warning
light is illuminated.
Tyre Pressure Monitoring System
PM collected by the diesel particulate filter is cleared during normal driving,
however, PM may not be removed and the diesel particulate filter indicator light
may illuminate under the following conditions:
• If the vehicle is repeatedly driven for a short period of time (10 minute or less)
or driven while the engine is cold.
• If the vehicle is idled for a long time.

X Mark MAX MIN
Owner Maintenance Precautions
Routine Service
We highly recommend that these items be inspected daily, or at least every week.
• Engine Oil Level
• Engine Coolant Level
• Brake and Clutch Fluid Level
• Washer Fluid Level
• Battery Maintenance
• Tyre Inflation Pressure
For details, refer to Section 6, “Owner Maintenance”.
Inspecting Engine Oil Level
If the engine oil level exceeds the “X” mark on the dipstick, replace the engine oil.
When inspecting the engine oil level, pull out the dipstick straight without twisting.
In addition, when inserting the dipstick, always insert it without twisting so that
the “X” mark faces the front of the vehicle.
Whenever the engine oil is replaced, the vehicles engine control unit needs to be reset as
soon as possible. Otherwise the wrench indicator light or engine oil warning light may
turn on. To reset the engine control unit, consult an expert repairer, we recommend an
Authorised Mazda Repairer or refer to the vehicle engine control unit reset procedure.
NOTE
The initialization (engine oil data resetting) of the recorded value can be
performed using the following procedure:
1. Switch the ignition OFF.
2. Switch the ignition ON with the selector pressed, and press and hold the
selector for about 5 seconds until the master w
arning light flashes.
3. After the master warning light flashes for several seconds, the
initialization is completed.
