Drive Selection*
▼Drive Selection
Drive selection is a system to switch the
vehicle's drive mode. When the sport
mode is selected, vehicle's response
against accelerator operation is enhanced.
This provides additional quick
acceleration which may be needed to
safely make maneuvers such as lane
changes, merging onto freeways, or
passing other vehicles.
CAUTION
Do not use the sport mode when driving on
slippery roads such as wet or snow-covered
roads. It may cause tire slipping.
NOTE
When the sport mode is selected, driving
at higher engine speeds increases and it
may increase fuel consumption. Mazda
recommends that you cancel the sport
mode on normal driving.
Drive mode cannot be switched in the
following conditions:
ABS/TCS/DSC is operating
Cruise control* is operating.
The Mazda Radar Cruise Control with
Stop & Go function (MRCC with Stop
& Go function) System
* is operating.
Traffic Jam Assist (TJA)* is operating.
Steering wheel is being operated
abruptly
▼Drive Selection Switch
Press the drive sele
ction switch forward
(SPORT) to select the sport mode.
Pull the drive selecti on switch back (OFF)
to cancel the sport mode.

NOTE
In the following cases, the drive
selection is canceled.
The ignition is switched OFF.
Cruise Control is set.
Mazda Radar Cruise Control with
Stop & Go function (MRCC with Stop
& Go function) is set.
Traffic Jam Assist (TJA) is set.
Depending on the driving conditions
when sport mode is selected, the vehicle
may perform shift-down or slightly
accelerate.

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. T
he 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 dri ve 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.
