When Driving
For details, refer to Section 4, “Mazda Radar Cruise Control (MRCC)”.
Mazda Radar Cruise Control (MRCC) system
The Mazda Radar Cruise Control (MRCC) system is designed to maintain
headway control according to the vehicle speed using a radar sensor to detect the
distance to a vehicle ahead, which frees the driver from having to use the
accelerator or brake pedals.
Additionally, if your vehicle starts closing in on the vehicle ahead because, for
example, the vehicle ahead brakes suddenly, a warning sound and a warning
indication in the display are activated simultaneously to alert you to maintain a
sufficient distance between the vehicles.
Use the Mazda Radar Cruise Control (MRCC) system on expressways and other
highways which do not require a lot of repeated acceleration and deceleration. The possible vehicle speed setting ranges are as follows:
Do not rely completely on the Mazda Radar Cruise Control (MRCC) system
and always drive carefully:
The Mazda Radar Cruise Control (MRCC) system has limitations in its ability to
detect vehicles ahead depending on the weather and road conditions.
Additionally, the system may be unable to decelerate sufficiently to avoid
hitting the vehicle ahead if the vehicle ahead applies the brakes suddenly or
another vehicle cuts into the driving lane, which could result in an accident.
Check the safety of the surroundings and pay sufficient attention to the
distance between your vehicle and the vehicles travelling in front and behind.
WARNING
Do not use the Mazda Radar Cruise Control (MRCC) system in the
following locations. Otherwise, it could lead to an accident:
• Roads with sharp curves, heavy traffic, or roads requiring repeated and
frequent acceleration.
• When entering expressway interchanges and service areas.
• Slippery roads such as ice or snow-bound roads.
• Long descending slopes.
• (European models)
About 30 km/h (19 mph) to 200 km/h (124 mph)
• (Except European models)
About 30 km/h (19 mph) to 145 km/h (90 mph)

When Driving
For details, refer to Section 4, “Smart City Brake Support [Forward] (SCBS
F)”, “Smart City Brake Support [Reverse] (SCBS R)”.
Smart City Brake Support [Forward] (SCBS F)/Smart City Brake Support [Reverse] (SCBS R)
The Smart City Brake Support [Forward] (SCBS F) is a system designed to reduce
damage in the event of a collision by operating the brake control when the system’s
laser sensor (front) detects a vehicle ahead and the system determines that a
collision is unavoidable. The system operates while the vehicle is moving in the
forward direction in the speed range of 4 to 30 km/h (3 to 18 mph), reducing
damage in the event of a collision.
It may also be possible to avoid a collision if the relative speed between your
vehicle and the vehicle in front of you is less than about 20 km/h (12 mph).
Smart City Brake Support [Forward] (SCBS F)
The Smart City Brake Support [Reverse] (SCBS R) is a system designed to reduce
damage in the event of a collision by operating the brake control when the system’s
ultrasonic sensors detect a vehicle or a wall at the rear of the vehicle and the system
determines that a collision is unavoidable.
The system operates while the vehicle is reversing in the speed range of 2 to 8 km/h
(2 to 4 mph), reducing damage in the event of a collision.
Smart City Brake Support [Reverse] (SCBS R)
Do not rely completely on the system:
• (Smart City Brake Support [Forward] (SCBS F))
If the vehicle height or inclination is changed, the system will not be able to
correctly detect vehicles ahead. This will result in the Smart City Brake
Support (SCBS) system not operating normally or mistakenly operating,
which could cause a serious accident.
WARNING
Do not modify the suspension: • (Smart City Brake Support [Reverse] (SCBS R))The Smart City Brake Support [Forward] (SCBS F) operates in response to
a vehicle (4-wheeled vehicle) in front of your vehicle. Operation in
response to 2-wheeled vehicles or pedestrians is not guaranteed.
The Smart City Brake Support [Reverse] (SCBS R) operates in response to
a vehicle (4-wheeled vehicle) behind of your vehicle or a wall. Operation in
response to 2-wheeled vehicles or pedestrians is not guaranteed.

When Driving
Smart Brake Support (SBS)
Smart Brake Support (SBS) is a system which alerts the driver of a possible
collision using an indicator and warning sound in the instrument cluster while the
vehicle is being driven at about 15 km/h or faster (10 mph or faster) and the
system's radar sensor determines that your vehicle may hit a vehicle ahead.
Furthermore, if the radar sensor determines that a collision is unavoidable, the
automatic brake control is performed to reduce damage in the event of a collision.
For details, refer to Section 4, “Smart Brake Support (SBS)”.
Do not rely completely on the Smart Brake Support (SBS) system and always
drive carefully:
The Smart Brake Support (SBS) system is only designed to reduce damage in the
event of a collision. The ability to detect obstructions is limited depending on the
obstruction, weather conditions, or traffic conditions.
Check the safety of the surroundings and pay sufficient attention to the
distance between your vehicle and the vehicles travelling in front and behind.
