Smart Brake Support
SMART BRAKE SUPPORT (SBS) (if equipped)
The 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 10 mph
(15 km/h) 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. In addition,
when the driver depresses the brake pedal, the brakes operate more
quickly to assist the driver.
Refer to your Owner’s Manual for complete details.
Radar sensor Laser sensor
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 multi-information display.
SBS system can be turned off using Safety Settings in MAZDA CONNECT.
(see page 10)
WARNING: SBS is only a supplementary system to reduce damage in the
event of a collision, however the SBS has limitations. Do not rely solely on the
SBS, Always keep your eyes on the road.

Lane Departure Warning System
LANE DEPARTURE WARNING SYSTEM (LDWS) (if equipped)
The LDWS recognizes painted lane lines on a road using the forward
sensing camera (FSC) installed to the windshield. If the vehicle deviates
from its lane at speeds above 44 mph, the system alerts the driver using
the following indicators.
Use the LDWS switch to
turn system ON or OFF
WARNING: LDWS is only a supplementary
system to warn the driver that the vehicle may be
deviating from its lane, however the LDWS has
limitations. Do not rely solely on the LDWS. Relying
solely on the LDWS may cause an unexpected
accident resulting in death or serious injury. Always
pay attention to the direction in which the vehicle is
traveling and drive safely.
NOTE: Any driver input (e.g., turn signal, steering or acceleration) will cancel warning.

Distance Recognition Support System
DISTANCE RECOGNITION SUPPORT SYSTEM (DRSS)
(if equipped)
The Distance Recognition Support System (DRSS) measures the distance
between your vehicle and a vehicle ahead using a radar sensor (front)
while the vehicle speed is 19 mph (30 km/h) or faster, and indicates a
recommended distance to maintain between the vehicles. Furthermore, if
your vehicle approaches a vehicle ahead more closely than the appropriate
distance to maintain between the vehicles, the vehicle-ahead indication in
the display is flashed to advise the driver to keep a safe distance from the
vehicle ahead.

Blind Spot Monitoring System
NOTE: Do not rely completely on the BSM system and be sure to look over
your shoulder before changing lanes:
• The BSM system can assist the driver in confirming the safety of the surroundings,
but is not a complete substitute.
• The driver is responsible for ensuring safe lane changes and other maneuvers.
• Always pay attention to the direction in which the vehicle is traveling and the
vehicle’s surroundings.
• The BSM system does not operate when the vehicle speed is lower than about
6.2 mph (10 km/h).
Turning BSM System Off
Turning the BSM system off will turn off both the light and sound
indicators. To manually turn the BSM system off, push the BSM
OFF switch on the dash. The BSM OFF indicator will illuminate
in the instrument cluster when the BSM system is off. The BSM
system will retain the last setting before the ignition was turned off.
BLIND SPOT MONITORING (BSM) SYSTEM
The Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM) system is designed to assist the driver
by monitoring the blind spots to the rear of the vehicle on both sides.
• If your vehicle speed is about 6.2 mph (10 km/h) or more, the BSM
will warn you of vehicles in the detection area by illuminating the
BSM warning lights located on the left and right door mirrors.
• If you operate a turn signal in the direction of an illuminated BSM warning
light, the system will also warn you with a beep and warning light flash.
• BSM sensors are located under the left and right rear bumper areas.
The BSM system may not operate properly if the rear bumper gets too
dirty, so keep the rear bumper area clean.
Refer to your Owner’s Manual for complete details.

Rear Cross Traffic Alert
REAR CROSS TRAFFIC ALERT (RCTA) (if equipped)
The RCTA is designed to alert the driver of oncoming traffic when
backing out of a parking spot. RCTA is active when your vehicle is in
reverse and your vehicle speed is 0 to 8 mph (13 km/h).
When BSM sensors detect an object moving 3 to 18 mph (5 to 30 km/h),
RCTA will notify the driver with indicators and sound:
• Rear View Monitor and outside mirror flashing indications.
• Beep sound (same as BSM).
Refer to your Owner’s Manual for complete details.
Object Detected Object Detected
WARNING: RCTA is only a supplementary system to help aid when backing up ,
however R C TA has limitations. The system does not detect all vehicles, especially
a motorcycle . Do not rely solely on the R C TA . Relying solely on the R C TA may
cause an unexpected accident resulting in serious injury. Always back up slowly.
