wheel MAZDA MODEL 6 2020 (in English) Service Manual

Driving on roads with tight curves.
 Driving under bad weather conditions (rain, fog, and snow).
 Slippery roads such as ice or snow-bound roads.
 Roads with heavy traffic and insufficient distance between vehicles.
 Roads with no white (yellow) lane lines.
 Narrow roads resulting from road construction or lane closures.
 The vehicle is driven on a temp orary lane or section with a closed lane resulting from road
construction where there may be multiple white (yellow) lane lines or they are interrupted.
 Vehicle is driven on roads other than expressways and highways.
 The tire pressures are not adjusted to the
specified pressure.
 Tires of a different specified size are used, such as an emergency spare tire.
CAUTION
Heed the following cautions so that the LAS & LDWS can operate normally.
 Do not modify the suspensions.
 Always use wheels of the
specified type and size for the front and rear wheels. Consult an
Authorized Mazda Dealer for tire replacement.
NOTE
When the turn signal lever is operated for a lane change, the LAS & LDWS is
automatically disabled. The LAS & LDWS becomes operational again when the turn
signal lever is returned and the system detects white (yellow) lane lines while the vehicle
is being driven normally within its vehicle lane.
If the steering wheel, accelerator pedal, or brake pedal is operated abruptly and the
vehicle moves close to a white (yellow) line, the system determines that the driver is
making a lane change and the LAS & LDWS operation is temporarily canceled. The LAS
& LDWS becomes operational again when the system detects white (yellow) lane lines
while the vehicle is being driven normally within its vehicle lane.
If the vehicle deviates from its lane repeated ly within a short period of time, the LAS &
LDWS may not operate.
When white (yellow) lane lines are not detected, the LAS & LDWS does not operate.
Under the following conditions, the LAS & LDWS may not be able to detect white (yellow)
lane lines correctly and it may not operate normally.
If an object placed on the dashboard is reflected in the windshield and picked up by the
camera.
Heavy luggage is loaded in the luggage compartment or on the rear seat and the
vehicle is tilted.
The tire pressures are not adjusted to the specified pressure.

Advanced Smart City Brake Support (Advanced SCBS)*
The Advanced SCBS alerts the driver of a possible collision using the display and a warning
sound when the Forward Sensing Camera (FSC) detects a vehicle a head or pedestrian and
determines that a collision with the object is unavoidable whil e the vehicle is driven at a
vehicle speed of about 4 to 80 k m/h (2 to 50 mph) if the object is a vehicle ahead and about
10 to 80 km/h (6.2 to 50 mph) if the object is a pedestrian. In addition, the system reduces
damage in the event of a collision by operating the brake contr ol (Advanced SCBS brake)
when the system determines that a collision is unavoidable. In addition, when the driver
depresses the brake pedal, the brakes are applied firmly and qu ickly to assist. (Brake Assist

Do not rely completely on the Advanced SCBS system:
 The Advanced SCBS system is only designed to reduce damage in the event of a collision.
Over reliance on the system leading to the accelerator pedal or brake pedal being
mistakenly operated could result in an accident.
 The Advanced SCBS system operates in respo nse to a vehicle ahead or a pedestrian. The
system does not operate in response to obstru ctions such as a wall, 2-wheeled vehicles, or
animals.

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.
Refer to Stopping the Advanced Smart City Brake Support (Advanced SCBS) System Operation

(Object is a pedestrian)
The vehicle speed is between about 10 to 80 km/h (6.2 to 50 mph).
The Advanced SCBS system is not turned off.
Under the following conditions, the Advanced SCBS system may not operate normally:
The Advanced SCBS system will not operate if the driver is deliberately performing
driving operations (accelerator pedal and steering wheel).
If there is the possibility of partial contact with a vehicle ahead.
The vehicle is driven on a slippery road surface such as wet roads or icy or snow-bound
roads.
The braking performance is adversely affected due to cold temperatures or wet brakes.
The vehicle is driven at the same speed as the vehicle ahead.
The accelerator pedal is depressed.
The brake pedal is depressed.
The steering wheel is being operated.
The selector lever is being operated.
In the following cases, the Advanced SCBS may operate.
Objects on the road at the entrance to a curve.
Vehicles passing in the opposite lane while making a curve.
When passing through a toll gate.

Smart City Brake Support (SCBS)*
The SCBS system alerts the driver of a possible collision using an indication in the display
and a warning sound when the Forward Sensing Camera (FSC) detec ts a vehicle ahead and
determines that a collision with a vehicle ahead 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 operating the bra ke control (Smart City Brake
Support (SCBS) brake) when the system determines that a collisi on 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 s peed between your vehicle and the vehicle in
front of you is less than about 20 km/h (12 mph). In addition, when the 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 Ass ist (Smart City Brake Support
