Antilock Brake System(ABS)
▼Antilock Brake System (ABS)
The ABS control unit continuously
monitors the speed of each wheel. If
one wheel is about to lock up, the ABS
responds by automatically releasing
and reapplying that wheel's brake.

The driver will feel a slight vibration in
the brake pedal and may hear a
chattering noise from the brake system.
This is normal ABS system operation.
Continue to depress the brake pedal
without pumping the brakes.

The warning light turns on when the
system has a malfunction.
Refer to ABS Warning Indication/
Warning Light on page 7-25.
WARNING
Do not rely on ABS as a substitute for
safe driving:
The ABS cannot compensate for unsafe
and reckless driving , excessive speed,
tailgating (following another vehicle
too closely), driving on ice and snow,
and hydroplaning (reduced tire friction
and road contact because of water on
the road surface). You can still have an
accident.
NOTE
Braking distances may be longer on
loose surfaces (snow or gravel, for
example) which usually have a hard
foundation. A vehicle with a normal
braking system may require less
distance to stop under these
conditions because the tires will
build up a wedge of surface layer
when the wheels skid.
The sound of the ABS operating may
be heard when starting the engine or
immediately after starting the
vehicle, however, it does not indicate
a malfunction.

WARNING
Always check the surrounding area
visually before actually putting the
vehicle in reverse:
The system is only designed to assist
you in backing out of the lot when
putting the vehicle in reverse. Due to
certain limitations with the operation
of this system, the SBS-RC system may
not operate brake or it might be
delayed even though a vehicle is
behind your vehicle. Always make it
your responsibility as a driver to check
the rear.
Do not rely completely on the SBS-RC
system:
The
SBS-RC 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 SBS-RC system operates in
response to a vehicle. The system
does not operate in response to
obstructions such as a wall,
pedestrians, 2-wheeled vehicles, or
animals.
To assure the correct operation of the
SBS-RC, heed the following cautions.
 Do not apply a sticker to a rear radar
and rear camera. Otherwise, the rear
radar and rear camera may not be
able to detect vehicles or
obstructions which could result in an
accident.
 Do not disassemble a rear radar and
rear camera.
If cracks or damage caused by flying
gravel or debris is visible around a
rear radar and rear camera, stop
using the SBS-RC system
immediately and have your vehicle
inspected by an Authorized Mazda
Dealer. If the vehicle continues to be
driven with cracks or scratch marks
left around an ultrasonic sensor, the
system may operate unnecessarily
and cause an unexpected accident.
Refer to Stopping the Smart Brake
Support [Rear Crossing] (SBS-RC)
System Operation on page 4-159.
 Consult an Authorized Mazda Dealer
for rear bumper replacement.
Do not modify the suspension:
If the vehicle height or inclination is
changed, the SBS-RC system may not
operate correctly because it cannot
detect obstructions correctly.
Do not apply a strong force to a rear
radar and rear camera:
When washing the vehicle, do not
spray highly pressurized water against a
rear radar and rear camera, or rub it
strongly. In addition, do not hit the rear
bumper forcefully when loading and
unloading cargo. Otherwise, the
sensors may not detect obstructions
correctly which could cause the
SBS-RC system to not operate
normally, or it could operate
unnecessarily.

The shooting range of the cameras and
detection range of the sensors are
limited. For example, the areas in black
at the front and rear of the vehicle
image and the seams where each of
the camera images merge are blind
spots where an obstruction may not be
visible. In addition, the extended
vehicle width lines and projected
vehicle path lines are only to be used
as references, and the images on the
screen may differ from the actual
conditions.
CAUTION
Do not use the 360°View Monitor
under any of the following
conditions.
 Icy or snow-covered roads.
 Tire chains or a temporary spare
tire is installed.
 The front or rear doors are not fully

of the front/rear camera, front
bumper, liftgate and door mirrors.
 Heed the following cautions to
assure that the 360°View Monitor
operates normally.
 Do not modify the vehicle
suspensions or lower/raise the
vehicle body, or both.
 Always use wheels of the
specified
type and size for the front and rear
wheels. Consult an Authorized
Mazda Dealer for tire replacement.
 When the display is cold, images
may leave trails or the screen might
be darker than usual, making it
difficult to check the vehicle
surroundings. Always confirm the
safety at the front and around the
vehicle visually when driving.
 The method for parking/stopping
the vehicle using the 360°View
Monitor
differs depending on the
road circumstances/conditions and
the vehicle conditions. When and
how much you turn the steering
wheel will differ depending on the
situation, , therefore always check
the vehicle surroundings directly with
your eyes while using the system.
Also, before using the system, always
make sure that the vehicle can be
parked/stopped in the parking/
stopping space.

Please note that the TPMS is not a
substitute for proper tire
maintenance, and it is the driver's
responsibility to maintain correct tire
pressure, even if under-inflation has
not reached the level to trigger
illumination of the TPMS low tire
pressure telltale.
Your vehicle has also been equipped
with a TPMS malfunction indicator to
indicate when the system is not
operating properly.
The TPMS malfunction indicator is
combined with the low tire pressure
telltale. When the system detects a
malfunction, the telltale will flash for
approximately one minute and then
remain continuously illuminated.
This sequence will continue upon
subsequent vehicle start-ups as long
as the malfunction exists. When the
malfunction indicator is illuminated,
the system may not be able to detect
or signal low tire pressure as
intended. TPMS malfunctions may
occur for a variety of reasons,
including the installation of
replacement or alternate tires or
wheels on the vehicle that prevent
the TPMS from functioning properly.
Always check the TPMS malfunction
telltale after replacing one or more
tires or wheels on your vehicle to
ensure that the replacement or
alternate tires and wheels allow the
TPMS to continue to function
properly.
 To avoid false readings, the system
samples for a little while before
indicating a problem. As a result it
will not instantaneously register a
rapid tire deflation or blow out.▼ If there is a problem with the Tire
Pressure Monitoring System
(TPMS)
If the TPMS warning light flashes, there
may be a problem with the system.
Consult an Authorized Mazda Dealer
to have the system inspected.
Refer to Tire Pressure Monitoring
System (TPMS) Warning Indication/
Warning Light (Flashing) on page
7-27.
In the following cases, the system
cannot recognize the tire pressures
correctly and the TPMS warning light
may
flash.
There is equipment or a device
nearby emitting radio signals the
same as a tire pressure sensor.
A metallic object such as a
non-genuine electronic device is
installed near the center of the
dashboard (obstructs the radio
signals from the tire pressure sensors
to the receiver).
A device such as one of the following
is used in the cabin.
Electronic devices such as a
computer.
Converter devices such as a
DC-AC converter.
There is a large accumulation of
snow or ice around the vehicle tires.
The battery in a tire pressure sensor
is dead.
A wheel not equipped with a tire
pressure sensor is used.
Tires employing steel in the sidewall
of the tire are installed.
Tire chains are used.
▼When a tire pressure decreases
If the TPMS warning light turns on, a
tire pressure may be low. Inspect the
tire pressures and adjust them to the
correct inflation pressure.
