Always confirm the safety around the
vehicle before starting to drive the
vehicle.
NOTE
HLA does not operate on a gentle
slope. In addition, the gradient of
the slope on which the system will
operate changes depending on the
vehicle's load.
HLA does not operate if the parking
brake is applied, the vehicle has not
stopped completely, or the clutch
pedal is released.
While HLA is operating, the brake
pedal may feel stiff and vibrate,
however, this does not indicate a
malfunction.
HLA does not operate while the
TCS/DSC indicator light is
illuminated.
Refer to TCS/DSC Indication/
Indicator Light (Turns on) on page
7-27.
HLA does not turn off even if the TCS
OFF switch is pressed to turn off the
TCS.

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.

Stop & Go function) (Automatic
Transmission)
*
▼ Mazda Radar Cruise Control with
Stop & Go function (MRCC with
Stop & Go function)
The MRCC with Stop & Go function
system is designed to maintain
headway control
*1 with a vehicle
ahead according to your vehicle's
speed using a front radar sensor to
detect the distance to the vehicle
ahead and a preset vehicle speed
without you having to use the
accelerator or brake pedals.
*1 Headway Control: Control of the distance between your vehicle and
the vehicle ahead detected by the
Mazda Radar Cruise Control
(MRCC) system.
Additionally, if your vehicle starts
closing in on the vehicle ahead such as
if 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.
If the vehicle ahead stops while you are
following behind it, your vehicle will
stop and be held stopped
automatically (stop hold control), and
headway control will resume when you
resume driving the vehicle such as by
pressing the RES switch.
Also refer to the following before using
the MRCC with Stop & Go function.

WARNING
Do not rely completely on the MRCC
with Stop & Go function:
The MRCC with Stop & Go function
system has detection limitations
depending on the type of vehicle
ahead and its conditions, the weather
conditions, and the 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 in front of you, which could result
in an accident.
Always drive carefully and verify the
surrounding conditions and depress
the brake pedal or accelerator pedal
while keeping a safe distance from
vehicles ahead or on-coming vehicles.
Do not use the MRCC with Stop & Go
function system in the following
locations. Using the MRCC with Stop
& Go function system at the following
locations may result in an unexpected
accident:
General roads other than highways
(Driving under these conditions
using the MRCC with Stop & Go
function system is not possible.)
 Roads with sharp curves and where
vehicle traffic is heavy with
insufficient space between vehicles,
or roads where frequent and
repetitive acceleration and
deceleration occur (Driving under
these conditions using the MRCC
with Stop & Go function is not
possible).
When entering and exiting
interchanges, service areas, and
parking areas of highways (If you exit
a highway while headway control is
in use, the vehicle ahead will no
longer be tracked and your vehicle
may accelerate to the set speed).
 Slippery roads such as ice or
snow-bound roads (Tires could spin
causing you to lose vehicle control,
or the stop hold control may not
operate.)
 Long, descending slopes (to
maintain distance between vehicles,
the system automatically and
continuously applies the brakes
which could result in the loss of
brake power.)
 Slopes with a steep gradient (The
vehicle ahead may not be detected
correctly, your vehicle may slide
while stopped by the stop hold
control, and it may accelerate
suddenly after it starts moving.)
 Two-wheeled vehicles such as
motorcycles or bicycles are ahead.
For safety purposes, switch the MRCC
with Stop & Go function system off
when it is not being used.
Leaving the MRCC with Stop & Go
function system turned on when it is
not in use is dangerous as it could
operate unexpectedly, resulting in an
accident.

distance from the vehicle ahead.
Additionally, keep a safe distance from
the vehicles behind you.
