Mazda Radar Cruise
Control (MRCC) (Manual
Transmission)
*
▼Mazda Radar Cruise Control
(MRCC)
The MRCC 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
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.
Also refer to the following before using
the MRCC.
Front radar sensor (page 4-202)
WARNING
Do not rely completely on the MRCC:
The MRCC 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, 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 system in the
following locations. Using the MRCC
system at the following locations may
result in an unexpected accident:
 General roads other than highways
(Driving under these conditions
using the MRCC 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 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.)

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.

Smart Brake Support(SBS)
*
▼Smart Brake Support (SBS)
The SBS alerts the driver of a possible
collision using the warning indications
in the display and a warning sound if
the front radar sensor and Forward
Sensing Camera (FSC) determine that
there is the possibility of a collision
with a vehicle ahead, pedestrian, or a
bicycle. Furthermore, if a collision is
unavoidable, the automatic brake
control is performed to reduce damage
in the event of a collision. In addition,
when the driver de
presses the brake
pedal, the brakes are applied firmly
and quickly to assist.
(Vehicles with Driver Monitoring
(DM))
When the SBS determines that the
driver is not paying attention to the
road using the driver monitoring
camera and it determines that there is
the possibility of a collision with an
obstruction, the SBS activates the
collision warning earlier than normal.
WARNING
Do not rely completely on the SBS:
The SBS is only designed to reduce
damage in the event of a collision.
The ability to detect obstructions is
limited depending on the obstructions,
weather conditions, or traffic
conditions. Over reliance on the
system leading to the accelerator pedal
or brake pedal being mistakenly
operated could result in an accident.
CAUTION
In the following cases, turn the system
off to prevent an unexpected
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.

Smart Brake Support
[Rear] (SBS-R)
*
▼Smart Brake Support [Rear]
(SBS-R)
The SBS-R is a system which is
designed to reduce damage in the
event of a collision by operating the
brake control (SBS brake) when the
system’s sensors detect an obstruction
at the rear of the vehicle while driving
at a speed of about 2 to 8 km/h (2 to
4 mph) and the system determines that
a collision is unavoidable.
WARNING
Do not rely completely on the SBS-R
system:

The
SBS-R 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.
 To assure the correct operation of
the SBS-R, heed the following
cautions.
When Driving
i-ACTIVSENSE
*Some models.4-157
CX-30_8JP5-EA-20K_Edition1_new 2020-7-22 15:50:09

Do not apply a sticker to a rear
ultrasonic sensor and rear camera.
Otherwise, the rear ultrasonic
sensor and rear camera may not be
able to detect vehicles or
obstructions which could result in
an accident.
 Do not disassemble a rear
ultrasonic sensor and rear camera.
 If cracks or damage caused by
flying gravel or debris is visible
around a rear ultrasonic sensor and
rear camera, stop using the SBS-R
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] (SBS-R) System
Operation on page 4-160.
 Consult an Authorized Mazda
Dealer for rear bumper removal.
Do not modify the suspension:
If the vehicle height or inclination is
changed, the SBS-R system may not
operate correctly because it cannot
detect obstructions correctly.
Do not apply a strong force to a rear
ultrasonic sensor and rear camera:
When washing the vehicle, do not
spray highly pressurized water against a
rear ultrasonic sensor 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-R system to not operate
normally, or it could operate
unnecessarily.CAUTION
 When driving
off-road in areas where
there is grass or foliage, it is
recommended that the SBS-R system
be turned off.
 Always use tires of the specified size
and the same manufacturer, brand,
and tread pattern on all 4 wheels. In
addition, do not use tires with
significantly
different wear patterns
on the same vehicle. Otherwise, the SBS-R system may not operate
normally.
 If ice or snow is stuck on the rear
ultrasonic sensor and rear camera
they may not be able to detect
obstructions correctly depending on
the conditions. In such cases, the
system may not be able to perform
controls correctly. Always drive
carefully and pay attention to the
rear of the vehicle.
NOTE
The vehicle posture changes
depending on the accelerator pedal,
brake pedal and steering wheel
operations, which could make it
difficult for the system to recognize
an obstruction, or it could facilitate
unnecessary detection. In such cases,
the SBS-R may or may not operate.
The SBS-R system will operate under
the following conditions.
The engine is running for 3 seconds
or more.
The shift lever (manual
transmission vehicle) or the
selector lever (automatic
transmission vehicle) is in the R
(reverse) position.
i-ACTIVSENSE warning indication/
warning light is not displayed in the
multi-information display.
