Blind Spot Monitoring
(BSM)
*
▼Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM)
The BSM is designed to assist the driver
in checking the area to the rear of the
vehicle on both sides during lane
changes by notifying the driver of the
presence of vehicles approaching from
the rear in an adjacent lane.
BSM operation
The BSM detects vehicles approaching
from the rear while traveling in the
forward direction at a speed of 10
km/h (6.3 mph) or faster and notifies
the driver by turning on the BSM
warning indicator light and displaying
the vehicle detection screen.
If the turn signal lever is operated to
signal a turn in the direction in which
the BSM warning indicator light is
illuminated while the approaching
vehicle is detected, the BSM
notifies
the driver of possible danger flashing
on the BSM warning indicator light,
and by activating the warning sound
and the warning screen indicator
display.
The detection area on this system
covers the driving lanes on both sides
of the vehicle and from the rear part of
the front doors to about 50 m (164 ft)
behind the vehicle.

2. Detection areas
WARNING
Always check the surrounding area
visually before making an actual lane
change:
The system is only designed to assist
you in checking for vehicles at your rear
when making a lane change. Due to
certain limitations with the operation
of this system, the BSM warning
indicator light, the warning sound and
the warning screen indicator display
may not activate or they might be
delayed even though a vehicle is in an
adjacent driving lane. Always make it
your responsibility as a driver to check
the rear.
NOTE
The BSM will operate when all of the
following conditions are met:
The ignition is switched ON.The i-ACTIVSENSE warning
indication/warning light in the
instrument cluster is turned off.
The vehicle speed is about 10
km/h (6.3 mph) or faster.
The BSM will not operate under the
following circumstances.
The vehicle speed falls below
about 10 km/h (6.3 mph) even
though the i-ACTIVSENSE warning
indication/warning light is turned
off.
The shift lever (manual
transmission)/selector lever
(automatic transmission) is shifted
to reverse (R) and the vehicle is
reversing.
The turning radius is small (making
a sharp turn, turning at
intersections).
In the following cases, the
i-ACTIVSENSE warning indication/
warning light turns on and operation
of the system is stopped. If the
i-ACTIVSENSE warning indication/
warning light remains illuminated,
have the vehicle inspected at an
Authorized Mazda Dealer as soon as
possible.
Some problem with the system
including the BSM warning
indicator lights is detected.
A large deviation in the installation
position of a rear side radar sensor
on the vehicle has occurred.
There is a large accumulation of
snow or ice on the rear bumper
near a rear side radar sensor.
Remove any snow, ice or mud on
the rear bumper.
Driving on snow-covered roads for
long periods.
The temperature near the rear side
radar sensor becomes extremely
hot due to driving for long periods
on slopes during the summer.
The battery voltage has decreased.Under the following conditions, the
rear side radar sensor cannot detect
target objects or it may be difficult to
detect them.
The rear bumper around the rear
side radar sensor is deformed.
Radio wave interference from a
radar sensor equipped on a nearby
vehicle.
The approaching vehicle is any of
the following shapes.
a) The size of the vehicle body is
extremely small.
b) The vehicle height is extremely
low or high.

A vehicle is in the detection area at
the rear in an adjacent driving lane
but it does not approach. The BSM
determines the condition based on
radar detection data.
A vehicle is traveling alongside
your vehicle at nearly the same
speed for an extended period of
time.
Vehicles approaching in the
opposite direction.
A vehicle in an adjacent driving
lane is attempting to pass your
vehicle.
A vehicle is in an adjacent lane on
a road with extremely wide driving
lanes. The detection area of the
rear side radar sensor is set at the
road width of expressways.
In the following case, the flashing of
the BSM warning indicator light, and
the activation of the warning sound
and the warning screen indicator
display may not occur or they may be
delayed.
A vehicle makes a lane change
from a driving lane two lanes over
to an adjacent lane.
Driving on steep slopes.Crossing the summit of a hill or
mountain pass.
When there is a difference in the
height between your driving lane
and the adjacent lane.
Directly after the BSM system
becomes operable by changing the
setting.
If the road width is extremely
narrow, vehicles two lanes over may
be detected. The detection area of
the rear side radar sensor is set
according to the road width of
expressways.
The BSM warning indicator light may
turn on and the vehicle detection
screen may be displayed in the
display in reaction to stationary
objects (guardrails, tunnels,
sidewalls, and parked vehicles) on
the road or the roadside.
1. Objects such as guardrails and concrete walls running alongside
the vehicle.

The vehicle is driven on roads with
lane lines other than white (yellow)
lines, such as an expressway.

Do not get out of the vehicle while
the stop hold control is operating.
(Automatic transmission vehicle)
Getting out of the vehicle while the
stop hold control is operating is
dangerous as the vehicle may move
unexpectedly and result in an accident.
Before getting out of the vehicle,
switch the TJA off, apply the parking
brake, and then shift the selector lever
to the P position.

CAUTION
Turn the system off when the vehicle is
running on a chassis roller.
Heed the following cautions so that
the TJA can operate normally.
 Turn the system off when the vehicle
is running on a chassis roller.
 Do not modify the vehicle's
suspensions.
 Always use wheels of the specified
size for the front and rear wheels.
Consult an Authorized Mazda Dealer
for tire replacement.

NOTE
The headway control does not detect
the following as physical objects.
Vehicles approaching in the
opposite direction
Pe d e s t r i a n sStationary objects (stopped
vehicles, obstructions)
If a vehicle ahead is traveling at an
extremely low speed, the system may
not detect it correctly.
If there is a structure on the road or
an object (such as a monorail) at a
low height off the ground in front of
the vehicle, the system may operate.
Therefore, do not use the TJA.
Do not use the TJA under conditions
in which close proximity warnings
are frequently activated.
If it is necessary to accelerate for a
lane change or the vehicle ahead
brakes suddenly causing you to close
in on the vehicle rapidly, accelerate
using the accelerator pedal or
decelerate using the brake pedal
depending on the conditions.
While the TJA is in use, any intended
engine braking does not occur even
if you shift the shift lever (manual
transmission) or the selector lever
(automatic transmission). If
deceleration is required, lower the
vehicle speed setting or depress the
brake pedal.
While braking by the TJA control is
operating , you might hear an
operation sound, however, this does
not indicate a problem.
The brake lights turn on while
braking by the TJA control is
operating , however, they may not
turn on while the vehicle is on a
down slope at the set vehicle speed
or traveling at a constant speed and
following a vehicle ahead.
Under the following conditions, the
TJA may not be able to detect white
(yellow) lines or vehicles ahead
correctly and the TJA may not
operate normally.
The forward sensing camera (FSC)
cannot recognize the area in front
of the vehicle due to soiling or fog.
