Smart Brake Support (SBS)í
Smart Brake Support (SBS) is a system which alerts the driver of a possible collision using
an indicator and warning sound in the instrument cluster while the vehicle is being driven
at about 15 km/h or faster (10 mph or faster) and the system's radar sensor determines that
your vehicle may hit a vehicle ahead. Furthermore, if the radar sensor determines that a
collision is unavoidable, the automatic brake control is performed to reduce damage in the
event of a collision.
In addition, when the driver depresses the brake pedal, the brakes operate more quickly to
assist the driver (vehicles with brake fluid pre-fill).
WARNING
Do not rely completely on the Smart Brake Support (SBS) system and always drive
carefully:
The Smart Brake Support (SBS) is designed to reduce damage in the event of a
collision, not avoid an accident. The ability to detect an obstruction is limited
depending on the obstruction, weather conditions, or traffic conditions. Therefore, if
the accelerator pedal or brake pedal is mistakenly operated it could result in an
accident. Always verify the safety of the surrounding area and depress the brake
pedal or accelerator pedal while keeping a safer distance from vehicles ahead or on-
coming vehicles.
CAUTION
If the vehicle is towed or you are towing something, switch the Smart Brake Support
(SBS) system off to prevent a mistaken operation.

NOTElThe Smart Brake Support (SBS) system operates when all of the following conditions are met:lThe ignition is switched ON.lThe Smart Brake Support (SBS) system is on.lThe vehicle speed is about 15 km/h or faster (10 mph or faster).lThe relative speed between your vehicle and the vehicle ahead is about 15 km/h or faster (10
mph or faster).
lThe Dynamic Stability Control (DSC) is not operating.lThe Smart Brake Support (SBS) system may not operate under the following conditions:lIf the vehicle is accelerated rapidly and it comes close to a vehicle ahead.lThe vehicle is driven at the same speed as the vehicle ahead.lThe accelerator pedal is depressed.lThe brake pedal is depressed.lThe steering wheel is being operated.lThe selector lever is being operated.lThe turn signal is being used.lWhen the vehicle ahead is not equipped with taillights or the taillights are turned off.lWhen warnings and messages, such as a dirty windshield, related to the Forward Sensing
Camera (FSC)/laser sensor (front) are being displayed in the multi-information display.
lAlthough the objects which activate the system are four-wheeled vehicles, the radar sensor could
detect the following objects, determine them to be an obstruction, and operate the Smart Brake
Support (SBS) system.
lObjects on the road at the entrance to a curve (including guardrails and snow banks).lA vehicle appears in the opposite lane while cornering or rounding a curve.lWhen crossing a narrow bridge.lWhen passing under a low gate or through a tunnel or narrow gate.lWhen entering an underground parking area.lMetal objects, bumps, or protruding objects on the road.lIf you suddenly come close to a vehicle ahead.lWhen driving in areas where there is high grass or forage.lTwo-wheeled vehicles such as motorbikes or bicycles.lPedestrians or non-metallic objects such as standing trees.lWhen the system operates, the user is notified by the multi-information display.

Radar Sensor (Front)í
Your vehicle is equipped with a radar sensor (front).
The following systems also use the radar sensor (front).
lMazda Radar Cruise Control (MRCC)lDistance Recognition Support System (DRSS)lSmart Brake Support (SBS)
The radar sensor (front) functions by detecting the radio waves reflected off a vehicle
ahead or an obstruction sent from the radar sensor.
The radar sensor (front) is mounted behind the front emblem.
Radar Sensor (Front)
If“Front radar blocked”is displayed in the multi-information display of the instrument
cluster, clean the area around the radar sensor (front).

Laser Sensor (Front)í
Your vehicle is equipped with a laser sensor (front). The laser sensor (front) is positioned
near the rearview mirror and used by the following systems.
lSmart Brake Support (SBS)lSmart City Brake Support (SCBS)
CAUTION
Heed the following precautions to assure correct operation of the system.
ØKeep the windshield clean at all times.
ØDo not apply stickers to the surface of the windshield (including transparent
stickers).
ØIf cracks or damage caused by flying gravel or debris is visible near the laser
sensor (front), stop using the system immediately and have your vehicle inspected
by an Authorized Mazda Dealer.
See the next page on how to turn off the system. Refer to Personalization Features
on page 9-10.
ØDo not apply a coating agent to the windshield.
ØWhen replacing the windshield wipers or windshield, consult an Authorized
Mazda Dealer.
ØNever remove the sensor.
ØA removed sensor will not meet the conditions for a class 1M laser under the IEC
60825-1 specification and therefore eye safety cannot be assured.
ØDo not peer into the sensor using optical instruments with a magnification
function such as magnifying glasses, and microscopic and objective lenses within
a distance of 100 mm (3.94 in) from the sensor.

qIf the traction control system
(TCS)/dynamic stability control
(DSC) indicator light illuminates
If the light stays on, the TCS, DSC or the
brake assist system may have a
malfunction and they may not operate
correctly. Take your vehicle to an
Authorized Mazda Dealer.
NOTE
lIn addition to the indicator light flashing, a
slight lugging sound will come from the
engine. This indicates that the TCS/DSC is
operating properly.
lOn slippery surfaces, such as fresh snow, it
will be impossible to achieve high rpm
when the TCS is on.
qIf the traction control system (TCS)
OFF indicator light illuminates
If the light remains illuminated and the
TCS is not switched off, take your vehicle
to an Authorized Mazda Dealer. The DSC
may have a malfunction.
qIf the low engine coolant
temperature indicator light (blue)
does not turn off
If the low engine coolant temperature
indicator light remains illuminated after
the engine has been sufficiently warmed
up, the temperature sensor could have a
malfunction. Consult an Authorized
Mazda Dealer.
qIf the turn signal/hazard warning
indicator light illuminates or flashes
at an abnormally high speed
If an indicator light flashes abnormally,
one of the turn signal bulbs may be
burned out. Consult an Authorized Mazda
Dealer.
