Distance Recognition
Support System (DRSS)
í
The Distance Recognition Support
System (DRSS) measures the distance
between your vehicle and a vehicle ahead
using a radar sensor (front) while the
vehicle speed is 30 km/h or faster (19
mph or faster), and indicates a
recommended distance to maintain
between the vehicles. Furthermore, if your
vehicle approaches a vehicle ahead more
closely than the appropriate distance to
maintain between the vehicles, the
vehicle-ahead indication in the multi-
information display is flashed to advise
the driver to keep a safer distance from
the vehicle ahead.
WARNING
Do not rely completely on the Distance
Recognition Support System (DRSS) and
always drive carefully:
The Distance Recognition Support
System (DRSS) provides advice for
safer driving and notifies the driver of
a recommended, safer distance to
maintain with a vehicle ahead. The
ability to detect a vehicle ahead is
limited depending on the type of
vehicle ahead, the weather
conditions, and the traffic conditions.
Therefore, if the accelerator and
brake pedals are not operated
correctly it could lead to 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.NOTE
lThe Distance Recognition Support System
(DRSS) operates when all of the following
conditions are met:
lThe ignition is switched ON.lThe Distance Recognition Support
System (DRSS) is on.
lThe selector lever is in a position other
than reverse (R).
lThe vehicle speed is 30 km/h or faster
(19 mph or faster).
lThe objects which activate the system are 4-
wheeled vehicles.
lThe Distance Recognition Support System
(DRSS) may also operate in the presence of
motorcycles and bicycles.
lThe Distance Recognition Support System
(DRSS) may not operate normally under the
following conditions:
lThe Dynamic Stability Control (DSC)
has a malfunction.
lThe vehicle ahead is traveling at an
extremely slow speed.
lThe system does not operate with the
following objects:
lVehicles approaching in the opposite
direction.
lStationary objects (stopped vehicles,
obstructions)

Mazda Radar Cruise Control (MRCC)í
The Mazda Radar Cruise Control (MRCC) system is designed to maintain headway
control*1 according to the vehicle speed using a radar sensor to detect the distance to a
vehicle ahead, and by presetting the vehicle speed between 30 km/h (19 mph) and 145
km/h (90 mph), the driver is freed from having to constantly 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 because, for example,
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.
Use the Mazda Radar Cruise Control (MRCC) system on expressways and other highways
which do not require a lot of repeated acceleration and deceleration.
