WA R N I N G
Always check the traffic signs visually while driving.
The TSR helps prevent the driver from overlookin g traffic signs and provides support for safer
driving. Depending on the weath er conditions or problems with
traffic signs, a
traffic sign
may not be recognised or a traffic sign different from the actual traffic sign may be displayed.
Always make it your responsibility as a driver to check the actual
traffic signs. Otherwise, it
could result in an accident.
NOTE
•The TSR does not operate if there is a malf unction in the Forward Sensing Camera (FSC).
•Under the following conditions, the TSR may not operate normally.
•An object placed on the instrument panel is reflected in the windscreen and picked up
by the camera.
•Heavy luggage is loaded in the luggage compartment or on the rear seat and the
vehicle is tilted.
•The tyre pressures are not adjusted to the specified pressure.
•Tyres other than standard tyres are equipped.
•The vehicle is driven on the ramp and surrounding area to or from a rest area or a
tollgate on a highway.
•When surrounding brightness suddenly changes such as when entering or exiting a
tunnel.
•The illumination of the headlights is weakened because of dirt or the optical axis is
deviated.
•The windscreen is dirty or foggy.
•The windscreen and camera are fogged (water droplets).
•Strong light is directed at the front of the vehicle (such as backlight or high-beam
headlights of on-coming vehicles).
•The vehicle is making a sharp turn.
•Strong light reflects off the road.
•A traffic sign is in a position which makes it difficult to reflect the light from the
vehicle's headlights, such as when the vehicle is driven at night or in a tunnel.
•The vehicle is driven under weather conditions such as rain, fog, or snow.
•The stored map data for the navigation system is not current.
•A traffic sign is obscured by mud or snow.
•A traffic sign is concealed by trees or a vehicle.

•If the steering wheel, accelerator pedal, or brake pedal is operated abruptly and the
vehicle moves close to a white (yellow) line, the system determines that the driver is
making a lane change and the LAS&LDWS operation is temporarily cancelled. The
LAS&LDWS becomes operational again when the system detects white (yellow) lane lines
while the vehicle is being driven normally within its vehicle lane.
•If the vehicle deviates from its lane repeatedly within a short period of time, the
LAS&LDWS may not operate.
•When white (yellow) lane lines are not detected, the LAS&LDWS does not operate.
•Under the following conditions, the LAS&LDWS may not be able to detect white (yellow)
lane lines correctly and it may not operate normally.

Operating Tips
•Operate the air-conditioning system
with the engine running.
•To prevent the battery from being
discharged, do not leave the fan control
dial/switch on for a long period of time
with the ignition switched ON when the
engine is not running.
•(With i-stop)
The airflow amount may decrease
slightly while the i-stop function is
operating.
•Clear all obstructions such as leaves,
snow and ice from the bonnet and the air
inlet in the cowl grille to improve the
system efficiency.
•Use the air-conditioning system to defog
the windows and dehumidify the air.
•The recirculate mode should be used
when driving through tunnels or while
in a traffic jam, or when you would like
to shut off outside air for quick cooling
of the interior.
•Use the outside air position for
ventilation or windscreen defrosting.
•If the vehicle has been parked in direct
sunlight during hot weather, open the
windows to let warm air escape, then
run the air-conditioning system.
•Run the air cond itioner about 10
minutes at least once a month to keep
internal parts lubricated.
•Have the air conditioner checked before
the weather gets hot . Lack of refrigerant
may make the air conditioner less
efficient.
The refrigerant specifications are
indicated on a label attached to the
inside of the engine compartment. If the
wrong type of refrigerant is used, it
could result in a ser ious malfunction of
the air conditioner. Consult a
professional, government certified
repairer for the inspection or repair
because a special device is required for
the air conditi oner maintenance.
For details, consult an expert repairer,
we recommend an Authorised Mazda
Repairer.
