NOTE
•If a vehicle ahead is detected while travel ling at a constant speed, the vehicle-ahead
indication is displayed and headway control is performed. Additionally, when a vehicle
ahead is no longer detected, the vehicle-ahead indication turns off and the system
switches back to travel at constant speed.
•The lowest possible speed which can be set on the MRCC system is 30 km/h (19 mph).
•Headway control is not possible if the vehicle ahead is driving faster than your vehicle's

NOTE
If the gears are not shifted up/down even t hough the shift-up/down request indication is
displayed, load will be applied to the engine and the MRCC system may be automatically
cancelled or engine damage could occur.
▼ Cruise Control Function
While this function is operating, the
headway control operation is cancelled
and only the cruise control function
operates.
The vehicle speed can be set more than
about 25 km/h (16 mph).
Use the cruise c
ontrol function on
expressways and other highways which do
not require a lot of repeated acceleration
and deceleration.
WA R N I N G
Do not use the cruise control function in
the following locations:
Otherwise, it could lead to an accident.
 Roads with sharp curves and where
vehicle traffic is heavy and there is
insufficient space between vehicles.
(Driving under these conditions using the
cruise control function is not possible)
 Steep down slopes (Set speed may be
exceeded because sufficient engine
braking cannot be applied)
 Slippery roads such as ice or snow-bound
roads (Tyres could spin causing you to
lose vehicle control)

Always drive carefully:
The warnings and brake control will not
operate after the headway control function
is cancelled and the system is switched to
only the cruise control function. Depress
the brake pedal to decelerate according to
the surrounding conditions while keeping a
safer distance from the vehicle ahead and
always driving carefully.
Switching to cruise control function
When the MODE switch is pressed until
the system switches to the cruise main
indication (white) while the MRCC
system is turned on, the system switches to
the cruise control function.
When the system switches to the cruise
control function, the indicator and
multi-information display notify the driver
as follows:
•The MRCC set indication (green) or the
MRCC main indication (white) is turned
off, and the cruis e main indication
(white) is turned on.
•A message is displayed in the
multi-information display.
WA R N I N G
Always turn off the cruise control function
when it is not in use:
Leaving the cruise control function turned
on when it is not in use is dangerous as it
could operate unexpectedly, resulting in an
accident.
How to set the speed
Adjust the system to the desired vehicle
speed using the accelerator pedal.
When the SET or SET switch is
pressed, the cruise set indication (green) is
turned on and headway control begins.
NOTE
•The system may not be able to maintain
the set speed constantly depending on
driving conditions such as steep up or
down slopes.
•The speed will continue increasing while
the SET
switch is pressed and held.
The speed will continue decreasing
while the SET
switch is pressed and
held.
How to increase the set speed
The set speed can be increased using the
following operations:
To increase speed using the SET
switch
Press and hold the SET
switch and
release the switch a t the desired speed.
The set speed can be adjusted
incrementally (1 km/h (1 mph)
increments) by press ing the switch and
releasing it immediately. For example, if
the switch is pressed 4 times, the set speed
increases by about 4 km/h (4 mph).
To increase speed using accelerator
pedal
Depress the accelerator pedal and press the
SET
or SET switch at t he desired
speed.
If the switch is not operated, the system
returns to the set speed after you release
your foot from the accelerator pedal.

RES switch is pressed while the vehicle
speed is 25 km/h (16 mph) or higher, the
speed returns to the original set speed.
•The OFF/CAN switch is pressed once.
•The brake pedal is depressed.
•The parking brake is applied.
(Manual transaxle)
•The clutch pedal is depressed.
•The shift lever is shifted to neutral

Mazda Radar Cruise Control with Stop & Go function
(MRCC with Stop & Go functi on) (Automatic Transaxle
except Taiwan)
*
The MRCC with Stop & Go function system is designed to maintain headway control*1
with a vehicle ahead according to your vehicle's speed using a radar sensor (front) 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 Mazda Radar Cr uise Control (MRCC) system.
Additionally, if your vehicle s tarts 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.
If the vehicle ahead stops while you are following behind it, your vehicle will stop and be
held stopped automatically (stop hold control), and headway con trol will resume when you
resume driving the vehicle such a s by pressing the RES switch.
Also refer to the following before using the MRCC with Stop & G o function.
•i-stop (page 4-12)
•AUTOHOLD (page 4-84)
•Forward Sensing Camera (FSC) (page 4-196)
•Radar sensor (front) (page 4-201)
WA R N I N G
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 weat her 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 sudd enly 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 safer 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.)
