High Beam Control System (HBC)*
The HBC determines the conditions in front of the vehicle using the Forward Sensing
Camera (FSC) while driving in darkness to automatically switch the headlights between
high and low beams.
Refer to Warning/Indicator Lights on page 4-42.
While driving the vehicle at a speed of about 30 km/h (19 mph) or more, the headlights are
switched to high beams when there are no vehicles ahead or appr oaching in the opposite
direction.
The system switches the headlights to low beams when one of the following occurs:
•The system detects a vehicle or the headlights/lights of a vehicle approaching in the
opposite direction.
•The vehicle is driven on roads lin ed with streetlamps or on roads in well-lit cities and
towns.
•The vehicle is driven at less than about 20 km/h (12 mph).
Forward Sensing
Camera (FSC)
The recognition distance of the
Forward Sensing Camera (FSC)
varies according to the
surrounding conditions.
The warning light turns on when the system has a malfunction.
Refer to Warning Indication/Warning Lights on page 4-42.
CAUTION

Do not adjust the vehicle he ight, modify the headlight units, or remove the camera,
otherwise the system will not operate normally.
 Do not rely excessively on the HBC and drive the vehicle while paying
sufficient attention to
safety. Switch the headlights between th e high beams and low beams manually if
necessary.

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 p resence of vehicles
approaching from the rear in an adjacent lane.
The BSM detects vehicles approaching from the rear while travel ling in the forward
direction at a speed of 30 km/h (19 mph) or faster and notifies the driver by turning on the
BSM warning indicator light and displaying the vehicle detectio n screen (vehicles with
multi-information display and active driving display).
If the direction indicator lever is operated to signal a turn in the direction in which the BSM
warning indicator light is illumi nated while the approaching vehicle is detected, the BSM
notifies the driver of possible danger by turning on the BSM wa rning indicator light, and by
activating the warning sound and the warning screen indicator display (vehicles with
multi-information display and active driving display).
The detection area on this system covers the driving lanes on b oth sides of the vehicle and
from the rear part of the front d oors to about 50 m (164 ft) behind the vehicle.
Detection areas
Your vehicle
WA R N I N G
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.

Traffic Sign Recognition System (TSR)*
The TSR helps prevent the driver from overlooking traffic signs , and provides support for
safer driving by displaying traffic signs on the active driving display which are recognised
by the Forward Sensing Camera (FSC) or recorded in the navigation system while the
vehicle is driven.
The TSR displays the speed limit (including auxiliary signs) , do not enter, and passing
prohibited signs (windscreen type).
If the vehicle speed exceeds the speed limit sign indicated in the active drivi ng display while
the vehicle is driven, the system notifies the driver using the indication in the active driving
display and a warning sound.
NOTE
•The TSR is not supported in some countries or regions. For information concerning the
supported countries or regions, consult an expert repairer, we recommend an Authorised
Mazda Repairer.
•The TSR operates only if the navigation system SD card (Mazda genuine) is inserted in
the SD card slot. Consult an expert repairer, we recommend an Authorised Mazda
Repairer for details.

• 10: If the vehicle speed exceeds the speed limit sign displayed in the display by 10
km/h (6.2 mph), the excessive speed warning is activated.
NOTE
•In the following cases, the excessive speed warning stops operating.
•The vehicle speed is less than the speed of the displayed speed limit sign. (If the
activation timing for the excessive speed warning is changed in the personalisation
features, the excessive speed warning stops operating when the vehicle speed is less
than the changed vehicle speed.
•A speed limit sign indication has been updated and the vehicle speed is lower than the
updated indication.
•Display of the speed limit sign stops.
•The warning indication is displayed at the same time the excessive speed warning sound
is activated if the vehicle speed exceeds the speed indicated on the speed limit sign.
Refer to Warning Sound is Activated on page 7-63.
•The TSR can recognise a speed limit sign with an auxiliary sign and display it, but it
cannot determine the indication on the auxiliary sign (such as time restrictions, turning
restrictions, end of section). Therefore, the excessive speed warning is activated when the
vehicle speed exceeds the displayed speed limit sign even if the conditions indicated on
the auxiliary sign do not apply to the vehicle.
•If the Forward Sensing Camera (FSC) incorrectly recognises the actual speed limit sign
at a lower speed, the excessive speed alarm is activated even if the vehicle is driven at the
legal speed.
