The vehicle is driven on bumps, inclines, gravel, or grass covered roads.
Anything which generates ultrasound is near the vehicle, such as another vehicle's
horn, the engine sound of a motorcycle, the air brake sound of a large-sized vehicle, or
another vehicle's sensors.
The vehicle is driven in heavy rain or in road conditions causing water-splash.
A commercially-available fender pole or an antenna for a radio transmitter is installed
to the vehicle.
The vehicle is moving towards a tall or square curbstone.
An obstruction is too close to the sensor.
Obstructions under the bumper may not be detected. Obstructions that are lower than the
bumper or thin which may have been initially detected may no longer be detected as the
vehicle approaches more closely to the obstruction.
The following types of obstructions may not be detected:
Thin objects such as wire or rope
Things which absorb sonic waves easily such as cotton or snow
Angular shaped objects
Very tall objects, and those which are wide at the top
Small, short objects
Always have the system inspected at an Authorized Mazda Dealer if any shock is applied
to the bumpers, even in a minor accident. If the sensors are deviated, they cannot detect
obstructions.
(With front sensor and front corner sensor)
The system may have a malfunction if the beep does not operate or the indicator light
does not illuminate when the park assist sensors switch is turned on. Consult an
Authorized Mazda Dealer.
(Without front sensor an d front corner sensor)
The system may have a malfunction if the be ep does not operate. Consult an Authorized
Mazda Dealer.
(With front sensor and front corner sensor)
The system may have a malfunction if the beep sound which indicates a system
malfunction is heard and the i ndicator light flashes. Consult an Authorized Mazda Dealer.
The beeper which indicates a system malf unction may not be heard if the ambient
temperature is extremely cold, or mud, ice, or snow adheres to the sensor area. Remove
any foreign material from the sensor area.
When installing a trailer hitch, consult an Authorized Mazda Dealer.

Rear Corner Sensor The selector lever is in rever
se (R), and the vehicle speed is about 10 km/h (6 mph)
or less.
▼ Obstruction Detection Indication
The position of a sensor which has detected an obstruction is i
ndicated. The gauge
illuminates in different areas depending on the distance to an obstruction detected by the
sensor.
As the vehicle approaches closer to an obstruction, the zone in the gauge closer to the
vehicle illuminates.
