Cancelling Operation of Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM)
The BSM system can be set to inoperable.
Refer to Safety Equipment (Search).
When the BSM is set to inoperable, the BSM and Rear Cross Traffic Alert (RCTA) systems are turned off and the BSM OFF indicator light in the instrument cluster turns on.

When the ignition is switched OFF, the system status before it was turned off is maintained. For example, if the ignition is switched OFF while the BSM and Rear Cross Traffic Alert (RCTA) systems are operational, the BSM and Rear Cross Traffic Alert (RCTA) systems remain operational the next time the ignition is switched ON.
Mazda Radar Cruise Control with Stop & Go function (MRCC with Stop & Go function) Display Indication
The MRCC with Stop & Go function setting status and operation conditions are indicated on the multi-information display and the active driving display.
Instrument cluster (Type A)

Instrument cluster (Type B)

If there is a problem with the MRCC with Stop & Go function system, a message is displayed on the multi-information display. Check the centre display to verify the problem and then have your vehicle inspected by an expert repairer, we recommend an Authorised Mazda Repairer.

Lane-keep Assist System (LAS) & Lane Departure Warning System (LDWS)
The LAS & LDWS alerts the driver that the vehicle may be deviating from its lane and it provides steering assistance to help the driver stay within the vehicle lanes.
The Forward Sensing Camera (FSC) detects the white lines (yellow lines) of the vehicle lane in which the vehicle is travelling and if the system determines that the vehicle may deviate from its lane, it operates the electric power steering to assist the driver's steering operation. The system also alerts the driver by activating a lane departure warning sound, vibrating the steering wheel, and indicating an alert in the display. Use the system when you drive the vehicle on roads with white (yellow) lines such as expressways and highways.
Refer to Forward Sensing Camera (FSC) (Search).
The steering wheel operation of the LAS & LDWS has “Late” and “Early” steering assist timing settings.
For the “Late” setting, the system assists the driver's steering operation if there is the possibility of the vehicle deviating from its lane.
For the “Early” setting, the system assists the driver's steering operation constantly so that the vehicle stays near the centre of the vehicle lane.
“Late” and “Early” timing can be changed (timing at which steering operation assist is provided) by changing the setting.
Refer to Safety Equipment (Search).

Do not rely completely on the LAS & LDWS:
-
The LAS & LDWS is not an automatic driving system. In addition, the system is not designed to compensate for a driver's lack of caution, and over-reliance on the system could lead to an accident.
-
The detection ability of the LAS & LDWS is limited. Always stay on course using the steering wheel and drive with care.
Do not use the LAS & LDWS in the following cases:
The system may not operate adequately according to the actual driving conditions, resulting in an accident.
-
Driving on roads with tight curves.
-
Driving under bad weather conditions (rain, fog, and snow).
-
Slippery roads such as ice or snow-bound roads.
-
Roads with heavy traffic and insufficient distance between vehicles.
-
Roads with no white (yellow) lane lines.
-
Narrow roads resulting from road construction or lane closures.
-
The vehicle is driven on a temporary lane or section with a closed lane resulting from road construction where there may be multiple white (yellow) lane lines or they are interrupted.
-
Vehicle is driven on roads other than expressways and highways.
-
The tyre pressures are not adjusted to the specified pressure.
-
Tyres of a different specified size are used, such as an emergency spare tyre.
Heed the following cautions so that the LAS & LDWS can operate normally.
-
Do not modify the suspensions.
-
Always use wheels of the specified type and size for the front and rear wheels. Consult an expert repairer, we recommend an Authorised Mazda Repairer for tyre replacement.
-
When the direction indicator lever is operated for a lane change, the LAS & LDWS is automatically disabled. The LAS & LDWS becomes operational again when the direction indicator lever is returned and the system detects white (yellow) lane lines while the vehicle is being driven normally within its vehicle lane.
-
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.
-
If 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 conventional tyres are equipped.
-
Vehicle is driven on an intersection or junction, or on a forked road.
-
The white (yellow) lane lines are less visible because of dirt or fading/patchiness.
-
A vehicle in front of your vehicle is running near a white (yellow) lane line making it less visible.
-
A white (yellow) lane line is less visible because of bad weather (rain, fog, or snow).
-
The vehicle is driven on a temporary lane or section with a closed lane resulting from construction where there may be multiple white (yellow) lane lines or they are interrupted.
-
A misleading line is picked up on the road such as a temporary line for construction, or because of shade, lingering snow, or grooves filled with water.
-
The 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.

There is a malfunction in the power steering.
-
There is a malfunction in the TCS.
