Canceling Operation of Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM)
The BSM system can be set to inoperable.
Refer to the Settings section in the Mazda Connect Owner's Manual.
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.
Close Proximity Warning
If your vehicle rapidly closes in on the vehicle ahead because the vehicle ahead applies the brakes suddenly while you are traveling in headway control, the warning sound activates and the brake warning is indicated in the display. Always verify the safety of the surrounding area and depress the brake pedal while keeping a safer distance from the vehicle ahead. Additionally, keep a safer distance from the vehicles behind you.
In the following cases, the warnings and brakes may not operate even if your vehicle starts closing in on the vehicle ahead.
-
You are driving your vehicle at the same speed as the vehicle ahead.
-
Directly after the MRCC with Stop & Go function system has been set.
-
Directly after the accelerator pedal is released.
-
Another vehicle cuts into the driving lane.
