i-ACTIVSENSE

i-ACTIVSENSE

i-ACTIVSENSE is a collective term covering a series of advanced safety and driver support systems.

i-ACTIVSENSE consists of two technologies, active safety and pre-crash safety technologies.

Warnings and Cautions for Using the i-ACTIVSENSE

 


Do not rely completely on the i-ACTIVSENSE system.

The i-ACTIVSENSE system is designed to assist the driver in safer driving by reducing the load on the driver and helping to avert collisions or reduce their severity.

Because each i-ACTIVSENSE system has its limitations, always drive carefully.

Active Safety Technology

Active safety technology supports driver's safer driving and helps to prevent accidents from occurring.

Active safety technology includes driver awareness support systems and driving support systems.

Driver Awareness Support Systems

Driver awareness support systems assist in the recognition of roads, signs, vehicle surroundings, and driver fatigue.

Driver awareness support systems include the following systems.

Nighttime visibility

Left/right side and rear detection

Road sign recognition

Inter-vehicle distance recognition

Rear obstruction detection when leaving a parking space

Driver fatigue detection

Driver Support Systems

Driver support systems assist in acceleration, deceleration, and steering operations while driving.

Driver support systems include the following systems.

Inter-vehicle distance

Pre-crash Safety Technology

Pre-crash safety technology is designed to assist in collision avoidance in situations where it is difficult for the driver to avert it, and to reduce damage from a collision if it occurs.

Pre-crash safety technology includes the following systems.

Collision avoidance support and damage reduction

Collision damage reduction

i-ACTIVSENSE Status Symbol (Warning/Risk Avoidance Support System)

The i-ACTIVSENSE status symbol (Warning/risk avoidance support system) indicates the operation status.

  • Lane Departure Warning System (LDWS)

  • Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM)

  • Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM) Vehicle Exit Warning

  • Traffic Sign Recognition System (TSR)

  • Distance & Speed Alert (DSA)

i-ACTIVSENSE status symbol (Warning/risk avoidance support system) (white) / (system standby status)

If all systems do not meet the operation conditions, or if any system has stopped functioning, the i-ACTIVSENSE status symbol (Warning/risk avoidance support system) (white) *1/ is displayed.

i-ACTIVSENSE status symbol (Warning/risk avoidance support system) (green) / (system operation status)

If any system meets the operation conditions, the i-ACTIVSENSE status symbol (Warning/risk avoidance support system) (green) *1/ is displayed.

 


Even if the i-ACTIVSENSE status symbol (Warning/risk avoidance support system) (green) is displayed, systems which do not meet the operation conditions will not operate.

i-ACTIVSENSE status symbol (Warning/risk avoidance support system) (amber) / (system malfunction status)

If any system has a malfunction, the i-ACTIVSENSE status symbol (Warning/risk avoidance support system) (amber) *1/ is displayed.

i-ACTIVSENSE OFF symbol (Warning/risk avoidance support system) / (system stop status)

If all systems are turned off using Mazda Connect, the i-ACTIVSENSE OFF symbol (Warning/risk avoidance support system) *1/ is displayed.

 

  1. Displays when i-ACTIVSENSE warning sound is switched off.

    Refer to How to Use the i-ACTIVSENSE mute switch (Search).

How to Use the i-ACTIVSENSE mute switch (Some Models)

When the i-ACTIVSENSE mute switch is pressed while the following systems are operating, the warning sound deactivates.

  • Lane Departure Warning System (LDWS)

  • Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM)

  • Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM) Vehicle Exit Warning

  • Traffic Sign Recognition System (TSR)

  • Rear Cross Traffic Alert (RCTA)

Press the i-ACTIVSENSE mute switch again to return to the previous operation status.

 


If the vehicle power is switched OFF with each system warning sound turned off using the i-ACTIVSENSE mute switch, each system automatically turns on the next time the vehicle power is switched ON.
