Mazda Radar Cruise Control

MAZDA RADAR CRUISE CONTROL (MRCC) SYSTEM (if equipped)

The MRCC system maintains vehicle speed and following distance using 
a radar sensor to detect a vehicle ahead. The driver simply presets the 
vehicle speed between 19 mph and 90 mph and the system will maintain a 
safe following distance without having to turn the cruise control off. 

Setting the MRCC

When the ON switch is pushed, 
the vehicle speed and the distance 
between vehicles while in headway 
control can be set. The MRCC 
indication is shown in the display of 
the instrument cluster.

The system operates in two modes, Constant Speed and Headway Control modes:

Constant Speed Mode

  

When no vehicle is detected ahead,  

the driver’s set speed is maintained.

Headway Control Mode

  

When a vehicle is detected ahead,  

a distance between your vehicle and  

the vehicle ahead is maintained.

NOTE:

 

The radar for the MRCC is 

located behind the Mazda emblem in 

the grill. Keep this area clean to avoid 

the system not working properly.
