CLOSE PROXIMITY WARNING

While traveling in headway control, if your vehicle rapidly 

closes in on a vehicle ahead because the other driver applied the brakes 

suddenly, a 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 safe distance from the vehicle ahead. 

Additionally, always keep a safe distance from the vehicles behind you.

When the ON switch is pushed continuously for about two seconds while 

the Mazda Radar Cruise Control (MRCC) system is turned on, the system 

is switched to conventional cruise control function.
The Mazda Radar Cruise Control (MRCC) indicator light (green) in the 

instrument cluster turns off and “Radar Cruise Control deactivated” 

message is displayed in the Multi-information Display at the same time.
