Parking Sensor System (Mazda Connect (Type B))

*

The parking sensors use ultrasonic sensors which detect obstructions around the vehicle
when the vehicle is driven at low speeds, such as during garage or parallel parking, and a
buzzer sound and detection indicator notify the driver of the approximate distance from the
vehicle to the surrounding obstruction.

WARNING

Do not rely completely on the parking sensor system and be sure to confirm the safety around
your vehicle visually when driving:

This system can assist the driver in operating the vehicle in the forward and backward
directions while parking. The detection ranges of the sensors are limited, therefore, driving the
vehicle while relying only on the system may cause an accident. Always confirm the safety
around your vehicle visually when driving.

NOTE



Do not install any accessories within the detection ranges of the sensors. It may affect the
system operation.



Depending on the type of obstruction and the surrounding conditions, the detection range
of a sensor may narrow, or the sensors may not be able to detect obstructions.



The system may not operate normally under the following conditions:



Mud, ice, or snow is adhering to the sensor area (Returns to normal operation when
removed).



The sensor area is frozen (Returns to normal operation when the ice is thawed).



The sensor is covered by a hand.



The sensor is excessively shocked.



The vehicle is excessively tilted.



Under extremely hot or cold weather conditions.



The vehicle is driven on bumps, inclines, gravel, or grass covered roads.
