Laser Sensor (Front)

*

Your vehicle is equipped with a laser sensor (front). The laser sensor (front) is positioned 

near the rearview mirror and used by the following systems.



 Smart Brake Support (SBS)



 Smart City Brake Support (SCBS)

CAUTION

Heed the following precautions to assure correct operation of the system.



  Keep the windshield clean at all times.



  Do not apply stickers to the surface of the windshield (including transparent stickers).



  If cracks or damage caused by flying gravel or debris is visible near the laser sensor 

(front), stop using the system immediately and have your vehicle inspected by an 

Authorized Mazda Dealer.

  Refer to the Personalization Features on page 9-11 on how to turn off the system.



  Do not apply a coating agent to the windshield.



  When replacing the windshield wipers or windshield, consult an Authorized Mazda 

Dealer.



  Never remove the sensor.



  A removed sensor will not meet the conditions for a class 1M laser under the IEC 

60825-1 specification and therefore eye safety cannot be assured.



  Do not peer into the sensor using optical instruments with a magnification function 

such as magnifying glasses, and microscopic and objective lenses within a distance of 

100 mm (3.94 in) from the sensor.
