Do not use the LAS&LDWS in the following cases:

The system may not operate adequately according to the actual driving conditions, resulting
in an accident.

Driving on roads with tight curves.

Driving under bad weather conditions (rain, fog, and snow).

Slippery roads such as ice or snow-bound roads.

Roads with heavy traffic and insufficient distance between vehicles.

Roads with no white (yellow) lane lines.

Narrow roads resulting from road construction or lane closures.

The vehicle is driven on a temporary lane or section with a closed lane resulting from road
construction where there may be multiple white (yellow) lane lines or they are interrupted.

Vehicle is driven on roads other than expressways and highways.

The tire pressures are not adjusted to the specified pressure.

Tires of a different specified size are used, such as an emergency spare tire.

CAUTION

Heed the following cautions so that the LAS&LDWS can operate normally.

Do not modify the suspensions.

Always use wheels of the specified type and size for the front and rear wheels. Consult an
Authorized Mazda Dealer for tire replacement.

NOTE

When the turn signal lever is operated for a lane change, the LAS&LDWS is
automatically disabled. The LAS&LDWS becomes operational again when the turn signal
lever is returned and the system detects white (yellow) lane lines while the vehicle is being
driven normally within its vehicle lane.

If the steering wheel, accelerator pedal, or brake pedal is operated abruptly and the
vehicle moves close to a white (yellow) line, the system determines that the driver is
making a lane change and the LAS&LDWS operation is temporarily canceled. The
LAS&LDWS becomes operational again when the system detects white (yellow) lane lines
while the vehicle is being driven normally within its vehicle lane.

If the vehicle deviates from its lane repeatedly within a short period of time, the
LAS&LDWS may not operate.

When white (yellow) lane lines are not detected, the LAS&LDWS does not operate.

Under the following conditions, the LAS&LDWS may not be able to detect white (yellow)
lane lines correctly and it may not operate normally.

If an object placed on the dashboard is reflected in the windshield and picked up by the
camera.
