SMART BRAKE SUPPORT (SBS)

At speeds of 10 mph or higher, the Smart Brake Support (SBS) 
alerts the driver of a possible collision and attempts to reduce 

the severity of an imminent collision with the vehicle ahead. SBS 
operates when the vehicle is traveling at speeds higher than the 
range of the SMART CITY BRAKE SUPPORT (SCBS).

Partial list of operating conditions: 

•   During vehicle speeds of 10 mph or higher.

•   If the vehicle is accelerating rapidly and comes close to the  

vehicle ahead.

•   The Smart Brake Support (SBS) system has not been turned off.

The SBS system can be turned off using Safety Settings in  

MAZDA CONNECT (p. 14).

Refer to your Owner’s Manual for a complete list of SBS operating 
conditions and system details.

COLLISION WARNING

If there is the possibility of a collision with a vehicle ahead or an 
obstruction at the rear of the vehicle, a warning sound is activated 
and a warning light in the instrument cluster flashes at the same 
time as a warning indication is displayed in the Active Driving Display.

WARNING:

SBS is only a 
supplementary 
system to reduce 
damage in the 
event of a collision; 
however, the SBS 
has limitations. Do 
not rely solely on 
the SBS. Always 
keep your eyes on 
the road.
