Do not get out of the vehicle while

the stop hold control is operating:

Getting out of the vehicle while the

stop hold control is operating is

dangerous as the vehicle may move

unexpectedly and result in an accident.

Before getting out of the vehicle,

switch the MRCC with Stop & Go

function system o

, shift the selector

lever to the P position, and apply the

parking brake.

CAUTION

If your vehicle is towed or you are

towing something, switch the MRCC

with Stop & Go function system o

to prevent an unexpected operation.

Turn the system o

 when the vehicle

is running on a chassis roller.

NOTE

The MRCC with Stop & Go function

system does not detect the following

as physical objects.

Vehicles approaching in the

opposite direction

Pedestrians

Stationary objects (stopped

vehicles, obstructions)

If a vehicle ahead is traveling at an

extremely low speed, the system may

not detect it correctly.

If there is a structure on the road or

an object (such as a monorail) at a

low height o

 the ground in front of

the vehicle, the system may operate.

Therefore, do not use the MRCC

with Stop & Go function.

Do not use the MRCC with Stop &

Go function system under conditions

in which close proximity warnings

are frequently activated.

During headway control travel, the

system accelerates and decelerates

your vehicle in conjunction with the

speed of the vehicle ahead.

However, if it is necessary to

accelerate for a lane change or if the

vehicle ahead brakes suddenly

causing you to close in on the vehicle

rapidly, accelerate using the

accelerator pedal or decelerate using

the brake pedal depending on the

conditions.

While the MRCC with Stop & Go

function system is in use, it does not

cancel even if the selector lever is

operated and any intended engine

braking does not occur. If

deceleration is required, lower the

set speed or depress the brake

pedal.

While braking by the MRCC with

Stop & Go function control is

operating, you might hear an

operation sound, however, this does

not indicate a problem.

The brake lights turn on while

braking by the MRCC with Stop &

Go function control is operating,

however, they may not turn on while

the vehicle is on a down slope at the

set vehicle speed or traveling at a

constant speed and following a

vehicle ahead.

Stop the headway control function to

switch the system to the cruise

control function.

Refer to the Settings section in the

Mazda Connect Owner's Manual.
