Smart Brake Support [Rear] (SBS-R)
The SBS-R is a system which is designed to reduce damage in the event of a
collision by operating the brake control (SBS brake) when the system's sensors
detect an obstruction at the rear of the vehicle while driving at a speed of about 2 to
8 km/h (2 to 4 mph) and the system determines that a collision is unavoidable.
Do not rely completely on the SBS-R system:
• The SBS-R system is only designed to reduce damage in the event of a
collision. Over reliance on the system leading to the accelerator pedal or
brake pedal being mistakenly operated could result in an accident.
• To assure the correct operation of the SBS-R, heed the following cautions.
• Do not apply a sticker to a rear ultrasonic sensor and rear camera.
accident.
Otherwise, the rear ultrasonic sensor and rear camera may not be able to
detect vehicles or obstructions which could result in an accident.
• Do not disassemble a rear ultrasonic sensor and rear camera.
• If cracks or damage caused by flying gravel or debris is visible around a
rear ultrasonic sensor and rear camera, stop using the SBS-R system
immediately and have your vehicle inspected by an expert repairer, we
recommend an Authorised Mazda Repairer. If the vehicle continues to
be driven with cracks or scratch marks left around an ultrasonic sensor,
the system may operate unnecessarily and cause an unexpected accident.
• Consult an expert repairer, we recommend an Authorised Mazda
Repairer for rear bumper replacement.
Do not modify the suspension:
If the vehicle height or inclination is changed, the SBS-R system may not
operate correctly because it cannot detect obstructions correctly.
