360°View Monitor - Mazda CX-8 Quick Manual

When Driving
i-ACTIVSENSE
The 360° View Monitor consists of the following functions which assist the driver in
checking the area surrounding the vehicle using various indications in the centre display and
a warning sound while the vehicle is being driven at low speeds or while parking.
Top view

The top view displays an image of the vehicle from directly above on the centre display
by combining the images taken from the 4 cameras set on all sides of the vehicle. The top
view displays on the right side (left-hand drive)/left side (right-hand drive) of the screen
when the front view or rear view screen is being displayed. The top view assists the driver
in checking the area surrounding the vehicle when the vehicle is moving forward or in
reverse.
Front view/front wide view

The image from the front of the vehicle is displayed on the centre display.
The view from the front assists the driver in checking the front of the vehicle by
displaying guide lines on the displayed image taken from the front of the vehicle.
Side view

The images taken from the front left and right sides of the vehicle are displayed on the
centre display.
The side view assists the driver in checking the front sides of the vehicle by displaying
guide lines on the displayed image taken from the front left and right sides of the vehicle.
Rear view/rear wide view

The image from the rear of the vehicle is displayed on the centre display.
The image from the rear assists the driver in checking the rear of the vehicle by displaying
guide lines on the displayed image taken from the rear of the vehicle.
Parking sensor

If there are any obstructions near the vehicle while the top view/side view is displayed, an
obstruction detection indication turns on around the bumper in the centre display.
The parking sensors use ultrasonic sensors to detect obstructions around the vehicle when
the vehicle is driven at low speeds, such as during garage or parallel parking, and notifies
the driver of the approximate distance from the vehicle to the surrounding obstruction
using sound and an obstruction detection indication.
Refer to Parking Sensor System on page 4-182.
Rear Cross Traffic Alert (RCTA)

If there is the possibility of a collision with an approaching vehicle while the rear view/
rear wide view is displayed, a warning is displayed on the centre display.
The Rear Cross Traffic Alert (RCTA) uses radar sensors (rear) to detect vehicles
approaching from the rear left and right sides of the vehicle, and it assists the driver in
checking the rear of the vehicle while reversing by flashing the Blind Spot Monitoring
(BSM) warning lights and activating the warning sound.
Refer to Rear Cross Traffic Alert (RCTA) on page 4-95.
