When Driving
i-ACTIVSENSE
WARNING
Always confirm the safety of the area
around the vehicle with the mirrors
and directly with your eyes when
driving:
The 360°View Monitor is an auxiliary
device which assists the driver in
checking the safety of the area around
the vehicle.
The shooting range of the cameras and
detection range of the sensors are
limited. For example, the areas in black
at the front and rear of the vehicle
image and the seams where each of
the camera images merge are blind
spots where an obstruction may not be
visible. In addition, the extended
vehicle width lines and projected
vehicle path lines are only to be used
as references, and the images on the
screen may differ from the actual
conditions.
CAUTION
Do not use the 360°View Monitor
under any of the following
conditions.
Icy or snow-covered roads.
Tire chains or a temporary spare
tire is installed.
The front or rear doors are not fully
closed.
The vehicle is on a road incline.
The door mirrors are retracted.
Do not hit the front/rear camera,
front/rear bumper, and door mirrors
forcefully. The camera position or
installation angle may shift.
The cameras are waterproof. Do not
disassemble, modify, or remove a
camera.

The camera cover is made of hard
plastic, therefore do not apply oil
film remover, organic solvents, wax,
or coating agents. If any such agent
gets on the camera cover, wipe it off
using a soft cloth immediately.
Do not rub the camera lens
forcefully, or clean it with an abrasive
or hard brush. Otherwise, it could
scratch the camera lens and
negatively affect the images.
Consult an Authorized Mazda Dealer
for repair, painting, or replacement
of the front/rear camera, front/rear
bumper and door mirrors.
Heed the following cautions to
assure that the 360°View Monitor
operates normally.
Do not modify the vehicle
suspensions or lower/raise the
vehicle body, or both.
Always use tires of the specified
type and size for the front and rear
wheels. Consult an Authorized
Mazda Dealer for tire replacement.
When the display is cold, images
may leave trails or the screen might
be darker than usual, making it
difficult to check the vehicle
surroundings. Always confirm the
safety at the front and around the
vehicle visually when driving.
