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.
l
While the Mazda Radar Cruise Control (MRCC) system is in use, it does not cancel even if the
selector lever (automatic transaxle)/shift lever (manual transaxle) is operated and any intended
engine braking will not occur. If deceleration is required, lower the vehicle speed setting or
depress the brake pedal.
