uuAcuraWatchTMuTraffic Jam Assist*
Driving
The system may not detect lane markings and therefore may not keep the vehicle in
the middle of the lane under certain conditions, including the followingY
■Environmental conditions
• There is little contrast between la ne lines and the roadway surface.
• Driving in bad weather (rain, fog, snow, etc.).
• Driving on a snowy or wet roadway.
• Driving into low sunlight (e.g., at dawn or dusk).
• Shadows of adjacent objects (trees, build ings, guard rails, vehicles, etc.) are
parallel to white (or yellow) lines.
• Sudden changes between light and dark, such as the entrance or exit of a tunnel
or the shadows of trees, buildings, etc.
• Driving at night or in a dark place such as a tunnel (due to low-light conditions,
lane lines or the road surface may not be illuminated).
• When the lane lines or road surface are not visible, such as when the distance to
the vehicle in front of you is extremely short or when at an intersection.
• Strong light is reflected onto the roadway.

uuAcuraWatchTMuRoad Departure Mitigation System
568
Driving
The system cancels assisting operations when you turn th e steering wheel to avoid
crossing over detected lane markings or approaching the outer edge of the
pavement (into grass or gravel border) or an oncoming vehicle.
If the system operates several times without detecting driver response, the system
beeps to alert you.
The system activates when all of the following conditions are met:
• The outer edge of the pavement is grass or gravel border.
• The vehicle is traveling between about 45 and 90 mph (72 and 145 km/h).
• The vehicle is on a straight or slightly curved road.
• The turn signals are off.
• The system makes a determination that the driver is not actively accelerating,
braking, or steering.
■How the System Activates1How the System Activates
The Road Departure Mi tigation system may
automatically shut off and the safety support
indicator (amber) co mes and stays on.
2 Indicators P. 84
The Road Departure Mitiga tion system function can
be impacted when the vehicle is:
•Driven on the inside edge of a curve, or outside of
a lane.
•Driven in a narrow lane.

Braking
Brake System
Use the parking brake to keep the vehicle stationary when parked. When the
parking brake is applied, you can manually or automatically release it.
■To apply
The electric parking brake can be applied any
time the vehicle has battery, no matter which
position the power mode is in.
Pull the electric parking brake switch up gently
and securely. u The indicator in th e switch comes on.
u The parking brake and brake system
indicator (red) comes on.
■To release
The power mode must be in ON in order to
release the electric parking brake.
1. Depress the brake pedal.
2. Press the electric parking brake switch.
u The indicator in th e switch goes off.
u The parking brake and brake system
indicator (red) goes off.
Manually releasing the parking brake using
the switch helps your ve hicle start slowly and
smoothly when facing downhill on steep hills.
■Parking Brake1 Parking Brake
You may hear the electric parking brake system
motor operating from the re ar wheel area when you
apply or release the parki ng brake. This is normal.
The brake pedal may slightly move due to the electric
parking brake system opera tion when you apply or
release the parking br ake. This is normal.
You cannot apply or release the parking brake if the
battery goes dead. 2 If the Battery Is Dead P. 694
If you pull up and hold the electric parking brake
switch while driving, the brakes on all four
wheels are applied by the VSA ® system until the
vehicle comes to a stop. The electric parking
brake then applies, and the switch should be
released.

Driving
u To confirm that the parking brake is ap plied, check if the parking brake and
brake system indicator (red) is on.
Your vehicle is equipped with disc brakes at all four wheels. A vacuum power assist
helps to reduce the effort needed on the brake pedal. The brake assist system
increases the stopping force when you depress the brake pedal hard in an
emergency situation. The an ti-lock brake system (ABS) helps you retain steering
control when braking very hard.
2 Brake Assist System P. 595
2 Anti-lock Brake System (ABS) P. 594
■Foot Brake1Foot Brake
Check the brakes after driving through deep water,
or if there is a buildup of road surface water. If
necessary, dry the brakes by lightly depressing the
pedal several times.
If you hear a continuous me tallic friction sound when
applying the brakes, this is caused by the brake wear
indicator rubbing on the brake rotor and indicates
that the brake pads need to be replaced. Have the
vehicle checked by a deal er. If you hear only an
occasional squeak or squeal when you initially apply
the brake pedal, this may be normal and caused by
high frequency vibration of the brake pads against
the rotating brake disc.
Constantly using the brake pedal while going down a
long hill builds up heat, which reduces the brake
effectiveness. Apply engine braking by taking your
foot off the accelerator pe dal and downshifting to a
lower gear/speed position. With manual transmission
use a lower gear for gr eater engine braking.
Do not rest your foot on the brake pedal while
driving, as it will lightly apply the brakes and cause
them to lose effectiveness over time and reduce pad
life. It will also conf use drivers behind you.

cause a crash resulting in serious injury or
death.
Never activate the automatic brake hold
system or rely on it to keep a vehicle from
moving when stopped on a steep hill or
slippery roads.
