uuBefore Driving uDriving Preparation
Driving
• Be sure items placed on the floor behind the front seats cannot roll under the
seats.
u They can interfere with the driver’s ability to operate the pedals, the operation
of the seats, or the operation of the sensors under the seats.
• Everyone in the vehicle must fasten their seat belt.
2Fastening a Seat Belt P. 44
•Make sure that the indicators in the in strument panel come on when you start the
vehicle, and go off soon after.
u Always have a dealer check the vehicle if a problem is indicated.

Driving
Driving Safely with a Trailer
• Have the trailer properly serviced and keep it in good condition.
• Make sure that all the weights and load in the vehicle and trailer are within limits.
2Towing Load Limits P. 384
•When towing more than 3,500 lbs (1,588 kg), use of gasoline with a pump
octane number of 87 or higher is recommended.
u Towing performance can be affected by high altitude, high temperature, or
steep uphill.
• Securely attach the hitch, safety chains, and other necessary parts to the trailer.
• Securely store all the items in and on the trailer so that they do not shift while
driving.
• Check if the lights and brakes on the trailer are working properly.
• Check the pressures of the trailer tires.
• Turn off the Auto Idle Stop syst em using the Auto Idle Stop OFF button. The
trailer weight can affect your vehicle's br ake effectiveness if Auto Idle Stop is
activated on a hill while towing a trailer.
• Turn off the rear parking sensor system.
2 Turning off All Rear Sensors P. 487
•Drive slower than normal.
• Obey posted speed limits for vehicles with trailers.
• Use the
(D position when towing a trailer on level roads.
• Turn more slowly and with a wider turning arc than normal.
• Allow more time and distance for braking.
■Things You Need To Know Before Towing a Trailer
■Towing Speeds and Gears
■Turning and Braking
1Driving Safely with a Trailer
Operating speed when towing a trailer must not
exceed 62 mph (100 km/h).
Parking
In addition to the normal precautions, place wheel
chocks at each of the trailer’s tires.
1Towing Speeds and Gears
When towing a fixed-sided trailer (e.g., camper), do
not exceed 55 mph (88 km/h).
At higher speeds, the trai ler may sway or affect
vehicle handling.

uuWhen Driving uBlind spot information System*
Driving
Blind spot information System*
Is designed to detect vehicl es in specified alert zones adjacent to your vehicle,
particularly in harder to see areas commonly known as “blind spots”.
When the system detects vehi cles approaching from behind in adjacent lanes, the
appropriate indicator comes on for a few se conds, providing assistance when you
change lanes.
■How the system works
1 Blind spot information System*
Important Safety Reminder
Like all assistance systems, blind spot information
system has limitations. Over reliance on blind spot
information system may result in a collision.
The system is for your convenience only. Even if an
object is within the alert zone, the following
situations may occur.
•The blind spot informatio n system alert indicator
may not come on due to obstruction (splashes,
etc.) even without the Blind Spot Info Not
Available driver information interface appearing.
•The blind spot informatio n system alert indicator
may come on even with the message appearing.
3WARNING
Failure to visually confirm that it is safe to
change lanes before doing so may result in
a crash and serious injury or death.
Do not rely only on the blind spot
information system wh en changing lanes.
Always look in your mi rrors, to either side
of your vehicle, and behind you for other
vehicles before changing lanes.

■When the system detects a vehicle
Blind spot information System Alert Indicator:
Located near the pillar on both sides.
Comes on when:
•A vehicle enters the alert zone from behind
to overtake you with a speed difference of
no more than 31 mph (50 km/h) from your
vehicle.
• You pass a vehicle with a speed difference
of no more than 12 mph (20 km/h).
Blinks and a beeper sounds when:
You move the turn signal lever in the direction
of the detected vehicle. The beeper sounds
three times.1 Blind spot information System*
The blind spot information system alert indicator may
not come on under the following conditions:
•A vehicle does not stay in the alert zone for more
than two seconds.
•A vehicle is parked in a side lane.
•The speed difference betw een your vehicle and the
vehicle you are passing is greater than 6 mph
(10 km/h).
•An object not detected by the radar sensors
approaches or passes your vehicle.
•A vehicle running in the adjacent lane is a
motorcycle or other small vehicle.
The system does not operate when in
( R.
You can turn off the audible al ert, or all the blind spot
information system alert using the audio/information
screen.
2 Customized Features P. 329
Turn the system off when towing a trailer.
The system may not work properly for the following
reasons:
•The added mass tilts the vehicle and changes the
radar coverage.
•The trailer itself can be detected by the radar
sensors, causing the blind spot information system
alert indicators to come on.

1Blind spot information System*
Blind spot information sy stem may be adversely
affected when:
•Objects (guard rails, poles, trees, etc.) are detected.
•An object that does not re flect radio waves well,
such as a motorcycle, is in the alert zone.
•Driving on a curved road.
•A vehicle is moving from a far lane to the adjacent
lane.
•The system picks up external electrical interference.
•The rear bumper or the sens ors have been improperly
repaired or the rear bu mper has been deformed.
•The orientation of the sensors has been changed.
•In bad weather (Heavy rain, snow, and fog).
For a proper blind spot in formation system operation:
•Always keep the rear bumper corner area clean.•Do not cover the rear bumper corner area with
labels or stickers of any kind.
•Take your vehicle to a dealer if you need the rear
bumper corner area or the radar sensors to be repaired,
or the rear bumper corner area is strongly impacted.

Honda Sensing®
Honda Sensing® is a driver support system which employs the use of two distinctly
different kinds of sensors: a radar sens or located behind the emblem and a front
sensor camera mounted to th e interior side of the windshield, behind the rearview
mirror.
Honda Sensing® has the following functions.

Driving
Collision Mitigation Braking SystemTM (CMBSTM)
The system can assist you when it determines there is a possibility of your vehicle colliding
with a vehicle or a pedestrian detected in front of your vehicle. The CMBSTM is designed to
alert you when the potential for a collision is determined, as well as to reduce your vehicle
speed to help minimize collision severity when a collision is deemed unavoidable.
■How the system works
1 Collision Mitigation Braking SystemTM (CMBSTM)
Important Safety Reminder
The CMBSTM is designed to reduce the severity of an
unavoidable collision. It do es not prevent a collision nor
stop the vehicle automati cally. It is still your
responsibility to operate th e brake pedal and steering
wheel appropriately according to the driving conditions.
The CMBS
TM may not activate or may not detect a
vehicle in front of your vehicle under certain conditions:
2 CMBSTM Conditions and Limitations P. 439
For directions on the prop er handling of the radar
sensor, refer to the following page. 2 Radar Sensor P. 476
You can read about handling information for the
camera equipped with this system. 2 Front Sensor Camera P. 474
1How the system works
Rapid vibrations on the st eering wheel alert you
when your vehicle speed is between 19 and 62 mph
(30 and 100 km/h) with an oncoming vehicle
detected in front of you.
When the CMBS
TM activates, it may automatically
apply the brake. It will be canceled when your vehicle
stops or a potential colli sion is not determined.
The system starts monitoring the roadway ah ead when your vehicle speed is about
3 mph (5 km/h) or above and will search for a vehicle in front of you. The radar sensor is
behind the emblem.
The CMBS
TM activates when:●The speed difference between your vehicle and a vehicle or pedestrian
detected in front of you becomes about 3 mph (5 km/h) and over with a chance
of a collision.
●Your vehicle speed is about 62 mph (100 km /h) or less and there is a chance of a
collision with an oncoming detected vehicle or a pedestrian in front of you. The camera is
located behind the
rearview mirror.
