Driving
Vehicle Stability AssistTM (VSA ®), aka Electronic
Stability Control (ESC), System
VSA ® helps stabilize the vehicle during cornering if the vehicle turns more or less
than what was intended. It also assists in maintaining traction on slippery surfaces.
It does so by regulating engine and motor output and selectively applying the
brakes.
When VSA® activates, you may notice that the
engine and motor do not respond to the
accelerator. You may also notice some noise
from the hydraulic brake sy stem. You will also
see the indicator blink.
■VSA ® Operation
1 Vehicle Stability AssistTM (VSA ®), aka Electronic Stability Control
(ESC), System
The VSA ® may not function properl y if tire type and
size are mixed. Make sure to use the same size and
type of tire, and the air pressures as specified.
When the VSA ® system indicator comes on and stays
on while driving, there may be a problem with the
system. While this may not interfere with normal
driving, have your vehi cle checked by a dealer
immediately.
VSA ® cannot enhance stability in all driving situations
and does not control the entire braking system. You
still need to drive and corner at speeds appropriate
for the conditions and always leave a sufficient
margin of safety.
The main function of the VSA ® system is generally
known as Electronic Stab ility Control (ESC). The
system also includes a traction control function.
The Vehicle Stability Assist
TM (VSA ®) system, Adaptive
Cruise Control (ACC) with Low Speed Follow, safety
support, low tire pressure/TPMS
*, and parking brake
and brake system (amber) indicators may come on in
amber along with a message in the driver information
interface when you set the power mode to ON after
reconnecting the 12-volt battery.
Drive a short distance at mo re than 12 mph (20 km/h).
Each indicator should go off. If any do not, have your
vehicle checked by a dealer.

uuWhen Driving uTire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)*
394
Driving
You must start TPMS calibration every time you:
• Adjust the pressure in one or more tires.
• Rotate the tires.
• Replace one or more tires.
Before calibrating the TPMS:
• Set the cold tire pressu re in all four tires.
2Checking Tires P. 537
Make sure:
•The vehicle is at a complete stop.
• The transmission is in
(P.
• The power mode is in ON.
■TPMS Calibration
1Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)*
The Vehicle Stability AssistTM (VSA ®) system, Adaptive
Cruise Control (ACC) with Low Speed Follow, safety
support, low tire pressure /TPMS, and parking brake
and brake system (amber) indicators may come on in
amber along with a message in the driver information
interface when you set the power mode to ON after
reconnecting the 12-volt battery.
Drive a short distance at mo re than 12 mph (20 km/h).
Each indicator should go off. If any do not, have your
vehicle checked by a dealer.
1 TPMS Calibration
The calibration process requires approximately 30
minutes of cumulative driv ing at speeds between 30-
60 mph (48-97 km/h).
During this period, if the power mode is set to ON
and the vehicle is not moved within 45 seconds, you
may notice the low tire pressure/TPMS indicator
comes on briefly. This is no rmal and indicates that the
calibration process is not yet complete.
If tire chains
* are installed, remove them before
calibrating the TPMS.
If the low tire pressure/TPMS indicator comes on even
when the properly inflated specified regular tires are
installed, have your vehicle checked by a dealer.
We recommend that the tires be replaced with the
same brand, model, and size as the originals. Ask a
dealer for details.

■When the system detects a vehicle
Blind spot information system alert indicator:
Located on the outside door mirror on both
sides.
Comes on when:
•A vehicle approaches you from behind to
overtake you at a speed difference of no
more than about 31 mph (50 km/h).
• You pass a vehicle at a speed difference of
no more than about 12 mph (20 km/h).
Blinks and a beeper sounds when:
You use the turn signal lever to signal a turn in
the direction of the detected vehicle while the
blind spot information system alert indicator is
on. u The beeper sounds three times.1Blind Spot Information System
For proper blind spot information system operation:
•Always keep the rear bumper and area around the
radar sensors clean.
•Do not cover the rear bumper corner area with
labels or sticke rs of any kind.
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
does not come on and the message Blind spot
information system not available appears on
the driver information interface.
•The blind spot informatio n system alert indicator
may come on even with the message displayed.

uuHonda Sensing ®u Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) with Low Speed Follow
Driving
Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) with Low Speed
Follow
Helps maintain a constant vehicle speed a nd a set following-interval behind a vehicle
detected ahead of yours and, if the detect ed vehicle comes to a stop, can decelerate
and stop your vehicle, without you having to keep your foot on the brake or the
accelerator.
When ACC with Low Speed Follow slows y our vehicle by applying the brakes, your
vehicle’s brake lights will illuminate.
1 Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) with Low Speed Follow
3WARNING
Improper use of ACC with Low Speed
Follow can lead to a crash.
Use ACC with Low Speed Follow only when
driving on expressways or freeways and in
good road and weather conditions.
3WARNING
ACC with Low Speed Follow has limited
braking capability and may not stop your
vehicle in time to avoid a collision with a
vehicle that quickly stops in front of you.
Always be prepared to apply the brake
pedal if the conditions require.
When to use
■Vehicle speed for ACC wi th Low Speed Follow: A vehicle is detected ahead
within ACC with Low Speed Follow range – ACC with Low Speed Follow
operates at speeds up to 90 mph (145 km/h).
No vehicle is detected within ACC with Low Speed Follow range – ACC with
Low Speed Follow operates at the speed of 25 mph (40 km/h) or above.
■Shift position for ACC with Low Speed Follow: In ( D.
A front sensor
camera is located
behind the
rearview mirror.
The radar sensor is
behind the Honda
emblem on the
front grille.

Driving
■How to activate the system1Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) with Low Speed Follow
Important Reminder
As with any system, there are limits to ACC with Low
Speed Follow. Use the brake pedal whenever
necessary, and always keep a safe interval between
your vehicle and other vehicles.
While in ECON mode, or when you have selected
ECON for ACC in the INDIVIDUAL Settings screen,
it may take relatively more time to accelerate to
maintain the set speed.
For directions on the prop er handling of the radar
sensor, refer to the following page. 2 Radar Sensor P. 481
3WARNING
Exiting a vehicle that has been stopped
while the ACC with Low Speed Follow
system is operating can result in the vehicle
moving without operator control.
A vehicle that moves without operator
control can cause a crash, resulting in
serious injury or death.
Never exit a vehicle when the vehicle is
stopped by ACC with Low Speed Follow.
How to use
■Press the button on the
steering wheel.
