Driving
Traffic Jam Assist is activated when all of the following conditions exist:
• LKAS is activated.
• The lane in which you are driving has dete ctable lane markers on both sides, and
your vehicle is in the center of the lane.
• The vehicle is traveling between about 0 and 45mph (0 and 72km/h).
• You are driving on a straight or slightly curved road.
• The driver is gripping the steering wheel.
• The shift position is in
(D, (S* or (L*.
Do not use Traffic Jam Assist in any of the following situations:
• You are traveling on a ro ad with sharp curves.
u The system may not allow your vehicle to respond in a manner best suited for
the road conditions.
• You are entering a toll booth, interchange, service area, or parking area.
• You are driving in adverse weat her (rain, fog, snow, etc.).
• The surface of the road is slippery; for ex ample, it is icy or covered with snow.
u The tires may slip, causing you to lose control of the vehicle.

Driving
1Traffic Sign Recognition System
To help reduce the likel ihood that high interior
temperatures will cause the camera's sensing system
to shut off, when parking, find a shady area or face
the front of the vehicle away from the sun. If you use
a reflective sun shade, do not allow it to cover the
camera housing.
Covering the camera can concentrate heat on it.
If your vehicle exceeds the detected speed limit, an
icon representing the speed limit sign for the current
area will blink in the display. 2 Settings P. 138
2 Customized Features P. 390
The system's ability to accurately notify the driver of
the speed limit is depend ent on certain conditions
such as the units displayed on the traffic sign as well
as the speed and direction of travel of the vehicle. In
some cases, the system may display false warnings or
other inaccurate information. 2 Traffic Sign Recognition System Conditions
and Limitations P. 649
The unit for speed limits (mph or km/h) varies from
country to country. Just after entering a country
whose unit differs to the one of the country from
which you came, Traffic Sign Recognition System
may not work correctly. 2 Settings P. 138

Driving
Front Wide View Camera
The camera, used in systems such as Lane Keeping Assist System (LKAS), Road
Departure Mitigation system, Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) with Low Speed
Follow
*, Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC)*, Traffic Sign Recognition system, CMBSTM,
and Traffic Jam Assist*, is designed to detect an ob ject that triggers any of the
systems to operate their functions.
This camera is located behind the rearview
mirror.
To help reduce the likelihood that high interior
temperatures will cause the camera's sensing
system to shut off, when parking, find a shady
area or face the front of the vehicle away from
the sun. If you use a reflective sun shade, do
not allow it to cover the camera housing.
Covering the camera can concentrate heat on
it.
■Camera Location and Handling Tips
1 Front Wide View Camera
Never apply a film or attach any objects to the
windshield, the hood, or th e front grille that could
obstruct the camera's fiel d of vision and cause the
system to operate abnormally.
Scratches, nicks, and othe r damage to the windshield
within the camera's fiel d of vision can cause the
system to operate abnormall y. If this occurs, we
recommend that you replac e the windshield with a
genuine Honda replacem ent windshield. Making
even minor repairs within th e camera's field of vision
or installing an aftermarket replacement windshield
may also cause the system to operate abnormally.
After replacing the winds hield, have a dealer
recalibrate the camera. Pr oper calibration of the
camera is necessary for the system to operate
properly.
Do not place an object on the top of the instrument
panel. It may reflect onto the windshield and prevent
the system from detecting lane lines properly.

Your vehicle is equipped with disc brakes at all four wheels. A vacuum power assist
helps to reduce the effort needed on th e 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 brak ing very hard.

■Brake squeal
To satisfy the performance under a wide range of driving conditions, a
highperformance braking system is equipped on your vehicle. You may hear the
brake squeal under certain conditions, such as vehicle speed, deceleration, humidity,
and so on. This is not a malfunction.
■Foot Brake1 Foot 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 vibr ation 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.
