uuWhen Driving uAgile Handling Assist
Driving
Agile Handling Assist
Lightly brakes the front wheel s, as needed, when you turn the steering wheel, and
helps support the vehicle's stability and performance during cornering.1 Agile Handling Assist
The agile handling assist ca nnot enhance stability in
all driving situations. You still need to drive and
corner at speeds appropriate for the conditions and
always leave a sufficient margin of safety.
When the VSA ® system indicator comes on and stays
on while driving, the agil e handling assist does not
activate.
You may hear a sound coming from the engine
compartment while the agile handling assist is
activated. This is normal.

uuWhen Driving uBlind Spot Information System*
Driving
The blind spot information system alert indicator may not come on under the
following conditions:
• There is a large speed difference betwee n your vehicle and the vehicle in the
adjacent lane.
• A vehicle is parked in a side lane.
• An object not detected by the radar sensors approaches or passes your vehicle.
• The vehicle driving in the adjacent lane is a motorcycle or other small vehicle.
The blind spot information system may not operate correctly under the following
conditions:
• Making a turn at an intersection.
• Objects (guard rails, poles, trees, etc.) are detected.
• An object that does not reflect radio wave s well or 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 signal interference such as other radar sensors from another
vehicle or strong radio wave transmitted from a facility nearby.
• The rear bumper or the area around the radar sensors is covered by dirt, mud,
snow, ice, etc.
• The rear bumper or the area around the radar sensors has been damaged or
deformed.
• In bad weather (heavy rain, snow, and fog).
• Making a short turn or driving on a bumpy road that slightly tilts the vehicle.
• An object such as a bicycle rack is attached to the rear of the vehicle.

Driving
In the following situations, the camera may be unable to correctly detect vehicles,
pedestrians, moving bicycles, or road conditions, potentially causing the CMBSTM to
operate improperly.
2 Front Wide View Camera P. 653
■Environmental conditions
• Driving in bad weather (rain, fog, snow, etc.).
• Sudden changes between light and dark, such as the entrance or exit of a tunnel
or the shadows of trees, buildings, etc.
• Driving into low sunlight (e.g., at dawn or dusk).
• Strong light is reflected onto vehicles, pedestrians, moving bicycles, or road
surfaces.
• Water is sprayed by or snow blown from a vehicle ahead.
• Driving at night or in a dark place such as a tunnel (due to low-light conditions,
vehicles, pedestrians, or moving bicycles may not be illuminated).
■Roadway conditions
• Driving on curvy, winding, undulating, or sloping roads.
• There is a film of water or puddles on the road surface.
• Driving on rutted roads (snowy or unpaved roads, etc.).
• Your vehicle is strongly shaken on uneven road surfaces.
■CMBSTM Conditions and Limitations1CMBSTM Conditions and Limitations
Have your vehicle checked by a dealer if you find any
unusual behavior of the system (e.g., the warning
message appears too frequently).

■Examples of limitations on the correct detection of the camera due to the condition of
the vehicle ahead of you, oncoming vehicles, pedestrians, or moving bicycles
• The distance between your vehicle an d the vehicle ahead of you, oncoming
vehicle, pedestrian, or moving bicycle ahead of you is too short.
• The vehicle ahead of you, oncoming vehicle, pedestrian, or moving bicycle
suddenly cuts in front of or jumps out in front of you.
• The bicycle is stopped.
• The oncoming vehicle or vehicle ahead of you is sideways or facing diagonally.
• When the vehicle ahead of you, oncoming vehicle, pedestrian, or moving bicycle
blends in with the background, preventing the system from recognizing them.
• When several pedestrians are moving ahead of you in a group.
• When several bicycles are movi ng ahead of you in a group.
• When a pedestrian or moving bicycle crosses the road too quickly.
• A pedestrian or moving bicycle approaches from the opposite direction.
• The headlights of the vehicle ahead of you or oncoming vehicle are lit on one side
or not lit on either side in a dark place.
• When part of a pedestrian (heads, limbs, etc.) is hidden by load.
• When a pedestrian is bent over or squatt ing, when their hands are raised, or they
are running.
• When the pedestrian is shorter than about 3.3 feet (1 meter) or taller than about
6.6 feet (2 meters) in height.
• When the pedestrian is pu shing a stroller or bicycle.
1Collision Mitigation Braking SystemTM (CMBSTM)
Make sure that all the tires are of the same specified
size, type and brand, and that they are evenly worn.
If you use tires of different sizes, types, brands, or
degree of wear, the syst em may not work properly.
Do not modify the suspensi on. Altering the height of
the vehicle may prevent the system from working
properly.

uuHonda Sensing ®u Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) with Low Speed Follow*
Driving
Adaptive Cruise Control (A CC) 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*
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.
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 or (S*.
A front wide view camera is
located behind the rearview
mirror.
* Not available on all models

uuHonda Sensing ®u Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) with Low Speed Follow*
584
Driving
■There is no vehicle ahead
Your vehicle maintains the set speed without
having to keep your foot on the brake or
accelerator pedal.
If there previously was a vehicle detected
ahead that kept your vehicle from traveling at
the set speed, ACC with Low Speed Follow
accelerates your vehicle to the set speed, and
then maintains it.
On steep downhill during ACC with Low
Speed Follow, it brakes to inhibit excessive
acceleration for maintaining the set speed.
However, the vehicle speed may become
faster than the set speed.
■When you depress the accelerator pedal
You can temporarily increase the vehicle speed. In this ca se, there is no audible or
visual alert even if a vehicle is in the ACC with Low Speed Follow range.
ACC with Low Speed Follow stays on unless you cancel it. Once you release the
accelerator pedal, the system resumes the set speed.
There are times when the vehicle speed will decrease when the accelerator pedal is
lightly applied.
1 When in Operation
•ACC with Low Speed Follow may temporarily
control the interval between your vehicle and the
vehicle in adjacent lane or surroundings of your
vehicle depending on the road conditions (e.g.
curves) or vehicle condi tions (e.g. operating the
steering wheel or the vehicle location in the lane).
•When the vehicle ahead of you moves away, such
as when entering an interchange or rest area, ACC
with Low Speed Follow may continue to maintain
the set following-interval for a short time.
Models with A-type meter
A vehicle icon with line contour
appears on the gauge.
