Honda Sensing® (P 492)
Honda Sensing ® is a driver support system
which employs the use of three distinctly
different kinds of sensors: a radar sensor
located behind the Honda emblem on the
front grille, a front sensor camera mounted
to the interior side of the windshield,
behind the rearview mirror, and the sonar
sensors located in the front and rear
bumpers.

Collision Mitigation
Braking System
TM
(CMBS
TM) (P 495)
The system can assist you when it
determines there is a possibility of your
vehicle colliding with a vehicle (including
motorcycles) ahead from behind, an
oncoming vehicle in front, a pedestrian, or
someone riding a bicycle (moving bicycle).
The CMBS
TM is designed to alert you when
the potential for a collision is determined, as
well as assist in reducing speed, avoiding
collisions, and reducing collision severity.
Low Speed Braking
Control
* (P 507)
Using sonar sensors located on the front and
rear bumpers, this system can detect if there
is danger of a potential collision with a wall
or other obstacle during normal driving or
when the accelerator pedal is depressed
with too much force. The system then assists
in avoiding collisions and reducing damage
from impact through assistive braking and/
or assistive driving power suppression.
* Not available on all models

Adaptive Cruise Control
(ACC) with Low Speed
Follow
(P513)
Helps maintain a constant vehicle speed and
a set following-interval behind a vehicle
detected ahead of yours and, if the detected
vehicle comes to a stop, can decelerate and
stop your vehicle, without you having to
keep your foot on the brake or the
accelerator.
Lane Keeping Assist
System (LKAS)
(P 533)
Provides steering input to help keep the
vehicle in the middle of a detected lane and
provides tactile and visual alerts if the
vehicle is detected drifting out of its lane.
Traffic Jam Assist (P545)
The Traffic Jam Assist system uses a camera
mounted to the uppe r portion of the
windshield to detect and monitor left and
right white (or yellow) traffic lane lines.
Based on inputs from the camera, the
system can apply steering torque to keep
your vehicle in the center of the detected
lane.
Road Departure
Mitigation System
(P 554)
Alerts and helps assist you when the system
detects a possibility of your vehicle crossing
over detected lane markings, or
approaching the outer edge of the
pavement (into grass or gravel border) or a
detected oncoming vehicle.
Traffic Sign Recognition
System
(P562)
Reminds you of road si gn information, such
as the current speed limit your vehicle has
just passed through, showing it on the
gauge.
