Collision Mitigation Braking SystemTM (CMBSTM)  
1Collision Mitigation Braking SystemTM (CMBSTM  
)
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 CMBSTM 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.  
Important Safety Reminder  
The CMBSTM is designed to reduce the severity of an  
unavoidable collision. It does not prevent collisions  
nor stop the vehicle automatically. It is still your  
responsibility to operate the brake pedal and steering  
wheel appropriately according to the driving  
conditions.  
The CMBSTM may not activate or may not detect a  
vehicle in front of your vehicle under certain  
conditions:  
2 CMBSTM Conditions and Limitations P. 558  
You can read about handling information for the  
camera equipped with this system.  
2 Front Wide View Camera P. 651  
When the CMBSTM is activated, it will continue to  
operate even if the accelerator pedal is partially  
depressed. However, it will be canceled if the  
accelerator pedal is fully depressed.  
Manual transmission models  
When the CMBSTM activates, the engine may stop  
automatically. Start the engine by normal operation if  
the engine stops.

How the system works  
1How the system works  
The camera in the CMBSTM is also designed to detect  
pedestrians.  
When to use  
A front wide view camera is located  
behind the rearview mirror.  
However, this pedestrian detection feature may not  
activate or may not detect a pedestrian in front of  
your vehicle under certain conditions.  
Refer to the ones indicating the pedestrian detection  
limitations from the list.  
2 CMBSTM Conditions and Limitations P. 558  
The system starts monitoring the roadway ahead when your vehicle speed is about  
3 mph (5 km/h) or above and will search for a vehicle, pedestrian, or moving bicycle  
in front of you.  
The CMBSTM activates when:  
●
The speed difference between your vehicle and a vehicle, pedestrian, or moving  
bicycle detected in front of you becomes about 3 mph (5 km/h) and over with a  
chance of a collision.  
Your vehicle drives at about 18 mph (30 km/h) or less and there is a chance of in  
●
frontal collision with a detected oncoming vehicle when you turn left at an  
intersection.  
Your vehicle speed is about 62 mph (100 km/h) or less and the system determines  
●
there is a chance of a collision with:  
- An oncoming or stationary vehicle detected in front of you.  
- A pedestrian or moving bicycle detected in front of you.  
The CMBSTM will be canceled when your vehicle stops or the system determines  
there no longer is the potential for a collision.  
The CMBSTM may also be canceled when a driver operates the steering wheel and  
the brake or accelerator pedal to avoid a collision.

Low Speed Braking Control*  
1Low Speed Braking Control*  
Continuously variable transmission models with parking sensor system  
Using sonar sensors located on the front and rear bumpers, and the front grille, this  
system detects 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.  
3
WARNING  
The Low Speed Braking Control System  
cannot avoid all collisions and may not  
reduce damage in each situation where the  
accelerator is mistakenly or aggressively  
pressed. Overreliance on the system may  
result in a collision with serious injury or  
death. Always check your surroundings,  
your shift position, and your pedal use.  
Driver remains responsible for safely  
operating the vehicle.  
If the Low Speed Braking Control activates in a  
situation where you do not want automatic brake  
application (such as when the vehicle is between two  
railroad crossing gates), simply press the brake pedal  
to deactivate the system and then continue to drive  
as intended.

•
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 conditions (e.g. operating the  
steering wheel or the vehicle location in the lane).  
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.  
A vehicle icon with line contour  
appears on the gauge.  
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.

lane lines  
Do not place objects on the instrument panel.  
Objects may reflect on the windshield and prevent  
correct detection of the traffic lanes.  
The LKAS only alerts you when lane drift is detected  
without a turn signal in use. The LKAS may not detect  
all lane markings or lane departures; accuracy will  
vary based on weather, speed, and lane marker  
condition.  
It is always your responsibility to safely operate the  
vehicle and avoid collisions.  
The LKAS may not work properly or may work  
improperly under the certain conditions:

uuHonda Sensing®uTraffic Jam Assist*  
Traffic Jam Assist*  
1Traffic Jam Assist*  
The Traffic Jam Assist system uses a camera mounted to the upper 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.  
Important Safety Reminders  
Traffic Jam Assist is for your convenience only. It is  
not an autonomous driving system and always  
requires driver attention and control. The system  
does not work if you take your hands off the steering  
wheel or fail to steer the vehicle.  
■
How Traffic Jam Assist works  
When you are in heavy traffic and Lane Keeping Assist System (LKAS) is active, the  
Traffic Jam Assist system, upon detecting the traffic lane lines, will apply steering  
torque to help keep your vehicle in the center of the lane.  
Traffic Jam Assist is convenient when it is used on  
expressways or freeways.  
You can read about handling information for the  
camera equipped with this system.  
Front Wide View Camera  
2 Front Wide View Camera P. 651  
Detects left and right white  
(or yellow) traffic lane lines  
The Traffic Jam Assist only alerts you when lane drift  
is detected without a turn signal in use. The Traffic  
Jam Assist may not detect all lane markings or lane  
departures; accuracy will vary based on weather,  
speed, and lane marker condition.  
It is always your responsibility to safely operate the  
vehicle and avoid collisions.  
Traffic Jam Assist may not work properly under  
certain conditions:  
When you use the turn signal to indicate a lane change, Traffic Jam Assist is  
temporarily deactivated. It is reactivated once the vehicle is traveling in the  
center of the lane and the system has detected the traffic lane lines.  
2 Traffic Jam Assist Conditions and  
Limitations P. 633  
When the driver takes full control of the steering, the steering assist function is  
temporarily canceled.  
The torque applied to the steering may not be noticeable when the driver has full  
control of the steering, or when the surface of the road is rough or uneven.

uuHonda Sensing®uTraffic Sign Recognition System  
Traffic Sign Recognition System  
Reminds you of road sign information, such as the current speed limit your vehicle  
has just passed through, showing it on the gauge.  
1Traffic Sign Recognition System  
Not all signs may be displayed, but any signs posted  
on roadsides should not be ignored. The system does  
not work on the designated traffic signs of all the  
countries you travel, nor in all situations.  
Do not rely too much on the system. Always drive at  
speeds appropriate for the road conditions.  
How the System Works  
■
When the camera located behind the rearview mirror captures traffic signs while  
driving, the system displays the ones that are recognized as designated for your  
vehicle. The sign icon will be displayed until the vehicle reaches a predetermined  
time and distance.  
Never apply a film or attach any objects to the  
windshield that could obstruct the camera's field of  
vision and cause the system to operate abnormally.  
Scratches, nicks, and other damage to the windshield  
within the camera's field of vision can cause the  
system to operate abnormally. If this occurs, we  
recommend that you replace the windshield with a  
genuine Honda replacement windshield. Making even  
minor repairs within the camera's field of vision or  
installing an aftermarket replacement windshield may  
also cause the system to operate abnormally. After  
replacing the windshield, have a dealer recalibrate the  
camera. Proper calibration of the camera is necessary  
for the system to operate properly.  
If the system does not detect any traffic signs while you are driving, the sign icon will  
not be displayed.  
Models with B-type meter  
The traffic sign recognition system is not activated for  
about 15 seconds after the engine starts.  
You can read about handling information for the

uuHonda Sensing®uFront Wide View Camera  
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 object that triggers any of the  
systems to operate their functions.  
1Front Wide View Camera  
Never apply a film or attach any objects to the  
windshield, the hood, or the front grille that could  
obstruct the camera's field of vision and cause the  
system to operate abnormally.  
Scratches, nicks, and other damage to the windshield  
within the camera's field of vision can cause the  
system to operate abnormally. If this occurs, we  
recommend that you replace the windshield with a  
genuine Honda replacement windshield. Making  
even minor repairs within the camera's field of vision  
or installing an aftermarket replacement windshield  
may also cause the system to operate abnormally.  
After replacing the windshield, have a dealer  
recalibrate the camera. Proper calibration of the  
camera is necessary for the system to operate  
properly.  
Camera Location and Handling Tips  
■
This camera is located behind the rearview  
mirror.  
Front Wide  
View Camera  
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.  
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.  
* Not available on all models
