To return the seat to the original position, pull
up the seat-back in the upright position.
■Folding Down the Rear Seats1 Folding Down the Rear Seats
Make sure all items in the cargo area or items
extending to the rear seats are properly
secured. Loose items can fly forward if you have
to brake hard.
Remove any items from th e rear seat cushion and
floor before you fold down the rear seat.
To lock the seat-back upri ght, push it backwards until
it locks.
Make sure the seat-back, head restraints and seat
cushion are securely latche d back into place before
driving. Also, make sure all rear shoulder belts are
positioned in front of the seat-back, and the center
shoulder belt is re-posit ioned in the holding slot.
Make sure that the folded seat-back does not press
against the front passenger se at, as this can cause the
weight sensors in the front passenger seat to work
improperly.

uuBefore Driving uDriving Preparation
Driving
• Be sure items placed on the floor behind the front seats cannot roll under the
seats.
u They can interfere with the driver’s ability to operate the pedals, the operation
of the seats, or the operation of the sensors under the seats.
• Everyone in the vehicle must fasten their seat belt.
2Fastening a Seat Belt P. 40
•Make sure that the indicators in the ins trument panel come on when you start the
vehicle, and go off soon after.
u Always have a dealer check the vehicle if a problem is indicated.

uuWhen Driving uFront Sensor Camera*
Continued
Driving
Front Sensor Camera*
The camera, used in systems su ch as LKAS, RDM, ACC, and CMBSTM, is designed to
detect an object 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 Sensor Camera*
Never apply a film or attach any objects to the
windshield, the hood, or the front grill 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.

1Front Sensor Camera*
If the Some Driver Assist Systems Cannot
Operate: Camera Temperature Too High message
appears:
•Use the climate control system to cool down the
interior and, if necessary, also use defroster mode
with the airflow directed towards the camera.
•Start driving the vehicle to lower the windshield
temperature, which cool s down the area around
the camera.
If the Some Driver Assist Systems Cannot
Operate: Clean Front Windshield message
appears:
•Park your vehicle in a sa fe place, and clean the
windshield. If the message does not disappear after
you have cleaned the windshield and driven for a
while, have your vehicle checked by a dealer.

Continued
Driving
Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC)*
Helps maintain a constant vehicle speed an d a set following-interval behind a vehicle
detected ahead of yours, without you having to keep your foot on the brake or the
accelerator.1 Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC)*
Important Reminder
As with any system, there are limits to ACC. Use the
brake pedal whenever necessary, and always keep a
safe interval betw een your vehicle and other vehicles.
Shift up when the engine revolutions is increasing.
Shift down when the engine revolutions is decreasing.
You can keep the set speed if you change the shift position
within five second after depressing the clutch pedal.
You can read about handling information for the
camera equipped with this system.
2 Front Sensor Camera
* P. 431
3WARNING
Improper use of ACC can lead to a crash.
Use ACC only when driving on expressways or
freeways in good weather conditions.
3WARNING
ACC has limited braking capability.
When your vehicle speed drops below
22 mph (35 km/h), ACC will automatically
cancel and no longer will apply your
vehicle’s brakes.
Always be prepared to apply the brake
pedal when conditions require.
Manual transmission models
When to use
■Vehicle speed for ACC: Desired speed in a range above roughly 25 mph
(40 km/h) ~
■Shift position for ACC: In ( D or (S
■Shift position for ACC: In (2 or higher position

Driving
■How to activate the system
1Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC)*
The radar sensor for ACC is shared with the collision
mitigation braking systemTM (CMBSTM)
2 Collision Mitigation Braking SystemTM
(CMBSTM)* P. 472
When not using ACC: Turn off adaptive cruise by
pressing the MAIN button. This also will turn off the
Lane Keeping Assist System (LKAS).
When the MAIN button is pressed both ACC and the
Lane Keeping Assist System (LKAS) are either turned
on or off.
ACC may not work properly under certain conditions. 2 ACC Conditions and Limitations P. 438
Do not use ACC under the following conditions:
•On roads with heavy traf fic or while driving in
continuous stop and go traffic.
•On roads with sharp turns.•On roads with steep downhill sections, as the set
vehicle speed can be exceeded by coasting. In such
cases, ACC will not apply the brakes to maintain
the set speed.
•On roads with toll collection facilities or other
objects between lanes of traffic, or in parking
areas, or faci lities with driv e through access.
How to use
■Press the MAIN button on
the steering wheel.
ACC is on in the multi-
information display.
ACC is ready to use.
