uuWhen Driving uVehicle Stability Assist ® (VSA ®), aka Electronic Stability Control (ESC), System
Driving
Vehicle Stability Assist ® (VSA ®), aka Electronic
Stability Control (ESC), System
VSA ® helps to stabilize the vehicle during cornering if the vehicle turns more or less
than what was intended. It also assists in maintaining traction on slippery surfaces.
It does so by regulating engine output and select ively applying the brakes.
When VSA ® activates, you may notice that the
engine does not respond to the accelerator.
You may also notice some noise from the
hydraulic system. You will also see the
indicator blink.
■VSA ® Operation
1 Vehicle Stability Assist ® (VSA ®), aka Electronic Stability Control
(ESC), System
The VSA ® may not function properl y if tire type and
size are mixed. Make sure to use the same size and
type of tire, and the air pressures as specified.
When the VSA ® system indicator comes on and stays
on while driving, there ma y be a problem with the
system. While this may not interfere with normal
driving, have your vehi cle checked by a dealer
immediately.
VSA ® cannot enhance stability in all driving situations
and does not control the entire braking system. You
still need to drive and corner at speeds appropriate
for the conditions and always leave a sufficient
margin of safety.
The main function of the VSA ® system is generally
known as Electronic Stability Control (ESC). The
system also includes a traction control function.
The Vehicle Stability Assist ® (VSA ®) system, Vehicle
Stability Assist ® (VSA ®) OFF, adaptive cruise control
(ACC) with low speed follow (LSF)
*, adaptive cruise
control (ACC)*, safety support and low tire pressure/
TPMS indicators may come on in amber along with a
message in the driver information interface when you
set the power mode to ON after re-connecting a
battery.
Drive a short distance at more than 12 mph (20 km/h).
Each indicator should go off. If any do not, have your
vehicle checked by a dealer.

Driving
You can calibrate the system from the
customized feature on the audio/information
screen.
2 Audio System Basic Operation P. 252
1.Set the power mode to ON.
2. Press the MENU/CLOCK button.
3. Rotate to select Settings, then press
.
4. Rotate to select Vehicle Settings, then
press .
5. Rotate to select TPMS Calibration,
then press .
6. Rotate to select Calibrate, then press
.
• If the Calibration failed to start. message
appears, repeat steps 5-6.
• The calibration pr ocess finishes
automatically.
1 Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)
The low tire pressure/TPMS indicator may come on
under the following conditions:
•A compact spare tire is used.
•There is a heavier and une ven load on the tires,
such as when towing a trailer*, than the condition
at calibration.
•Snow chains* are used.
The Vehicle Stability Assist ® (VSA ®) system, Vehicle
Stability Assist® (VSA®) OFF, adaptive cruise control
(ACC) with low speed follow (LSF)
*, adaptive cruise
control (ACC)*, safety support and low tire pressure/
TPMS indicators may come on in amber along with a
message in the driver info rmation interface when you
set the power mode to ON after re-connecting a
battery.
Drive a short distance at mo re than 12 mph (20 km/h).
Each indicator should go off. If any do not, have your
vehicle checked by a dealer.
1 TPMS Calibration
TPMS cannot be calibrated if a compact spare tire is
installed.
The calibration process requires approximately 30
minutes of cumulative driv ing at speeds between 30-
60 mph (48-97 km/h).
During this period, if the pow er mode is set to ON and
the vehicle is not moved wi thin 45 seconds, you may
notice the low tire pressu re/TPMS indicator comes on
briefly. This is normal and indicates that the calibration
process is not yet complete.

Honda Sensing®
Honda Sensing® is a driver support system which employs the use of two distinctly
different kinds of sensors: a radar sensor located in the front lower grille and a front
sensor camera mounted to the interior side of the windshield, behind the rearview
mirror.
Honda Sensing ® has following functions.

Driving
When you turn the CMBSTM on and off, do the
following.
1. Press the safety support switch.
2. Roll the left selector wheel to the
symbol and push it.
u The message appears on the driver
information interface when the system
becomes on or off.
The CMBS
TM is turned on every time you start
the engine, even if you turned it off the last
time you drove the vehicle.
■CMBSTM On and Off1 Collision Mitigation Braking SystemTM (CMBSTM)
The CMBS
TM may automatically shut off, and the
safety support indicator (amb er) will come and stay
on under certain conditions:

TM Conditions and Limitations P. 514
When the CMBS
TM is activated, it will continue to
operate even if the accele rator pedal is partially
depressed. However, it w ill be canceled if the
accelerator pedal is deeply depressed.

Continued
Driving
Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) with Low Speed Follow (LSF)*
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 ve hicle, without you having to keep your foot on the brake or the
accelerator.
When ACC with LSF slows your vehicle by applying the brakes, your vehicle’s brake
lights will illuminate.1 Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) with Low Speed Follow (LSF)*
Important Reminder
As with any system, there are limits to ACC with LSF.
Use the brake pedal whenever necessary, and always
keep a safe interval between your vehicle and other
vehicles.
3WARNING
Improper use of ACC with LSF can lead
to a crash.
Use ACC with LSF only when driving on
expressways or freeways and in good
weather conditions.
3WARNING
ACC with LSF has limited braking
capability and may not stop your vehicle
in time to avoid a co llision with a vehicle
that quickly stops in front of you.
Always be prepared to apply the brake
pedal if the cond itions require.
When to use
■Vehicle speed for ACC with LSF: A vehicle is detected ahead within ACC with
LSF range – ACC with LSF operates at speeds up to 90 mph (145 km/h).
No vehicle is detected within ACC with LSF range – ACC with LSF operates at
the speed of 25 mph (40 km/h) or above.
■Gear position for ACC with LSF: In ( D or ( S*. The radar sensor is at the
lower part of the front
bumper.
The camera is
located behind
the rearview
mirror.
