uuWhen Driving uShifting
Driving
The manual transmission has a lockout mech anism that stops you from accidentally 
shifting into 
(R from a forward gear while the ve hicle is moving above a certain 
speed.
If you cannot shift to 
(R when the vehicle is stopped, do the following:
1.Depress the clutch pedal, move the shift 
lever all the way to the left, and shift to 
(R.
2. If you still cannot shift into 
(R, apply the 
parking brake, and turn the ignition switch 
to ACCESSORY 
(q or LOCK (0*1.
3. Depress the clutch pedal and shift into 
(R.
4. Keep depressing the clutch pedal and start 
the engine.
Have the vehicle checked by a dealer if you 
have to go through this procedure repeatedly.
*1: Models with the smart entry system have an  ENGINE START/STOP button instead of an 
ignition switch.

uuWhen Driving uTire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)
458
Driving
You must start TPMS calibration every time you:
• Adjust the pressure in one or more tires.
• Rotate the tires.
• Replace one or more tires.
Before calibrating the TPMS:
• Set the cold tire pressu re in all four tires.
2Checking Tires  P. 578
Make sure:
•The vehicle is at a complete stop.
• The shift lever is in 
(N.
• The shift lever is in 
(P.
• The ignition switch is in ON 
(w*1.
*1: Models with the smart entry system have an  ENGINE START/STOP button instead of an 
ignition switch.
■TPMS Calibration1 TPMS Calibration
•TPMS cannot be calibrated  if a compact spare tire* 
is installed.
•The calibration process  requires approximately 30 
minutes of cumulative dr iving at speeds between 
30-65 mph (48-105 km/h).
•During this period, if the igni tion switch is turned to 
ON 
( w*1 and the vehicle is not moved within 45 
seconds, you may notice th e low tire pressure 
indicator comes on briefl y. This is normal and 
indicates that the calibr ation process is not yet 
complete.
If the snow chains
* are installed, remove them before 
calibrating the TPMS.
If the low tire pressure/TPMS indicator comes on even 
when the properly inflated specified regular tires are 
installed, have your vehicle checked by a dealer.
We recommend that the tires be replaced with the 
same brand, model, and size  as the originals. Ask a 
dealer for details.

uuHonda Sensing ®u Collision Mitigation Braking SystemTM (CMBSTM)
Driving
Collision Mitigati on Braking SystemTM (CMBSTM)
Can assist you when there is a possibility of your vehicle colliding with a vehicle or a 
pedestrian detected in  front of yours. The CMBSTM is designed to alert you when a 
potential collision is determined, as well as to reduce your vehicle speed to help 
minimize collision severity when a collision is deemed unavoidable.
1 Collision Mitigation Braking SystemTM (CMBSTM)
Important Safety Reminder
The CMBS
TM is designed to reduce the severity of an 
unavoidable collision. It does not prevent collision nor 
stop the vehicle automatically. It is still your 
responsibility to  operate the brake  pedal and steering 
wheel appropriately acco rding to the driving 
conditions.
When the CMBS
TM activates, the engine may stop 
automatically.
Start the engine  by normal operation  if the engine 
stops. 2 Starting the Engine  P. 432, 435
The CMBS
TM may not activate or may not detect a 
vehicle in front of y our vehicle under certain 
conditions: 2 CMBS

■How the system works1How the system works
When the CMBS
TM activates, it  may automatically 
apply the brake. It will be canceled when your vehicle 
stops or a potential coll ision is not determined.
The radar sensor is in 
the lower bumper.
The camera is located 
behind the rearview 
mirror.
The system starts monitoring the roadway ah ead when your vehicle speed is about 
3 mph (5 km/h) and there is a vehicle in front of you.
When to use
The CMBSTM activates when:●The speed difference between your vehicle and a vehicle or pedestrian detected 
in front of you becomes about 3 mph (5 km/h) and over with a chance of a 
collision.
●Your vehicle speed is about 62 mph (100 km/h) or less and the system determines 
there is a chance of a collision with:
- Vehicles detected in front of you that ar e stationary, oncoming, or traveling in your 
same direction.
- A pedestrian who is detected in front of you.
●Your vehicle speed is above 62 mph (100 km/h), and the system determines there 
is a chance of a collision with a vehicle detected in front of you traveling in your 
same direction.

Driving
■A vehicle detected ahead is within  ACC with Low Speed Follow range and 
slows to a stop Your vehicle also stops, automatically. The 
Stopped message appears on the driver 
information interface.
When the vehicle ahead  of you starts again, 
the vehicle icon on the driver information 
interface blinks. If you press the  RES/+ or 
–/SET  button, or depress the accelerator 
pedal, ACC with Low Sp eed Follow operates 
again within the prior set speed.
If no vehicle is ahead of you before you 
resume driving, depress the accelerator pedal 
and ACC with Low Speed Follow will operate 
again within the prior set speed.1 When in Operation
3WARNING
Exiting a vehicle that has been stopped 
while the ACC with Low Speed Follow 
system is operating can result in the 
vehicle moving without operator 
control.
A vehicle that moves without operator 
control can cause a crash, resulting in 
serious injury or death.
Never exit a vehicle  when the vehicle is 
stopped by ACC with Low Speed Follow.

you:
• Set the wipers to  HI.
u Turning the wipers o ff or setting it to LO

or operate at low speed.
• Decrease the vehicle speed to 40 mph (64 
km/h) or less.
u Increasing the vehicle speed to 45 mph 
(72 km/h) or more resumes the LKAS.
• Depress the brake pedal.
u The LKAS resumes and starts detecting 
the lane lines again once you release the

■The LKAS may automatica lly be suspended when:
• The system fails to detect lane lines.
• The steering wheel is quickly turned.
• You fail to steer the vehicle.
• Driving through a sharp curve.
• Driving at a speed in excess of  approximately 90 mph (145 km/h).
Once these conditions no longer exist, the LKAS automatically resumes.
When the LKAS is suspended, 
the lane lines on the driver 
information interface change to

■Parking Brake1 Parking Brake
You may hear the electric parking brake system 
motor operating from the re ar wheel area when you 
apply or release the parki ng brake. This is normal.
The brake pedal may slightly  move due to the electric 
parking brake system opera tion when you apply or 
release the parking br ake. This is normal.
You cannot apply or  release the parking brake if the 
12-volt battery goes dead. 2 Jump Starting  P. 626
If you pull up and hold the electric parking brake 
switch while driving, the brakes on all four wheels 
are applied by the VSA
® system until the vehicle 
comes to a stop. The electric parking brake then 
applies, and the switch should be released
.
In the following situations, the parking brake 
automatically operates.
•When your vehicle is stopped with the automatic 
brake hold system activated for more than 10 
minutes.
•When the driver’s seat  belt is unfastened while 
your vehicle is stopped  and the brake hold system 
is applied.
•When the engine is turned off while the brake hold 
system is applied.
