Controls
Rear Seats
1. Remove the center shoulder belt from the
guide.
2. Pull the release lever in the trunk to release
the lock.
3. Fold the seat-back down.
■Folding Down the Rear Seats1Folding Down the Rear Seats
The rear seat-backs can be folded down to
accommodate bulkier items in the trunk.
Never drive with the seat-back folded down and the
trunk lid open. 2 Exhaust Gas Hazard P. 87
To lock a seat-back upright, push it backwards until it
locks.
When returning the seat-back to its original position,
push it firmly back. Also, m ake sure all rear shoulder
belts are positioned in front of the seat-back, and the
center shoulder belt is re -positioned in the guide.
Make sure that the folded seat-back does not press
against the front passenger seat, as this can cause the
weight sensors in the front passenger seat to work
improperly. 2 Passenger Airbag Off Indicator P. 71
Make sure all items in the trunk or items
extending through the opening into the rear
seat 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.
The front seat(s) must be far enough forward so they
do not interfere with the rear seats as they fold
down.

uuWhen Driving uBlind Spot Information System
Driving
■When the system detects a vehicle
Blind spot information system alert indicator:
Located on the outside door mirror on both
sides.
Comes on when:
•A vehicle approaches you from behind to
overtake you at a speed difference of no
more than about 31 mph (50 km/h).
• You pass a vehicle at a speed difference of
no more than about 12 mph (20 km/h).
Blinks and a beeper sounds when:
You use the turn signal lever to signal a turn in
the direction of the detected vehicle while the
blind spot information system alert indicator is
on. u The beeper sounds three times.1Blind Spot Information System
For proper blind spot information system operation:
•Always keep the rear bumper and area around the
radar sensors clean.
•Do not cover the rear bumper corner area with
labels or sticke rs of any kind.
The system is for your convenience only. Even if an
object is within the alert zone, the following
situations may occur:
•The blind spot informatio n system alert indicator
does not come on and the message Blind spot
information system not available appears on
the driver information interface.
•The blind spot informatio n system alert indicator
may come on even with the message displayed.
The Vehicle Stability Assist
TM (VSA ®) system, Adaptive
Cruise Control (ACC) with Low Speed Follow, safety
support, low tire pressure/TPMS
*, and parking brake
and brake system (amber) indicators may come on in
amber along with a message in the driver information
interface when you set the power mode to ON after
reconnecting the 12-volt 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
Collision Mitigati on Braking SystemTM (CMBSTM)
The system can assist you when it determin es there is a possibility of your vehicle
colliding with a vehicle (including moto rcycles) 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 po tential for a collision is determined,
as well as assist in reducing speed, avoiding collisions, and reducing collision
severity.
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 collisions
nor stop the vehicle automati cally. It is still your
responsibility to operate the brake pedal and steering
wheel appropriately acco rding to the driving
conditions.
The CMBS
TM may not activate or may not detect a
vehicle in front of y our vehicle under certain
conditions:
2 CMBS
TM Conditions and Limitations P. 411
For directions on the prop er handling of the radar
sensor, refer to the following page. 2 Radar Sensor P. 481
You can read about handling information for the
camera equipped with this system. 2 Front Sensor Camera P. 479
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 fully depressed.

Driving
■How the system works
The CMBS
TM will be canceled when your vehicl e stops or the system determines
there no longer is the potential for a collision.
The CMBS
TM may also be canceled when a driver operates the steering wheel and
the brake or accelerator pe dal to avoid a collision.
1How the system works
The camera in the CMBS
TM is also designed to detect
pedestrians.
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 CMBS
TM Conditions and Limitations P. 411A front sensor
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) or above and will search for a vehicle, pedestrian, or moving bicycle
in front of you.
The CMBS
TM 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 a
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.
When to use
The radar sensor is
behind the Honda
emblem on the
front grille.
