Driving
■How the system works
The CMBS
TM will be canceled when your vehi cle 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 pedal to avoid a collision.
1 How 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. 500
The radar sensor is behind 
the Honda emblem on the 
front grille.
A 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.
When to use
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.

■Assistive braking
Assistive braking provides a visual and  audible alert when the vehicle is moving 
between approximately 1 and 6 mph (2 and  10 km/h) and there is the possibility of 
a collision with a detected wall or other obstacles, as well as providing assistance 
with braking.
If the only rear sensors are turned off using the parking sensor system, the assistive 
braking will not work when reversing.

The vehicle will release the brake and start moving a 
few seconds after the system  is activated. To keep the 
vehicle stopped, keep the  brake pedal depressed or 
put the transmission into

In order to prevent the sy stem from activating when 
not needed, always turn it off during vehicle 
maintenance, when loading on ships, trucks, and so 
on, or when using a chas sis dynamometer or free 
rollers for inspection or when washing the car in 
conveyor type car wash machine.
If you put any accessories  on or around the rear 
sensors, the Low Speed Br aking Control System may 
activate if it detects these  accessories as an obstacle. 
In this case, turn off the rear sensor. 2 Customized Features  P. 376Audible Alert

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 gauge.
When the vehicle ahead of you starts again, if 
you press the  RES/+/SET/–  switch up or 
down, or depress the accelerator pedal, ACC 
with Low Speed Follow will operate 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.
