■Automatic cancellation
The beeper sounds and a message appears on the driver information interface when
ACC with Low Speed Follow is automatically canceled. Any of these conditions may
cause the ACC with Low Speed Fo llow to automatically cancel:
• Bad weather (rain, fog, snow, etc.)
• When the radar sensor behind the Honda emblem gets dirty.
• The vehicle ahead of yo u cannot be detected.
• An abnormal tire condition is detected, or the tires are skidding.
• Driving on a mountainous road for extended periods, or driving off road.
• Abrupt steering wheel movement.
• When the ABS, VSA ®, CMBS
TM, or Low Speed Braking Control* is activated.
• When the ABS or VSA ® system indicator comes on.
• When the vehicle is stopped on a very steep slope.
• When you manually apply the parking brake.
• When the detected vehicle within the AC C with Low Speed Follow range is too
close to your vehicle.
• When accelerating rapidly.
• The camera behind the rearview mirror, or the area around the camera, including
the windshield, gets dirty.
• The vehicle has repeatedly applied the brakes to maintain the set speed (for
example, you are descending a long slope).
• When the system doesn't detect any drivi ng actions from the driver for a certain
amount of time while the LKAS is also activated.
• When the Maximum Load Limit is exceeded.
• When passing through an enclosed space, such as tunnel.
• When the parking brake and brake system indicator (amber) comes on.

• Green: The system is on.
• White: The system is standby.
To switch back to ACC with Low Speed
Follow, press and hold the interval button
again for one second.
Take your foot off the pedal and press the RES/+/SET/– switch up or down when
you reach the desired speed.
The moment you release the RES/+/SET/– switch, the set speed is fixed, and cruise
control begins. The color of indicator changes from white to green and set speed
appears on the gauge.
When you use cruise control, Straight Drivin g Assist (a feature of the Electric Power
Steering system) is activated.
By enabling the steering system to automatica lly compensate for natural steering pull,
Straight Driving Assist makes it easier for you to keep your vehicle in a straight line.
■When to use
Desired speed in a range above roughly 25 mph (40 km/h).
■To Switch ACC with Low Speed Follow to Cruise Control1 To Switch ACC with Low Speed Follow to Cruise Control

are driving in Cruise mode, the system will not assist
you to maintain a following-interval from a vehicle
ahead of you.
You cannot switch ACC with Low Speed Follow to
Cruise Control in the following situations:
•When the vehicle speed is set.
•When ACC with Low Speed Follow is not activated.
You can switch the displayed set speed

uuHonda Sensing ®u Lane Keeping Assist System (LKAS)
Driving
Lane Keeping Assist System (LKAS)
Provides steering input to help keep the vehicle in the middle of a detected lane and
provides tactile and visual alerts if the ve hicle is detected drifting out of its lane.1Lane Keeping Assist System (LKAS)
Important Safety Reminders
The LKAS is for your convenience only. It is not an
autonomous driving system and always requires
driver attention and control. The system does not
work if you take your hands off the steering wheel or
fail to steer the vehicle.
The LKAS is convenient when it is used on
expressways or freeways.
Do not place objects on the instrument panel.
Objects may reflect on th e windshield and prevent
correct detection of the traffic lanes.
The LKAS only alerts you when lane drift is detected
without a turn signal in use. The LKAS may not detect
all lane markings or lane departures; accuracy will
vary based on weather, speed, and lane marker
condition.
It is always your responsibility to safely operate the
vehicle and avoid collisions.
You can read about handling information for the
camera equipped with this system. 2 Front Sensor Camera P. 648
The LKAS may not work properly or may work
improperly under the certain conditions: 2 LKAS Conditions and Limitations P. 621
When you operate the turn signals to chan ge lanes, the system is suspended, and
resumes after the signals are off.
If you make a lane change without operating the turn signals, the LKAS alerts
activate, and torque is applied to the steering.
■Front Sensor

Monitors the
lane lines■Tactile and visual alerts
Rapid vibrations on the steering wheel
and a warning display alert you that the
vehicle is drifting out of a detected lane.
■Steering input assist
The system applies torque to the steering to keep the vehicle between the left
and right lane lines. The applied torque becomes stronger as the vehicle gets
closer to either of the lane lines.

Provides assistance to keep the vehicle in the center of the lane. When the vehicle
nears a white or yellow line, steering force of the electric power steering will become
stronger.
■Lane Keep Support Function1 Lane Keeping Assist System (LKAS)
When it fails to detect lanes, the system will
temporarily be canceled. When a lane is detected, the
system will recover automatically.
The LKAS may not function as designed while driving
in frequent stop and go traf fic, or on roads with
sharp curves.

■The LKAS may be automa tically suspended when:
• The system fails to detect lane lines.
• The steering wheel is turned quickly.
• You fail to steer the vehicle.
• Driving through a sharp curve.
• Driving at a speed in excess of approximately 94 mph (150 km/h).
• The ABS or VSA ® system engages.
Once these conditions no longer exist, the LKAS automatically resumes.
■The LKAS may be automa tically canceled when:
In the following cases, traffic lane lines may disappear on the gauge, the beeper may
sound, and the LKAS may be automatically canceled:
• The camera temperature gets extremely high.
• The camera behind the rearview mirror, or the area around the camera, including
the windshield, gets dirty.

uuHonda Sensing ®u Traffic Jam Assist
Continued
Driving
Traffic Jam Assist
The Traffic Jam Assist system uses a camera mounted to the upper portion of the
windshield to detect and monitor left and right white (or yellow) traffic lane lines.
Based on inputs from the camera, the system can apply steering torque to keep your
vehicle in the center of the detected lane.
■How Traffic Jam Assist works
When you are in heavy traffic and Lane Keep ing Assist System (LKAS) is active, the
Traffic Jam Assist system, upon detecting th e traffic lane lines, will apply steering
torque to help keep your vehicle in the center of the lane.
When the driver takes full control of the steering, the steering assist function is
temporarily canceled.
The torque applied to the steering may not be noticeable when the driver has full
control of the steering, or when the surface of the road is rough or uneven.
