Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC)

Driving

Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC)

Helps maintain a constant vehicle speed and a set following-interval behind a vehicle
detected ahead of yours, without you having to keep your foot on the brake or the
accelerator.

Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC)

ACC cannot be activated if Intelligent Traction
Management setting is

Snow

Sand

Mud

WARNING

Improper use of ACC can lead to a crash.
Use ACC only when driving on expressways
or freeways and in good road and weather
conditions.

WARNING

ACC has limited braking capability.

When your vehicle speed drops below
22 mph (35 km/h), ACC will automatically
cancel and no longer will apply your
vehicle's brakes.

Always be prepared to apply the brake
pedal when conditions require.

When to use

range above roughly 25 mph (40 km/h)

Important Reminder

As with any system, there are limits to ACC. Use the
brake pedal whenever necessary, and always keep a
safe interval between your vehicle and other vehicles.

When not using ACC: Turn off adaptive cruise by
pressing the

MAIN

button. This also will turn off the

Lane Keeping Assist System (LKAS).

When the

MAIN

button is pressed, ACC and Lane

off.

You can switch the displayed set speed
measurements on the driver information interface
between mph and km/h.

P. 117

Do not use ACC under the following conditions:

•

On roads with heavy traffic or while driving in
continuous stop and go traffic.

•

On roads with sharp turns.

•

On roads with steep downhill sections, as the set
vehicle speed can be exceeded by coasting. In such
cases, ACC will not apply the brakes to maintain
the set speed.

•

On roads with toll collection facilities or other
objects between lanes of traffic, or in parking
areas, or facilities with drive through access.

■

There is a vehicle ahead

ACC monitors if a vehicle ahead of you enters the ACC range. If a vehicle is detected
doing so, the ACC system maintains or decelerates your vehicle’s set speed in order
to keep the vehicle’s set following-interval from the vehicle ahead.

To Set or Change Following-interval

P. 454

When a vehicle whose speed is slower than
your set speed is detected in front of you, your
vehicle starts to slow down.

■

When in Operation

When in Operation

If the vehicle detected ahead of you slows down
abruptly, or if another vehicle is detected cutting in
front of you, the beeper sounds and a message
appears on the driver information interface.

Depress the brake pedal, and keep an appropriate
interval from the vehicle ahead.

ACC Range: 394 ft. (120 m)

Driving

■

There is no vehicle ahead

Your vehicle maintains the set speed without
having to keep your foot on the brake or
accelerator pedal.
If there previously was a vehicle detected
ahead that kept your vehicle from traveling at
the set speed, ACC accelerates your vehicle to
the set speed, and then maintains it.

■

When you depress the accelerator pedal

You can temporarily increase the vehicle speed. In this case, there is no audible or
visual alerts even if a vehicle is in ACC range.
ACC stays on unless you cancel it. Once you release the accelerator pedal, the
system resumes the set speed.

When in Operation

Even if the interval between your vehicle and the
vehicle detected ahead is short, ACC may start
accelerating your vehicle under the following
circumstances:

•

The vehicle ahead of you is going at almost the
same speed as, or faster than, your vehicle.

•

A vehicle that cuts in front of you is going faster
than your vehicle, gradually increasing the interval
between the vehicles.

You can also set the system to beep when a vehicle in
front of you comes in and goes out of the ACC
detecting range. Change the

ACC Forward Vehicle

Detect Beep

setting.

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 vehicle is detected drifting out of its lane.

Lane 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.

Driver Information Interface Warning and
Information Messages

P. 96

The LKAS is convenient when it is used on
expressways or freeways.

Do not place objects on the instrument panel.
Objects may reflect on the 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.

The LKAS may not work properly or may work
improperly under the certain conditions:

LKAS Conditions and Limitations

P. 465

The LKAS may not function as designed while driving
in frequent stop and go traffic, or on roads with
sharp curves.

When you operate the turn signals to change 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 camera

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.

Honda Sensing

Lane Keeping Assist System (LKAS)

460

Driving

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.

When the vehicle enters the warning area, the LKAS alerts you with slight steering
wheel vibration as well as warning display.
