Lane Keeping Assist System (LKAS)

Driving

The system can be used when the following conditions are met.

•

The lane in which you are driving has detectable lane markers on both sides, and
your vehicle is in the center of the lane.

•

The vehicle is travelling between about 45 and 90 mph (72 and 145 km/h).

•

You are driving on a straight or slightly curved road.

•

The turn signals are off.

•

The brake pedal is not depressed.

•

The wipers are not in high speed operation.

■

How to activate the system

Press the

MAIN

button.

The LKAS is on in the driver information
interface.
The system is ready to use.

Press the LKAS button.

Lane outlines appear on the driver
information interface.
The system is activated.

■

When the System can be Used

Lane Keeping Assist System (LKAS)

If the vehicle drifts toward either left or right lane line
due to the system applying torque, turn off the LKAS
and have your vehicle checked by a dealer.

■

The system operation is suspended if
you:

•

Set the wipers to HI.

Turning the wipers off resumes the
LKAS.

•

Decrease the vehicle speed to about 40
mph (64 km/h) or less.

Increasing the vehicle speed to about 45
mph (72 km/h) or more resumes the
LKAS.

•

Depress the brake pedal.

The LKAS resumes and starts detecting
the lane lines again once you release the
brake pedal.

•

Your vehicle is driving to the right or the left
of the lane.

•

Set the wiper switch to

AUTO

and the

wipers operate continuously.

The LKAS resumes when the wipers stop
or operate intermittently.

When the LKAS is suspended,
the lane lines on the driver
information interface change
to lane outlines, and the
beeper sounds (if activated).

The LKAS may be automatically 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.

•

Once these conditions no longer exist, the LKAS automatically resumes.

■

The LKAS may be automatically canceled when:

•

The camera temperature gets extremely high or low.

•

The camera behind the rearview mirror, or the area around the camera, including
the windshield, gets dirty.

•

The ABS or VSA

system engages.

The beeper sounds if the LKAS is automatically canceled.

Road Departure Mitigation (RDM) System

Driving

Road Departure Mitigation (RDM) System

Alerts and helps to assist you when the system detects a possibility of your vehicle
unintentionally crossing over detected lane markings and/or leaving the roadway
altogether.

The front camera behind the rearview mirror
monitors left and right lane markings (in white
or yellow). If your vehicle is getting too close to
detected lane markings without a turn signal
activated, the system, in addition to a visual
alert, applies steering torque and alerts you
with rapid vibrations on the steering wheel, to
help you remain within the detected lane.

Customized Features

P. 327

As a visual alert, the

Lane Departure

message

appears on the driver information interface.

If the system determines that its steering input
is insufficient to keep your vehicle on the
roadway, it may apply braking.

Braking is applied only when the lane
markings are solid continuous lines.

The system cancels assisting operations when you turn the steering wheel to avoid
crossing over detected lane markings.

If the system operates several times without detecting driver response, the system
beeps to alert you.

■

How the System Works

Road Departure Mitigation (RDM) System

Important Safety Reminder

Like all assistance systems, the RDM system has
limitations.
Overreliance on the RDM system may result in a
collision. It is always your responsibility to keep the
vehicle within your driving lane.

The RDM system only alerts you when lane drift is
detected without a turn signal in use. The RDM
system may not detect all lane markings or lane or
roadway 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.

Front Sensor Camera

Driving

Front Sensor Camera

The camera, used in systems such as LKAS, RDM, ACC, and CMBS

, is designed to

detect an object that triggers any of the systems to operate its functions.

This camera is located behind the rearview
mirror.

To help reduce the likelihood that high interior
temperatures will cause the camera’s sensing
system to shut off, when parking, find a shady
area or face the front of the vehicle away from
the sun. If you use a reflective sun shade, do
not allow it to cover the camera housing.
Covering the camera can concentrate heat on
it.

■

Camera Location and Handling Tips

Front Sensor Camera

Never apply a film or attach any objects to the
windshield, the hood, or the front grille that could
obstruct the camera’s field of vision and cause the
system to operate abnormally.
Scratches, nicks, and other damage to the windshield
within the camera’s field of vision can cause the
system to operate abnormally. If this occurs, we
recommend that you replace the windshield with a
genuine Honda replacement windshield. Making
even minor repairs within the camera’s field of vision
or installing an aftermarket replacement windshield
may also cause the system to operate abnormally.
After replacing the windshield, have a dealer
recalibrate the camera. Proper calibration of the
camera is necessary for the system to operate
properly.

Do not place an object on the top of the instrument
panel. It may reflect onto the windshield and prevent
the system from detecting lane lines properly.
