Driving Guidelines for Your Utility Vehicle  
■
NOTICE  
Utility vehicles have a significantly higher rollover rate than other types of vehicles.  
To prevent rollovers or loss of control:  
• Take corners at slower speeds than you would with a passenger vehicle.  
• Avoid sharp turns and abrupt maneuvers whenever possible.  
• Do not modify your vehicle in any way that you would raise the center of gravity.  
• Do not carry heavy cargo on the roof.  
Do not operate the shift lever while pressing the  
accelerator pedal. You could damage the  
transmission.  
NOTICE  
If you repeatedly turn the steering wheel at an  
extremely low speed, or hold the steering wheel in  
the full left or right position for a while, the electric  
power steering (EPS) system heats up. The system  
goes into a protective mode, and limits its  
Never carry more than 165 lbs (75 kg) of cargo on the roof rack (Honda accessory).  
performance. The steering wheel becomes harder  
and harder to operate. Once the system cools down,  
the EPS system is restored. Repeated operation under  
these conditions can eventually damage the system.  
In Rain  
■
Avoid driving in deep water and on flooded roads. This can damage the engine or  
driveline, or cause electrical component failure.  
If the ignition switch is turned to ACCESSORY (q*1  
while driving, the engine will shut down and all  
steering and brake power assist functions will stop,  
making it difficult to control the vehicle.  
Do not put the shift lever in (N, as you will lose  
engine braking (and acceleration) performance.  
During the first 600 miles (1,000 km) of operation,  
avoid sudden acceleration or full throttle operation so  
as to not damage the engine or powertrain.  
Avoid hard braking for the first 200 miles (300 km).  
You should also follow this when the brake pads are  
replaced.  
*1: Models with the smart entry system have an  
ENGINE START/STOP button instead of an ignition  
switch.

17-Speed Manual Shift Mode  
7-Speed Manual Shift Mode  
■
In the 7-speed manual shift mode, the transmission  
shifts up or down by operating either paddle shifter  
under the following conditions:  
Shift Up: The engine speed reaches the lowest  
threshold of the higher speed position.  
Use the paddle shifters to change between 1st and 7th speeds without removing  
your hands from the steering wheel. The transmission switches to the 7-speed  
manual shift mode when you pull a paddle shifter while driving. This mode is useful  
when engine braking is needed.  
Shift Down: The engine speed reaches the highest  
threshold of the lower speed position.  
■ When the shift lever is in (D:  
The shift mode goes into the 7-speed manual shift mode temporarily, and the  
number is displayed in the shift indicator.  
The 7-speed manual shift mode is canceled automatically if you drive at constant  
speed or accelerate, and the number in the shift indicator goes off.  
When the engine speed reaches near the  
tachometer’s red zone, the transmission shifts up  
automatically.  
When the engine speed reaches the lowest threshold  
of the selected speed position, the transmission shifts  
down automatically.  
You can cancel this mode by pulling the  
paddle shifter for a few seconds.  
The 7-speed manual shift mode is especially useful when reducing the vehicle speed  
temporarily before making a turn.  
Operating the paddle shifters on slippery surfaces  
may cause the tires to lock up. In this case, the 7-  
speed manual shift mode is canceled and goes back  
to the normal (D driving mode.  
■ When the shift lever is in (S:  
The shift mode goes into the 7-speed manual shift mode. The M indicator and the  
speed number are displayed in the shift indicator. As the vehicle speed slows down,  
the transmission automatically shifts down accordingly. When the vehicle comes to  
a stop, it automatically shifts down into 1st.  
If the vehicle speed increases and the engine speed reaches near the tachometer’s  
red zone, the transmission automatically shifts up.  
You can only pull away in 1st speed.  
When canceling the 7-speed manual shift mode, move the shift lever from (S to  
(D. When the 7-speed manual shift mode is canceled, the M indicator and shift  
indicator go off.

2 Customized Features P. 345  
• Do not cover the camera lens with labels or stickers  
of any kind.  
• Do not touch the camera lens.  
■ Reference Lines  
1Reference Lines  
Three lines that appear on the screen can give  
an idea of how far the vehicles or objects on  
the screen are from your vehicle, respectively.  
If an object is near line 1 (in red), it indicates  
that it is close to your vehicle whereas an  
object near line 3 is farther away.  
The area around the reference line 1 (red) is very close  
to your vehicle. As always, make sure to visually  
confirm the safety of a lane change before changing  
lanes.  
The distance between your vehicle and lines 1, 2 and  
3 on the screen vary depending on road conditions  
and vehicle loading. For example, the reference lines  
on the screen may seem to appear closer than the  
actual distances when the rear of your vehicle is more  
heavily loaded.  
Consult a dealer if:  
• The passenger side door mirror, or area around it is  
severely impacted, resulting in changing the  
camera angle.  
• The LaneWatch display does not come on at all.

1Real Time AWD with Intelligent Control SystemTM  
*
Your vehicle is equipped with the AWD system. When the system senses a loss of  
front wheel traction, it automatically transfers some power to the rear wheels. This  
allows you to utilize all available traction and may increase mobility.  
NOTICE  
Do not continuously spin the front tires of your  
vehicle. Continuously spinning the front tires can  
cause transmission or rear differential damage.  
You still need to exercise the same care when accelerating, steering, and braking  
that you would in a two wheel drive vehicle.  
The AWD system may not function properly if tire  
type and size are mixed. Make sure to use the same  
size and type of tire, and the air pressures as  
specified.  
If you excessively spin all four wheels and overheat the AWD system, only the front

1Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)  
U.S. models only  
Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)  
Instead of directly measuring the pressure in each tire, the TPMS on this vehicle monitors and  
compares the rolling radius and rotational characteristics of each wheel and tire while you are  
driving to determine if one or more tires are significantly under-inflated.  
The system does not monitor the tires when driving  
at low speed.  
This will cause the low tire pressure/TPMS  
indicator to come on and a message to appear  
on the multi-information display*.  
Low Tire Pressure/TPMS Indicator  
Conditions such as low ambient temperature and  
altitude change directly affect tire pressure and can  
trigger the low tire pressure/TPMS indicator to come  
on.  
*
Tire pressure checked and inflated in:  
• Warm weather can become under-inflated in  
colder weather.  
• Cold weather can become over-inflated in warmer  
weather.  
The low tire pressure/TPMS indicator will not come  
on as a result of over inflation.  
The TPMS may not function properly if tire type and  
size are mixed. Make sure to use the same size and  
type of tire.  
TPMS Calibration  
■
You must start TPMS calibration every time you:  
• Adjust the pressure in one or more tires.  
• Rotate the tires.  
2 Checking and Maintaining Tires P. 555  
The low tire pressure/TPMS indicator may come on  
with a delay or may not come on at all when:  
• You rapidly accelerate, decelerate, or turn the  
steering wheel.  
• You drive on snowy or slippery roads.  
• Snow chains are used.  
• Replace one or more tires.  
Before calibrating the TPMS:  
• Set the cold tire pressure in all four tires.  
2 Checking Tires P. 555  
Make sure:  
The low tire pressure/TPMS indicator may come on  
under the following conditions:  
• The vehicle is at a complete stop.

uuWhen DrivinguTire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) - Required Federal Explanation  
U.S. models  
Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) - Required  
Federal Explanation  
Each tire, including the spare (if provided), should be checked  
monthly when cold and inflated to the inflation pressure  
recommended by the vehicle manufacturer on the vehicle placard  
or tire inflation pressure label.  
(If your vehicle has tires of a different size than the size indicated  
on the vehicle placard or tire inflation pressure label, you should  
determine the proper tire inflation pressure for those tires.)  
As an added safety feature, your vehicle has been equipped with  
a tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS) that illuminates a low  
tire pressure telltale  
when one or more of your tires is significantly under-inflated.  
Accordingly, when the low tire pressure telltale illuminates, you  
should stop and check your tires as soon as possible, and inflate  
them to the proper pressure.  
Driving on a significantly under-inflated tire causes the tire to  
overheat and can lead to tire failure. Under-inflation also reduces  
fuel efficiency and tire tread life, and may affect the vehicle’s  
handling and stopping ability.  
458  
uuWhen DrivinguTire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) - Required Federal Explanation  
Please note that the TPMS is not a substitute for proper tire  
maintenance, and it is the driver’s responsibility to maintain  
correct tire pressure, even if under-inflation has not reached the  
level to trigger illumination of the TPMS low tire pressure telltale.  
Your vehicle has also been equipped with a TPMS malfunction  
indicator to indicate when the system is not operating properly.  
The TPMS malfunction indicator is combined with the low tire  
pressure telltale. When the system detects a malfunction, the  
telltale will flash for approximately one minute and then remain  
continuously illuminated. This sequence will continue upon  
subsequent vehicle start-ups as long as the malfunction exists.  
When the malfunction indicator is illuminated, the system may  
not be able to detect or signal low tire pressure as intended.  
TPMS malfunctions may occur for a variety of reasons, including  
the installation of replacement or alternate tires or wheels on the  
vehicle that prevent the TPMS from functioning properly.  
Always check the TPMS malfunction telltale after replacing one or  
more tires or wheels on your vehicle to ensure that the  
replacement or alternate tires and wheels allow the TPMS to  
continue to function properly.

Collision Mitigation Braking SystemTM (CMBSTM)  
1Collision Mitigation Braking SystemTM (CMBSTM  
)
Can assist you when there is a possibility of your vehicle colliding with a vehicle or a  
pedestrian detected in front of yours. The CMBSTM is designed to alert you when a  
potential collision is determined, as well as to reduce your vehicle speed to help  
minimize collision severity when a collision is deemed unavoidable.  
■ How the system works  
Important Safety Reminder  
The CMBSTM is designed to reduce the severity of an  
unavoidable collision. It does not prevent a collision  
nor stop the vehicle automatically. It is still your  
responsibility to operate the brake pedal and steering  
wheel appropriately according to the driving  
conditions.  
When to use  
The camera is  
located behind  
the rearview  
mirror.  
The CMBSTM may not activate or may not detect a  
vehicle in front of your vehicle under certain  
conditions:

For directions on the proper handling of the radar  
sensor, refer to the following page.  
2 Radar Sensor P. 502  
The radar sensor is  
in the front grille.  
1How the system works  
The system starts monitoring the roadway ahead when your vehicle speed is about  
3 mph (5 km/h) and there is a vehicle in front of you.  
Rapid vibrations on the steering wheel alert you  
when your vehicle speed is between 19 and 62 mph  
(30 and 100 km/h) with an oncoming vehicle  
detected in front of you.  
The CMBSTM activates when:  
●
The speed difference between your vehicle and a vehicle or pedestrian detected  
in front of you becomes about 3 mph (5 km/h) and over with a chance of a  
collision.  
Your vehicle speed is about 62 mph (100 km/h) or less and there is a chance of a

uuHonda Sensing®*uLane Keeping Assist System (LKAS)  
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.  
1Lane Keeping Assist System (LKAS)  
Important Safety Reminders  
The LKAS is for your convenience only. It is not a  
substitute for your vehicle control. The system does  
not work if you take your hands off the steering  
wheel or fail to steer the vehicle.  
■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.  
2 Multi-Information Display Warning and  
Information Messages* P. 100  
■Front sensor camera  
■Tactile and visual alerts  
Monitors the lane lines  
Do not place objects on the instrument panel.  
Objects may reflect on the front windshield and  
prevent correct detection of the traffic lanes.  
Rapid vibrations on the steering wheel  
and a warning display alert you that the  
vehicle is drifting out of a detected lane.  
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 is convenient when it is used on freeways.  
The LKAS may not work properly or may work  
improperly under the certain conditions:  
2 LKAS Conditions and Limitations P. 492  
You can read about handling information for the  
camera equipped with this system.  
2 Front Sensor Camera P. 500  
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.  
When it fails to detect lanes, the system will  
temporarily be canceled. When lane is detected,  
system will recover automatically.

uuHonda Sensing®*uRoad Departure Mitigation (RDM) System  
Road Departure Mitigation (RDM) System  
1Road 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.  
Important Safety Reminder  
Like all assistance systems, the RDM system has  
limitations.  
Over-reliance on the RDM system may result in a  
collision. It is always your responsibility to keep the  
vehicle within your driving lane.  
How the System Works  
■
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.  
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.  
2 Customized Features P. 123  
You can read about handling information for the  
camera equipped with this system.  
2 Front Sensor Camera P. 500  
As a visual alert, the Lane Departure  
message appears on the multi-information  
display.  
The RDM system may not work properly or may work  
improperly under the certain conditions:  
2 RDM Conditions and Limitations P. 498  
If the system determines that its steering input  
is insufficient to keep your vehicle on the  
roadway, it may apply braking.  
u Braking is applied only when the lane  
markings are solid continuous lines.  
There are times when you may not notice RDM  
functions due to your operation of the vehicle, or  
road surface conditions.  
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.

uuHonda Sensing®*uFront Sensor Camera  
Front Sensor Camera  
The camera, used in systems such as LKAS, RDM, ACC, and CMBSTM, is designed to  
detect an object that triggers any of the systems to operate its functions.  
1Front 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.  
Camera Location and Handling Tips  
■
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.  
This camera is located behind the rearview  
mirror.  
Front Sensor  
Camera  
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.  
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.  
500  
 
uuHonda Sensing®*uFront Sensor Camera  
1Front Sensor Camera  
If the Some Driver Assist Systems Cannot  
Operate: Camera Temperature Too High message

• Use the climate control system to cool down the  
interior and, if necessary, also use defroster mode  
with the airflow directed towards the camera.  
• Start driving the vehicle to lower the windshield  
temperature, which cools down the area around  
the camera.  
If the Some Driver Assist Systems Cannot  
Operate: Clean Front Windshield message  
appears:  
• Park your vehicle in a safe place, and clean the  
windshield. If the message does not disappear after

Avoid strong impacts to the radar sensor cover.  
For the CMBSTM to work properly:  
• Always keep the radar sensor cover clean.  
• Never use chemical solvents or polishing powder  
for cleaning the sensor cover. Clean it with water  
or a mild detergent.  
• Do not put a sticker on the radar sensor cover or  
replace the radar sensor cover.

situations, the radar sensor may not work properly.  
Have your vehicle checked by a dealer:  
• Your vehicle is involved in a frontal collision.  
• Your vehicle drives through deep water or is  
submerged in deep water.  
• Your vehicle strongly strikes a bump, curb, chock,  
or embankment that could jar the radar sensor.
