Front Sensor Camera
The camera, used in systems such as Lane Keeping Assist System (LKAS), Road
Departure Mitigation System, Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) with Low Speed Follow
(LSF), and Collision Mitigation Braking System (CMBS), is designed to detect an
object that triggers any of the systems to operate its functions.

Camera Location and Handling Tips
Front Sensor
Camera
* Not available on all models
*
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.
uuWhen DrivinguFront Sensor Camera
1Front Sensor Camera
Never apply a film or attach any objects to the
windscreen, the bonnet, or the front grill that could
obstruct the camera's field of vision and cause the
system to operate abnormally.
Scratches, nicks, and other damage to the
windscreen within the camera's field of vision can
cause the system to operate abnormally. If this
occurs, we recommend that you replace the
windscreen with a genuine Honda replacement
windscreen. Making even minor repairs within the
camera's field of vision or installing an aftermarket
replacement windscreen may also cause the system
to operate abnormally.
After replacing the windscreen, 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 windscreen and prevent
the system from detecting lane lines properly.
