Front Sensor Camera

This front sensor camera (
) is located behind the rearview mirror.
Handling of the Camera
- Avoid high interior temperatures to prevent the camera’s sensing system from shutting off.
- It is recommended to find a shady area or face the front of the vehicle away from the sun when parking.
- To avoid concentrating heat on the camera, do not cover the camera when using a reflective sun shade.
- 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.
- Do not scratch, nick, or cause any other damage to the windshield.
- Damage 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.
- After replacing the windshield, have a dealer recalibrate the camera. Proper calibration of the camera is necessary for the system to operate properly.
- 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.
- 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.
If the Some driver assist systems cannot operate: Camera temperature too high message appears:
- Use the climate control system to cool down the interior and, if necessary, also use defroster mode with the airflow directed toward 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 or poor viewing condition. message appears:
- Park your vehicle in a safe place, and make sure the windshield is clean. Clean the windshield if it is dirty.
- It may also appear in bad weather such as rain, fog, or snow, or when camera visibility is poor such as at night, in a tunnel, at dawn, or at dusk when the ambient conditions are dark.

If the message does not disappear after you’ve driven for a while, have your vehicle checked by a dealer.
