Honda Civic Owners Manual: With Little Chance of a Collision
The CMBSTM may activate even when you are aware of a vehicle ahead of you, or when there is no vehicle ahead. Some examples of this are:
When Passing

At an intersection
Your vehicle approaches or passes another vehicle that is making a left or right turn.
On a curve
When driving through curves, your vehicle comes to a point where an oncoming vehicle is right in front of you.
Through a low bridge at high speed
You drive under a low or narrow bridge at high speed.
Speed bumps, road work sites, train tracks, roadside objects, etc.
You drive over speed bumps, steel road plates, etc., or your vehicle approaches train tracks or roadside objects (such as a traffic sign and guard rail) on a curve or, when parking, stationary vehicles and walls.

Never use chemical solvents or polishing powder for cleaning the sensor cover. Clean it with water or a mild detergent. Do not paint, or apply any coverings or paint to the radar sensor area. This can impact CMBS operation. Have your vehicle checked by a dealer if you find any unusual behavior of the system (e.g., the warning message appears too frequently).
