Event Data Recorders

This vehicle is equipped with an event data recorder (EDR). The main purpose of

an EDR is to record, in certain crash or near crash-like situations, such as an air
bag deployment or hitting a road obstacle, data that will assist in understanding
how a vehicle’s systems performed. The EDR is designed to record data related to

vehicle dynamics and safety systems for a short period of time, typically
30 seconds or less. The EDR in this vehicle is designed to record such data as:

• How various systems in your vehicle were operating;

• Whether or not the driver and passenger safety belts were buckled/fastened;

• How far (if at all) the driver was depressing the accelerator and/or brake
pedal; and,

• How fast the vehicle was traveling.

As required by the FCC:

This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC rules. Operation is subject to the
following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and
(2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that
may cause undesired operation.

Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for
compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.

As required by Industry Canada:

This device complies with Industry Canada licence-exempt RSS standard(s).
Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not
cause interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference, including
interference that may cause undesired operation of the device.

California Perchlorate Contamination Prevention Act

The airbags, seat belt tensioners, and CR-type batteries in this vehicle may
contain perchlorate materials—special handling may apply. See www.dtsc.
ca.gov/hazardouswaste/perchlorate/ for more information.

California Proposition 65 Warning

WARNING: This product contains or emits chemicals known to the state of

California to cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm.

These data can help provide a better understanding of the circumstances in
which crashes and injuries occur. NOTE: EDR data are recorded by your vehicle
only if a non-trivial crash situation occurs; no data are recorded by the EDR under
normal driving conditions and no personal data (e.g., name, gender, age, and
crash location) are recorded. However, other parties, such as law enforcement,
could combine the EDR data with the type of personally identifying data routinely
acquired during a crash investigation.

To read data recorded by an EDR, special equipment is required, and access to
the vehicle or the EDR is needed. In addition to the vehicle manufacturer, other
parties such as law enforcement that have the special equipment can read the
information if they have access to the vehicle or the EDR.

The data belong to the vehicle owner and may not be accessed by anyone else
except as legally required or with the permission of the vehicle owner.

Service Diagnostic Recorders

This vehicle is equipped with service-related devices that record information
about powertrain performance. The data can be used to verify emissions law
requirements and/or help technicians diagnose and solve service problems. It may
also be combined with data from other sources for research purposes, but
it remains confidential.

SAFETY INFORMATION

Your safety—and the safety of others—is very important, and operating this vehicle
safely is an important responsibility. While we strive to help you make informed
decisions about safety, it is not practical or possible to warn you about all the
hazards associated with operating or maintaining your vehicle. Therefore, you must
use your own good judgment.

Important Safety Information

This guide explains many of your vehicle’s safety features and how to use them.
Please read this information carefully. Following the instructions below will also help
to keep you and your passengers safe.

Important Safety Precautions

• Always wear your seat belt.

• Secure all children in the proper restraint system.

• Be aware of airbag hazards.

• Don’t drink and drive.

• Pay appropriate attention to the task of driving safely.

• Control your speed.

• Keep your vehicle in safe condition.

Engaging in cell phone conversation or other activities that keep you from paying
close attention to the road, other vehicles, and pedestrians could lead to a crash.
Remember, situations can change quickly, and only you can decide when it is safe
to divert some attention away from driving.

Safety Messages

When you see the following messages throughout this guide, pay close attention.

SAFETYSAFETY

Carbon Monoxide Gas

The engine exhaust from this vehicle contains carbon monoxide, a colorless,

odorless, and highly toxic gas. As long as you properly maintain your vehicle and

follow the instructions set forth below, you will not accumulate dangerous levels

of carbon monoxide gas in the vehicle interior.

Have the exhaust system inspected for leaks whenever:

• The exhaust system is making an unusual noise.

• The exhaust system may have been damaged.

• The vehicle is raised for an oil change.

When you operate a vehicle with the trunk open, airflow can pull exhaust gas

into the interior and create a hazardous condition. If you must drive with the trunk

open, open all the windows and set the climate control system as shown below.

1. Select the fresh air mode.

2. Select the

3. Set the fan speed to high.

4. Set the temperature control to a comfortable setting.

Adjust the climate control system in the same manner if you sit in your parked

vehicle with the engine running.

mode.

WARNING

Carbon monoxide gas is toxic. Breathing it can cause unconsciousness and
even kill you.

Avoid any enclosed areas or activities that expose you to carbon monoxide.

An enclosed area such as a garage can quickly fill up with carbon monoxide gas.

Do not run the engine with the garage door closed. Even when the garage door is

open, drive out of the garage immediately after starting the engine.

Seat Belts

A seat belt is your best protection in all types of collisions. Airbags are designed to
supplement seat belts, not replace them. So even though your vehicle is equipped
with airbags, make sure you and your passengers always wear your seat belts and
wear them properly.

Lap/Shoulder Seat Belts

All five seating positions are equipped with lap/shoulder seat belts with
emergency locking retractors. In normal driving, the retractor lets you move
freely while keeping some tension on the belt. During a collision or sudden stop,
the retractor locks to restrain your body. The rear seat belts also have a lockable
retractor for use with child seats.

The front seats are equipped with automatic seat belt tensioners to enhance
safety. The tensioners automatically tighten the front seat belts during a moderate
to severe frontal collision, sometimes even if the collision is not severe enough to
inflate the front airbags.

Proper Use of Seat Belts

Follow these guidelines for proper use:

• All occupants should sit upright, well back in the seat, and remain in that
position for the duration of the trip. Slouching and leaning reduce the
effectiveness of the belt and can increase the chance of serious injury in a
crash.

• Never place the shoulder part of a lap/shoulder seat belt under your arm or
behind your back. This could cause very serious injuries in a crash.

• Two people should never use the same seat belt. If they do, they could be very
seriously injured in a crash.

• Do not put any accessories on the seat belts. Devices intended to improve
comfort or reposition the shoulder part of a seat belt can reduce the protective
capability and increase the chance of serious injury in a crash.

• No one should sit in a seat with an inoperative seat belt or one that does not
appear to be working correctly. Using a seat belt that is not working properly
may not protect the occupant in a crash. Have a dealer check the belt as soon
as possible.

WARNING

Not wearing a seat belt properly increases the chance of a serious injury or
death in a crash, even though your vehicle has airbags.

Be sure you and your passengers always wear seat belts and wear them
properly.

Seat Belt Inspection

Regularly check the condition of your seat belts as follows:

• Pull each belt out fully, and look for frays, cuts, burns, and wear.

• Check that the latches and buckles work smoothly and the belts retract easily.
If a belt does not retract easily, cleaning the belt may correct the problem. Use
only mild soap and warm water. Do not use bleach or cleaning solvents. Make
sure the belt is completely dry before allowing it to retract.

Any belt that is not in good condition or working properly will not provide proper
protection and should be replaced as soon as possible.

A belt that has been worn during a crash may not provide the same level of
protection in a subsequent crash. Have your seat belts inspected by a dealer after
any collision.

WARNING

Not checking or maintaining seat belts can result in serious injury or death if
the seat belts do not work properly when needed.

Check your seat belts regularly and have any problem corrected as soon as
possible.

Fastening a Seat Belt

Adjust your seat to the proper position (see page 39), and then follow the below
steps.

1. Pull the seat belt out slowly.

2. Insert the latch plate into the buckle, then tug

on the belt to make sure the buckle is secure.
Make sure that the belt is not twisted or caught
on anything.

3. Position the lap part of the belt as low as possible
across your hips, then pull up on the shoulder
part of the belt so the lap part fits snugly. This lets

WARNING

Improperly positioning the seat belts can cause serious injury or death in a
crash.

Make sure all seat belts are properly positioned before driving.

Adjusting the Shoulder Anchor

The front seats have adjustable shoulder anchors to accommodate taller and
shorter occupants.

1. Move the anchor up and down while holding the
release button.

2. Position the anchor so that the belt rests across
the center of your chest and over your shoulder.

SAFETYSAFETY

Airbags

Your vehicle is equipped with three types of airbags: front airbags, side airbags, and
side curtain airbags.

Front Airbags (SRS)

The front SRS airbags inflate in a moderate-to-severe frontal collision to help
protect the head and chest of the driver and/or front passenger. They are housed
in the center of the steering wheel for the driver, and in the dashboard for the front
passenger. Both airbags are marked SRS AIRBAG.

SRS (Supplemental Restraint System) indicates that the airbags are designed to
supplement seat belts, not replace them. Seat belts are the occupant’s primary
restraint system.

Advanced Airbags

Your front airbags have advanced features to help reduce the likelihood of airbag­related injuries to smaller occupants.

The driver’s advanced front airbag system includes
a seat position sensor. Based on the seat position
and crash severity, the system determines the
optimal deployment of the driver’s airbag.

If there is a problem with the driver’s seat position
sensor, the SRS indicator will come on and the
airbag will inflate with full (normal) force, regardless
of the driver’s seating position.

The passenger’s advanced front airbag system
has weight sensors. Although Honda recommends
against carrying an infant or small child in front, if
the sensors detect the weight of a child (up to 65 lbs
or 29 kg), the system will automatically turn off the

Passenger’s

sensors

passenger’s front airbag.

For both advanced front airbags to work properly:

• Do not spill any liquid on or under the seats.

• Do not put any object under the passenger’s seat.

• Make sure any objects are positioned properly on the floor. Improperly
positioned objects can interfere with the advanced airbag sensors.

• All occupants should sit upright and wear their seat belts properly.

• Do not place any cover over any part of the passenger side dashboard.

Side Airbags

The side airbags help protect the upper torso and pelvis of the driver or a front
passenger during a moderate-to-severe side impact. They are housed in the
outside edge of the driver’s and front passenger’s seat-backs. Both are marked

SIDE AIRBAG.

Side Curtain Airbags

Side curtain airbags help protect the heads of the driver and passengers in outer
seating positions during a moderate-to-severe side impact. The side curtain
airbags equipped in this vehicle are also designed to help reduce the likelihood
of partial and complete ejection of vehicle occupants through side windows in
crashes, particularly rollover crashes.

The side curtain airbags are located in the ceiling
above the side windows on both sides of the
vehicle.

The side curtain airbags are designed to deploy
in a rollover or moderate-to-severe side impact.
If the SRS control unit senses that your vehicle is

Side curtain airbag storage

about to roll over, it immediately deploys both side
curtain airbags and activates both front seat belt
tensioners. If the impact is on the passenger’s side,
the passenger’s side curtain airbag deploys even if
there is no passenger in the passenger’s seat.

Deployed side curtain airbag

To get the best protection from the side curtain airbags, occupants should wear
their seat belts properly and sit upright and well back in their seats.

Do not attach any objects to the side windows or roof pillars, as they can interfere
with the proper operation of the side curtain airbags.

When side curtain airbags deploy in a frontal collision

One or both side curtain airbags may inflate in a moderate-to-severe angled
frontal collision. In this case, the side curtain airbags will deploy slightly after the
front airbags.

Important Facts About Your Airbags

Always wear your seat belt properly, and sit upright and as far back from the
steering wheel as possible while allowing full control of the vehicle. A front
passenger should move their seat as far back from the dashboard as possible.

Do not place hard or sharp objects between yourself and a front airbag. Carrying
hard or sharp objects on your lap, or driving with a pipe or other sharp object in
your mouth, can result in injuries if your front airbag inflates.

Do not attach or place objects on the front airbag covers. Objects on the covers
marked SRS AIRBAG could interfere with the proper operation of the airbags or be
propelled inside the vehicle and hurt someone if the airbags inflate.

Do not attach accessories on or near the side airbags. They can interfere with the
proper operation of the airbags, or hurt someone if an airbag inflates.

Do not attach any objects to the side windows or roof pillars. They can interfere
with the proper operation of the side curtain airbags.

Do not cover or replace the front seat-back covers. This can prevent your side
airbags from properly deploying during a side impact.

WARNING

An open glove box can cause serious injury to your passenger in a crash,
even if the passenger is wearing the seat belt.

Always keep the glove box closed while driving.

Airbag System Indicators

If a problem occurs in the airbag system, the SRS indicator comes on and a
message appears on the multi-information display*.

Passenger airbag off indicator

The indicator comes on to alert you that the front
passenger’s front airbag has been turned off. This
occurs when the front passenger’s weight sensors
detect 65 lbs (29 kg) or less, the weight of an infant
or small child, on the seat.

Infants and small children should always ride
properly restrained in a back seat.

Objects placed on the seat can also cause the indicator to come on.

If the front passenger‘s seat is empty, the passenger’s front airbag will not deploy
and the indicator will not come on.

If the indicator comes on with no occupant or objects in the front passenger’s
seat, something may be interfering with the weight sensors, such as:

• An object hanging on the seat or in the seat-back pocket.

• A child seat or other object pressing against the rear of the seat-back.

• A rear passenger pushing or pulling on the back of the front passenger’s seat.

• The front seat or seat-back is forced against an object on the seat or floor
behind it.

• An object placed under the front passenger’s seat.

If none of these conditions exist, have your vehicle checked by a dealer as soon
as possible.

The passenger airbag off indicator may go on and off repeatedly if the total weight
on the seat is near the airbag cutoff threshold.

SRS (Supplemental Restraint System) indicator

If the indicator comes on at any other time besides
vehicle start-up, or does not come on at all, have the
system checked by a dealer as soon as possible. If
you don’t, your airbags and seat belt tensioners may
not work properly when they are needed.

WARNING

Ignoring the SRS indicator can result in serious injury or death if the airbag
systems or tensioners do not work properly.

Have your vehicle checked by a dealer as soon as possible if the SRS
indicator alerts you to a possible problem.

5

Automatic front seat belt tensioners. The driver’s and front passenger’s seat

belts incorporate sensors that detect whether or not they are fastened.

6

A driver’s seat position sensor. If the seat is too far forward, the airbag will

inflate with less force.

7

Weight sensors in the front passenger’s seat. The front passenger’s airbag

will be turned off if the weight on the seat is 65 lbs (29 kg) or less (the weight
of an infant or small child).

8

Impact sensors that can detect a moderate-to-severe front or side impact.

9

An indicator on the dashboard that alerts you that the front passenger’s front

airbag has been turned off.

10

12

A rollover sensor that detects whether the vehicle is about to roll over and signal

the control unit to deploy both side curtain airbags.

Airbag Care

You do not need to, and should not, perform any maintenance on or replace any
airbag system components yourself. However, you should have your vehicle
inspected by a dealer in the following situations:

When the airbags have deployed

If an airbag has inflated, the control unit and other related parts must be replaced.
Similarly, once an automatic seat belt tensioner has been activated, it must be
replaced.

When the vehicle has been in a moderate-to-severe collision

Even if the airbags did not inflate, have your dealer inspect the following: the
driver’s seat position sensor, weight sensors in the passenger’s seat, front seat
belt tensioners, and each seat belt that was worn during the crash.

Do not remove or modify a front seat without first consulting a dealer

This would likely disable the driver’s seat position sensor or the weight sensors

SAFETYSAFETY

Child Safety

Each year, many children are injured or killed in vehicle crashes because they are
either unrestrained or not properly restrained. In fact, vehicle collisions are the
number one cause of death of children ages 12 and under.

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration and Transport Canada
recommend that all children ages 12 and under be properly restrained in a rear seat.
Some states or provinces/territories have laws restricting where children may ride.

To reduce the number of child deaths and injuries, every state, Canadian province
and territory requires that infants and children be properly restrained when they ride
in a vehicle.

Protecting Child Passengers

• An inflating front or side airbag can injure or kill a child sitting in the front seat.

• A child in the front seat is more likely to interfere with the driver’s ability to
safely control the vehicle.

• Statistics show that children of all sizes and ages are safer when they are
properly restrained in a rear seat.

• Any child who is too small to wear a seat belt correctly must be restrained in an
approved child seat that is properly secured to the vehicle using either the lap
belt portion of the lap/shoulder belt or the lower anchors of the LATCH system.

• Never hold a child on your lap because it is impossible to protect them in the
event of a collision.

• Never put a seat belt over yourself and a child. During a crash, the belt would
likely press deep into the child and cause serious or fatal injuries.

• Never let two children use the same seat belt. Both children could be very
seriously injured in a crash.

• Do not allow children to operate the doors, windows, or seat adjusters.

• Do not leave children in the vehicle unattended, especially in hot weather when
the inside of the vehicle can get hot enough to kill them. They could also activate
vehicle controls, causing it to move unexpectedly.

WARNING

Children who are unrestrained or improperly restrained can be seriously
injured or killed in a crash.

Any child too small for a seat belt should be properly restrained in a child
seat. A larger child should be properly restrained with a seat belt, using a
booster seat if necessary.

WARNING

Allowing a child to play with a seat belt or wrap one around their neck can
result in serious injury or death.

Instruct children not to play with any seat belt and make sure any unused
seat belt a child can reach is buckled, fully retracted, and locked.

Protecting Infants

An infant must be properly restrained in a rear-facing, reclining child seat until the
infant reaches the seat maker’s weight or height limit for the seat, and the infant
is at least one year old. Many experts recommend use of a rear-facing seat for
a child up to two years old if the child’s height and weight are appropriate for a
rear-facing seat.

Child seats must be placed and secured in a rear
seating position. Rear-facing child seats should
never be installed in a forward-facing position.

When properly installed, a rear-facing child seat may prevent the driver or a front
passenger from moving their seat all the way back, or from locking their seat-back
in the desired position. If this occurs, we recommend that you install the child
seat directly behind the front passenger’s seat, move the seat as far forward as
needed, and leave it unoccupied. Or, you may wish to get a smaller rear-facing
child seat.

WARNING

Placing a rear-facing child seat in the front seat can result in serious injury or
death during a crash.

Always place a rear-facing child seat in the rear seat, not the front.

Protecting Smaller Children

If a child is at least one year old and within the weight range indicated by the child
seat manufacturer, the child should be properly restrained in a firmly secured
forward-facing child seat.

We strongly recommend placing a forward-facing
child seat in a rear seating position.

Placing a forward-facing child seat in the front seat
can be hazardous, even with advanced front airbags
that automatically turn the passenger’s front airbag
off. A rear seat is the safest place for a child.

WARNING

Placing a forward-facing child seat in the front seat can result in serious
injury or death if the front airbag inflates.

If you must place a forward-facing child seat in front, move the vehicle seat
as far back as possible, and properly restrain the child.

Selecting a Child Seat

Most child seats are LATCH-compatible (Lower Anchors and Tethers for CHildren).
Some have a rigid-type connector, while others have a flexible-type connector.
Both are equally easy to use. Some existing and previously owned child seats can
only be installed using the seat belt. Whichever type you choose, follow the child
seat manufacturer’s use and care instructions as well as the instructions in this
manual. Proper installation is key to maximizing your child’s safety.

In seating positions and vehicles not equipped with LATCH, a LATCH-compatible
child seat can be installed using the seat belt and a top tether for added security.
This is because all child seats are required to be designed so that they can be
secured with a lap belt or the lap part of a lap/shoulder belt. In addition, the
child seat manufacturer may advise that a seat belt be used to attach a LATCH­compatible seat once a child reaches a specified weight. Please read the child
seat owner’s manual for proper installation instructions.

Installing a LATCH-Compatible Child Seat

A LATCH-compatible child seat can be installed in either of the two outer rear
seats. A child seat is attached to the lower anchors with either the rigid or flexible
type of connectors.

1. Locate the lower anchors under the marks.

2. Place the child seat on the vehicle seat, then
attach the child seat to the lower anchors
according to the instructions that came with the
child seat. Make sure that the lower anchors
are not obstructed by the seat belt or any other
object.

3. Open the tether anchor cover behind the head
restraint.

4. Raise the head restraint to its highest position,
then route the tether strap between the head
restraint legs, and secure the tether strap hook
onto the anchor.

5. Tighten the tether strap according to the seat
maker’s instructions.

6. Make sure the child seat is firmly secured by
rocking it forward and back and side to side; little
movement should be felt.

7. Make sure any unused seat belt that a child
can reach is buckled, the lockable retractor
is activated, and the belt is fully retracted and
locked.

Important considerations when selecting a child seat

Make sure the child seat meets the following three requirements:

• The child seat is the correct type and size for the child.

• The child seat is the correct type for the seating position.

• The child seat is compliant with Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard 213 or
Canadian Motor Vehicle Safety Standard 213.

Installing a Child Seat with a Lap/Shoulder Seat Belt

1. Place the child seat on the vehicle seat.

2. Route the seat belt through the child seat

according to the seat manufacturer’s
instructions, and insert the latch plate into the
buckle. Insert the latch plate fully until it clicks.

3. Slowly pull the shoulder part of the belt all the

way out until it stops. This activates the lockable
retractor.

4. Let the seat belt retract a few inches, then try to

pull it out to make sure the retractor is locked.
If you are able to pull the shoulder belt out, the
lockable retractor is not activated. Pull the seat
belt all the way out, and repeat steps 3 – 4.

5. Grab the shoulder part of the seat belt near the

buckle, and pull up to remove any slack from
the lap part of the belt. When doing this, place
your weight on the child seat and push it into the
vehicle seat.

6. Make sure the child seat is firmly secured by

rocking it forward and back and side to side; little
movement should be felt.

Adding Security with a Tether

A tether anchorage point is provided behind each rear seating position. A child
seat that is installed with a seat belt and comes with a tether can use the tether
for additional security.

1. Locate the appropriate tether anchorage point
and lift the cover.

2. Raise the head restraint to its highest position,
then route the tether strap through the head
restraint legs. Make sure the strap is not twisted.

3. Secure the tether strap hook onto the anchor.

4. Tighten the tether strap according to the seat
manufacturer’s instructions.

7. Make sure any unused seat belt that a child
can reach is buckled, the lockable retractor
is activated, and the belt is fully retracted and
locked.

To deactivate a lockable retractor, release the buckle and allow the seat belt to

wind up all the way.

Protecting Larger Children

When a child is too big for a child seat, secure the child in a rear seat using the
lap/shoulder seat belt.

Have the child sit upright and all the way back, then ensure the following:

• The child’s knees bend comfortably over the edge

of the seat.

• The shoulder belt crosses between the child’s

neck and arm.

• The lap part of the seat belt is as low as possible,

touching the child’s thighs.

• The child can stay seated for the whole trip.

If a lap/shoulder belt cannot be used properly, position the child in a booster seat
in a rear seating position. For the child’s safety, check that the child meets the
booster seat manufacturer’s recommendations.

Some U.S. states and Canadian provinces/territories require children to use a
booster seat until they reach a given age or weight (e.g., 6 years or 60 lbs). Be sure
to check current laws in the state or province/territory where you intend to drive.

WARNING

Allowing a child age 12 or under to sit in the front can result in injury or death
if the passenger’s front airbag inflates.

If a larger child must ride in front, move the vehicle seat as far to the rear as
possible, then have the child sit up properly and wear the seat belt properly,
using a booster seat if needed.

WARNING

Sitting improperly or out of position can result in serious injury or death in a
crash.

Always sit upright, well back in the seat, with your feet on the floor.

Floor Mats

Position the front- and rear-seat floor mats properly,
and anchor them. If they are not properly positioned,
the floor mats can interfere with the front seat
functions.

Do not put additional floor mats on top of the
anchored mats.

Adjusting the Head Restraints

Your vehicle is equipped with head restraints in all seating positions. Head
restraints are most effective for protection against whiplash and other rear-impact
crash injuries.

The center of the back of the occupant’s head
should rest against the center of the restraint. The
tops of the occupant’s ears should be level with the
center height of the restraint.

To raise the head restraint: Pull it upward.

To lower the head restraint: Push it down while

pressing the release button.

To remove the head restraint: Pull the restraint up
as far as it will go. Then push the release button,
and pull the restraint up and out.

To reinstall a head restraint: Insert the legs back
in place, then adjust the head restraint to an
appropriate height while pressing the release
button. Pull up on the restraint to make sure it is
locked in position.

For a head restraint system to work properly:

• Do not hang any items on the head restraints, or from the restraint legs.

• Do not place any object between an occupant and the seat-back.

• Install each restraint in its proper location.

WARNING

Improperly positioning head restraints reduces their effectiveness and
increases the likelihood of serious injury in a crash.

Make sure head restraints are in place and positioned properly before driving.

WARNING

Failure to reinstall, or correctly reinstall, the head restraints can result in
severe injury during a crash.

Always replace the head restraints before driving.

DRIVINGDRIVING

DRIVING

Learn about preparation for driving, as well as other features.

Before Driving

Check the following items before you begin driving.

Exterior Checks

• Make sure there are no obstructions on the windows, door mirrors, exterior
lights, or other parts of the vehicle.

• Remove any frost, snow, or ice.

• Make sure the hood is securely closed.

• Heat from the engine and exhaust can ignite flammable materials left under
the hood, causing a fire. If you’ve parked your vehicle for an extended period,
inspect and remove any debris that may have collected, such as dried grass
and leaves that have fallen or have been carried in for use as a nest by a small
animal. Also check under the hood for leftover flammable materials after you or
someone else has performed maintenance on your vehicle.

• Make sure the tires are in good condition.

• Make sure there are no people or objects behind or around the vehicle.

NOTICE

If the doors are frozen shut, use warm water around the door edges to melt any
ice. Do not try to force them open, as this can damage the rubber trim around the
doors. When done, wipe dry to avoid further freezing.

In addition:

• During the first 600 miles (1,000 km) of operation, avoid sudden acceleration or
full throttle operation so as not to 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.

WARNING

Improper accessories or modifications can affect your vehicle’s handling, and
stability, and performance, and cause a crash in which you can be seriously
hurt or killed.

Follow all instructions in the vehicle owner’s manual regarding accessories
and modifications.

Interior Checks

• Store or secure all items on board properly.

• Do not pile items higher in the cargo area than the seat-back height.

• Do not place anything in the front seat footwells. Make sure to secure the floor
mats.

• If you have any animals on board, do not let them move freely around in the
vehicle.

• Securely close and lock all doors and the trunk.

• Adjust your seating position, mirrors, and steering wheel properly.

• Make sure items placed on the floor behind the front seats cannot roll under the
seats.

• Everyone in the vehicle must fasten their seat belt.

• Make sure that the indicators in the instrument panel come on when you start
the vehicle, and go off soon after.

Load limits example

Example 1

Max load

850 lbs

(385 kg)

Passenger weight
150 lbs x 2 = 300 lbs
(68 kg x 2 = 136 kg)

Cargo weight

550 lbs

(249 kg)

Example 2

Max load

850 lbs

(385 kg)

Passenger weight
150 lbs x 5 = 750 lbs
(68 kg x 5 = 340 kg)

Cargo weight

100 lbs
(45 kg)

Maximum Load Limit

Carrying too much cargo or improperly storing it can affect your vehicle’s handling,
stability, stopping distance, and tires, and make it unsafe.

The maximum load for your vehicle is 850 lbs (385 kg). See the Tire and Loading
Information label on the driver’s doorjamb.

Label example

WARNING

This figure includes the total weight of all occupants, cargo, and
accessories, and the tongue load if you are towing a trailer. Below are the
steps for determining the correct load limit:

1. Locate the statement “The combined weight of occupants and cargo
should never exceed XXX kg or XXX lbs.” on your vehicle’s placard.

2. Determine the combined weight of the driver and passengers that will be
riding in your vehicle.

3. Subtract the combined weight of the driver and passengers from XXX kg
or XXX lbs.

4. The resulting figure equals the available amount of cargo and luggage
load capacity. For example, if the “XXX” amount equals 1,400 lbs. and
there will be five 150 lb. passengers in your vehicle, the amount of
available cargo and luggage load capacity is 650 lbs. (1,400 - 750 (5 x 150)
= 650 lbs.)

5. Determine the combined weight of luggage and cargo being loaded on
the vehicle. That weight may not safely exceed the available cargo and
luggage load capacity calculated in step 4.

6. If your vehicle will be towing a trailer, load from your trailer will be
transferred to your vehicle. Consult the Owner’s Manual on the Owner
Information CD or at owners.honda.com (U.S.) or myhonda.ca (Canada)
to determine how this reduces the available cargo and luggage load
capacity of your vehicle.

In addition, the total weight of the vehicle, all occupants, accessories,
cargo, and trailer tongue load must not exceed the Gross Vehicle Weight
Rating (GVWR) or the Gross Axle Weight Rating (GAWR). Both are on a label
on the driver’s doorjamb.

96 | | 97

Overloading or improper loading can affect handling and stability and cause a
crash in which you can be hurt or killed.

Follow all load limits and other loading guidelines in this guide.

The headlight aim on your vehicle was set by the factory, and does not need to be
adjusted. However, if you regularly carry heavy items in the trunk or tow a trailer,

Tongue Load

Towing a Trailer

Your vehicle can tow a trailer if you carefully observe the load limits, use the proper
equipment, and follow the towing guidelines. See the Owner’s Manual on the Owner
Information CD or visit owners.acura.com (U.S.) or myacura.com (Canada) for more
information.

Total Trailer Weight

Maximum allowable weight of the trailer, cargo, and
everything in or on it must not exceed 1,000 lbs (450
kg). Towing loads in excess of this can seriously
affect vehicle handling and performance and can
damage the engine and drivetrain.

Tongue Load

The weight of the tongue with a fully loaded trailer
on the hitch should be approximately 10% of the
total trailer weight.

• Excessive tongue load reduces front tire traction
and steering control. Too little tongue load can
make the trailer unstable and cause it to sway.

• To achieve a proper tongue load, start by loading
60% of the load toward the front of the trailer and
40% toward the rear. Readjust the load as needed.

Pre-tow Checklist

When preparing to tow, and before driving away, ensure the following:

• The vehicle has been properly serviced, and the suspension and the cooling
system are in good operating condition.

• Avoid towing a trailer during your vehicle’s first 600 miles (1,000 km).

• The trailer has been properly serviced and is in good condition.

• All weights and loads are within limits. Never exceed the gross weight ratings.

• Check if all loads are within limits at a public scale. If a public scale is not
available, add the estimated weight of your cargo load to the weight of your
trailer (as quoted by the manufacturer) and the tongue load.

• The hitch, safety chains, and any other attachments are secure.

• All items in or on the trailer are properly secured and cannot shift while you drive.

• Trailer lights and brakes work properly.

• Trailer tire pressures (including spare tire) are correct.

message appears on the multi-information display*.

What to Do

Stop your vehicle in a safe place. Check the tire
pressure and adjust the pressure to the specified
level on the label on the driver’s doorjamb.

TPMS Calibration

Any time you inflate, change, or rotate one or more of the tires, you need to
recalibrate the system. The calibration process requires approximately 30 minutes
of cumulative driving at speeds between 30–60 mph (48–97 km/h). The vehicle
must be steopped to begin calibration, and the process finishes automatically.

Using the TPMS button*

Press and hold the TPMS button near the steering
wheel. The TPMS indicator blinks twice, and
calibration begins.

Using the Settings menu*

Use the selector knob or the touchscreen to make and enter selections.

NOTICE

Driving on an extremely underinflated tire can cause it to overheat. An overheated
tire can fail. Always inflate your tires to the specified pressure.

Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) - Required Federal Explanation

U.S. models

Each tire, including the spare (if provided), should be checked monthly
when cold and inflated to the inflation pressure recommended by the

Changing a Flat Tire

If a tire goes flat while driving, grasp the steering wheel firmly, and brake gradually
to reduce speed. Then, stop in a safe place. Replace the flat tire with the compact
spare tire. Go to a dealer as soon as possible to have the full-size tire repaired or
replaced.

Getting Ready to Change the Tire

Park the vehicle on a firm, level, non-slippery surface. Apply the parking brake,
shift to Park (P), and turn the vehicle off. Turn on the hazard warning lights.

vehicle manufacturer on the vehicle placard or tire inflation pressure
label.

1. Open the trunk floor lid.

(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 underinflated.

2. Take the tool case out of the trunk. Take the jack
and wheel nut wrench out of the tool case.

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.

3. Unscrew the wing bolt, then remove the spacer
cone. Remove the spare tire.

Driving on a significantly underinflated tire causes the tire to overheat and
can lead to tire failure. Underinflation also reduces fuel efficiency and tire
tread life, and may affect the vehicle’s handling and stopping ability.

Please note that the TPMS is not a substitute for proper tire maintenance,

4. Place the compact spare tire (wheel side up)
under the vehicle body, near the tire that needs
to be replaced.

and it is the driver’s responsibility to maintain correct tire pressure, even
if underinflation 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.

Setting Up the Jack

1. Place the jack under the jacking point closest to
the tire to be changed.

2. Turn the end bracket clockwise (as shown in
the image) until the top of the jack contacts the
jacking point. Make sure that the jacking point
tab is resting in the jack notch.

3. Raise the vehicle, using the jack handle bar and
the jack handle, until the tire is off the ground.

WARNING

The vehicle can easily roll off the jack, seriously injuring anyone underneath.

Follow the directions for changing a tire exactly, and never get under the
vehicle when it is supported only by the jack.

The following instructions must be followed to use the jack safely:

• Do not use the jack with people or luggage in the vehicle.

• Use the jack provided in your vehicle. Other jacks may not support the weight

(“load”) or fit the jacking point.

• Do not use while the engine is running.

• Use only where the ground is firm and level.

• Use only at the jacking points.

• Do not get in the vehicle while using the jack.

• Do not put anything on top of or underneath the jack.

Replacing the Flat Tire

1. Remove the wheel nuts and flat tire.

2. Mount the compact spare tire. Replace the
wheel nuts, and lightly tighten them.

3. Lower the vehicle and remove the jack. Tighten
the wheel nuts in the order indicated in the
image. Go around, tightening the nuts, two to
three times in this order. Do not overtighten the
wheel nuts.

If you drive with the spare tire installed, the
low tire pressure/TPMS indicator appears. The
indicator stays on until a regular tire is installed.

Storing the Flat Tire

1. Remove the center cap.

2. Open the trunk. Place the flat tire face down in
the spare tire well.

3. Remove the spacer cone from the wing bolt, flip
it over, and insert it back on the bolt. Secure the
flat tire with the wing bolt.

4. Securely put the jack and wheel nut wrench back
in the tool case. Store the case in the trunk.

WARNING

Loose items can fly around the interior in a crash and can seriously injure the
occupants.

Store the wheel, jack, and tools securely before driving.

Tire Information

To safely operate your vehicle, your tires must be of the proper type and size, in good
condition with adequate tread, and properly inflated.

Inflation Guidelines

• Properly inflated tires provide the best combination of handling, tread life, and
comfort. Refer to the driver’s doorjamb label or the specifications (see page

148) for the specified pressure.

• Underinflated tires wear unevenly, adversely affect handling and fuel economy,
and are more likely to fail from overheating.

• Overinflated tires make your vehicle ride harshly, are more prone to road
hazards, and wear unevenly.

• Every day before you drive, look at each of the tires. If one looks lower than the
others, check the pressure with a tire gauge.

• Measure the air pressure when tires are cold. This means the vehicle has been
parked for at least 3 hours, or driven less than 1 mile (1.6 km). If necessary, add
or release air until the specified pressure is reached, and then calibrate the
system (see page 121). If checked when hot, tire pressure can be as much as
4–6 psi (30–40 kPa, 0.3–0.5 kgf/cm

• At least once a month or before long trips, use a gauge to measure the pressure
in all tires, including the spare. Even tires in good condition can lose 1–2 psi
(10–20 kPa, 0.1–0.2 kgf/cm

Inspection Guidelines

Every time you inflate the tires, check for the following:

• Any damage to tires, including bumps, bulges, cuts, splits, or cracks in the side
or tread. Remove any foreign objects and inspect for air leaks. Replace tires if
you see fabric or cord.

• Uneven or excessive tread wear. Have a dealer check the wheel alignment.

• Cracks or other damage around the valve stems.

Wear Indicators

The groove where the wear indicator is located is
1/16 inch (1.6 mm) shallower than elsewhere on the
tire. If the tread has worn so low that the indicator is
exposed, replace the tire. Worn out tires have poor

traction on wet roads.

WARNING

Using tires that are excessively worn or improperly inflated can cause
a crash in which you can be seriously hurt or killed.

Follow all instructions in this owner’s manual regarding tire inflation
and maintenance

Tire Service Life

The life of your tires is dependent on many factors, including driving habits, road
conditions, vehicle loading, inflation pressure, maintenance history, speed, and
environmental conditions (even when the tires are not in use).

In addition to regular inspections and inflation pressure maintenance, it is
recommended that you have annual inspections performed once the tires reach
five years old. All tires, including the spare, should be removed from service after
10 years from the date of manufacture, regardless of their condition or state of
wear.

Winter Tires

If driving on snowy or frozen roads, mount all season tires marked “M+S”, snow
tires, or tire chains; reduce speed; and maintain sufficient distance between
vehicles when driving. For winter tires, select the size and load ranges that are the
same as the original tires, and mount them to all four wheels.

Tire Chains

Install tire chains on the front tires only. Because your vehicle has limited tire
clearance, we strongly recommend using the following chains:

For 205/65R16 tires:
Cable-type: SCC Radial Chain SC1034

For 215/55R17 tires:
Cable-type: SCC Radial Chain SC1036

For 235/40R19 tires:
Cable-type: SCC Radial Chain SC1040

Tire and Wheel Replacement

Replace your tires with radials of the same size, load range, speed rating, and
maximum cold tire pressure rating (as shown on the tire’s sidewall). Using tires
of a different size or construction can cause certain vehicle systems to work
incorrectly. It is best to replace all four tires at the same time. If that isn’t possible,
replace the front or rear tires in pairs.

If you change or replace a wheel, make sure that the wheel’s specifications match
those of the original wheels. Only use TPMS-specified wheels approved for your
vehicle.

WARNING

Installing improper tires on your vehicle can affect handling and stability.

This can cause a crash in which you can be seriously hurt or killed.

Always use the size and type of tires recommended in the Owner’s Manual.

142 | | 143

Mount chains as tightly as you can, and make sure that they do not touch the
brake lines or suspension.

NOTICE

Traction devices that are the wrong size or improperly installed can damage your
vehicle’s brake lines, suspension, body, and wheels. Stop driving if they are hitting
any part of the vehicle.

WARNING

Using the wrong chains, or not properly installing chains, can damage the
brake lines and cause a crash in which you can be seriously injured or killed.

Follow all instructions in this guide regarding the selection and use of tire
chains.

Tire Labeling

The tires that came on your vehicle have a number of markings. Those you
should be aware of are described below.

Here is an example of what each marking means:

DOT Tire Quality Grading

The tires on your vehicle meet all U.S. Federal Safety Requirements. All tires are
also graded for treadwear, traction, and temperature performance according
to Department of Transportation (DOT) standards. The following explains these
gradings.

P215/55R17 94V

• P: vehicle type (passenger vehicle)

• 215: tire width in millimeters

Uniform Tire Quality Grading

Quality grades can be found where applicable on the tire sidewall between tread
shoulder and maximum section width.

• 55: aspect ratio (tire section height as a
percentage of its width)

• R: tire construction code (radial)

• 17: rim diameter in inches

• 94: load index (code indicating maximum load
tire can carry)

• V: speed symbol (code indicating maximum speed rating)

Tire Identification Number (TIN)

The tire identification number
(TIN) is a group of numbers
and letters that look like the
example below. TIN is located
on the sidewall of the tire.

Glossary of Tire Terminology

Cold Tire Pressure – The tire air pressure when the vehicle has been
parked for at least three hours or driven less than 1 mile (1.6 km).

Load Rating – The maximum load that a tire is rated to carry for a given
inflation pressure.

For example:

Treadwear 200
Traction AA
Temperature A

All passenger car tires must conform to Federal Safety Requirements in addition
to these grades.

Treadwear

The treadwear grade is a comparative rating based on the wear rate of the tire
when tested under controlled conditions on a specified government test course.
For example, a tire graded 150 would wear one and one-half (1 1/2) times as well
on the government course as a tire graded 100. The relative performance of
tires depends upon the actual conditions of their use, however, and may depart
significantly from the norm due to variations in driving habits, service practices,
and differences in road characteristics and climate.

Traction

The traction grades, from highest to lowest, are AA, A, B, and C. Those grades
represent the tire’s ability to stop on wet pavement as measured under controlled
conditions on specified government test surfaces of asphalt and concrete. A tire
marked C may have poor traction performance.

WARNING: The traction grade assigned to this tire is based on straight-ahead
braking traction tests, and does not include acceleration, cornering, hydroplaning,
or peak traction characteristics.

Maximum Inflation Pressure – The maximum tire air pressure that the tire
can hold.

Maximum Load Rating – The load rating for a tire at the maximum
permissible inflation pressure for that tire.

Recommended Inflation Pressure – The cold tire inflation pressure
recommended by the manufacturer.

Treadwear Indicators (TWI) – The projections within the principal grooves
designed to give a visual indication of the degrees of wear of the tread.

144 | | 145

MAINTENANCEMAINTENANCE

Temperature

The temperature grades are A (the highest), B, and C, representing the tire’s
resistance to the generation of heat and its ability to dissipate heat when tested
under controlled conditions on a specified indoor laboratory test wheel. Sustained
high temperature can cause the material of the tire to degenerate and reduce
tire life, and excessive temperature can lead to sudden tire failure. The grade
C corresponds to a level of performance which all passenger car tires must
meet under the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 109. Grades B and
A represent higher levels of performance on the laboratory test wheel than the
minimum required by law.

WARNING: The temperature grade for this tire is established for a tire that
is properly inflated and not overloaded. Excessive speed, underinflation, or
excessive loading, either separately or in combination, can cause heat buildup
and possible tire failure.

Testing of Readiness Codes

Your vehicle has readiness codes as part of the onboard self-diagnostic system.
Some states use these codes for testing to verify whether your vehicle’s emissions
components are working properly. The codes may not be read if you go through the
testing just after the battery has gone dead or been disconnected.

To check if they are set, turn the vehicle on without starting the engine. The
malfunction indicator lamp will come on for several seconds. If it goes off, the
readiness codes are set. If it blinks five times, the readiness codes are not set.

If you are required to have your vehicle tested before the readiness codes are set,
prepare the vehicle for retesting by doing the following:

1. Fill the gas tank to approximately 3/4 full.

2. Park the vehicle and leave the engine off for 6 hours or more.

3. Make sure the ambient temperature is between 40°F and 95°F (4°C and 35°C).

4. Start the engine without touching the accelerator pedal, and let it idle for 20
seconds.

5. Keep the vehicle in Park (P) or Neutral for manual transmission. Increase the
engine speed to 2,000 rpm, and hold it there for about 3 minutes.

6. Let the engine idle with your foot off the accelerator for 20 seconds.

7. Select a nearby, lightly traveled major highway where you can maintain a speed
of 50 to 60 mph (80 to 97 km/h) for at least 20 minutes. Drive on the highway
with the vehicle in Drive (D) or 5th gear. Do not use cruise control. When traffic
allows, drive for 90 seconds without using the accelerator pedal. (Vehicle speed
may vary slightly; this is OK.) If you cannot do this for a continuous 90 seconds
because of traffic conditions, drive for at least 30 seconds, then repeat two more
times (for a total of 90 seconds).

8. Drive in city or suburban traffic for at least 10 minutes. When traffic conditions
allow, let the vehicle coast for several seconds without using the accelerator
pedal or the brake pedal.

9. Park the vehicle and leave the engine off for 30 minutes.

The readiness codes are erased when the battery is disconnected, and set again
only after several days of driving under a variety of conditions.

If a testing facility determines that the readiness codes are not set, you may be
requested to return at a later date to complete the test, or see your dealer.
