The safety precautions below are ones that we consider to be among the most important. Safe Driving Important Safety Precautions ■ Always wear your seat belt 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. ■ Restrain all children Children aged 12 and under should ride properly restrained in a back seat, not the front seat. Infants and small children should be restrained in a child restraint system. Larger children should use a booster seat and a lap/shoulder seat belt until they can use the belt properly without a booster seat. ■ Be aware of airbag hazards While airbags can save lives, they can cause serious or fatal injuries to occupants who sit too close to them, or are not properly restrained. Infants, young children, and short adults are at the greatest risk. Be sure to follow all instructions and warnings in this manual. ■ Don't drink and drive Alcohol and driving don't mix. Even one drink can reduce your ability to respond to changing conditions, and your reaction time gets worse with every additional drink. So don't drink and drive, and don't let your friends drink and drive, either. 32 1Important Safety Precautions Some countries prohibit the use of mobile phones other than hands-free devices by the driver while driving. uuFor Safe DrivinguImportant Safety Precautions ■ Pay appropriate attention to the task of driving safely ■ Control your speed Excessive speed is a major factor in crash injuries and deaths. Generally, the higher the speed, the greater the risk, but serious injuries can also occur at lower speeds. Never drive faster than is safe for current conditions, regardless of the maximum speed posted. Safe Driving Engaging in mobile 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. ■ Keep your vehicle in safe condition Having a tyre blowout or a mechanical failure can be extremely hazardous. To reduce the possibility of such problems, check your tyre pressures and condition frequently, and perform all regularly scheduled maintenance. ■ Do not leave children unattended in the vehicle Children, pets and people needing assistance left unattended in the vehicle may be injured if they activate one or more of the vehicle controls. They may also cause the vehicle to move, resulting in a crash in which they and/or another person(s) can be injured or killed. Also, depending on the ambient temperature, the temperature of the interior may reach extreme levels, which can result in harm or death. Even if the climate control system is on, never leave them in the vehicle unattended as the climate control system can shut off at any time. 33 uuFor Safe DrivinguYour Vehicle's Safety Features Your Vehicle's Safety Features 1Your Vehicle's Safety Features 8 6 7 Your vehicle is equipped with many features that work together to help protect you and your passengers during a crash. 7 Safe Driving Some features do not require any action on your part. These include a strong steel framework that forms a safety cage around the passenger compartment, front and rear crush zones, a collapsible steering column, and tensioners that tighten the front seat belts in a sufficient crash. However, you and your passengers cannot take full advantage of these features unless you remain seated in the correct position and always wear your seat belts. In fact, some safety features can contribute to injuries if they are not used properly. 6 7 8 Safety Cage Crush Zones Seats and Seat-Backs Head Restraints Collapsible Steering Column Seat Belts Front Airbags Automatic Seat Belt Tensioners The following checklist will help you take an active role in protecting yourself and your passengers. 34 uuFor Safe DrivinguSafety Checklist Safety Checklist 2 Adjusting the Seats P. 136 1Safety Checklist If the door/tailgate open indicator is on, a door and/ or tailgate is not completely closed.

Models with B type information display 2 Head Restraints P. 147 35 Seat Belts About Your Seat Belts Safe Driving Seat belts are the single most effective safety device because they keep you connected to the vehicle so that you can take advantage of many built-in safety features. They also help keep you from being thrown against the inside of the vehicle, against other passengers, or out of the vehicle. When worn properly, seat belts also keep your body properly positioned in a crash so that you can take full advantage of the additional protection provided by the airbags. In addition, seat belts help protect you in almost every type of crash, including: - frontal impacts - side impacts - rear impacts - rollovers 1About Your Seat Belts 3 WARNING Not wearing a seat belt properly increases the chance of 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. WARNING: Seat belts are designed to bear upon the bony structure of the body, and should be worn low across the front of the pelvis or the pelvis, chest and shoulders, as applicable; wearing the lap section of the belt across the abdominal area must be avoided. WARNING: Seat belts should be adjusted as firmly as possible, consistent with comfort, to provide the protection for which they have been designed. A slack belt will greatly reduce the protection afforded to the wearer. WARNING: Belts should not be worn with straps twisted. WARNING: Each belt assembly must only be used by one occupant; it is dangerous to put a belt around a child being carried on the occupant’s lap. 36 uuSeat BeltsuAbout Your Seat Belts ■ Lap/shoulder seat belts 1About Your Seat Belts 2 Installing a Child Restraint System with a Lap/Shoulder Seat Belt P. 65 ■ 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 reduces 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. * Not available on all models Continued Seat belts cannot completely protect you in every crash. But in most cases, seat belts can reduce your risk of serious injury. Most countries require you to wear seat belts. Take time to familiarise with the legal requirements of the countries in which you will drive. Safe Driving The front and rear outer/centre * 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. If you extend the seat belt too quickly, it will lock in place. If this happens, slightly retract the seat belt, then extend it slowly. Models with lap seat belt Your vehicle’s rear centre seat is equipped with the lap seat belt. This seat belt does not come with an emergency locking retractor. 37 uuSeat BeltsuAbout Your Seat Belts ■ Seat Belt Reminder Safe Driving Models with A type information display Models with B type information display 1Seat Belt Reminder The seat belt system includes an indicator on the instrument panel to remind the driver or a front passenger * or both to fasten their seat belts.

Each time you have a checkup, ask your doctor if it is okay for you to drive. To reduce the risk of injuries to both you and your unborn child that can be caused by an inflating front airbag: • When driving, sit upright and adjust the seat as far back as possible while allowing full control of the vehicle. • When sitting in the front passenger's seat, adjust the seat as far back as possible. Safe Driving If you are pregnant, the best way to protect yourself and your unborn child when driving or riding in a vehicle is to always wear a seat belt and keep the lap part of the belt as low as possible across the hips. 1Advice for Pregnant Women Wear the lap part of the belt as low as possible across the hips. 43 uuSeat BeltsuSeat Belt Inspection Seat Belt Inspection Regularly check the condition of your seat belts as follows: Safe Driving • Pull each belt out fully, and look for frays, cuts, burns, and wear. • Check that the latches work smoothly and the belts retract easily. u If a belt does not retract easily, cleaning the belt may correct the problem. Only use a 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. 1Seat Belt Inspection 3 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. WARNING: No modifications or additions should be made by the user which will either prevent the seat belt adjusting devices from operating to remove slack, or prevent the seat belt assembly from being adjusted to remove slack. WARNING: It is essential to replace the entire assembly after it has been worn in a severe impact even if damage to the assembly is not obvious. WARNING: Care should be taken to avoid contamination of the webbing with polishes, oils and chemicals, and particularly battery acid. Cleaning may safely be carried out using mild soap and water. The belt should be replaced if webbing becomes frayed, contaminated or damaged. 44 uuSeat BeltsuAnchorage Points Anchorage Points Front Seat When replacing the seat belts, use the anchorage points shown in the images.

The airbag system includes: Safe Driving • Two SRS (Supplemental Restraint System) front airbags. The driver's airbag is stored in the centre of the steering wheel; the front passenger's airbag is stored in the dashboard. Both are marked SRS AIRBAG. • An electronic control unit that, when the ignition switch is ON (w *1, continually monitors information about the various impact sensors, seat and buckle sensors, airbag activators, seat belt tensioners, and other vehicle information. During a crash event the unit can record such information. • Automatic front seat belt tensioners. • Impact sensors that can detect a moderate-to-severe front impact. • An indicator on the instrument panel that alerts you to a possible problem with your airbag system or seat belt tensioners. *1 : Models with the keyless access system have an ENGINE START/STOP button instead of an ignition switch. 46 uuAirbagsuAirbag System Components ■ Important Facts About Your Airbags What you should do: 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 attempt to deactivate your airbags. Together, airbags and seat belts provide the best protection. When driving, keep hands and arms out of the deployment path of the front airbag by holding each side of the steering wheel. Do not cross an arm over the airbag cover. Safe Driving Airbags can pose serious hazards. To do their job, airbags must inflate with tremendous force. So, while airbags help save lives, they can cause burns, bruises, and other minor injuries, and sometimes even fatal ones if occupants are not wearing their seat belts properly and sitting correctly. 1Important Facts About Your Airbags Remember, however, that no safety system can prevent all injuries or deaths that can occur in a severe crash, even when seat belts are properly worn and the airbags deploy. 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. 47 uuAirbagsuTypes of Airbags Types of Airbags Your vehicle is equipped with front airbags: • Airbag in front of the driver's seat. • Airbag in front of the passenger's seat. Safe Driving Front Airbags (SRS) The front SRS airbags inflate in a moderate-to-severe frontal collision to help to protect the head and chest of the driver and/or front passenger. 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. ■ Housing Locations The front airbags are housed in the centre of the steering wheel for the driver, and in the dashboard for the front passenger. Both airbags are marked SRS AIRBAG. *1 : Models with the keyless access system have an ENGINE START/STOP button instead of an ignition switch. 48 1Types of Airbags The airbags can inflate whenever the ignition switch is in ON (w *1. After an airbag inflates in a crash, you may see a small amount of smoke. This is from the combustion process of the inflator material and is not harmful. People with respiratory problems may experience some temporary discomfort. If this occurs, get out of the vehicle as soon as it is safe to do so. uuAirbagsuFront Airbags (SRS) ■ Operation A frontal collision can be either head-on or angled between two vehicles, or when a vehicle crashes into a stationary object, such as a concrete wall. Safe Driving Front airbags are designed to inflate during moderate-to-severe frontal collisions. When the vehicle decelerates suddenly, the sensors send information to the control unit which signals one or both front airbags to inflate. ■ How the Front Airbags Work While your seat belt restrains your torso, the front airbag provides supplemental protection for your head and chest. The front airbags deflate immediately so that they won't interfere with the driver's visibility or the ability to steer or operate other controls. The total time for inflation and deflation is so fast that most occupants are not aware that the airbags deployed until they see them lying in front of them. Continued 49 uuAirbagsuFront Airbags (SRS) ■ When front airbags should not deploy Safe Driving 50 Minor frontal crashes: Front airbags were designed to supplement seat belts and help to save lives, not to prevent minor scrapes, or even broken bones that might occur during a less than moderate-to-severe frontal crash. Side impacts: Front airbags can provide protection when a sudden deceleration causes a driver or front passenger to move towards the front of the vehicle. Front airbags cannot provide any significant protection and are not designed to deploy in such collisions. Rear impacts: Head restraints and seat belts are your best protection during a rear impact. Front airbags cannot provide any significant protection and are not designed to deploy in such collisions. Rollovers: Seat belts offer the best protection in a rollover. Because front airbags could provide little if any protection, they are not designed to deploy during a rollover. ■ When front airbags deploy with little or no visible damage Because the airbag system senses sudden deceleration, a strong impact to the vehicle framework or suspension might cause one or more of the airbags to deploy. Examples include running into a curb, the edge of a hole, or other low fixed object that causes a sudden deceleration in the vehicle chassis. Since the impact is underneath the vehicle, damage may not be readily apparent. ■ When front airbags may not deploy, even though exterior damage appears severe Since crushable body parts absorb crash energy during an impact, the amount of visible damage does not always indicate proper airbag operation. In fact, some collisions can result in severe damage but no airbag deployment because the airbags would not have been needed or would not have provided protection even if they had deployed. uuAirbagsuAirbag System Indicators Airbag System Indicators If a problem occurs in the airbag system, the SRS indicator will come on.

However, you should have your vehicle inspected by a dealer in the following situations: Safe Driving ■ 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: front seat belt tensioners, and each seat belt that was worn during the crash. 52 1Airbag Care The removal of airbag components from the vehicle is prohibited. In case of malfunction, or shutdown, or after the airbag inflation/seat belt tensioner operation, ask a qualified personnel for handling. We recommend against the use of salvaged airbag system components, including the airbag, tensioners, sensors, and control unit. Child Safety Protecting Child Passengers Each year, many children are injured or killed in vehicle crashes because they are either unrestrained or not properly restrained. In fact, vehicle crashes are the number one cause of death of children aged 12 and under. Children should sit properly restrained in a rear seat. This is because: • An inflating front 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. 3 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 an approved child restraint system. A larger child should be properly restrained with a seat belt, using a booster seat if necessary. Safe Driving To reduce the number of child deaths and injuries, infants and children should be properly restrained when they ride in a vehicle. 1Protecting Child Passengers In many countries, the law requires all children aged 12 and under, and whose height are shorter than 150 cm be properly restrained in a rear seat. In many countries, it is required to use an officially approved and suitable child restrain system for transporting a child on any passenger seat. Check your local legal requirements. Malaysia models Child restraint systems must meet UN Regulation No. 44 or the regulations of the subject countries. 2 Selecting a Child Restraint System P. 59 Except Malaysia models We recommend that child restraint systems meet UN Regulation No. 44 or the regulations of the subject countries. 2 Selecting a Child Restraint System P. 59 Continued 53 uuChild SafetyuProtecting Child Passengers • Never hold a child on your lap because it is impossible to protect them in the event of a collision. Safe Driving • 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. 1Protecting Child Passengers Front Passenger’s Sun Visor 3 WARNING • Never let two children use the same seat belt. Both children could be very seriously injured in a crash. • Any child who is too small to wear a seat belt must be properly restrained in an approved child restraint system that is properly secured to the vehicle using the belt or the child restraint anchorage system. NEVER use a rearward facing child restraint on a seat protected by an ACTIVE AIRBAG in front of it, DEATH or SERIOUS INJURY to the CHILD can occur.

They could also activate vehicle controls causing it to move unexpectedly. 1Protecting Child Passengers WARNING: Always take the ignition key with you whenever you leave the vehicle alone or with other occupants. 55 uuChild SafetyuSafety of Infants and Small Children Safety of Infants and Small Children ■ Protecting Infants Safe Driving An infant must be properly restrained in a rear-facing, reclining child restraint system until the infant reaches the restraint system manufacturer's weight or height limit for the seat, and the infant is at least one year old. ■ Positioning a rear-facing child restraint system Child restraint system must be placed and secured in a rear seating position. u We recommend that you install the child restraint system directly behind the front passenger’s seat, move the seat as far forward as needed, and leave it unoccupied. u Make sure that there is no contact between the child restraint system and the seat in front of it. If there is , you may wish to get a smaller rear-facing child restraint system. 1Protecting Infants 3 WARNING Placing a rear-facing child restraint system in the front seat can result in serious injury or death if the passenger’s front airbag inflates. Always place a rear-facing child restraint system in the back seat, not the front. As required by UN Regulation No. 94: 3 WARNING NEVER use a rearward facing child restraint on a seat protected by an ACTIVE AIRBAG in front of it, DEATH or SERIOUS INJURY to the CHILD can occur. 56 uuChild SafetyuSafety of Infants and Small Children When properly installed, a rear-facing child restraint system 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. 1Protecting Infants Rear-facing child restraint systems should never be installed in a front-facing position. Safe Driving Many experts recommend use of a rear-facing child restraint system for a child up to two years old if the child's height and weight are appropriate for a rearfacing child restraint system. Always refer to the child restraint system manufacturer’s instructions before installation. If the passenger’s front airbag inflates, it can hit the rear-facing child restraint system with great force, which can dislodge or strike the system, and seriously injure the child. Continued 57 uuChild SafetyuSafety of Infants and Small Children ■ Protecting Smaller Children Safe Driving If a child is at least one year old and has exceeded the weight and height limitations of a rear-facing child restraint system, the child should be properly restrained in a firmly secured front-facing child restraint system until they exceed the weight and height limitations for the front-facing child restraint system. ■ Front-facing child restraint system placement We strongly recommend placing a frontfacing child restraint system in a rear seating position. 1Protecting Smaller Children 3 WARNING Placing a front-facing child restraint system in the front seat can result in serious injury or death if the front airbag inflates. If you must place a front-facing child restraint system in front, move the vehicle seat as far back as possible, and properly restrain the child. Educate yourself about the laws and regulations regarding child restraint system use where you are driving, and follow the child restraint system manufacturer's instructions. Placing a front-facing child restraint system in the front seat can be hazardous. A rear seat is the safest place for a child. 58 uuChild SafetyuSafety of Infants and Small Children ■ Selecting a Child Restraint System 1Selecting a Child Restraint System The flexible type may not be available in your country. Installation of a lower anchorage-compatible child restraint system is simple. Lower anchorage-compatible child restraint systems have been developed to simplify the installation process and reduce the likelihood of injuries caused by incorrect installation. Safe Driving Some child restraint systems are lower anchorage compatible. Some have a rigidtype connector, while others have a flexible-type connector. Both are equally easy to use. Some existing and previously owned child restraint systems can only be installed using the seat belt. Whichever type your choose, follow the child restraint system manufacturer’s use and care instructions including recommended expiration dates as well as the instructions in this manual. Proper installation is key to maximizing your child’s safety. We recommend a rear-facing or a front-facing Honda genuine ISOFIX child restraint system for infants or small children, respectively. Ask your dealer. In seating positions and vehicles not equipped with lower anchorages, install a child restraint system using the seat belt and a top tether for added security. This is because all child restraint systems must be secured with the seat belt when the lower anchorage system is not in use. In addition, the child restraint system manufacturer may advise that a seat belt be used to attach an ISO FIX restraint system once a child reaches a specified weight. Please read the child restraint system owner’s manual for proper installation instructions. ■ Important consideration when selecting a child restraint system Make sure the child restraint system meets the following three requirements: • The child restraint system is the correct type and size for the child. • The child restraint system is the correct type for the seating position. • The child restraint system is compliant with safety standards. We recommend a child restraint system compliant with UN Regulation No. 44 or the regulations of the subject countries.

Have the child sit upright and all the way back, then answer the following questions. ■ Checklist • Do the child's knees bend comfortably over the edge of the seat? • Does the shoulder belt cross between the child's neck and arm? • Is the lap part of the seat belt as low as possible, touching the child's thighs? • Will the child be able to stay seated like this for the whole trip? If you answer yes to all these questions, the child is ready to wear the lap/shoulder seat belt correctly. If you answer no to any question, the child needs to ride on a booster seat until the seat belt fits properly without a booster seat. 70 1Safety of Larger Children 3 WARNING Allowing a child aged 12 or under to sit in 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, have the child sit up properly and wear the seat belt properly, using a booster seat if needed. uuChild SafetyuSafety of Larger Children ■ Booster Seats 1Booster Seats When installing a booster seat, make sure to read the instructions that came with it, and install the seat accordingly. There are high- and low-type booster seats. Choose a booster seat that allows the child to wear the seat belt correctly. Safe Driving If a lap/shoulder seat belt cannot be used properly, position the child in a booster seat in the rear seat. For the child's safety, check that the child meets the booster seat manufacturer's recommendations. We recommend a booster seat with a backrest as it is easier to adjust the shoulder belt. Guide A backrest is available for a specific booster seat. Install the backrest to the booster seat and adjust it to the vehicle seat according to the booster seat manufacturer's instructions. Make sure the seat belt is properly routed through the guide at the shoulder of the backrest and the belt does not touch and cross the child’s neck. Continued 71 uuChild SafetyuSafety of Larger Children ■ Protecting Larger Children - Final Checks Safe Driving Your vehicle has a rear seat where children can be properly restrained. If you ever have to carry a group of children, and a child must ride in front: • Make sure you read and fully understand the instructions and safety information in this manual. • Move the front passenger seat as far back as possible. • Have the child sit upright and well back in the seat. • Check that the seat belt is properly positioned so that the child is secure in the seat. ■ Monitoring child passengers We strongly recommend that you keep an eye on child passengers. Even older, more mature children sometimes need to be reminded to fasten their seat belts and sit up properly. 72 Exhaust Gas Hazard Carbon Monoxide Gas The engine exhaust from this vehicle contains carbon monoxide, a colourless, odourless, and highly toxic gas. As long as you properly maintain your vehicle, carbon monoxide gas will not get into the interior. • 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 tailgate open, airflow can pull exhaust gas into the interior and create a hazardous condition. If you must drive with the tailgate open, open all the windows and set the heating and cooling system */climate control system * as shown below. 1. Select the fresh air mode. 2. Select the mode. 3. Set the fan speed to high. 4. Set the temperature control to a comfortable setting. 3 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. Safe Driving ■ Have the exhaust system inspected for leaks whenever 1Carbon Monoxide Gas An enclosed area such as a garage can quickly fill up with carbon monoxide gas.

If frozen solid, remove ice once it has softened. u When removing ice from around the wheels, be sure not to damage the wheel or wheel components. • Make sure the bonnet is securely closed. u If the bonnet opens while driving, your front view will be blocked. • Make sure the tyres are in good condition. u Check air pressures, and check for damage and excessive wear. Driving 204 2 Checking and Maintaining Tyres P. 276 • Make sure there are no people or objects behind or around the vehicle. u There are blind spots from the inside. 1Exterior Checks NOTICE When 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. Do not pour warm water into the key cylinder. You will be unable to insert the key if the water freezes in the hole. Heat from the engine and exhaust can ignite flammable materials left under the bonnet, 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 bonnet for leftover flammable materials after you or someone else has performed maintenance on your vehicle. uuBefore DrivinguDriving Preparation ■ Interior Checks 1Interior Checks • Store or secure all items on board properly. u Carrying too much luggage, or improperly storing it, can affect your vehicle's handling, stability, stopping distance, and tyres, and make it unsafe.

When you drive, turn on the low beam headlights even during the daytime. Slow down, using the road line in the centre, guard rails, and the taillights of the vehicle ahead of you as your driving guide. ■ In a Strong Wind CAUTION: Do not drive on the road where water is deep. Driving through deep water will cause damage to the engine and electrical equipment and the vehicle will break down. NOTICE If a strong side wind drifts your vehicle while driving, hold the steering wheel tight. Slowly decelerate your vehicle and keep your vehicle in the middle of the road. Be careful with wind gusts especially when your vehicle is exiting a tunnel, driving on a bridge or river bank, and driving through an open area like a quarry, and when a large lorry is passing by. Do not operate the shift lever while pressing the accelerator pedal. You could damage the transmission. NOTICE Driving 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 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. 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 transmission into (N , as you will lose engine braking (and acceleration) performance. *1 : Models with the keyless access system have an ENGINE START/STOP button instead of an ignition switch. Continued 215 uuWhen DrivinguContinuously Variable Transmission * ■ In Rain The road is slippery when raining. Avoid hard braking, rapid acceleration, and abrupt steering and be more cautions when driving. It is likely to experience hydroplaning phenomenon if you are driving on a rutted road with puddles. Do not drive in deep water and on flooded roads. This can damage the engine or driveline, or cause electrical component failure. 1Precautions While Driving During the first 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 300 km. You should also follow this when the brake pads are replaced. ■ Other Precautions If there is a strong impact with something under the vehicle, stop in a safe location. Check the underside of the vehicle for damage or any fluid leaks. Continuously Variable Transmission * Driving ■ Creeping The engine runs at a higher idle speed and creeping increases. Keep the brake pedal firmly depressed when stopped. ■ Kickdown Quickly depressing the accelerator pedal while driving uphill may cause the transmission to drop to a lower ratio, unexpectedly increasing vehicle speed. Depress the accelerator pedal carefully, especially on slippery roads and curves. 216 * Not available on all models 1In Rain Be careful when hydroplaning phenomenon occurs. When you drive on a road covered with water at excessive speed, a layer of water builds between the tyres and the road surface. If this occurs, the vehicle cannot respond to control inputs such as steering, and braking. Slowly decelerate when you shift down. If the road is slippery, sudden engine braking can cause the tyres to skid. uuWhen DrivinguShifting Continuously variable transmission models without paddle shifters Shifting 1Shift lever positions Change the shift position in accordance with your driving needs. ■ Shift lever positions You cannot turn the ignition switch to LOCK (0 *1 and remove the key unless the shift lever is in (P .

Avoid sudden acceleration and have the transmission checked by a dealer as soon as possible. The fuel supply may be cut off if you drive at engine speeds in or over the tachometer's red zone (engine speed limit). If this happens, you may experience a slight jolt. It may not be possible to operate the shift lever if the brake pedal is depressed while the shift lever release button is held down. Depress the brake pedal first. uuWhen DrivinguShifting ■ 7-Speed Manual Shift Mode 17-Speed Manual Shift Mode Use the paddle shifters to change between 1st and 7th speeds without releasing 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. ■ 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 cancelled automatically if you drive at constant speed or accelerate, and the number in the shift indicator goes off. 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. 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. 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. Operating the paddle shifters on slippery surfaces may cause the tyres to lock up. In this case, the 7speed manual shift mode is cancelled and goes back to the normal (D driving mode. Driving ■ When the shift lever is in (S : 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. Shift Down: The engine speed reaches the highest threshold of the lower speed position. If the vehicle speed increases and the engine speed reaches near the tachometer’s red zone, the transmission automatically shifts up.

Paddle Shifter (Shift down) Paddle Shifter (Shift up) Driving Downshifting when pulling the paddle shifter (Changes to a lower speed number) 222 Upshifting when pulling the paddle shifter (Changes to a higher speed number) Each paddle shift operation makes a single speed change. To change continuously, release the paddle shifter before pulling it again for the next speed. The shift indicator blinks when you cannot shift up or down. It indicates that your vehicle speed is not in its allowable shifting range. Slightly accelerate to shift up and decelerate to shift down while the indicator is blinking. uuWhen DrivinguShifting Manual transmission models Shifting 1Shifting ■ Shift Lever Operation NOTICE Fully depress the clutch pedal to operate the shift lever and change gears, then slowly release the pedal. Do not shift to (R before the vehicle comes to a complete stop. Shifting to (R before stopping can damage the transmission. Depress the clutch pedal, and pause for a few seconds before shifting into (R , or shift into one of the forward gears for a moment. This stops the gears so they do not “grind.” When you are not shifting, do not rest your foot on the clutch pedal. This can cause your clutch to wear out faster. Before downshifting, make sure the engine will not go into the tachometer's red zone. Should this occur, it can severely damage your engine. NOTICE Driving There is a metallic part on the shift lever. If you leave the vehicle parked outside for a long time on a hot day, be careful before moving the shift lever. Because of heat, the shift lever may be extremely hot. If the outside temperature is low, the shift lever may feel cold. If you exceed the maximum speed for the gear you are in, the engine speed will enter into the tachometer's red zone. When this happens, you may experience a slight jolt. Continued 223 uuWhen DrivinguShifting ■ Reverse Lockout The manual transmission has a lockout mechanism that stops you from accidentally shifting into (R from a forward gear while the vehicle is moving above a certain speed. If you cannot shift to (R when the vehicle is stopped, do the following: 1. Depress the clutch pedal, move the shift lever all the way to the left, and shift to (R . 2. If you still cannot shift into (R , apply the parking brake, and turn the ignition switch to ACCESSORY (q or LOCK (0 *1. 3. Depress the clutch pedal and shift into (R . 4. Keep depressing the clutch pedal and start the engine. Driving Have your vehicle checked by a dealer if you have to go through this procedure repeatedly. *1 : Models with the keyless access system have an ENGINE START/STOP button instead of an ignition switch. 224 uuWhen DrivinguVehicle Stability Assist (VSA) System * Vehicle Stability Assist (VSA) System * VSA helps to stabilise the vehicle during cornering if the vehicle turns more or less than what was intended. It also assists in maintaining traction on slippery surfaces. It does so by regulating engine output and selectively applying the brakes. ■ VSA Operation When VSA activates, you may notice that the engine does not respond to the accelerator. You may also notice some noise from the hydraulic system. You will also see the indicator blink. VSA System Indicator 1Vehicle Stability Assist (VSA) System * The VSA may not function properly if tyre type and size are mixed. Make sure to use the same size and type of tyre, and the air pressures as specified. When the VSA system indicator comes on and stays on while driving, there may be a problem with the system. While this may not interfere with normal driving, have your vehicle checked by a dealer immediately. VSA cannot enhance stability in all driving situations and does not control the entire braking system. You still need to drive and corner at speeds appropriate for the conditions and always leave a sufficient margin of safety. * Not available on all models Continued Driving The Main function of the VSA system is generally known as Electronic Stability Control (ESC). The system also includes a traction control function. 225 uuWhen DrivinguVehicle Stability Assist (VSA) System * ■ VSA On and Off VSA OFF Indicator Driving 226 * Not available on all models 1Vehicle Stability Assist (VSA) System * This button is on the driver side control panel. To partially disable VSA functionality/features, press and hold it until you hear a beep. In certain unusual conditions when your vehicle gets stuck in shallow mud or fresh snow, it may be easier to free it with the VSA temporarily switched off. Your vehicle will have normal braking and cornering ability, but traction control function will be less effective. When the button is pressed, the traction control function becomes less effective. This allows for the wheels to spin more freely at low speed. You should only attempt to free your vehicle with the VSA off if you are not able to free it when the VSA is on. To restore VSA functionality/features, press the (VSA OFF) button until you hear a beep. Immediately after freeing your vehicle, be sure to switch VSA on again. We do not recommend driving your vehicle with the VSA system switched off. VSA is turned on every time you start the engine, even if you turned it off the last time you drove the vehicle. You may hear a motor sound coming from the engine compartment while system checks are being performed immediately after starting the engine or while driving. This is normal. Braking Brake System ■ Parking Brake 1Parking Brake Use the parking brake to keep the vehicle stationary when parking. To apply: Pull the lever fully up without pressing the release button. NOTICE Release the parking brake fully before driving. The rear brakes and axle can be damaged if you drive with the parking brake applied. If you start driving without fully releasing the parking brake, a buzzer sounds as a warning. Always apply the parking brake when parking. Release Button Continued Driving To release: 1. Pull the lever slightly, and press and hold the release button. 2. Lower the lever down all the way, then release the button. 227 uuBrakinguBrake System ■ Foot Brake Your vehicle is equipped with disc brakes at the front, and drum brakes in the rear wheels. A vacuum power assist helps reduce the effort needed on the brake pedal. The anti-lock brake system (ABS) helps you retain steering control when braking very hard. 2 Anti-lock Brake System (ABS) P. 229 1Foot Brake Check the brakes after driving through deep water, or if there is a buildup of road surface water. If necessary, dry the brakes by lightly depressing the pedal several times. If you hear a continuous metallic friction sound when applying the brakes, the brake pads need to be replaced. Have your vehicle checked by a dealer. Constantly using the brake pedal while going down a long hill builds up heat, which reduces the brake effectiveness. Apply engine braking by taking your foot off the accelerator pedal and downshifting to a lower gear/speed position. With manual transmission use a lower gear for greater engine braking. Driving 228 Do not rest your foot on the brake pedal while driving, as it will lightly apply the brakes and cause them to lose effectiveness over time and reduce pad life. It will also confuse drivers behind you. uuBrakinguAnti-lock Brake System (ABS) Anti-lock Brake System (ABS) ■ ABS Helps to prevent the wheels from locking up, and helps you retain steering control by pumping the brakes rapidly, much faster than you. The electronic brake distribution (EBD) system, which is part of the ABS, also balances the front-to-rear braking distribution according to vehicle loading. You should never pump the brake pedal. Let the ABS work for you by always keeping firm, steady pressure on the brake pedal. This is sometimes referred to as "stomp and steer." ■ ABS operation ABS may activate when you depress the brake pedal when driving on: • Wet or snow covered roads. • Roads paved with stone. • Roads with uneven surfaces, such as potholes, cracks, manholes, etc. When the vehicle speed goes under 10 km/h, the ABS stops. NOTICE The ABS may not function if you use a tyre of the wrong size or type. If the ABS indicator comes on while driving, there may be a problem with the system. While normal braking will not be affected, there is a possibility that the ABS will not be operating. Have your vehicle checked by a dealer immediately. The ABS is not designed for the purpose of reducing the time or distance it takes for a vehicle to stop: It is designed to limit brake lockup which can lead to skidding and loss of steering control. In the following cases, your vehicle may need more distance to stop than a vehicle without the ABS: • You are driving on rough or uneven road surfaces, such as gravel or snow. Driving The brake pedal may pulsate slightly when the ABS is working. Depress the brake pedal and keep holding the pedal firmly down. On dry pavement, you will need to press on the brake pedal very hard before the ABS activates. However, you may feel the ABS activate immediately if you are trying to stop on snow or ice. 1Anti-lock Brake System (ABS) The following may be observed with the ABS system: • Motor sounds coming from the engine compartment when the brakes are applied, or when system checks are being performed after the engine has been started and while the vehicle accelerates. • Brake pedal and/or the vehicle body vibration when ABS activates. These vibrations and sounds are normal to ABS systems and are no cause for concern. 229 uuBrakinguBrake Assist System Models with vehicle stability assist (VSA) system Brake Assist System Is designed to assist the driver by generating greater braking force when you depress the brake pedal hard during emergency braking. ■ Brake assist system operation Press the brake pedal firmly for more powerful braking. When brake assist operates, the pedal may wiggle slightly and an operating noise may be heard. This is normal. Keep holding the brake pedal firmly down. Driving 230 Parking Your Vehicle When Stopped 1. Depress the brake pedal firmly. 2. Firmly apply the parking brake. Continuously variable transmission models 3. Change the shift position to (P . Manual transmission models 3. Move the shift lever to (R or (1 . 1Parking Your Vehicle Do not park your vehicle near flammable objects, such as dry grass, oil, or timber.

Always set the parking brake firmly, in particular if you are parked on an incline. 3 WARNING The vehicle can roll away if left unattended without confirming that Park is engaged. A vehicle that rolls away could cause a crash resulting in serious injury or death. Always keep your foot on the brake pedal until you have confirmed that (P is shown on the gear position indicator. Driving NOTICE The following can damage the transmission: • Depressing the accelerator and brake pedals simultaneously. • Holding the vehicle in place when facing uphill by depressing the accelerator pedal. • Moving the shift lever into (P before the vehicle stops completely. All models In extremely cold temperatures, the parking brake may freeze up if applied. If such temperatures are expected, do not apply the parking brake but, if parking on a slope, either turn the front wheels so they will contact the curb if the vehicle rolls down the slope or block the wheels to keep the vehicle from moving. If you do not take either precaution, the vehicle may roll unexpectedly, leading to a crash. 231 uuParking Your VehicleuParking Sensor System * Parking Sensor System * The rear sensors monitor obstacles behind your vehicle, and the beeper let you know the approximate distance between your vehicle and the obstacle. ■ The sensor location and range Rear Sensors 1Parking Sensor System * Even when the system is on, always confirm if there is no obstacle near your vehicle before parking.

Maintenance 275 Checking and Maintaining Tyres Checking Tyres To safely operate your vehicle, your tyres must be of the proper type and size, in good condition with adequate tread, and properly inflated. ■ Inflation guidelines Properly inflated tyres provide the best combination of handling, tread life, and comfort. Refer to the driver’s doorjamb label for the specified pressure. Underinflated tyres wear unevenly, adversely affect handling and fuel economy, and are more likely to fail from overheating. Overinflated tyres make your vehicle ride harshly, are more prone to road hazards, and wear unevenly. Every day before you drive, look at each of the tyres. If one looks lower than the others, check the pressure with a tyre gauge. 3 WARNING Using tyres 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 tyre inflation and maintenance. Measure the air pressure when tyres are cold. This means the vehicle has been parked for at least three hours, or driven less than 1.6 km. If necessary, add or release air until the specified pressure is reached. Maintenance At least once a month or before long trips, use a gauge to measure the pressure in all tyres, including the spare. Even tyres in good condition can lose 10-20 kPa (0.1-0.2 kgf/cm2, 1-2 psi) per month. If checked when hot, tyre pressure can be as much as 30–40 kPa (0.3–0.4 kgf/cm2, 4–6 psi) higher than if checked when cold. ■ Inspection guidelines Have a dealer check the tyres if you feel a consistent vibration while driving. New tyres and any that have been removed and reinstalled should be properly balanced. Every time you check inflation, also examine the tyres and valve stems. Look for: • Bumps or bulges on the side or in the tread. Replace the tyre if you find any cuts, splits, or cracks in the side of the tyre. Replace it if you see fabric or cord. • Remove any foreign objects and inspect for air leaks. • Uneven tread wear. Have a dealer check the wheel alignment. • Excessive tread wear. 2 Wear Indicators P. 277 • Cracks or other damage around valve stem. 276 1Checking Tyres uuChecking and Maintaining TyresuWear Indicators Wear Indicators Example of a Wear Indicator mark The groove where the wear indicator is located is 1.6 mm shallower than elsewhere on the tyre. If the tread has worn so that the indicator is exposed, replace the tyre. Worn out tyres have poor traction on wet roads. Tyre Service Life The life of your tyres is dependent on many factors, including driving habits, road conditions, vehicle loading, inflation pressure, maintenance history, speed, and environmental conditions (even when the tyres are not in use). Maintenance In addition to regular inspections and inflation pressure maintenance, it is recommended that you have annual inspections performed once the tyres reach five years old. All tyres, including the spare, should be removed from service after 10 years from the date of manufacture, regardless of their condition or state of wear. 277 uuChecking and Maintaining TyresuTyre and Wheel Replacement Tyre and Wheel Replacement Replace your tyres with radials of the same size, load range, speed rating, and maximum cold tyre pressure rating (as shown on the tyre’s sidewall). Using tyres of a different size or construction can cause certain vehicle systems such as the ABS and Vehicle Stability Assist (VSA) system * to work incorrectly. It is best to replace all four tyres at the same time. If that isn’t possible, replace the front or rear tyres in pairs. Make sure that the wheel’s specifications match those of the original wheels. Maintenance 278 * Not available on all models 1Tyre and Wheel Replacement 3 WARNING Installing improper tyres 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 tyres recommended in the tyre information label on your vehicle. uuChecking and Maintaining TyresuTyre Rotation Tyre Rotation Rotating tyres according to the maintenance schedule helps to distribute wear more evenly and increase tyre life. ■ Your Vehicle’s Tyre Rotation Pattern Rotate the tyres, including a spare, as shown here. Drive Type Tyres without rotation mark 1Tyre Rotation Tyres with directional tread patterns should only be rotated front to back (not from one side to the other). Directional tyres should be mounted with the rotation indication mark facing forward, as shown below.

Promptly wipe it away using a soft cloth and clean water. NOTICE Chemical solvents and strong cleaners can damage the paint, metal, and plastic on your vehicle. Wipe away spills immediately. 1Maintaining the Bumpers and Other Resin Coated Parts Ask a dealer about the correct coating material when you want to repair the painted surface of the parts made of resin. ■ Cleaning the Window Wipe using a glass cleaner. ■ Maintaining Aluminium Wheels * * Not available on all models Continued Maintenance Aluminium is susceptible to deterioration caused by salt and other road contaminants. When necessary, as early as possible use a sponge and mild detergent to wipe away these contaminants. Do not use a stiff brush or harsh chemicals (including some commercial wheel cleaners). These can damage the protective finish on aluminium alloy wheels, resulting in corrosion. Depending on the type of finish, the wheels also may lose their luster or appear burnished. To avoid water stains, wipe the wheels dry with a cloth while they are still wet. 289 uuCleaninguExterior Care ■ Fogged Exterior Light Lens The inside lenses of exterior lights (headlights, brake lights, etc.) may fog temporarily if you have driven in the rain, or after the vehicle has been run through a car wash. Dew condensation also may build up inside the lenses when there is a significant enough difference between the ambient and inside lens temperatures (similar to vehicle windows fogging up in rainy conditions). These conditions are natural processes, not structural design problems in the exterior lights. Lens design characteristics may result in moisture developing on the light lens frame surfaces. This also is not a malfunction. However, if you see large amounts of water accumulation, or large water drops building up inside the lenses, have your vehicle inspected by a dealer. Maintenance 290 Accessories and Modifications Accessories When installing accessories, check the following: • Do not install accessories on the windscreen. They can obstruct your view and delay your reaction to driving conditions. • Be sure electronic accessories do not overload electrical circuits or interfere with proper operation of your vehicle. 2 Fuses P. 315 • Before installing any electronic accessory, have the installer contact a dealer for assistance. If possible, have a dealer inspect the final installation. Modifications Do not modify your vehicle in a manner that may affect its handling, stability, or reliability, or install non-genuine Honda parts or accessories that may have a similar effect. Even minor modifications to vehicle systems can affect overall vehicle performance. Always make sure all equipment is properly installed and maintained, and do not make any modification to your vehicle or its systems that might cause your vehicle to no longer meet your country’s and local regulations. 3 WARNING Improper accessories or modifications can affect your vehicle's handling, stability, and performance, and cause a crash in which you can be seriously hurt or killed. Follow all instructions in this owner's manual regarding accessories and modifications.
