Odometer The odometer shows the total distance your vehicle has been driven. It measures miles in U.S. models and kilometers in Canadian models. It is illegal under U.S. federal law and Canadian provincial regulations to disconnect, reset, or alter the odometer with the intent to change the number of miles or kilometers indicated.

Trip Meter The trip meter shows the number of miles (U.S.) or kilometers (Canada) driven since you last reset it.

The odometer and the trip meters use the same display. Switch these displays by pressing the Select/ Reset knob.

60

There are two trip meters: Trip A and Trip B. Each trip meter works independently, so you can keep track of two different distances.

To reset a trip meter, display it and then press and hold the Select/Reset knob until the number resets to ‘‘0.0’’.

Current Fuel Mileage This display shows the current, or instantaneous fuel mileage you are getting.

It shows the number of miles per hour and mpg (U.S.) or kilometers per hour and l/100 km (Canada).

You can turn off this display at any time. See page

Trip Mileage

TRIP MILEAGE (TRIP A)

U.S. Model is shown.

When a trip meter is displayed, the average fuel mileage you have been getting during that trip is shown in the Fuel Mileage display. This number is updated once per ten seconds.

When you reset a trip meter, the average fuel mileage for that trip meter also resets.

Fuel Gauge This shows how much fuel you have. It may show slightly more or less than the actual amount.

Avoid driving with an extremely low f uel level. Running out of f uel could cause the engine to misf ire, damaging the catalytic converter.

Turning Off the Mileage Display You can temporarily turn off the Current Fuel Mileage display.

1.

Turn the ignition switch to ON (II) and make sure the transmission is in Neutral (manual) or Park (automatic) and the parking brake is set.

2.

Use the Select/Reset knob to select the odometer display.

3.

Press and hold the Select/Reset knob for about 10 to 15 seconds, then release it. The Current Fuel Mileage display will turn off.

The display will turn back on when you repeat the same procedure in step 3.

IMA BATTERY LEVEL GAUGE

climbing a long hill. The engine will recharge the battery as you continue driving.

If the battery is mostly discharged, the Auto Idle Stop function is disabled (see pages and

129

135

).

The battery level gauge does not read the battery level directly. It calculates the level by continuously measuring the current flow, voltage, and temperature.

Since the level is not read directly, small sensing errors can, over time, cause the gauge to read higher than the actual battery level. The system will then perform a correction, and the battery level gauge reading will drop suddenly. When this happens, IMA assist and Auto Idle Stop are disabled until the IMA battery is sufficiently recharged by normal driving. This should take only a few minutes.

This gauge shows you the state of charge of the battery for the Integrated Motor Assist (IMA). This battery is recharged by the engine, anddischargedbytheIMAwhenit is assisting the engine with powering the vehicle.

The gauge reading may drop near the bottom under driving conditions that require assist for a long time, such as prolonged acceleration or

Gauges

If the IMA battery is too hot or too cold, the IMA system shuts down to protect the battery. This disables the IMA assist and Auto Idle Stop, even though the Battery Level Gauge may show that the battery is well-charged. Therefore, those functions may not operate when you first start driving in very hot or cold weather.

The battery temperature will normalize after a few minutes of driving, and the IMA system will work normally.

Charge/Assist Gauge

IMA CHARGE GAUGE

IMA ASSIST GAUGE

This gauge shows you the status of the Integrated Motor Assist (IMA). When the IMA battery is being charged, the left side of the gauge illuminates. When the IMA is assisting the engine, the right side of the gauge illuminates.

Temperature Gauge This shows the temperature of the engine’s coolant. During normal operation, the reading should be in the middle of the gauge. In severe driving conditions, such as very hot weather or a long period of uphill driving, the reading may reach near the red mark. If it reaches the red (Hot) mark, pull safely to the side of the road. See page instructions and precautions on checking the engine’s cooling system.

Keys and Locks

KEY NUMBER TAG

MASTER KEYS (Black)

VALET KEY (Gray)

You should have received a key number tag with your set of keys. You will need this key number if you ever have to get a key replaced. Use only Honda-approved key blanks.

These keys contain electronic circuits that are activated by the Immobilizer System. They will not work to start the engine if the circuits are damaged.

Protect the keys from direct sunlight, high temperature, and high humidity.

Do not drop the keys or set heavy objects on them.

Keep the keys away from liquids. If they get wet, dry them immediately with a soft cloth.

The keys do not contain batteries. Do not try to take them apart.

The master key fits all the locks on your vehicle.

The valet key works only in the ignition and the door locks. You can keep the trunk and trunk release handle locked when you leave your vehicle and the valet key at a parking facility.

If the system repeatedly does not recognize the coding of your key, contact your dealer.

Do not attempt to alter this system or add other devices to it. Electrical problems could result that may make your vehicle undriveable.

If you have lost your key and cannot start your engine, contact your dealer.

The Immobilizer System protects your vehicle from theft. If an improperly-coded key (or other device) is used, the engine’s fuel system is disabled.

When you turn the ignition switch to ON (II), the Immobilizer System indicator should come on for a few seconds, then go out. If the indicator starts to blink, it means the system does not recognize the coding of the key. Turn the ignition switch to LOCK (0), remove the key, reinsert it, and turn the switch to ON (II) again.

The system may not recognize your key’s coding if another immobilizer key or other metal object (i.e. key fob) is near the ignition switch when you insert the key.
