To Keep the IMA Battery in Good Condition Drive your vehicle at least once a month for more than 30 minutes. Parking your vehicle for an extended period can cause the IMA battery to weaken or decrease the IMA battery life.


Safety Precautions Do not cover the air intake.


Do not touch the Honda IMA System A high voltage current runs through Honda IMA System. Consult your authorized dealer when maintenance or repair is needed.


Air Intake


If the air intake is obstructed during vehicle operation, the IMA battery can become too hot. To protect the battery, the system may start limiting IMA battery output power and cause the IMA system and 12 volt battery charging system indicators to come on.


Do not spill any liquids on or around the IMA battery, as they can damage the IMA battery. If you accidentally spill liquids on or around the battery, ensure that the spill is completely wiped up as soon as possible. The IMA system indicator may come on.


IMA Battery


IMA Power Cable


If a crash occurs ● Be careful of electric shock hazard.


u If a crash severely damaged your vehicle, there is a possibility of electrical shock. Do not


touch the IMA system components or its wiring (orange).


● Avoid contact with IMA battery fluid.


u The battery fluid may leak as a result of a crash. Avoid any skin or eye contact with the fluid. The battery fluid is corrosive. If you accidentally touched it, flush your eyes or skin with a large quantity of water for at least five minutes, and seek medical attention immediately.

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.


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. 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 belongs 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.


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 Safe Driving


The following pages explain your vehicle's safety features and how to use them properly. The safety precautions below are ones that we consider to be among the most important.


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 passenger always wear your seat belts, and wear them properly.


■ Your vehicle is not recommended for child passengers The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration and Transport Canada recommend that all children age 12 and under be properly restrained in a back seat. Since this vehicle does not have a back seat, we strongly recommend that you do not carry any child who is not large enough and mature enough to ride in front.


■ 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.

1Important Safety Precautions


Some states, provinces and territories prohibit the use of cell phones other than hands-free devices by the driver while driving.


Never carry an infant in a rear-facing child seat in this vehicle. If an older child must ride in this vehicle, follow all child safety instructions and warnings in this manual.

uuFor Safe DrivinguImportant Safety Precautions


■ Pay appropriate attention to the task of driving safely 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.


■ 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.


■ Keep your vehicle in safe condition Having a tire blowout or a mechanical failure can be extremely hazardous. To reduce the possibility of such problems, check your tire pressures and condition frequently, and perform all regularly scheduled maintenance.

1Your Vehicle's Safety Features


Your vehicle is equipped with many features that work together to help protect you and your passenger during a crash.


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 seat belts in a sufficient crash.


However, you and your passenger 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.
