ActiveHeadRestraints

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

Always replace the head restraints before driving.

Make sure the head restraint locks in position when you reinstall it.

The driver’s and front passenger’s seats have active head restraints. If the vehicle is struck severely from the rear, the occupant properly secured with the seat belt will be pushed against the seat-back and the head restraint will automatically move forward.

Seats

This reduces the distance between the restraint and the occupant’s head. It also helps protect the occupants against the likelihood of whiplash and injuries to the neck and upper spine.

After a collision, the activated restraint should return to its normal position.

If the restraints do not return to their normal position, or in the event of a severe collision, have the vehicle inspected by a Honda dealer.

HEATERS

Driver’s seat

OnallmodelsexceptLX Both front seats are equipped with seat heaters. Because of the sensors for the side airbag cutoff system, there is no heater in the passenger’s seat-back. The ignition switch must be in the ON (II) position to use the heaters.

To use the heaters, press the seat heater switch. The indicator (amber) in the switch will come on. There are three settings in the heaters: HI, LO, and OFF.

When you press the seat heater switch once, the heater is set to HI. Select LO by pressing the seat heater switch again. To shut down the heater, press the seats heater switch until the indicators go off.

Do not use the seat heater in the HI setting for an extended period, because it draws large amounts of current from battery. If the engine is left idling for an extended period, do not use the seat heaters, even on the LO setting. It can weaken the battery, causing hard starting. The heater runs continuously and does not automatically turn off after a period of time.
