HV Button

You can enable HV or HV Charge by pressing the HV button.
The HV indicator comes on regardless of which source you have
enabled. If you press the HV button again, or set the power mode
to VEHICLE OFF or ACCESSORY, the source you have selected will be
cancelled.
● HV
To enable HV, press the HV button. In HV, the engine may run at
times to drive the generator so that battery charge levels can be
maintained.

HV Charge

To enable HV Charge, press the HV button until the HV Charge indicator turns on.
While the vehicle is in HV Charge, the High Voltage battery will continue to charge until the battery charge level display reaches 12
segments. Once the battery reaches this level, the vehicle switches to HV. You can cancel HV Charge before the battery reaches 12 segments
by pressing the HV button.

When the vehicle is in HV Charge, priority is given to the charging of the High Voltage battery. While the battery is being charged, the
engine may run at a higher RPM than usual. The time it takes for the battery to be charged to 12 segments varies depending on driving
conditions.
The high voltage battery can be charged to 12 segments in after about 1 hour of high-speed driving. HV Charge is not recommended for
city driving or other driving situations when you need to stop frequently or drive slowly. In these situations, press the HV button again to
disable HV Charge. If you are in HV and approaching a destination where the vehicle can be charged, you can turn off HV and use the
remaining battery power to drive.

Energy Efficiency

As with a gasoline powered vehicle, the fuel efficiency and the range of this vehicle is most impacted by the driver’s driving style. Aggressive
acceleration and high-speed driving can easily trigger the system to switch the propulsion source to the gasoline-powered engine. Climate
control system usage also has a strong impact with heavy usage negatively affecting the vehicle’s range.

Battery Type

There are two types of batteries used in this vehicle, a standard 12-volt battery that powers the airbags, the interior and exterior lights, and
other standard 12-volt systems, and a high voltage battery that is used to power the propulsion motor and recharge the 12-volt battery.

Hybrid Vehicles

High voltage parts and high voltage wires in this vehicle are sheathed in electromagnetic shielding material; therefore, the amount of
electromagnetic waves emitted is no more greater than those emitted by household appliances or the electrical parts in conventional
vehicles.

Sounds Unique to the Honda Plug-In System

When you first start driving this vehicle, you likely will hear some unfamiliar sounds, particularly when you first turn on the power system,
while driving, and just after parking. Some of these sounds are unique to this vehicle‘s powertrain, fuel, and climate control systems; others
are similar to sounds generated by conventional automobiles that typically are masked by louder noises absent from a vehicle of this design.
These sounds are not a cause for concern, and you will soon recognize them as normal and thus be able to detect any new or unusual noise
should one develop.

Safety Precautions

Do not touch the High Voltage system

Attempting to take a system component apart or disconnect one of its wires can cause
severe electrical shock. If the High Voltage system is in need of maintenance or repair, make
sure that the maintenance or repair is carried out by an authorized Honda Clarity Plug-In
Hybrid dealer.

If a crash occurs

● Be careful of electric shock hazard.

u

If a severe crash damages your vehicle’s High Voltage system, there is a possibility of electrical shock due to exposed High Voltage
components or wires. If this happens, do not touch any of the High Voltage system components or any of its orange wires.

● Avoid contact with High Voltage battery fluid.

u

The High Voltage battery contains a flammable electrolyte that can leak as a result of a severe crash. Avoid any skin or eye contact
with the electrolyte as it is corrosive. If you accidentally come into contact with the electrolyte, rinse the exposed skin or flush your
eyes with copious amounts of water for at least five minutes, then seek medical attention immediately.

● Use a fire extinguisher for an electrical fire.

u

Attempting to extinguish an electrical fire with a small quantity of water can be dangerous.

● Anytime the vehicle is damaged in an accident, have it repaired by an authorized Honda Clarity Plug-In Hybrid dealer.

Emergency Shutdown System for the High Voltage System

If the vehicle is involved in a crash, the emergency shutdown system will activate depending on the severity of the impact. When the system
activates, the High Voltage system automatically shuts down, and the vehicle can no longer move under its own power. To return the High
Voltage system back to normal operation, consult an authorized Honda Clarity Plug-In Hybrid dealer.

Honda collects and recycles High Voltage batteries used in its vehicles. Consult an authorized Honda Clarity Plug-In Hybrid dealer for more
information.
