A good coat of automotive body wax helps to protect your vehicle’s paint from the
elements. Wax will wear off over time and expose your vehicle’s paint to the
elements, so reapply as necessary.

If you get petrol, oil, engine coolant, or battery fluid on resin coated parts, they may
be stained or the coating may peel. Promptly wipe it away using a soft cloth and
clean water.

Wipe using a glass cleaner.

Water repellent glass

*

The front side windows are fitted with water repellent agent glasses that disperse
water into droplets. To clean the front side windows, wash off with water, or wipe
with a soft damp cloth.

Using a glass cleaner may temporarily prevent the water repellent glasses from
dispersing water. Rinsing the glasses with water can make them water repellent
again. If you find that the glass has stopped dispersing water, consult a dealer.

Cleaning the Window

To make the water-repellent effect last longer, do the
following:

Avoid opening and closing the front side windows
when the windows are covered with dirt.

Avoid using a glass cleaner with polishing
compounds, wax, or detergent.

Avoid scraping off frosts on the windows using a
metallic tool.

Dirt off the windows before using an automated
car wash.

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 lustre or appear burnished. To avoid water stains,
wipe the wheels dry with a cloth while they are still wet.

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.

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.

Do not install any accessories over areas marked SRS Airbag, on the sides or backs
of the front seats, on front or side pillars, or near the side windows.
Accessories installed in these areas may interfere with proper operation of the
vehicle’s airbags or may be propelled into you or another occupant if the airbags
deploy.

Be sure electronic accessories do not overload electrical circuits or interfere with
proper operation of your vehicle.

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.

The on-board diagnostic port (OBD-II/SAE J1962 connector) installed on this vehicle
is intended to be used with automobile system diagnostic devices or with other
devices that Honda has approved. Use of any other type of device may adversely
affect the vehicle’s electronic systems or allow them to be compromised, possibly
resulting in a system malfunction, drained battery, or other unexpected problems.

Do not modify or attempt to repair your vehicle’s high-voltage hybrid power system
or otherwise modify vehicle electrical systems. Disassembling or modifying electrical
equipment can result in a crash or a fire.

If you ever need to replace your vehicle’s high-voltage battery assembly outside of
warranty coverage, we highly recommend that you only use a genuine Honda high-
voltage battery assembly. Genuine Honda high-voltage battery assemblies are
designed to work with your vehicle’s hybrid power system and have been designed,
engineered and manufactured to avoid overcharging situations. Non-genuine high-
voltage battery assemblies may not have been similarly designed, engineered and
manufactured, and installation of such assemblies could result in overcharging, fires,
loss of power, or other conditions that may increase the likelihood of a crash or
injury.

If a Tyre Goes Flat

Temporarily Repairing a Flat Tyre

If the tyre has a large cut or is otherwise severely damaged, you will need to have
the vehicle towed. If the tyre only has a small puncture, from a nail for instance, you
can use the temporary tyre repair kit so that you can drive to the nearest service
station for a more permanent repair.

If a tyre goes flat while driving, grasp the steering wheel firmly, and brake gradually
to reduce speed. Then, stop in a safe place.

1.

Park the vehicle on a firm, level, non-slippery ground and apply the parking brake.

2.

Put the transmission into

The kit should not be used in the following situations.
Instead, contact a dealer or a roadside assistant to
have the vehicle towed.

The tyre sealant has expired.

More than one tyre is punctured.

The puncture or cut is larger than 4 mm (3/16 inch).

The tyre side wall is damaged or the puncture is
outside the contact area.

Damage has been caused by driving with the tyres
extremely under inflated.

The tyre bead is no longer seated.

The rim is damaged.

Do not remove a nail or screw that punctured the

NOTICE

Do not operate the temporary tyre repair kit
compressor for more than 15 minutes. The
compressor can overheat and become permanently
damaged.

Until the sealant injection is complete, the pressure
shown on the pressure gauge will appear higher than
actual. After the sealant injection is complete the
pressure will drop and then begin to rise again as the
tyre is inflated with air. This is normal. To accurately
measure the air pressure using the gauge, turn the air
compressor off only after the sealant injection is
complete.

WARNING

Running the engine with the vehicle in an
enclosed or even partly enclosed area can
cause a rapid buildup of toxic carbon
monoxide.

Breathing this colourless, odourless gas can
cause unconsciousness and even death.
Only run the engine to power the air
compressor with the vehicle outdoors.

Injecting Sealant and Air

If the required air pressure is not reached within 10
minutes, the tyre may be too severely damaged for
the kit to provide the necessary seal and your vehicle
will need to be towed.

See a Honda dealer for a replacement sealant bottle
and proper disposal of an empty bottle.

Inform the use of tyre sealant when you ask a Honda
dealer or the road assistant service for replacing or
repairing the flat tyre.

This air compressor is designed for the automotive
tyre. Check the following:

The power supply of the air compressor is limited to
your vehicle’s 12-volt DC accessory power socket.

Do not operate the temporary tyre repair kit
compressor for more than 15 minutes. The
compressor can overheat and become permanently
damaged.
Make it cool down when using the compressor
continuously.
