HONDA 2011 Civic Coupe - Manual (Page 17)

Adjust the driver’s seat as far to the
rear as possible while allowing you to
maintain full control of the vehicle.
Have a front passenger adjust their
seat as far to the rear as possible.
See pages for important
guidelines on how to properly
protect infants, small children, and
larger children who ride in your
vehicle.
The following pages provide
instructions on how to properly
protect the driver, adult passengers,
and teenage children who are large
enough and mature enough to drive
or ride in the front.
After everyone has entered the
vehicle, be sure the doors are closed
and locked.
Your vehicle has a door-
open indicator on the
instrument panel to indicate when
either door is not tightly closed.
Locking the doors also helps prevent
an outsider from unexpectedly
opening a door when you come to a
stop.
Locking the doors reduces the
chance of someone being thrown out
of the vehicle during a crash, and it
helps prevent passengers from
accidentally opening a door and
falling out.
Some models have the auto door
locking/unlocking feature. For more
information, see page
.
See page for how to lock the
doors, and page for how the door-
open indicator works.
