HONDA 2006 Accord Coupe - Owner's Manual - Manual (Page 67)

In certain weather conditions,
temperature readings near freezing
(32°F, 0°C) could mean that ice is
forming on the road surface.
When the temperature reaches the
desired value, release the Select/
Reset knob. You should see the new
outside temperature displayed.
NOTE: The temperature must be
stabilized before doing this
procedure.
If the outside temperature is
incorrectly displayed, you can adjust
it
5°F in U.S. models ( 3°C in
Canadian models) warmer or cooler. This indicator displays the outside
temperature in Fahrenheit (U.S.
models) or Centigrade (Canadian
models). To see the outside
temperature, press and release the
Select/Reset knob until the
temperature is displayed.
The temperature sensor is in the
front bumper. Therefore, the
temperature reading can be affected
by heat reflection from the road
surface, engine heat, and the
exhaust from surrounding traffic.
This can cause an incorrect
temperature reading when your
speed is under 19 mph (30 km/h).
The sensor delays the indicator
update until it reaches the correct
outside temperature. This may take
several minutes.
Select the outside temperature
indicator, then press the Select/
Reset knob for 10 seconds. The
following sequence will appear for 1
second each: 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5,
5, 4,
3, 2, 1, 0 (U.S.) or 0, 1, 2, 3,
3, 2, 1, 0 (Canada).
If you fuel cap is loose or missing, a
‘‘CHECK FUEL CAP’’ message
appears in the information display
after you start the engine. Turn the
engine off and confirm the fuel cap is
installed. If it is, loosen the cap, then
retighten it until it clicks at least
once. When you restart the engine,
the message appears again. To clear
the message, press and release the
Select/Reset knob.
