HONDA 2004 Civic Coupe - Owner's Manual - Manual (Page 14)

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 ride in
the front. See pages
for
important guidelines on how to
properly protect infants, small
children, and larger children who
ride in your vehicle.
After everyone has entered the
vehicle, be sure the doors are closed
and locked.
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.
Locking the doors also helps prevent
an outsider from unexpectedly
opening a door when you come to a
stop.
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.
Your vehicle has a door monitor
indicator on the instrument panel to
indicate when a specific door is not
tightly closed.
See page for how to lock the
doors, and page for how the
monitor indicator works.
