HONDA 2004 Civic Coupe - Owner's Manual - Manual (Page 186)

These indicators between the tacho-
meter and speedometer show which
position the shift lever is in.
The ‘‘D’’ indicator comes on for a
few seconds when you turn the
ignition switch to ON (II). If it
flashes while driving (in any shift
position), it indicates a possible
problem in the transmission.
If the malfunction indicator lamp
comes on along with the ‘‘D’’
indicator, there is a problem in the
automatic transmission control
system. Avoid rapid acceleration and
have the transmission checked by a
Honda dealer as soon as possible.
To shift from any position, press
firmly on the brake pedal and press
the release button on the side of the
shift lever. You cannot shift out of
Park when the ignition switch is in
LOCK (0) or ACCESSORY (I).
