HONDA 2004 CR-V - Owner's Manual - Manual (Page 66)

This shows the temperature of the
engine’s coolant. During normal
operation, the pointer should rise to
about the middle of the gauge. In
severe driving conditions, the pointer
may rise to the upper zone. If it
reaches the red (Hot) mark, pull
safely to the side of the road. Turn to
page
for instructions and
precautions on checking the engine’s
cooling system.
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 30 km/h.
If the outside temperature is
incorrectly displayed, you can adjust
it up to
3°C warmer or cooler.
NOTE: The temperature must be
stabilized before doing this
procedure.
Select the outside temperature
display, then press the Select/Reset
knob for ten seconds. The following
sequence will appear for one second
each: 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5,
5, 4, 3, 2,
1, 0, 1 (0, 1, 2, 3, 3, 2, 1, 0, 1).
When it reaches the desired value,
release the Select/Reset knob. You
should see the new outside
temperature displayed.
In certain weather conditions,
temperature readings near freezing 0
°C could mean that ice is forming on
the road surface.
This light displays the outside
temperature Centigrade.
