If the light comes on at any other
time, or does not come on at all, you
should have the system checked by
your dealer. For example:

If the SRS indicator light does not
come on after you turn the ignition
ON (II).

If the light stays on after the
engine starts.

If the light comes on or flashes on
and off while you drive.

When you turn the ignition ON (II),
this indicator will light briefly then
go out. This tells you that the system
is working properly.

If you see any of these indications,
your front or side airbags may not
deploy, your passenger’s side airbag
automatic cutoff system may not
work properly, or your seat belt
tensioners may not work when you
need them. See your Honda dealer
as soon as possible.

The purpose of the SRS
indicator light is to alert

you to a potential problem with your
front airbags. On cars with side
airbags, this light will also alert you
to a potential problem with your
automatic seat belt tensioners (page

); or your side airbags or

passenger’s side airbag automatic
cutoff system (page

).
