If you keep driving with the

malfunction indicator lamp on,

you can damage your vehicle's

emissions controls and engine.
Those repairs may not be covered
by your vehicle's warranties.

Reduced Power

Indicator

This light comes on for a few
seconds when you turn the key to
the " O N " position

If it comes on at any other time, it
indicates that there is a problem in
the throttle "drive-by-wire"

system. With the light on, your
vehicle goes into "limp home"
mode — the engine runs on three
cylinders, and the accelerator
pedal no longer controls engine
speed.

As soon as it is safe, pull off the
road and turn off the engine.
Restart the engine to reset the
system. If the light remains on, or
comes on again while driving,
have the vehicle towed to your
Honda dealer for repair.

Turn Signal

Indicators

A green light flashing on the
instrument panel lets you know
that the front and rear turn signal
lights are working. If the light
stays on and does not flash, check
for a burned out bulb. If there is
no light when the lever is moved,

check the fuse and bulb.
Whenever the Hazard Warning
Flasher Switch is on, both turn
signals will flash.

Low Fuel Indicator

This light comes on when the tank
becomes nearly empty. Fill up the
tank as soon as possible.

If the low fuel indicator light
comes on when the fuel tank is
not nearly empty, have the fuel
tank sensing unit and related
components inspected and
repaired by your Honda dealer.

Driving on a road with many
sharp curves may cause the fuel
indicator light to blink
intermittently. This is normal.

Low Oil

Pressure Indicator

This light is designed to come on
to provide a "bulb check" when
the key is turned to the " O N "
position, but should go out after
