Warning and Indicator Lights

Shift Lever Position indicator (Automatic Transmission only) A lighted indicator between the fuel and coolant temperature
gauges shows which gear you have selected.
NOTE:
The S3 indicator light in the instrument panel also serves a second
function, if the light flashes while driving (in any gear range) it indicates a possible malfunction in the transmission; avoid rapid
acceleration and have the transmission checked by an authorized Honda dealer as soon as possible.
Turn Signal/Hazard Warning Indicator Lights
When the turn signal lever is pushed for left or right turns, the appropriate green indicator arrow on the instrument panel will blink
along with the signal. Turning on the hazard warning switch willmake all turn signals and both arrows blink (see page 33).

time the ignition switch is turned on (see page 13).

NOTE:

If the headlight motor switch is pushed in, the headlights will not
retract when the light switch is turned off.
If the headlights neither rise nor retract, they can be operated
manually; see page 123.

If you're driving in wet snow or freezing rain, keep the headlights
in the raised position by using the headlight motor switch; this
way,they can still be used if the headlight motors freeze. If the headlights have frozen in either the up or down position,
remove all ice before operating the headlight motors.
High Beam/Low Beam Switch
The headlights may be switched between low beam and high beamby pulling the turn signal lever
towards you until a click is felt. The blue high beam indicator light will be
on when the high beam is on.

Headlight Flasher

The headlights need not be turned on to use them as a passing signal in the daytime. First raise them with the headlight motor switch,
then lightly pull and release the light switch.
CAUTION:
Do not operate the headlight switch or headlight motor switch if
anyone's hands are near the headlights.
