Your car comes with two master
keys and a valet key.
The master key fits all the locks on
your car:
• Ignition

The valet key works only in the
ignition and the door locks. You can
keep the trunk and the lower console
compartment locked when you leave
your car and the valet key at a
parking facility.
You should have received a key
number plate with your keys. You
will need this key number if you ever
have to
get a lost key replaced. Keep
the plate stored
in a safe place. If you
need to replace a key, use only
Honda-approved key blanks.
These keys contain electronic
circuits that are activated by the
Immobilizer System.
They will not
work to start the engine if the
circuits are damaged.
• Protect the keys from direct
sunlight, high temperature, and
high humidity.
• Do not drop the keys or set heavy
objects on them.
