overheating of the engine could
result. Have the system checked
as soon as possible.
Malfunction Indicator
Lamp
The indicator light should turn on
when the key is turned to the
“
ON” position, but should go out
after the engine is started. (The
light will stay on a short time after
the engine starts.)
If the light stays on, or comes on
while driving, it indicates a
problem in the engine emissions
control system. Have your Honda
dealer inspect the system and
correct the problem.
If this indicator starts flashing as
you drive, engine misfiring has
been detected. Misfiring can
damage the catalytic converter

64Instruments and Controls
and the engine. Stop as soon as it
is safe, turn off the engine, and
call for assistance.

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 “ON” 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.

75Instruments and Controls
Turn Signal Lever
Push the lever fully up to signal a
right turn. Push it fully down to
signal a left turn. Lights on the
front and rear of the vehicle will
flash.
The turn signal will cancel itself as
the turn is completed. In some
driving maneuvers, such as
changing lanes on an expressway,the steering wheel is not turned
back sufficiently after completing
the turn to automatically cancel the
turn signal. In such maneuvers the
driver should manually return the
lever to the neutral or canceled
position when the turn is
completed.
Lane Change Signal
In some turns, such as changing
lanes, the steering wheel is not
turned far enough to cancel the
turn signal. For convenience, you
can flash the turn signal by
moving the lever part way (to the
first stop) and holding it there.
The lever will return to the
horizontal position when you
release it.
A green light on the instrument
panel flashes to indicate proper
operation of the front and rear
turn signal lights. If the green
light remains on, but does not
flash, check for defective bulbs
If the green light does not light
when the lever is moved, check
the fuse and indicator bulb.

76Instruments and Controls
Hazard Warning Flasher
Push the button to turn on the
hazard warning lights (four-way
flashers). All four outside turn
signal lights and both indicators in
the instrument panel will flash.
Push the button again to turn them
off.
The turn signals do not work
when the hazard warning lights
are on.
Use the hazard warning lights to
warn other drivers that your
vehicle is a potential road hazard.
Avoid stopping on the roadway if
possible.
Cruise Control
Refer to page 147 for operation of
this system.
The shift lever position indicator
is in the instrument panel. The
appropriate letter or number
illuminates to show what position
the shift lever is in.
The 4-speed automatic
transmission shift lever is
arranged with “P” (Park) position
at one end, followed in sequence
by “R” (Reverse), “N” (Neutral)
