Together, airbags and
seat belts provide the best
protection. This could make the front
passenger’s weight sensors
inef f ective. Make sure the right
rear f loor mat is hooked over the
f loor mat anchor (see page ).
Tampering could cause
the airbags to deploy, possibly
causing very serious injury.
If water or another liquid
soaks into a seat-back, it can
prevent the side airbag cutof f
system f rom working properly.
This could make the
driver’s seat position sensor and

sensors inef f ective. Improperly
replacing or covering f ront seat-
back covers can prevent your side

pulling on the back of the seat,

on the seat back can interf ere with

Towing generally requires a variety
of supplemental equipment. To
ensure the best quality, we
recommend that you purchase
Honda equipment whenever possible.
Discuss any additional needs with
your trailer sales or rental agency,
and make sure all equipment is
properly installed, maintained, and
also meets state and province
regulations.
Any hitch used on your vehicle must
be properly bolted to the underbody.Honda recommends that any trailer
having a total weight of 1,000 lbs
(450 kg) or more be equipped with
its own electric or surge-type brakes.
If you choose electric brakes, be
sure they are electrically actuated.
Do not attempt to tap into your
vehicle’s hydraulic system. No
matter how successf ul it may seem,
any attempt to attach trailer brakes
to your vehicle’s hydraulic system
will lower braking ef f ectiveness and
create a potential hazard.

brakes.Trailer lights and equipment must
comply with f ederal, state, province,
and local regulations. Check with
your local recreational vehicle dealer
f or the requirements in your area,
and use only equipment designed f or

Since lighting and wiring vary by
trailer type and brand, you should
have a qualif ied technician install a
suitable connector between the
