Diagnostic Info
When an indicator comes on or a
message is displayed on the Multi-
Information Display (MID),
AcuraLink can provide information
about the cause of the indicator or
message and the recommended
action to address it. This helps you
handle the problem as it occurs,
preventing or limiting costly repairs.
The AcuraLink system cannot
determine some mechanical
problems (such as squeaks or
rattles) that are not triggered by the
diagnostic indicator monitors.
For more information on the
instrument panel indicators, see page
64.
When any indicator comes on or a
message is displayed on the MID,
AcuraLink immediately notifies you
with the message,‘‘An indicator is
on. AcuraLink can help you decide
what to do. ’’
If you do not want the information
right away, select the Check Later
option. If you want the information now,
select the Check Now option. (If the
navigation screen is not active, you
must select OK from the navigation
disclaimer screen before you can
check the information.)
Depending on the severity of the
problem, the message will let you
know if you should see your dealer
immediately or if you can wait until a
later date.

On models with navigation systemRefer to the navigation system
manual for operation of the rearview
camera.
On models without navigation systemYou can turn the camera display on
and off by pressing the power button
when the shift lever is in reverse.
The camera display turns on every
time you shift to reverse, even if you
turned it off the last time.
Whenever you shift to reverse (R)
with the ignition switch in the ON
(II) position, the rear view appears on
a display in the rearview mirror.
For the best picture, always keep the
rearview camera clean, and do not
cover the camera lens. To avoid
scratching the lens when you clean
it, use a moist, soft cloth.
Since the rearview camera display
area is limited, you should always
back up slowly and carefully, and
look behind you for obstacles.

If the engine has just been started, it
may take a short time for the system
to display the rear view.
The camera display brightness is
adjusted automatically by sensors. If
you use the camera display
continuously at high temperatures,
the image will gradually dim.
The inside mirror will be hot when
you use the monitor for an extended
period of time.
If a bright light (such as sunlight) is
reflected on the mirror, the image
may be difficult to see.
Rearview Camera Guide Line
The camera display has parking
guide lines that indicate distance
from your vehicle.
1st Line 7.8 in (0.2 m)
2nd Line 39 in (1 m)
3rd Line 79 in (2 m)
4th Line 118 in (3 m)
NOTE:●The rearview camera has a unique
lens that makes objects appear
closer than they actually are.●The rearview camera display has
limited coverage, and the size and
position of objects may appear
different than they actually are.
Make sure to check the
surrounding area carefully.
To turn off the guide lines, press and
hold the power button for more than
3 seconds. The guide lines appear
every time you shift to reverse, even
if you turned them off the last time.

Break-in Period
Help assure your vehicle's future
reliability and performance by paying
extra attention to how you drive
during the first 600 miles (1,000 km).
During this period:●Avoid full-throttle starts and rapid
acceleration.●Avoid hard braking for the first 200
miles (300 km).●Do not change the oil until the
multi-information display indicates
it is needed.●Do not tow a trailer.
You should also follow these
recommendations with an
overhauled or exchanged engine, or
when the brakes are replaced. Fuel Recommendation
Your vehicle is designed to operate
on premium unleaded gasoline with
a pump octane of 91 or higher. If this
octane grade is unavailable, regular
unleaded gasoline with a pump
octane of 87 or higher may be used
temporarily. The use of regular
unleaded gasoline can cause metallic
knocking noises in the engine and
will result in decreased engine
performance. The long-term use of
regular-grade gasoline can lead to
engine damage.
We recommend quality gasolines
containing detergent additives that
help prevent fuel system and engine
deposits.
In addition, in order to maintain good
performance, fuel economy, and
emissions control, we strongly
recommend, in areas where it is
available, the use of gasoline that
does NOT contain manganese-based
fuel additives such as MMT.Use of gasoline with these additives
may adversely affect performance,
and cause the malfunction indicator
lamp on your instrument panel to
come on. If this happens, contact
your dealer for service.
Some gasoline today is blended with
oxygenates such as ethanol or
MTBE. Your vehicle is designed to
operate on oxygenated gasoline
containing up to 10% ethanol by
volume and up to 15% MTBE by
volume. Do not use gasoline
containing methanol.
If you notice any undesirable
operating symptoms, try another
service station or switch to another
brand of gasoline.Break-in Period, Fuel Recommendation45409/10/28 17:15:37 10 ACURA ZDX KA KC New North America Own 50 31SZN600 enu

4. Remove the fuel fill cap slowly. Youmay hear a hissing sound as
pressure inside the tank equalizes.
Place the cap in the holder on the
fuel fill door.
5. Stop filling the tank after the fuel nozzle automatically clicks off. Do
not try to ‘‘top off ’’the tank. Leave
some room for the fuel to expand
with temperature changes. If the fuel nozzle keeps clicking off
even though the tank is not full, there
may be a problem with your vehicle's
fuel vapor recovery system. The
system helps keep fuel vapor from
going into the atmosphere. Try filling
at another pump. If this does not fix the
problem, consult your dealer.
6. Screw the fuel fill cap back on until it clicks at least once. If you do not
properly tighten the cap, you will see
a‘‘TIGHTEN FUEL CAP’’ message
on the multi-information display (see
right column on this page), and the
malfunction indicator lamp may also
come on (see page 593).
7. Push the fuel fill door closed until it latches.
Tighten Fuel Cap MessageYour vehicle's on board diagnostic
system will detect a loose or missing
fuel fill cap as an evaporative system
leak. The first time a leak is detected
a‘‘TIGHTEN FUEL CAP ’’message
appears on the multi-information
display. Turn the engine off, and
confirm the fuel fill cap is installed. If
it is, loosen it, then retighten it until
it clicks at least once.
