California Proposition 65 Warning 
Event Data Recorders 
This vehicle is equipped with an event data recorder (EDR). 
The main purpose of an EDR is to  record, in certain crash or near 
crash-like situations, such as an air bag deployment or hitting a  
road obstacle, data that will assi st in understanding how a vehicle’s 
systems performed.  The EDR is designed to record data related 
to vehicle dynamics and safety systems for a short period of 
time, typically 30 seconds or le ss. The EDR in this vehicle is 
designed to record such data as:• How various systems in your  vehicle were operating;
• Whether or not the driver and passenger safety belts were  
buckled/fastened;
• How far (if at all) the driver  was depressing the accelerator 
and/or brake pedal; and,
• How fast the vehicle was traveling.
These data can help provide a better understanding of the  
circumstances in which crashes and  injuries occur. NOTE: EDR data 
are recorded by your vehicle only  if a non-trivial crash situation 
occurs; no data are recorded by the EDR under normal driving 
conditions and no personal data (e.g., name, gender, age, and  
crash location) are recorded. Howe ver, other parties, such as law 
enforcement, could combine the  EDR data with the type of 
personally identifying data routinely acquired during a crash 
investigation.
WARNING:   This product contains or emits 
chemicals known to the state of California to cause  
cancer and birth defects or other reproductive 
harm.
To read data recorded by an ED R, special equipment is required, 
and access to the vehicle or the  EDR is needed. In addition to the 
vehicle manufacturer, other parties,  such as law enforcement, that 
have the special equipment, can re ad the information if they have 
access to the vehicle or the EDR. 
The data belongs to the vehicle ow ner and may not be accessed by 
anyone else except as legally requ ired or with the permission of the 
vehicle owner. 
Service Diagnostic Recorders 
This vehicle is equipped with serv ice-related devices that record 
information about powertrain perform ance. The data can be used 
to verify emissions law requirem ents and/or help technicians 
diagnose and solve service problems.  It may also be combined with 
data from other sources for res earch purposes, but it remains 
confidential. 
California Perchlorate Contamination Prevention Act 
The airbags, seat belt tensioners , and CR type batteries in this 
vehicle may contain perchlorate materials - special handling may  apply. See  www.dtsc.ca.gov/hazardouswaste/perchlorate/
As you read this manual, you will  find information that is preceded 
by a   symbol. This information is  intended to help you avoid 
damage to your vehicle, othe r property, or the environment.

Safe Driving
Airbag Care 
You do not need to, and should not, perform any maintenance on or replace any  
airbag system components yourself. However, you should have your vehicle  
inspected by a dealer in the following situations:
■ When the airbags have deployed
If an airbag has inflated, the control unit  and other related parts must be replaced. 
Similarly, once an automatic seat belt te nsioner has been activated, it must be 
replaced. ■ When the vehicle has been in a moderate-to-severe collision
Even if the airbags did not infl ate, have your dealer inspect the following: the driver’s 
seat position sensor, weight sensors in the passenger’s seat, front seat belt  
tensioners, and each seat belt that was worn during the crash.
■ Do not remove or modi fy a front seat without consulting a dealer
This would likely disable or affect the proper  operation of the driver’s seat position 
sensor or the weight sensors in the passenge r’s seat. If it is necessary to remove or 
modify a front seat to accommodate a pe rson with disabilities, contact a Honda 
dealer, or for U.S. vehicles, American H onda Automobile Customer Service at 800-
999-1009 and for Canadian vehicles, Honda  Canada Customer Relations at 888-9-
HONDA-9.
1Airbag Care 
We recommend against the use of salvaged airbag  
system components, including the airbag, tensioners,  
sensors, and control unit.
