INTRODUCTION TABLE OF CONTENTS
This Owner’s Guide is intended to help you quickly get acquainted with your
2016 Honda Civic Coupe. It provides basic information and instructions on technology
and convenience features, as well as emergency procedures and how to get assistance.
This guide is for vehicles sold in the United States and Canada. It covers all Civic Coupe models, so you may nd descriptions of features and equipment that are not in your
vehicle. Images throughout this guide are from U.S. vehicles and represent features and equipment that are available on some, but not all, models.
This guide is not intended to be a substitute for the Owner’s Manual. The Owner
Information CD enclosed in your glove box kit includes the Owner’s Manual, Navigation
Manual, and vehicle and tire warranties in electronic format. This information can be
viewed on a computer (PC or Mac platform) and saved or printed for your reference. You can also visit owners.honda.com (U.S.) or myhonda.ca (Canada) to view the complete
and most current information.
If you are the rst registered owner of your vehicle, you may request a complimentary
printed copy of the Owner’s Manual, Navigation Manual, or Vehicle Warranty within the
rst six months of vehicle purchase. To request a copy, visit owners.honda.com (U.S.)
and create or log in to your account. In Canada, please request a copy from your Honda
dealer. American Honda Motor Co., Inc. strives to be proactive in protecting our environment
and natural resources. By using electronic delivery for a considerable portion of the
information typically found in a vehicle owner’s manual, we are further reducing our impact on the environment.
