Modifications
Do not modify your vehicle in a manner that may affect its handling, stability, or
reliability, or install non-genuine Acura pa rts or accessories that may have a similar
effect.
The on-board diagnostic port (OBD-II/J2534 connector) installed on this vehicle only
is intended to be used with automobile system diagnostic devices. Use of any other
type of device may adversely affect the vehi cle’s electronic systems or allow them to
be compromised, and could result in a sy stem malfunction, drained battery or other
unexpected problem.
Even minor modifications to vehicle systems can affect overall vehicle performance.
Always make sure all equipment is properly installed and maintained, and do not
make any modification to your vehicle or its systems that might cause your vehicle
to no longer meet federal, state, pr ovince, territory, and local regulations.
Do not modify or attempt to repair your vehicle’s high-voltage hybrid power system
or otherwise modify vehicle electrical syst ems. Disassembling or modifying electrical
equipment can result in a crash or a fire.
If you ever need to replace your vehicle’s high-voltage battery assembly outside of
warranty coverage, we highly recommend that you only use a genuine Acura high-
voltage battery assembly. Genuine Acura high-voltage battery assemblies are
designed to work with your vehicle's hybrid power system and have been designed,
engineered and manufactured to avoid overcharging situations. Non-genuine high-
voltage battery assemblies may not have b een similarly designed, engineered and
manufactured, and installation of such assemb lies could result in overcharging, fires,
loss of power, or other conditions that may increase the likelihood of a crash or
injury.
