INTRODUCTION
This Owner’s Guide is intended to help you quickly get acquainted with your
2017 Acura RLX. 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 RLX
models except for Sport Hybrid, so you may find 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. Images shown in this
guide should be considered examples and used for demonstration purposes only.
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 sav
ed
or printed for your reference. You can also visit owners.acura.com to view the
complete and most current information.
If you are the first registered owner of your vehicle, you may request a
complimentary printed copy of the Owner’s Manual, Navigation Manual, or Vehicle
Warranty within the first six months of vehicle purchase. To request a copy, visit
owners.acura.com and create or log in to your account. In Canada, please request a
copy from your Acura dealer.
American Honda Motor Company 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.

Inspecting and Changing Fuses
1.
Turn off the
vehicle, including the headlights and
all accessories.
2.
R
emove the fuse box cover.
3.
Check all
fuses inside the combined fuse case in
the engine compartment. If any fuse is blown,
use a Phillips-head screwdriver to remove the
screw and replace the fuse with a new one.
4.
Inspect
the small fuses in the engine
compartment and the vehicle interior. If there is
a burned out fuse, remove it with the fuse puller
and replace it with a new one.
Replacing a fuse with one that has a higher rating greatly increases the chances
of damaging the electrical system.

Testing of Readiness Codes
Your vehicle has readiness codes as part of the onboard self diagnostic system.
Some States use these codes for testing to verify whether your vehicle’s emissions
components are working properly. The codes may not be read if you go through the
emissions testing just after the battery has gone dead or been disconnected.
To check if they are set, turn the vehicle on without starting the engine. The
malfunction indicator lamp will come on for several seconds. If it goes off, the
readiness codes are set. If it blinks five times, the readiness codes are not set.
If you are required to have your vehicle emissions tested before the readiness codes
are set, prepare the vehicle for retesting by doing the following:
1.
Fill the
gas tank to approximately 3/4 full.
2.
P
ark the vehicle and leave the engine off for 6 hours or more.
3.
Mak
e sure the ambient temperature is between 40°F and 95°F (4°C and 35°C).
4.
Start
the engine without touching the accelerator pedal, and let it idle for 20
seconds.
5.
K
eep the vehicle in Park. Increase the engine speed to 2,000 rpm, and hold it
there for about 3 minutes.
6.
Let
the engine idle with your foot off the accelerator for 20 seconds.
7.
Select a nearb
y, lightly traveled major highway where you can maintain a speed
of 50 to 60 mph (80 to 97 km/h) for at least 20 minutes. Drive on the highway
with the vehicle in Drive. Do not use cruise control. When traffic allows, drive
for 90 seconds without using the accelerator pedal. (Vehicle speed may vary
slightly; this is OK.) If you cannot do this for a continuous 90 seconds because of
traffic conditions, drive for at least 30 seconds, then repeat two more times (for
a total of 90 seconds).
8.
Driv
e in city or suburban traffic for at least 10 minutes. When traffic conditions
allow, let the vehicle coast for several seconds without using the accelerator
pedal or the brake pedal.
9.
P
ark the vehicle and leave the engine off for 30 minutes.
The readiness codes are erased when the battery is disconnected, and set again
only after several days of driving under a variety of conditions.
If an emissions testing facility determines that the readiness codes are not set, you
may be requested to return at a later date to complete the test, or see your dealer.SPECIFICATIONS
