DISCLOSURES
Event Data RecordersThis 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 assist in unde\
rs

tanding
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, typicall\
y
30 seconds or less. The EDR in this vehicle is designed to record such d\
ata as:
•
How various systems in your vehicle were operating;
•
Whether or not the driver and passenger safety belts were buckled/fasten\
ed;
•
How far (if at all) the driver was depressing the accelerator and/or b\
rake
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. N
oTe: eDr data are recorded by your vehicle
only if a non-trivial crash situation occurs; no data are recorded by th\
e
eDr under
normal driving conditions and no personal data (e.g., name, gender, age, and
crash location) are recorded. However

, other parties, such as law enforcement,
could combine the
eDr data with the type of personally identifying data routinely
acquired during a crash investigation.
To read data recorded by an
eDr, 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 read\
the
information if they have access to the vehicle or the
eDr.
The data belong to the vehicle owner and may not be accessed by anyone e\
lse
except as legally required or with the permission of the vehicle owner.
Service Diagnostic Recorders This vehicle is equipped with service-related devices that record inform\
ation
about powertrain performance. The data can be used to verify emissions l\
aw
requirements and/or help technicians diagnose and solve service problems. It may
also be combined with data from other sources for research purposes, but\

it remains confidential.

SPORT HYBRID I-MMD
This Accord with SPorT HYBrID i-MMD uses both an electric motor and a gasoline
engine. A High
voltage battery powers the electric motor. The High voltage battery
is recharged by an engine-driven generator and regenerative braking.
i-MMD automatically manages the engine and motor, switching between them or
blending them as appropriate. Under certain circumstances, you can selec\
t
ev
mode (driving on electricity only) by pressing the
ev button (see page 104).
In addition to the High
voltage battery, this vehicle includes a standard 12-volt
battery to power the airbags, the interior and exterior lights, and othe\
r 12-volt systems.
Y

our driving style heavily impacts fuel efficiency and driving range. S\
pirited
acceleration, high-speed driving, or heavy climate-control use can quick\
ly reduce
the High
voltage battery’s charge. That can trigger the system to switch to the
gasoline-powered engine.
