Frequently Asked Questions/Troubleshooting
Below are some frequently asked questions and troubleshooting items that\
you may
have about the vehicle.
Q:
How do I set the vehicle clock?
A:
See page 55. For vehicles with navigation, the time is automatically set\
using
GPS signals.
Q:
Why doesn’t the vehicle start when I press the ENGINE START/STOP button?
A:
The brake pedal must be pressed to start the engine.
Q:
What is the AUTO setting on my headlight lever?
A:
When in the AUTO position, the vehicle’s exterior lights will automatically turn
on or off depending on the ambient lighting.
Q:
Why won’t the driver’s door unlock when I grab the door handle, even though
the keyless access remote* is within range?
A:
If you pull the handle too quickly, the system may not have time to confirm the
door is unlocked. Wait to hear a beep to confirm the door is unlocked. If you are
wearing gloves, the system may be slow to respond.
Q:
After my battery was disconnected or went dead, the audio system is aski\
ng for a
code. Where do I find this?
A:
In most cases, you do not need to enter a code. Turn on the vehicle, then press
and hold the audio power button until the system reactivates.
Q:
Why can’t I operate Pandora* through the audio system?
A:
Audio may be streaming through Bluetooth Audio. Make sure Pandora mode
is selected and the phone cable is properly connected to the USB adapter\
.
Some phones may prompt you to “Allow” a connection.
Q:
Is my phone compatible with Bluetooth features? How do I pair my phone?
A:
To check phone compatibility, visit handsfreelink.honda.com (U.S.) or www.
handsfreelink.ca (Canada). Once there, select your vehicle and phone, \
then click the
image of your phone to check feature compatibility. For pairing instructions,
see page 80 in this book.
Q:
Every time I press the Talk button, the system gives me voice prompts. Can I turn
these off?
A:
You can press the Talk button a second time to interrupt the guidance. Or, you can
turn guidance on or off permanently via System settings. See page 54 . Q:
Why can’t I select an item using the selector knob or touchscreen?
A:
To prevent driver distraction, certain items are limited or inoperable wh\
ile the vehicle
is moving. Use voice commands or pull over to select the items.
Q: Where can I find the vehicle identification number (VIN)?
A: Check the label on the driver’
s doorjamb (the upright piece to which the door latches).
