505uu Checking and Maintaining Tires u Tire and Wheel Replacement
Maintenance
Tire and Wheel Replacement Replace your tires with radials of the sa me size, load range, speed rating, and
maximum cold tire pressure rating (as shown on the tire’s sidewall). Using tires of a
different size or construction can cause ce rtain vehicle systems such as the ABS and
Vehicle Stability Assist (VSA ® ) system to work incorrectly.
It is best to replace all four tires at the same time. If that isn’t possible, replace the
front or rear tires in pairs.
Make sure that the wheel’s specificati ons match those of the original wheels. 1 Tire and Wheel Replacement
3
WARNING Installing improper tires on your vehicle can
affect handling and stability. This can cause
a crash in which you can be seriously hurt or
killed.
Always use the size and type of tires
recommended in this owner’s manual.18 CLARITY PHEV CSS-31TRW6000.book 505 ページ ２０１７年８月３１日　木曜日　午後２時４９分

538 uu Power System Won’t Start u Emergency Power System Off
Handling the Unexpected Emergency Power System Off The POWER button may be used to turn the po wer system off due to an emergency
situation even while dr iving. If you must turn the powe r system off, do either of the
following operations:
• Press and hold the POWER button for about two seconds.
• Firmly press the POWER button three times.
The steering wheel will not lock. However, because turning off the power system
disables the power assist the power syst em provides to the steering and braking
systems, it will require significantly more physical effort and time to steer and slow
the vehicle. Use both feet on the brake pe dal to slow down the vehicle and stop
immediately in a safe place.
The gear position auto matically changes to ( P
after the vehicle comes to a complete
stop. Then, the power mode changes to VEHICLE OFF. 1 Emergency Power System Off
Do not press the button while driving unless it is
absolutely necessary for the power system to be
turned off.18 CLARITY PHEV CSS-31TRW6000.book 538 ページ ２０１７年８月３１日　木曜日　午後２時４９分

548 uu Indicator, Coming On/Blinking u If the Brake System Indicator (Red) Comes On or Blinks
Handling the Unexpected If the Brake System Indicator (Red) Comes On or
Blinks ■ Reasons for the indicator to come on
• The brake fluid is low.
• There is a malfunction in the brake system.
■ What to do when the indicator comes on while driving
Depress the brake pedal lightly to check pedal pressure.
• If normal, check the brake fluid level the next time you stop.
• If abnormal, take immediate action. If necessary, slow the vehicle
using the deceleration paddle selector.
■ Reason for the indicator to blink
• There is a problem with the electric parking brake system.
■ What to do when the indicator blinks
Avoid using the parking brake and ha ve your vehicle checked by an
authorized Honda Clarity Plug-I n Hybrid dealer immediately. 1 If the Brake System Indicator (Red) Comes On or Blinks
Have your vehicle re paired immediately.
It is dangerous to drive with low brake fluid. If there
is no resistance from the brake pedal, stop
immediately in a safe plac e. If necessary, downshift
the gears.
If the brake system indicator and ABS indicator come
on simultaneously, the elec tronic brake distribution
system is not working. Th is can result in vehicle
instability under sudden braking.
Have your vehicle inspected by an authorized Honda
Clarity Plug-In Hybrid dealer immediately.
If the brake system indicator (red) blinks at the same
time when the brake system indicator (amber) comes
on, the parking br ake may not work.
Avoid using the parking brak e and have your vehicle
checked by an authorized Honda Clarity Plug-In
Hybrid dealer immediately.
