Always keep the radar sensor cover clean.
Never use chemical solvents or polishing powder for
cleaning the sensor cover. Clean it with water or a
mild detergent.
Do not put a sticker on the radar sensor cover or
replace the radar sensor cover.
If you need the radar sensor to be repaired, or
removed, or the radar se nsor cover is strongly
impacted, turn off the system by pressing the MAIN
button and take your vehicl e to an authorized Honda
Clarity Plug-In Hybrid dealer.
Have your vehicle checked by an authorized Honda
Clarity Plug-In Hybrid deal er if you find any unusual
behavior of the system (e.g., the warning message
appears too frequently).19 CLARITY PHEV-31TRW6100.book 408 ページ ２０１８年１０月２５日　木曜日　午後２時２９分

428 uu When Driving u Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)
Driving Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) Instead of directly measuring the pressu re in each tire, the TPMS on this vehicle
monitors and compares the rolling radius and rotational characteristics of each
wheel and tire while you are driving to determine if one or more tires are
significantly under-inflated. This will caus e the low tire pressure/TPMS indicator to
come on and a message to appear on the driver information interface.
You must start TPMS calibration every time you:
• Adjust the pressure in one or more tires.
• Rotate the tires.
• Replace one or more tires.
Before calibrating the TPMS:
• Set the cold tire pressu re in all four tires.2 Checking Tires P. 501
Make sure:
• The vehicle is at a complete stop.
• The gear position is in ( P
.
• The power mode is in ON.■ TPMS Calibration 1 Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)
The system does not monitor the tires when driving
at low speed.
Conditions such as low ambient temperature and
altitude change directly a ffect tire pressure and can
trigger the low tire pressure/TPMS indicator to come on.
Tire pressure checked and inflated in:
• Warm weather can beco me under-inflated in
colder weather.
• Cold weather can become over-inflated in warmer
weather.
The low tire pressure/TPMS indicator will not come
on as a result of over inflation.
The TPMS may not function pr operly if tire type and
size are mixed. Make sure to use the same size and
type of tire.
2 Checking and Maintaining Tires P. 501
The low tire pressure/TPMS indicator may come on
with a delay or may not come on at all when:
• You rapidly accelerate, decelerate, or turn the
steering wheel.
• You drive on snowy or slippery roads.
• Tire chains are used.
The low tire pressure/TPMS indicator may come on
under the following conditions:
• There is a heavier and uneve n load on the tires than
the condition at calibration.
• Tire chains are used.19 CLARITY PHEV-31TRW6100.book 428 ページ ２０１８年１０月２５日　木曜日　午後２時２９分
