uuWhen Driving uTransmission
Driving
If there is a strong impact with something  under the vehicle, stop in a safe location. 
Check the underside of the vehicle for damage or any fluid leaks, and contact an 
authorized Honda Clarity  Plug-In Hybrid dealer.
Transmission
As with a conventional gasoline-powered ve hicle with an automatic transmission, 
this vehicle will creep.
Keep the brake pedal firmly depressed when stopped.
Quickly depressing the accelerator pedal wh ile driving uphill may cause the vehicle 
to react similar to an automatic transmissio n vehicle, unexpectedly increasing vehicle 
speed. Depress the accelerator pedal carefu lly, especially on slippery roads and 
curves.
■Other Precautions
■Creeping
■Kickdown
1 Precautions While Driving
Do not press the 
(N button, as you will lose 
regenerative braking (and ac celeration) performance.
During the first 600 miles (1,000 km) of operation, 
avoid sudden acceleration or  full throttle operation so 
as to not damage the  engine or powertrain.
Avoid hard braking for the  first 200 miles (300 km).
You should also follow this  when the brake pads are 
replaced.
