uuWhen Driving uTire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)
Continued
Driving
Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)
Instead of directly measuring the pressure 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 cause 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 pressure in all four tires.
2 Checking Tires P. 503
Make sure:
•The vehicle is at a complete stop.
• The gear position is in
(P.
• The power mode is in ON.
1Tire 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. 503
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.

• The calibration pr ocess finishes

•The calibration process requires approximately 30
minutes of cumulative dr iving at speeds between
30-65 mph (48-105 km/h).
•During this period, if the power system is turned on
and the vehicle is not moved within 45 seconds, you
may notice the low tire pressure/TPMS indicator
comes on briefly. This is normal and indicates that
the calibration process is not yet complete.
If tire chains are installed, remove them before
calibrating the TPMS.
If the low tire pressure/TPMS indicator comes on even
when the properly inflated specified regular tires are
installed, have your vehicl e checked by an authorized
Honda Clarity Plug-In Hybrid dealer.
We recommend that the tires be replaced with the
same brand, model, and size as the originals. Ask an
authorized Honda Clarity Pl ug-In Hybrid dealer for
details.

Charge the High Voltage battery using a Level 1 or 2
charger
There are two ways to charge the High Volt age battery; by using the Level 1 120 volt
(15 amp) charger supplied with the vehicle plugged into a standard three-prong wall
outlet, or by using a professionally inst alled Level 2 240 volt (32 amp) charger.
*1:
Charging time varies depending on conditions, such as the remaining battery level and the ambient
temperature.
The suggested full charging time in this table indicates the hours it may likely take
for the High Voltage batte ry to be fully charged.

Improper usage and handling of the 120
volt charger can cause a fire, seriously
injuring you or others.
•Always insert the plug fully into a
properly rated and grounded the wall
outlet.
• Plug the charging cable directly to the
wall outlet. Do not use extension cords or
multi-plug adapters.
• Prevent the vehicle charging connector
