Reporting Safety Defects  
In the U.S.  
If you believe that your vehicle has a defect which could cause a crash or could cause injury or death, you  
should immediately inform the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) in addition to  
notifying American Honda Motor Co., Inc.  
If NHTSA receives similar complaints, it may open an investigation, and if it finds that a safety defect exists  
in a group of vehicles, it may order a recall and remedy campaign. However, NHTSA cannot become involved  
in individual problems between you, your dealer, or American Honda Motor Co., Inc.  
To contact NHTSA, you may call the Vehicle Safety Hotline toll-free at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY: 1-800-424-  
9153); go to http://www.safercar.gov; or write to: Administrator, NHTSA, 1200 New Jersey Avenue, SE.,  
Washington, DC 20590. You can also obtain other information about motor vehicle safety from http://  
In Canada  
If you believe that your vehicle has a defect which could cause a crash or could cause injury or death, you  
should immediately inform Honda Canada Inc. and you may also inform Transport Canada.  
If Transport Canada receives similar complaints, it may open an investigation, and if it finds that a safety  
defect exists in a group of vehicles, it may lead to a recall and remedy campaign. However, Transport Canada  
cannot become involved in individual problems between you, your dealer, or Honda Canada Inc.  
To contact Transport Canada's Defect Investigations and Recalls Division, you may call 1-800-333-0510. For

Emissions Testing  
Testing of Readiness Codes  
Your vehicle has readiness code as part of the onboard self diagnostic system.  
Some states use these codes for testing to verify whether your vehicle's emissions  
components are working properly.  
1Testing of Readiness Codes  
The readiness codes are erased when the battery is  
disconnected, and set again only after several days of  
driving under a variety of conditions.  
The codes may not be read properly if testing is performed just after the battery has  
gone dead or been disconnected.  
If a testing facility determines that the readiness  
codes are not set, you may be requested to return at  
a later date to complete the test.  
To check if they are set, set the power mode to ON, without starting the engine. The  
malfunction indicator lamp will come on for several seconds. If it then goes off, the  
readiness codes are set. If it blinks five times, the readiness codes are not set.  
If the testing facility determines the readiness codes  
are still not set, see a dealer.  
If you are required to have your vehicle tested before the readiness codes are ready,  
prepare the vehicle for retesting by doing the following:  
1.5 L engine models  
1. Fill the gas tank to approximately 3/4 full.  
2. Park the vehicle and leave the engine off for 6 hours or more.  
3. Make sure the ambient temperature is between 40°F and 95°F (4°C and 35°C).  
4. Start the engine without touching the accelerator pedal, and let it idle for  
20 seconds.  
5. Keep the vehicle in (P (continuously variable transmission) or (N (manual  
transmission). Increase the engine speed to 2,000 rpm, and hold it there for  
about 3 minutes.  
6. Let the engine idle with your foot off the accelerator for 20 seconds.  
818  
uuEmissions TestinguTesting of Readiness Codes  
7. Select a nearby, lightly traveled major highway where you can maintain a speed  
of 50 to 60 mph (80 to 97 km/h) for at least 20 minutes. Drive on the highway  
in (D (continuously variable transmission) or 5th (manual). Do not use cruise  
control. When traffic allows, drive for 90 seconds without moving the  
accelerator pedal. (Vehicle speed may vary slightly; this is okay.) If you cannot do  
this for a continuous 90 seconds because of traffic conditions, drive for at least  
30 seconds, then repeat it two more times (for a total of 90 seconds).  
8. Drive in city or suburban traffic for at least 10 minutes. When traffic conditions  
allow, let the vehicle coast for several seconds without using the accelerator  
pedal or the brake pedal.  
9. Park the vehicle and leave the engine off for 30 minutes.  
2.0 L engine models  
1. Fill the gas tank to approximately 3/4 full.  
2. Park the vehicle and leave the engine off for 6 hours or more.  
3. Make sure the ambient temperature is between 40°F and 95°F (4°C and 35°C).  
4. Start the engine without touching the accelerator pedal, and let it idle for  
20 seconds.  
5. Keep the vehicle in (P (continuously variable transmission) or (N (manual  
transmission). Increase the engine speed to 2,000 rpm, and hold it there for  
about 3 minutes.  
6. Let the engine idle with your foot off the accelerator for 20 seconds.  
7. Drive in city or suburban traffic for at least 10 minutes. When traffic conditions  
allow, let the vehicle coast for several seconds without using the accelerator  
pedal or the brake pedal.

vehicle is traveling in this speed range, shift to 6th gear and then accelerate and  
decelerate 5 times, each time making sure you do not exceed 60 mph (97 km/h).  
9. Park the vehicle and let the engine idle for 1 minute without using the  
accelerator pedal.  
10. Park the vehicle and leave the engine off for 30 minutes.

Warranty Coverages  
U.S. Owners  
Your new vehicle is covered by these warranties:  
New Vehicle Limited Warranty – covers your new vehicle, except for the  
emissions control systems and accessories, against defects in materials and  
workmanship.  
Emissions Control Systems Defects Warranty and Emissions Performance  
Warranty – these two warranties cover your vehicle's emissions control systems.  
Time, mileage, and coverage are conditional. Please read your warranty booklet for  
exact information.  
Seat Belt Limited Warranty – a seat belt that fails to function properly is covered  
by a limited warranty. Please read your warranty booklet for details.  
Rust Perforation Limited Warranty – all exterior body panels are covered against  
rusting from the inside out for the specified time period, regardless of mileage.  
Accessory Limited Warranty – Honda accessories are covered under this  
warranty. Time and mileage limits depend on the type of accessory and other  
factors. Please read your warranty booklet for details.  
Replacement Parts Limited Warranty – covers all Honda replacement parts  
against defects in materials and workmanship.  
Continued  
821  
uuWarranty Coveragesu  
Replacement Battery Limited Warranty – provides prorated coverage for a  
replacement battery purchased from your dealer.  
Replacement Muffler Lifetime Limited Warranty – provides coverage for as  
long as the purchaser of the muffler owns the vehicle.  
Restrictions and exclusions apply to all these warranties. Please read the Honda  
warranty information booklet that came with your vehicle for precise information on  
warranty coverages. Your vehicle's original tires are covered by their manufacturer.  
Tire warranty information is in a separate booklet.  
Statement on Warranty Coverage for Aftermarket and Recycled Parts  
The Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act, 15 U.S.C. s.2301 et seq., makes it illegal for  
motor vehicle manufacturers to void a motor vehicle warranty or deny warranty  
coverage solely because an aftermarket or recycled part has been used to repair the  
vehicle or someone other than the authorized service provider performed service on  
the vehicle. This provision does not apply to a new motor vehicle purchased solely  
for commercial or industrial use.  
Under federal law, a manufacturer may deny warranty coverage and charge for  
repairs to a vehicle if it is discovered that an aftermarket or recycled part installed on  
the vehicle is defective or was installed incorrectly and caused damage to another  
part of the vehicle otherwise covered under warranty. The Federal Trade  
Commission requires that a manufacturer demonstrate that an aftermarket or  
recycled part or service performed by a person other than an authorized service  
provider caused damage to another part of the vehicle otherwise covered under  
warranty before denying warranty coverage. Additionally, federal law allows a  
manufacturer to void a motor vehicle warranty or deny warranty coverage if the  
manufacturer provides the article or service to consumers free of charge under the  
warranty or the manufacturer has secured a waiver from the Federal Trade  
Commission.
