Learn about preparation for driving and other features.
Before Driving
Check the following items before you begin driving.
Exterior Checks
•  Make sure there are no obstructions on the windows, door mirrors, exterior
lights, or other parts of the vehicle.
•  Remove any frost, snow, or ice.
•  Make sure the hood is securely closed.
•  Heat  from the engine and exhaust can ignite  flammable materials left under 
the hood, causing a fire. If you’ve parked your vehicle for an extended period,
inspect and remove any debris that may have collected, such as dried grass
and leaves that have fallen or have been carried in for use as a nest by a small
animal.  Also check under  the hood for leftover  flammable materials after  you 
or someone else has performed maintenance on your vehicle.
•  Make sure the tires are in good condition.
•  Make sure there are no people or objects behind or around the vehicle.
DRIVING
Interior Checks
•  Store or secure all items on board properly.
•  Do not pile items higher than the seat height.
•  Do not place anything in  the front seat  footwells. Make sure  to secure the floor 
mats.
•  If you have any animals on board, do not let them move freely in the vehicle.
•  Securely close and lock all doors and the tailgate.
•  Adjust your seating position, mirrors, and steering wheel properly.
•  Be sure items placed  on the  floor behind  the front seats cannot roll under  the 
seats.
•  Everyone in the vehicle must fasten their seat belt.
Make sure that the indicators in the instrument panel come on when you start the
vehicle, and go off soon after. If the doors are frozen shut, use warm water around the door edges to melt any
ice. Do not try to force them open, as this can damage the rubber trim around
the doors. When done, wipe dry to avoid further freezing.
NOTICE
Driving Guidelines for Your Utility Vehicle
Utility vehicles have a significantly higher rollover rate than other types of
vehicles. To prevent rollovers or loss of control:
•  Take corners at slower speeds than you would with a passenger vehicle.
•  Avoid sharp turns and abrupt maneuvers whenever possible.
•  Do not modify your vehicle in any way that raises its center of gravity.
•  Never carry more than 165 lbs (75 kg) of cargo on the roof rack (Acura
accessory).
In addition:
•  During the first 600 miles (1,000 km) of operation, avoid sudden acceleration
or full throttle operation so as not to 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.
Improperly operating this vehicle on or off pavement can cause a crash or
rollover in which you and your passengers can be seriously injured or killed.
Follow all instructions and guidelines in this guide.
Keep your speed low, and don’t drive faster than conditions permit.
WARNING
Improper accessories or modifications can affect your vehicle’s handling,
stability, and performance, and cause a crash in which you can be seriously
hurt or killed.
Follow all instructions in the vehicle owner’s manual regarding accessories
and modifications.
WARNING
AWD (All-Wheel Drive) with Intelligent Control System*
When the AWD system senses a loss of front wheel traction, it automatically
transfers some power to the rear wheels. This allows you to utilize all available
traction and may increase mobility.
You still need to exercise the same care when accelerating, steering, and braking
that you would in a two-wheel drive vehicle.
If you excessively spin all four wheels and overheat the system, only the front
wheels receive power. Stop until the system cools down.
Do not continuously spin the front tires of your vehicle. Continuously spinning
the front tires can cause transmission or rear differential damage.

•  Handle fuel only outdoors.
•  Wipe up spills immediately.
WARNING
Pull
Cap
Holder
We recommend quality gasoline containing detergent additives that help
prevent fuel system and engine deposits. In addition, in order to maintain good
performance, fuel economy, and emissions control, we strongly recommend
the use of gasoline that does NOT contain harmful manganese-based fuel
additives such as MMT, if such gasoline is available.
NOTICE Learn about what to do in critical or emergency situations.

Emergency Engine Stop
The ENGINE START/STOP button may be used to stop the engine due to an
emergency situation even while driving. If you must stop the engine, choose one of
the following operations:
•  Press and hold the ENGINE START/STOP button for
two seconds, OR
•  Firmly press the ENGINE START/STOP button two
times.
The steering wheel will not lock. The power mode changes to ACCESSORY, unless
the shift lever is in Park (P), in which case the power mode changes to VEHICLE OFF.
Because turning off the engine also disables the power assist the engine provides to
the steering and braking systems, it will require significantly more physical effort
and time to steer and slow the vehicle. Downshift gears and use both feet on the
brake pedal, if necessary, to slow the vehicle and stop immediately in a safe place.
Emergency Towing
Call a professional towing service if you need to tow your vehicle.
All models
Flat bed equipment: The operator loads your vehicle on the back of a truck. This is
the best way to transport your vehicle.
2WD models
Wheel lift equipment: The tow truck uses two pivoting arms that go under the front
tires and lift them off the ground. The rear tires remain on the ground. This is an
acceptable way to tow your vehicle.
Trying to lift or tow your vehicle by the bumpers will cause serious damage. The
bumpers are not designed to support the vehicle’s weight.
Improper towing such as towing behind a motorhome or other motor vehicle can
damage the transmission.
NOTICE
Do not press the button while driving unless it is absolutely necessary for the
engine to be switched off.
NOTICE
Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)
Monitors the tire pressure while you are driving.
If your vehicle’s tire pressure becomes significantly low, the low tire pressure
indicator comes on and a message appears on the multi-information display. Press
the Info button on the steering wheel to view the tire pressure monitor to see
pressure readings for each tire (see page 28).
Driving  on an extremely underinflated  tire can cause it to overheat.  An 
overheated  tire can fail. Always inflate  your tires to the specified pressure.
NOTICE
What to Do
Stop your vehicle in a safe place. Check the tire pressure and adjust the pressure
to the specified level. The specified tire pressure is on a label on the driver’s
doorjamb.
The specific tire
with low pressure is
displayed.

Interior Fuse Box
Located under the dashboard. Inspecting and Changing Fuses
1. Turn the vehicle off, including the headlights and
accessories.
2. Remove the fuse box cover.
3. Check the large fuse in the engine compartment.
If the fuse is blown, use a Phillips-head
screwdriver to remove the screws and replace
the fuse with a new one. Reinstall the screws.

compartment and the vehicle interior.
If there is a burned out fuse, remove it with the
fuse puller and replace it with a new one.

Frequently Asked Questions/Troubleshooting
Below are some frequently asked questions and troubleshooting items that you
may have about the vehicle.
Q: How  do I set the vehicle clock?
A: For vehicles without navigation, see page 49. For vehicles with navigation, the
time is automatically set using GPS signals.
Q: Why  doesn’t the vehicle start  when I press the ENGINE START/STOP button?
A: The brake pedal must be pressed to start the engine.
Q: What is  the AUTO setting  on my headlight lever? 
A: When in the AUTO position, the vehicle’s exterior lights will automatically turn
on or off depending on the ambient lighting.
Q: Only  the driver’s  door unlocks  when I shift to Park (P). Can  all doors unlock? 
A: You can change door lock or unlock settings in the multi-information display
using the Vehicle Settings menu (see page 29), or using the SETTINGS button
(see page 48).
Q: Why  won’t the driver’s  door unlock  when I grab the door handle,  even though  the 
keyless  access remote is  within range?
A: If you pull the handle too quickly, the system may not have time to confirm the
door is unlocked. Wait to hear a beep to confirm the door is unlocked. If you are
wearing gloves, the system may be slow to respond.
Q: After my battery  was disconnected  or went  dead,  the  audio system is  asking for a 
code.  Where  do I find  this?

system, and press and hold the power button until the system reactivates.
Q: Why can’t I  operate Pandora  through the audio system?
A: Audio may be streaming through Bluetooth® Audio. Make sure Pandora mode
is selected and the phone cable is properly connected to the USB port. Some
