Standard data rates apply. Available on vehicles with navigation.
S A F E T Y R E M I N D E R
Your vehicle is equipped with airbags. Airbags do not replace seat belts; they add to
the protection offered by seat belts. Airbags can help protect you in some types of
collisions, but they do not provide protection in all collisions.
Always make sure you and your passenger wear seat belts.
Never carry an infant in a rearfacing child seat in this vehicle; a deploying airbag
could seriously injure or kill them.
Further, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) and Transport
Canada both recommend that all children age 12 and under be properly restrained in
a back seat. Since this vehicle does not have a back seat, we strongly recommend that
you do not carry a child aged 12 or under in this vehicle.
Honda further recommends that you do not carry any child who is not large enough
or mature enough to ride in the front passenger seat for the following reasons:
• An inflating front or side airbag can injure or kill a child sitting in the front passenger seat.
• A child in the passenger seat is more likely to interfere with the driver’s ability to safely control the vehicle.
4. Press (:) or (+) to change tracks.
Notes\f
• If Pandora is not selected from your phone, iPod music is played.
• Press the Home button on your iPhone to switch from Pandora to iPod. To play Pandora
again, you must reopen the app from your phone.
• If you cannot operate Pandora through the audio system, it may be streaming through Bluetooth
®Audio. Make sure Pandora mode on your audio system is selected. If Pandora still
does not operate, you may have to reconnect the cable.
• A popup may appear on your phone requesting you to allow access for Pandora to be launched.
• Connect your phone only when your vehicle is stopped.
3. From the audio screen, select items such as Station List, Like\fDislike, and
Pause\fResume.*
