Driving
If there is a strong impact with something under the vehicle, stop in a safe location.
Check the underside of the vehicle for da mage or any fluid leaks, and contact an
authorized Hond a Clarity Fuel Cell dealer.
Transmission
As with a conventional gasoline-powered vehicle with an automatic transmission,
this vehicle will creep.
Keep the brake pedal firmly depressed when stopped.
■Other Precautions
■Creeping
1Precautions While Driving
Do not press the
(N button, as you will lose
regenerative braking (and ac celeration) performance.
Avoid hard braking for the first 200 miles (300 km).
You should also follow this when the brake pads are
replaced.

uuBraking uBrake System
428
Driving
Your vehicle is equipped with disc brakes at all four wh eels. The brake assist system
increases the stopping force when you depress the brake pedal hard in an
emergency situation. The an ti-lock brake system (ABS) helps you retain steering
control when braking very hard.

■Foot Brake1Foot Brake
Check the brakes after driving through deep water,
or if there is a buildup of road surface water. If
necessary, dry the brakes by lightly depressing the
pedal several times.
If you hear a continuous me tallic friction sound when
applying the brakes, this is caused by the brake wear
indicator rubbing on the brake rotor and indicates
that the brake pads need to be replaced. Have the
vehicle checked by an authorized Honda Clarity Fuel
Cell dealer. If you hear onl y an occasional squeak or
squeal when you initially a pply the brake pedal, this
may be normal and caus ed by high frequency
vibration of the brake pads against the rotating brake
disc.
Constantly using the brake pedal while going down a
long hill builds up heat, which reduces the brake
effectiveness.
To help reduce heat build -up in the brakes when
descending a long slope, use regenerative braking to
slow the vehicle down.
When the high voltage battery has fully recharged,
regenerative braking may not be possible.

Do not rest your foot on the brake pedal while
driving, as it will lightly apply the brakes and cause
them to lose effectiveness over time and reduce pad
life. It will also conf use drivers behind you.

Using a transmission flui d other than Honda ATF
DW-1 may adversely af fect the operation and
durability of your vehicle’ s transmission, and damage
the transmission.
Any damage caused by using a transmission fluid that
is not equivalent to Honda ATF DW-1 is not covered
by Honda’s new vehi cle limited warranty.
1Brake Fluid
NOTICE
Brake fluid marked DOT 5 is not compatible with your
vehicle’s braking system and can cause extensive
damage.
If the specified br ake fluid is not av ailable, you should
use only DOT 3 or DOT 4 fluid from a sealed
container as a temporary replacement.
Using any non-Honda brake fluid can cause corrosion
and decrease the longevity of the system. Have the
brake system flushed and re filled with Honda Heavy
Duty Brake Fluid DOT 3 as soon as possible.
If the brake fluid level is at or below the MIN mark,
have an authorized Honda Clarity Fuel Cell dealer
inspect the vehicle for leaks or worn brake pads as
soon as possible.
