Your safety—and the safety of others—is very important and operatin\
g this vehicle
safely is an important responsibility. While we strive to help you make informed 
decisions about safety, it is not practical or possible to warn you about all the 
hazards associated with operating or maintaining your vehicle. Therefore, you must 
use your own good judgment.
Important Safety Information
This guide explains many of your vehicle’s safety features and how to use them.
Please read this information carefully. Following the instructions below will also help 
to keep you and your passengers safe.
Important Safety Precautions •

•  Secure all children in the proper restraint system.
• 
Be aware of airbag hazards.
• Don’t drink and drive.
•  Pay appropriate attention to the task of driving safely.
•  Control your speed.
•  Keep your vehicle in safe condition.
Engaging in cell phone conversation or other activities that keep you from paying 
close attention to the road, other vehicles, and pedestrians could lead \
to a crash.

SAFETYSAFETY
Carbon Monoxide Gas
The engine exhaust from this vehicle contains carbon monoxide, a colorless, 
odorless, and highly toxic gas. As long as you properly maintain your ve\
hicle and
follow the instructions set forth below, you will not accumulate dangerous levels 
of carbon monoxide gas in the vehicle interior.
Have the exhaust system inspected for leaks whenever:
•  The exhaust system is making an unusual noise.
• 
The exhaust system may have been damaged.
•  The vehicle is raised for an oil change.
When you operate a vehicle with the tailgate open, airflow can pull ex\
haust gas
into the interior and create a hazardous condition. If you must drive with the 
tailgate open, open all the windows and set the climate control system a\
s shown
below.
1. Select the fresh air mode.
2. Select the mode.
3. Set the fan speed to high.
4. Set the temperature control to a comfortable setting.
Adjust the climate control system in the same manner if you sit in your \
parked
vehicle with the engine running.
Carbon monoxide gas is toxic. Breathing it can cause unconsciousness and 
even kill you.
Avoid
 any enclosed areas or activities that expose you to carbon monoxide.
WARNING
An enclosed area such as a garage can quickly fill up with carbon monoxide gas. 
Do not run the engine with the garage door closed. Even when the garage door is 
open, drive out of the garage immediately after starting the engine.
Seat Belts
A seat belt is your best protection in all types of collisions. Airbags are designed to 
supplement seat belts, not replace them. So even though your vehicle is equipped 
with airbags, make sure you and your passengers always wear your seat belts and 
wear them properly.
Lap/Shoulder Seat Belts
All seven or eight seating positions are equipped with lap/shoulder seat belts with 
emergency locking retractors. In normal driving, the retractor lets you move freely 
while keeping some tension on the belt. During a collision or sudden stop, the 
retractor locks to restrain your body. The second- and third-row passenger’s seat 
belts also have a lockable retractor for use with child seats.
The front seats are equipped with automatic seat belt tensioners to enhance 
safety. The tensioners automatically tighten the front seat belts during a moderate 
to severe frontal collision, sometimes even if the collision is not seve\
re enough to
inflate the front airbags.
Proper Use of Seat Belts Follow these guidelines for proper use:
• 
All occupants should sit upright, well back in the seat, and remain in that 
position for the duration of the trip. Slouching and leaning reduces the\

effectiveness of the belt and can increase the chance of serious injury in a 
crash.
• 
Never place the shoulder part of a lap/shoulder seat belt under your arm or 
behind your back. This could cause very serious injuries in a crash.
• Two people should never use the same seat belt. If they do, they could be very 
seriously injured in a crash.
• 
Do not put any accessories on the seat belts. Devices intended to improve 
comfort or reposition the shoulder part of a seat belt can reduce the protective 
capability and increase the chance of serious injury in a crash.
• Regularly check the condition of your seat belts. Check for frays, cuts, burns, 
and wear, and that the latches work smoothly and the belts retract easily.
• No one should sit in a seat with an inoperative seat belt or one that does not 
appear to be working correctly. Using a seat belt that is not working properly 
may not protect the occupant in a crash. Have a dealer check the belt as soon 
as possible.
Not wearing a seat belt properly increases the chance of a serious injury or 
death in a crash, even though your vehicle has airbags.
Be
 sure you and your passengers always wear seat belts and wear them 
properly.

Seat Belt with Detachable Anchor
The seat belt for the second-row and third-row center seat is located in the 
ceiling.
1. Pull out the seat belt’s small latch plate and 
the latch plate from each holding slot in the
ceiling.
2. Line up the triangle marks on the small latch plate
and anchor buckle. Make sure the seat belt is not 
twisted. Attach the belt to the anchor buckle.
3. Insert the latch plate into the buckle. Properly 
fasten the seat belt the same way you fasten 
the lap/shoulder seat belt.
 To unlatch the detachable anchor, insert a key 
into the slot on the side of the anchor buckle.
For the second-row center seat, pivot the
anchor buckle forward before unlatching the 
anchor.
Using the seat belt with the detachable anchor unlatched increases the 
chance of serious injury or death in a crash.
Before
 using the seat belt, make sure the detachable anchor is correctly 
latched.
WARNING

Buckle
Airbags
Your vehicle is equipped with three types of airbags: front airbags, side airbags, and 
side curtain airbags.
Front Airbags (SRS)
The front SRS airbags inflate in a moderate-to-severe frontal collision to help 
protect the head and chest of the driver and/or front passenger. They are housed 
in the center of the steering wheel for the driver, and in the dashboard for the front 
passenger. Both airbags are marked SRS AIRBAG.
SRS (Supplemental Restraint System) indicates that the airbags are designed to 
supplement seat belts, not replace them. Seat belts are the occupant’s primary 
restraint system.
Advanced Airbags
Your front airbags have advanced features to help reduce the likelihood of airbag-
related injuries to smaller occupants.
The driver’s advanced front airbag system includes 
a seat position sensor. If the seat is too far forward, 
the airbag inflates with less force, regardless of the 
severity of the impact.
If there is a problem with the driver’s seat position 
sensor, the SRS indicator will come on and the
airbag will inflate with full (normal) force, regardless 
of the driver’s seating position.
The passenger’s advanced front airbag system 
has weight sensors. Although Honda recommends
against carrying an infant or small child in front, if
the sensors detect the weight of a child (up to 65 lbs 
or 29 kg), the system will automatically turn off the
passenger’s front airbag.
For both advanced front airbags to work properly: 
• Do not spill any liquid on or under the seats.
• Do not put any object under the passenger’s seat.
• Make sure any objects are positioned properly on the floor. Improperly 
positioned objects can interfere with the advanced airbag sensors.
• All occupants should sit upright and wear their seat belts properly.
• Do not place any cover over any part of the passenger side dashboard.

Passenger Airbag Off Indicator
The indicator comes on to alert you that the front
passenger’s front airbag has been turned off. This 
occurs when the front passenger’s weight sensors
detect 65 lbs (29 kg) or less, the weight of an infant 
or small child, on the seat.
U.S.
Canad a
Infants and small children should always ride properly restrained in a back seat.
Objects placed on the seat can also cause the indicator to come on.
If the front passenger‘s seat is empty, the passenger’s front airbag will not deploy 
and the indicator will not come on.
If the indicator comes on with no occupant or objects in the front passenger’s 
seat, something may be interfering with the weight sensors, such as: 
• An object hanging on the seat or in the seat-back pocket.
• A child seat or other object pressing against the rear of the seat-back.
• A rear passenger pushing or pulling on the back of the front passenger’s seat.
• The front seat or seat-back is forced against an object on the seat or floor 
behind it.
• An object placed under the front passenger’s seat.
If none of these conditions exist, have your vehicle checked by a dealer as soon 
as possible.
The passenger airbag off indicator may go on and off repeatedly if the total weight 
on the seat is near the airbag cutoff threshold.
1 Two SRS (Supplemental Restraint
System) front airbags. The driver’s 
airbag is stored in the center 
of the steering wheel; the front
passenger’s airbag is stored in the 
dashboard. Both are marked SRS
AIRBAG.
2  Two side airbags, one for the driver 
and one for the front passenger.
The airbags are stored in the outer 
edges of the seat-backs. Both are 
marked SIDE AIRBAG.
3  Two side curtain airbags, one 
for each side of the vehicle. The
airbags are stored in the ceiling, 
above the side windows. The front 
and rear pillars are marked SIDE
CURTAIN AIRBAG.
4 An electronic control unit that continually monitors and can
record information about the 
sensors, the airbag activators, the 
seat belt tensioners, and driver and 
front passenger seat belt use when 
the vehicle is on.
5  Automatic front seat belt tensioners. 
The driver’s and front passenger’s
seat belts incorporate sensors that 
detect whether or not they are
fastened.
6  A driver’s seat position sensor. If the 
seat is too far forward, the airbag 
will inflate with less force.
7 Weight sensors in the front passenger’s seat. The front
passenger’s airbag will be turned off 
if the weight on the seat is 65 lbs (29 
kg) or less (the weight of an infant or
small child).

Airbag Care
You do not need to, and should not, perform any maintenance on or replace\
any
airbag system components yourself. However, you should have your vehicle 
inspected by a dealer in the following situations:
When the airbags have deployed
If an airbag has inflated, the control unit and other related parts must be replaced. 
Similarly, once an automatic seat belt tensioner has been activated, it must be 
replaced.
When the vehicle has been in a moderate-to-severe collision
Even if the airbags did not inflate, have your dealer inspect the following: the 
driver’s seat position sensor, weight sensors in the passenger’s seat, front seat
belt tensioners, and each seat belt that was worn during the crash.
Do not remove or modify a front seat without first consulting a dealer
This would likely disable the driver’s seat position sensor or the weight sensors 
in the passenger’s seat. If it is necessary to remove or modify a front seat to 
accommodate a person with disabilities, contact a Honda dealer. For U.S. 
vehicles, call Honda Automobile Customer Service at (800) 999-1009. For Canadian 
vehicles, call Honda Canada Customer Relations at (888) 946-6329.
Child Safety
Each year, many children are injured or killed in vehicle crashes because they are 
either unrestrained or not properly restrained. In fact, vehicle collisions are the 
number one cause of death of children ages 12 and under.
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration and Transport Canada
recommend that all children ages 12 and under be properly restrained in a rear seat. 
Some states or provinces/territories have laws restricting where children may ride. 
To reduce the number of child deaths and injuries, every state, Canadian province 
and territory requires that infants and children be properly restrained when they ride 
in a vehicle.
Protecting Child Passengers• 
An inflating front or side airbag can injure or kill a child sitting in the front seat.
• A child in the front seat is more likely to interfere with the driver’s ability to 
safely control the vehicle.
• 
Statistics show that children of all sizes and ages are safer when they are 
properly restrained in a rear seat.
• 
Any child who is too small to wear a seat belt correctly must be restrained in an 
approved child seat that is properly secured to the vehicle using either\
the lap
belt portion of the lap/shoulder belt or the lower anchors of the LATCH system.
• Never hold a child on your lap because it is impossible to protect them in the 
event of a collision.
• 
Never put a seat belt over yourself and a child. During a crash, the belt would 
likely press deep into the child and cause serious or fatal injuries.
• 
Never let two children use the same seat belt. Both children could be very 
seriously injured in a crash.
• 
Do not allow children to operate the doors, windows, or seat adjustments.
• Do not leave children in the vehicle unattended, especially in hot weather when 
the inside of the vehicle can get hot enough to kill them. They could al\
so activate
vehicle controls, causing it to move unexpectedly.
Children who are unrestrained or improperly restrained can be seriously 
injured or killed in a crash.
Any
 child too small for a seat belt should be properly restrained in a child 
seat. A larger child should be properly restrained with a seat belt, using a 
booster seat if necessary.
WARNING

16    || 17
SAFETYSAFETY
Protecting Infants
An infant must be properly restrained in a rear-facing, reclining child seat until the 
infant reaches the seat maker’s weight or height limit for the seat, and the infant
is at least one year old. Many experts recommend use of a rear-facing seat for
a child up to two years old if the child’s height and weight are appropriate for a
rear-facing seat.
Child seats must be placed and secured in a rear 
seating position. Rear-facing child seats should
never be installed in a forward-facing position.
When properly installed, a rear-facing child seat may prevent the driver or a front
passenger from moving their seat all the way back, or from locking their seat-back 
in the desired position. If this occurs, we recommend that you install the child 
seat directly behind the front passenger’s seat, move the seat as far forward as 
needed, and leave it unoccupied. Or, you may wish to get a smaller rear-facing
child seat.
Placing a rear-facing child seat in the front seat can result in serious injury or
death during a crash.
Always place a rear-facing child seat in the rear seat, not the front.
WARNING
Allowing a child to play with a seat belt or wrap one around their neck can 
result in serious injury or death.
Instruct children not to play with any seat belt and make sure any unused seat 
belt a child can reach is buckled, fully retracted, and locked.
WARNING Protecting Smaller Children
If a child is at least one year old and within the weight range indicated by the child 
seat manufacturer, the child should be properly restrained in a firmly secured 
forward-facing child seat.
We strongly recommend placing a forward-facing
child seat in a rear seating position.
Placing a forward-facing child seat in the front seat
can be hazardous, even with advanced front airbags 
that automatically turn the passenger’s front airbag 
off. A rear seat is the safest place for a child.
Placing a forward-facing child seat in the front seat can result in seri\
ous
injury
 or death if the front airbag inflates.
If
 you must place a forward-facing child seat in front, move the vehicle seat 
as far back as possible, and properly restrain the child.
WARNING

Most child seats are LATCH-compatible (Lower Anchors and Tethers for CHildren). 
Some have a rigid-type connector, while others have a flexible-type connector. 
Both are equally easy to use. Some existing and previously owned child seats can 
only be installed using the seat belt. Whichever type you choose, follow the child 
seat manufacturer’s use and care instructions as well as the instructions in this
manual. Proper installation is key to maximizing your child’s safety.
In seating positions and vehicles not equipped with LATCH, a LATCH-compatible 
child seat can be installed using the seat belt and a top tether for added security. 
This is because all child seats are required to be designed so that they can be 
secured with a lap belt or the lap part of a lap/shoulder belt. In addition, the 
child seat manufacturer may advise that a seat belt be used to attach a LATCH-
compatible seat once a child reaches a specified weight. Please read the child 
seat owner’s manual for proper installation instructions.
Important considerations when selecting a child seat
Make sure the child seat meets the following three requirements:
• The child seat is the correct type and size for the child.
•  The child seat is the correct type for the seating position.
•  The child seat is compliant with Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard 213 or
Canadian Motor Vehicle Safety Standard 213.

Installing a LATCH-Compatible Child Seat
A LATCH-compatible child seat can be installed in each of the second- and third-
row seats. A child seat is attached to the lower anchors with either the\
rigid or
flexible type of connectors.
1. Locate the lower anchors under the marks.
2. Place the child seat on the vehicle seat, then
attach the child seat to the lower anchors
according to the instructions that came with the
child seat. Make sure that the lower anchors
are not obstructed by the seat belt or any other 
object.
To install a child seat in the second-row center
seat, remove the covers on each lower end of the
seat-back by pulling on the handles.
3. Raise the head restraint to its uppermost position,
then route the tether strap between the head 
restraint legs, and secure the tether strap hook
onto the anchor.
4. Tighten the tether strap according to the seat
maker’s instructions.
5. Make sure the child seat is firmly secured by 
rocking it forward and back and side to side; little 
movement should be felt.
6. Make sure any unused seat belt that a child 
can reach is buckled, the lockable retractor 
is activated, and the belt is fully retracted and 
locked.

Installing a Child Seat with a Lap/Shoulder Seat Belt
1. Place the child seat on the vehicle seat.
2. Route the seat belt through the child seat 
according to the seat maker’s instructions, and
insert the latch plate into the buckle. Insert the 
latch plate fully until it clicks.
3. Slowly pull the shoulder part of the belt all the 
way out until it stops. This activates the lockable 
retractor.
4. Let the seat belt completely wind up into the 
retractor, then try to pull it out to make sure the
retractor is locked. If you are able to pull the 
shoulder belt out, the lockable retractor is not 
activated. Pull the seat belt all the way out, and 
repeat steps 3 – 4.
5. Grab the shoulder part of the seat belt near the 
buckle, and pull up to remove any slack from 
the lap part of the belt. When doing this, place 
your weight on the child seat and push it into the
vehicle seat.
6. Make sure the child seat is firmly secured by 
rocking it forward and back and side to side; little 
movement should be felt.
7. Make sure any unused seat belt that a child 
can reach is buckled, the lockable retractor 
is activated, and the belt is fully retracted and 
locked.
 To deactivate a lockable retractor, release the buckle and allow the seat belt to 
wind up all the way.

SAFETYSAFETY
Adding Security with a Tether
A tether anchorage point is provided behind each rear seating position. 
Regardless of whether it is installed with LATCH or a seat belt, a child seat that 
comes with a tether should use the tether for additional security.
1. Locate the appropriate tether anchorage point
and lift the cover.
2. Raise the head restraint to its uppermost position,
then route the tether strap through the head
restraint legs. Make sure the strap is not twisted.
3. Secure the tether strap hook onto the anchor.
4. Tighten the tether strap according to the seat
maker’s instructions.

Protecting Larger Children
When a child is too big for a child seat, secure the child in a rear seat using the 
lap/shoulder seat belt.
Have the child sit upright and all the way back, then ensure the following:
• The child’s knees bend comfortably over the edge 
of the seat.
• 
The shoulder belt crosses between the child’s 
neck and arm.
• 
The lap part of the seat belt is as low as possible, 
touching the child’s thighs.
•  The child can stay seated for the whole trip.
If a lap/shoulder belt cannot be used properly, position the child in a booster seat 
in a rear seating position. For the child’s safety, check that the child meets the
booster seat manufacturer’s recommendations.
Some U.S. states and Canadian provinces/territories require children to use a 
booster seat until they reach a given age or weight (e.g., 6 years or 60 lbs). Be sure 
to check current laws in the state or province/territory where you intend to drive.
Allowing a child age 12 or under to sit in the front can result in injur\
y or death
if the passenger’s front airbag inflates.
If a larger child must ride in front, move the vehicle seat as far to the rear as 
possible, then have the child sit up properly and wear the seat belt properly, 
using a booster seat if needed.
