Your car is equipped with many
features that work together to
protect you and your passengers during a crash.
Some safety features do not require any action on your part. These
include a strong steel framework
that forms a safety cage around the
passenger compartment; front and rear crush zones that are designed to
crumple and absorb energy during acrash; and a collapsible steering
column.
These safety features are designed to reduce the severity of injuries in acrash. However, you and your
passengers can't take full advantageof these safety features unless you
remain sitting in a proper position
and always wear your seat belts
properly. In fact, some safety features can contribute to injuries if
they are not used properly.

Doo r Lock s
Keeping your doors locked reduces
the chance of being thrown out of
the car during a crash. It also helps
prevent occupants from accidentally opening a door and falling out, andoutsiders from unexpectedly opening
your doors. Pre-Driv
e Safet y Checklis t
To make sure you and your passengers get the maximum
protection from your car's safety
features, check the following each time before you drive away: All adults, and children who have
outgrown child safety seats, are
wearing their seat belts and
wearing them properly (see page 16).
Any infant or small child is properly restrained in a child seat
in the back seat (see page 21). Front seat occupants are sitting
upright and as far back as possible
from the steering wheel and dashboard (see page 13). Seat-backs are upright (see page
14). Head restraints are properly
adjusted (see page 15).
Both doors are closed and locked
(see page 12 ).
All cargo is properly stored or secured (see page 135).
The rest of this section gives more detailed information about how you
can maximize your safety.
Remember, however, that no safety system can prevent all injuries or
deaths that can occur in severe
crashes, even when seat belts are
properly worn and the airbags deploy.

Protectin
g Adult s
Introductio n
The following pages provide instructions on how to properly
protect the driver and other adult
occupants.
These instructions also apply to children who have outgrown childseats and are large enough to wear
lap/shoulder belts. (See page 37 for
important additional guidelines on
how to properly protect larger
children.) 1
. Clos e an d Loc k th e Door s
After everyone has entered the car, be sure the doors are closed and
locked.
Your car has a doormonitor light on the
instrument panel to indicate when a specific door is not tightly closed. For safety, locking the doors reduces
the chance that a passenger, especially a child, will open a door
while the car is moving and accidentally fall out. It also reduces
the chance of someone being thrown out of the car during a crash.
For security, locked doors can
prevent an outsider from unexpectedly opening a door when
you come to a stop.
See page 74 for how to lock the
doors.

Sea t Bel t Syste m Component s
Your seat belt system includes lap/ shoulder belts in all four seating
positions.
The seat belt system alsoincludes a light on the
instrument panel to remind you and
your passengers to fasten your belts. If the driver's seat belt is not
fastened before the ignition is turned ON (II), the light will come on and a
beeper will also sound. The beeper
will stop after a few seconds, but the
light will stay on until the driver's seat belt is fastened.

Your car comes with two master keys and a vale
t key.
Th
e master key fits all the locks on
your vehicle:

You should have received a key number plate with your keys. You
will need this key number if you ever have to get a lost key replaced. Keep
the plate stored in a safe place. If you
need to replace a key, use only
Honda-approved key blanks.
These keys contain electronic circuits that are activated by theImmobilizer System. They will not
work to start the engine if the circuits are damaged. Protect the keys from direct
sunlight, high temperature, and
high humidity. Do not drop the keys or set heavy
objects on them. Keep the keys away from liquids.
If they get wet, dry them immedi-
ately with a soft cloth.
The keys do not contain batteries. Do not try to take them apart.

To lock the passenger'
s doo
r when
getting out of the car, push the lock
tab in and close the door. To lock the driver's door, remove the key from
the ignition switch and push the lock
tab in or push the master switch down, then close the door.
Both doors can be locked from the
outside by using the key in either
door.
To unlock only the driver's door from the outside, insert the key in
the driver's door lock, turn the key and release it. If you turn the key
and hold it, both doors will unlock.
Both doors will unlock when you

If you forget and leave the key in the
ignition switch, Lockout Prevention

door is not open, the master door
lock switches are not disabled. Pushing the switch down on the
open passenger's door will lock both
doors. If you try to lock an open driver's door by pushing in the lock
tab, the tabs on both doors pop out. Pushing in the lock tab on the
passenger's door only locks that door. You can lock and unlock your car
with the remote transmitter. Whenyou push the LOCK button, both doors lock.
When you push the UNLOCK button once, only the driver's door unlocks.
The passenger's door unlocks when you push the button a second time.
