n Important Facts About Your Airbags
Always wear your seat belt properly, and sit upright and as far back from the
steering wheel as possible while allowing full control of the vehicle. A\
front
passenger should move their seat as far back from the dashboard as possi\
ble.
Do not place hard or sharp objects between yourself and a front airbag. Carrying
hard or sharp objects on your lap, or driving with a pipe or other sharp\
o
bject in your
mouth, can result in injuries if your front airbag inflates.
Do not attach or place objects on the front airbag covers. Objects on the covers
marked SRS AIRBAG could interfere with the proper operation of the airba\
gs or be
propelled inside the vehicle and hurt someone if the airbags inflate.
Do not attach accessories on or near the side airbags. They can interfere with the
proper operation of the airbags, or hurt someone if an airbag infl ate\
s.
Do not attach any objects to the side windows or roof pillars. They can interfere
with the proper operation of the side curtain airbags.
Do not cover or replace the front seat-back covers. This can prevent your side
airbags from properly deploying during a side impact.
WARNING
An open glove box can cause serious injury to your passenger in a crash,\

even if the passenger is wearing the seat belt.
Always keep the glove box closed while driving.
n Airbag System Indicators
If a problem occurs in the airbag system, the SRS indicator comes on and\
a message
appears on the multi-information display.
SRS (Supplemental Restraint System) indicator
If the indicator comes on at any other time besides
vehicle start-up, or does not come on at all, have the
system checked by a dealer as soon as possible. If
you don’t, your airbags and seat belt tensioners may
not work properly when they are needed.
WARNING
Ignoring the SRS indicator can result in serious injury or death if the \
airbag systems or tensioners do not work properly.
Have your vehicle checked by a dealer as soon as possible if the SRS
indicator alerts you to a possible problem.
Airbag System Indicators
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. Canada
Infants and small children should always ride properly restrained in a b\
ack 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 passe\
nger’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 fl\
oor
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 t\
otal weight
on the seat is near the airbag cutoff threshold.

n Airbag System Components
n 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 infl ated, the control unit and other related parts m\
ust 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 infl ate, have your dealer inspect the fol\
lowing: 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 Traffi c Safety Administration and Transport Canada recommend
that all children ages 12 and under be properly restrained in a rear sea\
t. 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.
n
Protecting Child Passengers
•
An inflating front or side airbag can injure or kill a child sitting i\
n 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 restrai\
ned 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 bel\
t 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 ve\
ry
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 weath\
er 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.
WARNING
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 c\
hild
seat. A larger child should be properly restrained with a seat belt, usi\
ng a
booster seat if necessary.
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 unuse\
d
seat belt a child can reach is buckled, fully retracted, and locked.
n Protecting Infants
An infant must be properly restrained in a rear-facing, reclining child seat until the
infant reaches the seat manufacturer’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 t\
he 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.
WARNING
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.

SAFETY
20 || 21
S
AFETY
n Protecting Smaller Children
If a child is at least one year old and within the weight range indicate\
d 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.
WARNING
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.
n Selecting a Child Seat
Most child seats are LATCH-compatible (Lower Anchors and Tethers for CHildren).
Some have a rigid-type connector, while others have a fl exible-type connector.
Both are equally easy to use. Some existing and previously owned child s\
eats can
only be installed using the seat belt. Whichever type you choose, follow\
the child
seat manufacturer’s use and care instructions (including recommended expiration
dates) 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 add\
ed 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 addit\
ion, the child
seat manufacturer may advise that a seat belt be used to attach a LATCHcompatible
seat once a child reaches a specifi ed weight. Please read the child s\
eat 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. n
Installing a LATCH-Compatible Child Seat
A LATCH-compatible child seat can be installed in each of the second- and th\
ird row
seats. A child seat is attached to the lower anchors with either the rig\
id or flexible
type of connectors.
1.
Locate the lower anchors under the marks.
2.
Make sure there are no objects near the anchors
that could prevent a secure connection between
the child seat and the anchors.Mark s

3.
First, attach the tether strap hook to the center
tether anchor. Place the head restraint in its
lowest position, route the tether strap around the
upper guide. Then downward attach the strap

n 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 manufacturer’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 lo\
ckable
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. n
Adding Security with a Tether
A tether anchorage point is provided behind each second- and third-row s\
eating
position. If you have a child restraint system that comes with a tether \
but can be
installed with a seat belt, the tether may be used for additional securi\
ty.
1.
For outer positions: Raise the outer head restraint
to its highest position, then route the tether strap
between the head restraint legs. Lift the cover then
hook the tether strap through the upper guide, then
downward to attach at the anchor on the outside
of the seat bottom. Make sure the strap is not
twisted.

For the center position: Lower the center head
restraint to its lowest position, then route the
tether strap through the upper guide, then down
the back of the seat, and secure the tether strap
hook onto the anchor. Make sure the strap is not
twisted.Cove r

n Protecting Larger Children
When a child is too big for a child seat, secure the child in a rear sea\
t using the lap/
shoulder seat belt.
Have the child sit upright and all the way back, then ensure the followi\
ng:
•
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 6\
0 lbs). Be sure
to check current laws in the state or province/territory where you inten\
d to drive.
WARNING
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 th\
e rear
as possible, then have the child sit up properly and wear the seat belt \
properly, using a booster seat if needed.
Safety Label Locations
Safety labels are in the locations shown. They warn you of potential haz\
ards that can
cause serious injury or death. Read these labels carefully.To reduce the number of child
deaths and injuries, every state, Canadian province and territory requir\
es that infants
and children be properly restrained when they ride in a vehicle.
