SAFETY REMINDER

Your vehicle is equipped with airbags. Airbags do not replace seat belts; they add tothe protection offered by seat belts. Airbags can help protect you in some types ofcollisions, but they do not provide protection in all collisions.

Always make sure you and your passengers wear seat belts, and that young childrenare properly secured in a child seat or booster in the rear seat. Never place an infantseat in the front passenger’s seat as the force of a deploying airbag can seriouslyinjure an infant.

FUEL RECOMMENDAT ION

• Only use unleaded gasoline of 87 octane or higher.• Some gasoline in North America contains MMT, a manganese-based fuel additive.Prolonged and consistent use of gasoline containing MMT can deteriorate yourvehicle’s performance, fuel economy, and the emission control system. Always useMMT-free gasoline if available. Failures caused by use of gasoline containing MMTmay not be covered under warranty.• “TOPTIER Detergent Gasoline” meets a new gasoline standard jointly establishedby leading automotive manufacturers to meet the needs of today’s advancedengines. In most cases, qualifying gasoline retailers will identify their gasoline ashaving met “TOPTIER Detergent Gasoline” standards at the retail location. Thisfuel is guaranteed to contain the proper level of detergent additives and be free ofmetallic additives. This helps avoid build-up of deposits in your engine andemission control system. Because the level of detergency and harmful metallicadditives (such as MMT) in gasoline vary in the market, Honda endorses the useof “TOPTIER Detergent Gasoline” where available to help maintain theperformance and reliability of your vehicle. For more information, visitwww.toptiergas.com.• For further important information on fuel and lubricants for your car andinformation on gasoline that does not contain MMT, contact your dealer or visitOwner Link at owners.honda.com.
