Automatic Transmission - Honda 2003 CR-V Owner's Manual

Automatic Transmission

Your Honda's transmission has four
forward speeds, and is electronically
controlled for smoother shifting. It
also has a ''lock-up'' torque converter
for better fuel economy. You may
feel what seems like another shift
when the converter locks.

Shift Lever Position Indicator
This indicator on the instrument
panel shows which position the shift
lever is in.
The ''D'' indicator comes on for a
few seconds when you turn the
ignition switch ON (II). If it flashes
while driving (in any shift position),
it indicates a possible problem in the
transmission. Avoid rapid accelera-
tion and have the transmission
checked by an authorized Honda
dealer as soon as possible.
The malfunction indicator lamp may
come on along with the ''D'' indicator
if there is a problem in the automatic
transmission control system.
