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 acceler-
ation 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
continuously variable transmission
control system.
