Automatic Transmission
Your Honda's transmission has five
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.

Driving
Shift Lever Position Indicator
This indicator between the tacho-
meter and speedometer shows which
position the shift lever is in.
The illuminated number next to the
''M'' indicator shows you the gear
you have selected in the Sequential
SportShift mode.
The ''D'' indicator comes on for a
few seconds when you turn the
ignition switch to ON (II). If it
flashes while driving (in any shift
position), it indicates a possible
problem in the transmission. Avoid
rapid acceleration, 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.
