Automatic Transmission - Honda RDX Owner's Manual

Automatic Transmission

Shift Lever Position Indicators
These indicators on the instrument
panel show which position the shift
lever is in.
376
The ''D'' indicator comes on for a few
seconds when you turn the ignition
switch to the ON (II) position. If it
flashes while driving (in any shift
position), it indicates a possible
problem in the transmission.
If the malfunction indicator lamp
comes on along with the ''D''
indicator, there is a problem with the
automatic transmission control
system. Avoid rapid acceleration, and
have the transmission checked by
your dealer as soon as possible.
When the ''D'' indicator warns of a
possible problem with the
transmission, you will see a ''CHECK
TRANSMISSION'' message on the
multi-information display (see page
80).
