Transmission (CVT)
On HX model
Honda's Continuously Variable
automatic transmission's unique
design provides a smooth, constant
flow of power. It is electronically
controlled for more precise operation
and better fuel economy.
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.
