Oil Pressure Warning Light
The oil pressure warning light will come on, and remain on, if there is
insufficient oil pressure or when the ignition switch is turned on
with the engine not running. If the light should come on while driving,
get the car off the road as soon as you can, turn the engine off and
check the engine oil level (see page 65 ).
Even if the oil level is correct, the engine should be checked by a
Honda dealer before the car is driven again.
NOTE:
The oil pressure warning light will only light as a result of low oil
pressure. It is not directly an oil level indicator.
CAUTION:
Running the engine while the oil pressure warning light is on
constantly may cause immediate and severe engine damage.
Charging System Warning Light
The charging system warning light
comes on when there is a problem
with the electrical charging system
or when the ignition switch is turn-
ed on with the engine not running. If
the light comes on while driving, get
off the road, stop the car and turn
off the ignition. Then check the
alternator belt for proper tension.
To check the belt tension, push with about 98 N (22 Ib) of force on
the middle of the belt as shown. The belt should deflect about:
9.0 — 11.0 mm (0.35 — 0.43 in)
If the engine has been running, some engine components may be
hot enough to burn you.
NOTE:
If necessary, have the charging system checked by an authorized
Honda dealer.
