Honda tyre deflation warning system user guide

Maintaining the correct tyre pressure is important for the safety, performance and economy of your Honda. Low tyre pressure will not only adversely affect fuel economy, it will also increase stopping distances and reduce steering response and vehicle stability. EU Directive 661/2009 requires all passenger vehicles registered after 1st November 2014 to be equipped with a tyre deflation warning system.

If the deflation warning has been activated, it is important to stop the car and check your tyre pressures, adjusting each to the correct pressure shown on the information sticker in the driver's door shut.

Once your tyres have been checked and adjusted, you must reinitialise the deflation warning system by following the instructions below:
