View Full Version : Some things in the owner's manual I missed the 1st time

I was rereading my Si owner's manual and noticed some interesting tidbits I did not see the first time I read it.

1. When using the heat, the fan should be on the floor vent setting. I guess this is because hot air rises. Makes sense.

2. When putting it in reverse, press the clutch and wait a few seconds before shifting.

3. The CD will eject anytime, long after the car has been turned off.

:o
Didn't know about that CD eject thingy!


I guess a lot of people here skipped over the part that says "do not alter your vehicles ride hieght";)

I can't stand to have my heat on just the floor vent. When I do, it feels like my shoe is melting. I don't know if mine is excessively hotter than it should be, but it doesn't bother me enough to take it to honda for them to rip it apart and look at it. I usually just keep in at a middle temperature vent/floor vent setting during the winter, and it does just fine.

Didn't know about the whole clutch thing, but ejecting the CD while the car is off has always been a sure way to impress the chix0rz :p

Then you obviously haven't see the latest in "Dillywhacker" technology. The latest creation, "The Clit Blaster 2000" works miracles they say....... and the chicks love it. :D :D

Owners manuals always make me laugh anyway, they are written for idiots. They are like "where to put the gas in" and "where is the steering wheel" chapters in them.
