INTRODUCTION TABLE OF CONTENTS
This Owner’s Guide is intended to help you quickly get acquainted with your
2017 Honda Clarity Fuel Cell. It provides basic information and instructions on
technology and convenience features, as well as emergency procedures and how to get
assistance.
This guide is for vehicles sold in the United States. It covers all Clarity Fuel Cell models,
so you may find descriptions of features and equipment that are not in your vehicle.
This guide is not intended to be a substitute for the Owner’s Manual. The Owner
Information CD enclosed in your glove box kit includes the Owner’s Manual, Navigation
Manual, and vehicle and tire warranties in electronic format. This information can be
viewed on a computer (PC or Mac platform) and saved or printed for your reference. You
can also visit owners.honda.com to view the complete and most current information.
If you are the first registered owner of your vehicle, you may request a complimentary
printed copy of the Owner’s Manual, Navigation Manual, or Vehicle Warranty within the
first six months of vehicle purchase. To request a copy, visit owners.honda.com (U.S.)
and create or log in to your account.
American Honda Motor Co., Inc. strives to be proactive in protecting our environment
and natural resources. By using electronic delivery for a considerable portion of the
information typically found in a vehicle owner’s manual, we are further reducing our
impact on the environment.
