Interior equipment for comfort (Honda Civic 8)

Glove box

Open the glove box lid by pulling the handle in the direction of the arrow. To close the glove box, simply slam the lid shut.

The glove compartment lighting is switched on simultaneously with the side lights.

Warning! An open glove box lid in the event of a traffic accident can cause serious injury to the passenger sitting in the front seat, even if the passenger is wearing a seat belt.

Therefore, while the vehicle is moving, the glove compartment lid must be closed.

Cooled glove box (for some vehicle versions)

You can store bottles and cans of drinks in the glove box, which is cooled by the air conditioning system. To cool the glove box, you need to open it and then turn the handle counterclockwise, which opens the air duct. The handle is on the upper inner wall of the glove box. Turn on the air conditioner and set the mode or air flow distribution. Cold air will start flowing from the air conditioner into the glove compartment.

Only tightly sealed containers should be placed in the glove box. Remember that spilled liquids can damage the interior trim and electrical components located in the glove box and behind the dashboard. If you do not need to cool the glove box, close the vent by turning the knob clockwise. Keep in mind that if the air conditioning system is in heating mode, then when the vent is open, heated air will flow into the glove box.

Storage bins in the center console

The car is equipped with a multifunctional center console with cup holders, storage compartments, an armrest, a cigarette lighter, a removable ashtray, and components for a seat heating system (with this system in place).

The main drawer is located under the armrest. To use the drawer, pull the lever and fold the armrest up.

The lower drawer of the console can be used to store drinks or to place various items in it. To open the drawer, slide the lid back.

The drawer has a divider. If you want to use this drawer for storage, slide the divider back. To get the maximum volume of the drawer, remove the ashtray from it.



To close the drawer, slide the lid forward.

Cup holders

The front cup holder is located in the center console. To access it, slide the cover back and push the partition forward as far as it will go.



When using cup holders, be careful not to burn yourself or other passengers with hot drinks. If you keep open beverage containers in the door niches, the liquid may splash out when you open or close the door. Therefore, store only securely closed beverage containers in the door niches.

Keep in mind that many drinks can damage the appearance of floor mats, seat upholstery, and interior door panels. Liquid splashes on electrical contacts can cause damage to the interior electrical equipment.

For some vehicle versions

Rear seat passengers have cup holders located in the center armrest. To use the rear cup holders, fold down the armrest.

Electrical outlet

The vehicle has an accessory socket located on the left side of the luggage compartment. The socket is designed to accommodate accessories that consume 12 V DC and 120 W or less (maximum current: 10 A).



To use the socket, the ignition key must be turned to the "ACCESSORY" (I) or "ON" (II) position. The socket cannot be used to connect a separate cigarette lighter.

It is recommended to connect genuine Honda accessories to this socket.

After using the socket, remember to close the cover to prevent debris from getting into the socket.

Central drawer

To open the center drawer, lift the lid.

Clothes hook

Before using the hook, move it slightly and turn it down.

When not using the hook, turn it to the up position. The hook is not designed to hold large or heavy objects.

Sun visor

To use the sun visor, fold it down. The visor can protect the driver's eyes not only from the windshield but also from the side sunlight. To do this, remove the visor support rod from the clip and turn the visor toward the side window.



To prevent the visor from interfering with boarding and disembarking, do not leave it in a side position.

Mirror in the sun visor

To access the mirror, fold up the sun visor cover. When the cover is folded down, the mirror illumination is automatically switched on.

Box under the floor

Cars without a spare wheel There is a storage box under the boot floor. To access it, lift the floor cover and hook the loop onto the hook on the back of the boot lid (if the car is equipped with it).


You can also place the floor cover on the bottom of the luggage compartment to increase its capacity. To do this, lift the cover, pull it towards you until it stops, so that it separates from the mounting rods, and then place the cover on the bottom of the luggage compartment.



To perform the specified operation, follow the figure.

Cigarette lighter

The cigarette lighter only works when the ignition key is in two positions: "ACCESSORY" (I) or "ON" (II), i.e. when the ignition or auxiliary power consumers are on. To turn on the cigarette lighter, press the handle and push it until the lock clicks. After the cigarette lighter coil is heated, the handle will automatically return to its original position with a click. Do not hold the cigarette lighter handle while the coil is heating. This may cause overheating and failure of the cigarette lighter.

If you push the cigarette lighter in and the ignition key is not in the "ACCESSORY" (I) or "ON" (II) positions, it will not return to its original position. To make the cigarette lighter pop out, turn on the ignition. Do not try to force the cigarette lighter out.

Ashtray

To use the ashtray, open its lid. You can remove the ashtray to empty its contents or to increase the volume of the console drawer. To remove the ashtray, slide the drawer lid back, then lift the ashtray vertically.

Warning! Use the ashtray only for its intended purpose - for cigarette butts, cigars, etc. To avoid fire, do not put scraps of paper, candy wrappers or other flammable materials in the ashtray. If debris ignites in the ashtray, it may cause damage to the vehicle.

Interior lighting lamps

Front ceiling light

There is a two-position switch on the front interior light. When the switch is in the "DOOR" position, the light turns on automatically when any door of the car is opened. When the switch is in the "OFF" position, the light is off. To turn on the automatic mode, press the switch so that the button extends.

The front lampshade is combined with two lampshades of individual lighting. Two side buttons are used to turn them on or off. You can use these lampshades at any time.

When the switch is in the "DOOR" position, the front interior light also comes on when the door locks are unlocked using the key or remote control, and when the key is removed from the ignition switch.

Rear lamp

The rear interior light switch has three positions. In the "ON" position, the light is on. In the "OFF" position, the light does not light. When the switch is in the middle position, the light turns on automatically:

• when opening any door of the car;
• when the key is removed from the ignition. If none of the doors are opened after this, the light will gradually go out after 30 seconds;
• when unlocking the door with a key or remote control.

After all the car doors are tightly closed, the light from the lamp gradually dims, and after approximately 30 seconds the lamp goes out completely.

If the key is removed from the ignition and any door is left open, the light will go out after three minutes.

Ignition switch illumination

The ignition switch illumination automatically turns on when the driver's door is opened and turns off 30 seconds after the driver's door is closed.

Local lighting lamp
