the manual that comes with the car is there for a reason. please search before posting blunt questions like that... every operation procedure, dash light, and safty info is in your manual. there is alot of info in there people dont think is important.

Just an other question. When you reset the oil life and it turns to 100%, does this reset your km/miles? Because i reseted the oil life and now don't see how many miles/km i've ride till now!

What should i do for seeing the miles/ km back?

Are you talking about the trip meter or the odometer?

Press the select/reset button to get back to the odometer.

If you accidently reset your trip meter in the process of reseting the oil life than there is no way to recover that.

Once the trip meter is reset there is no going back.

You're responding to a 7 year old post. For lack of a manual, a Google search provides all answers.

Gee, I wonder how i found this forum? perhaps you should try it too and look at the top result. no wonder Honda forums have such a bad rap. Now, if you want to talk technology, i am happy to educate you

Let me google that for you

Er. Lemme educate you on forum etiquette and how you DON'T bump dead threads just to say "me too" or attempt to pick a fight. There's a reason that the thread is no longer active and the person that you are responding to, the person that you decided was speaking to you directly and insulting you, made that post 7 years ago.

As for not being able to find a manual for your car. Lemme educate you on how to use Ebay.

And now Google for every place else on the internet.

You can download an owner's manual PDF on owners.honda.com. Looks like they only go back to 2011, but the changes are pretty minor from 06 to 11. You can also buy a hard copy of the owner's manual.

I just want to say that whomever is posting, "Read your car manual it's there for a reason." As well as you are continuing to rewrite it a thousand times over throughout this thread is completely and utterly ignorant. I do not even have a Honda, I actually just joined this forum just to respond to such stupidity. I do want to apologize if I am coming off as rude, but think of how belittling you are, as you are talking down to everyone and degrading them like your someone special. I mean if your such the expert on this "Honda Manuel" then share your thoughts and experience, do not spread your ignorance and insult our intelligence. As I said prior...I do not own a Honda, as I was actually searching for the same question for a friend of mine because like this person here whom you are being extremely rude to and they deserve an apology which I'm sure they will never get nor probably do not want. What I am getting at is that my friend bought her Honda from another person who DID NOT HAVE THE OWNERS MANUAL IN THE CAR! So what do you do on that one? Hmmmm.....I figure search the Web correct? Or you can go to your local Honda Dealer and see if they Maybe still have a 2007 Manuel considering that was 8 years ago and pay out the butt for it or you can have nice friendly people whom already have manuals just simply tell you without attitude. In all seriousness...There was no need to be nasty, and it was uncalled for and you know it. I don't care whatever is going on in your life, we've all got problems no need for you to take it out on people who are seeking help. Have a wonderful day, and my apologies for any inconvenience this may have caused you as I was not intentionally not meaning to be rude.
