Battery Connections for Electric Starter

Recommended Battery:
Be careful not to connect the battery in reverse polarity, as this
will short circuit the electrical system. Always connect the
positive (+) battery cable to the battery terminal before
connecting the negative (–) battery cable, so your tools cannot
cause a short circuit if they touch a grounded part while
tightening the positive (+) battery cable end.
Make sure to keep the battery cable away from the ECU (engine
control unit).
A battery can explode if you do not follow the correct
procedure, seriously injuring anyone nearby.
Keep all sparks, open flames, and smoking materials
away from the battery.
WARNING: Battery posts, terminals, and related accessories
contain lead and lead compounds. Wash your hands after
handling.
Make sure the engine switch to the OFF position (see page 5).
1. Connect the battery positive (+) cable to the starter solenoid
terminal as shown.
2. Connect the battery negative (–) cable to an engine mounting
bolt, frame bolt, or other good engine ground connection.
3. Connect the battery positive (+) cable to the battery positive
(+) terminal as shown.
4. Connect the battery negative (–) cable to the battery negative
(–) terminal as shown.
5. Coat the terminals and cable ends with grease.

Emission Control System Information

Emission Control System Warranty
Your new Honda complies with both the U.S. EPA and State of
California emission regulations. American Honda provides the
same emission warranty coverage for Honda Power Equipment
engines sold in all 50 states. In all areas of the United States,
your Honda Power Equipment engine is designed, built, and
equipped to meet the U.S. EPA and California Air Resources
Board emission standard for spark ignited engines.
Warranty Coverage
Honda Power Equipment engines certified to CARB and U.S. EPA
regulations are covered by this warranty to be free from defects
in materials and workmanship that may keep it from meeting the
applicable U.S. EPA and CARB emissions requirements for a
minimum of 2 years or the length of the Honda Power Equipment
Distributor's Limited Warranty, whichever is longer, from the
original date of delivery to the retail purchaser. This warranty is
transferable to each subsequent purchaser for the duration of the
warranty period.
Warranty repairs will be made without charge for diagnosis,
parts, and labor. Information about how to make a warranty
claim, as well as a description of how a claim can be made and/
or how service can be provided, can be obtained by contacting
an authorized Honda Power Equipment dealer or by contacting
American Honda at the following:
Email: powerequipmentemissions@ahm.honda.com
Telephone: (888) 888-3139
The covered components include all components whose failure
would increase an engine's emissions of any regulated pollutant
or evaporative emissions. A list of specific components can be
found in the separately included emissions warranty statement.
Specific warranty terms, coverage, limitations and manner of
seeking warranty service are also set forth in the separately
included emissions warranty statement. In addition, the
emissions warranty statement can also be found on the Honda
Power equipment website or at the following link:

Source of Emissions
The combustion process produces carbon monoxide, oxides of
nitrogen, and hydrocarbons. Control of hydrocarbons and oxides
of nitrogen are very important because, under certain conditions,
they react to form photochemical smog when subjected to
sunlight.
Carbon monoxide does not react in the same way, but it is toxic.
Honda utilizes appropriate air/fuel ratios and other emissions
control systems to reduce the emissions of carbon monoxide,
oxides of nitrogen, and hydrocarbons.
Additionally, Honda fuel systems utilize components and control
technologies to reduce evaporative emissions.
The U.S. and California Clean Air Acts, and Environment and
Climate Change Canada (ECCC)
U.S. EPA, California and Canadian regulations require all
manufacturers to furnish written instructions describing the
operation and maintenance of emission control systems.
The following instructions and procedures must be followed in
order to keep the Honda engine emissions within the emission
standards.
