Honda Jazz Mk3 2015 - 2020 / Re: Resetting right hand round dashboard dial. (HOW TO)
« Last post by ColinB on December 05, 2024, 05:31:34 PM »This might depend on which screen you're starting from, but typically:
1. Press either Up/Down button (lower-right of steering wheel) repeatedly until the Exit screen appears (like an open door with an arrow pointing left)
2. Press Sel/Reset
3. You should now be back to the "Customise settings" screen (like two pages, one superimposed on the other).
4. Now use the Up/Down buttons repeatedly to cycle through the various screens to find the one you want.
If in doubt ... it's all in the handbook (available on the Honda website if you don't have the hard copy)

I had an original Mk1 Golf in my late teens, the original hot hatch and sought after by so many boy(or girl) racers in its day. Today the Jazz is just as fast, yet only sought after by pensioners :'(

Honda Jazz Mk4 2020 - / Re: obscure Icons
« Last post by ninanina on December 05, 2024, 04:56:31 PM »Hi all. I am new to my 2021 hybrid and a couple of times an icon pops up that I can't find in the manual. Is there a website that gives all the icons, not just the more common ones? And I find the manual less than user friendly though I do consult it when required.
Can you take a picture of the icon to share on here? I’m sure someone will be able to help once we see what it is
If not can you describe the icon, that may help diagnose it
This link might help, scroll between Red, Amber, Green and Blue to see the list of icons:

« Last post by ninanina on December 05, 2024, 04:52:36 PM »Absolutely if you have up to 3 people in the car (plus their luggage) and don’t drive above 100mph the tyre pressures should be:
Front 35psi Rear 33psi
Front 35psi Rear 33psi

The only reason why I didn’t go for the Sport version Jazz is that I didn’t want to lose too much comfort compared to my Prius which is classed as a model or two above the Jazz size wise
I find my standard Jazz Advance very comfortable and has quite a soft ride and if that means it doesn’t handle quite as well as the Sport version then I’m happy with the trade off
The only other car I was considering was the Yaris and the Jazz outshines it in so many ways; that’s coming from a Toyota fan too!

The Jazz is probably the most comfortable, spacious, economical and silent car I've driven so far!
I agree, that it is quite nippy in town! However, imho it is very far from a sporty car! - I had quite some tempering to do when cornering compared to my previous car (a "measly" VW Polo Blue GT which seemed "glued" to the road in comparison to the Jazz) - well I'm not complaining: I'm getting old and feel quite comfortable with the many comforts the Jazz offers!
It's just the (in this thread / forum) portrayed idea, that a Jazz is in any way a match for any sportier car - the ability to drive off niftily from a traffic light isn't the most defining feature of a "sports car" in my book.
Being able to corner at 10 to 20 mph faster than the "competition", being able to break from 62.5 mph to 0 within 34 meters (or even less), never feeling "concerned" about "road grip", being able to accelerate "reasonably" even well beyond 70 mph is what makes a car sporty in my book!
I consider myself a very defensive driver but I had to cut back sharply from cornering speed when switching from the Blue GT to the Jazz! Corners that previously were no proplem at all at 50 mph I have to take now at 40 at most to feel safe!
For your own safety and health (and that of your fellow motorists): Please do not confound the mere capability of acceleration with the capabilities of a true sports car! - I'm more worried about road grip and the capability of deceleration where the Jazz seems to be trailing the competition - partially owing to Honda's choice of "fuel efficient" tyres.
On a merrier thought: Have you yet tried the "long" press on the voice input button to trigger SirI?
Worry not coldstart as I’m under no illusion that the Jazz is in anyway a sports car, especially handling wise but I totally agree with you about how comfortable, quiet and spacious she is. I’m so impressed with her so far
What I was trying to say was that compared to the Prius I do find her a lot of fun to drive. I think that the lack of bulk helps the Jazz feel quite sprightly and kinda fun around town and the quick get away is a nice bonus that I wasn’t expecting
However I’m already aware that some corners I could take fairly easily at 50 in the Prius I’d be happier to take at 40’ish in the Jazz. That’s absolutely fine with me as the Jazz does so many things very well; it’s an agreeable trade off
I still think the Jazz is fun to drive which is against what most of the reviews say about her
Yes I’ve tried the long press on the voice control button to trigger Siri and so far so good. The sticking point is that I’m using the free Spotify app that has limited capabilities so I might upgrade to premium which would open up more music and facilities, plus no adds!

« Last post by HertsHonda on December 05, 2024, 04:09:57 PM »Re: squiggles / wavey line they are Tilde characters. IMHO mean less than or greater than.
More normally mean 'approximately'.
But in this instance:-
~ 160 = less than 160kph.
160 ~ = greater than 160kph.
As others have said - a non standard way of expressining less than and greater than.
