Honda CR-V: Preparing to Drive
You still need to exercise the same care when accelerating, steering, and braking that you would in a twowheel drive vehicle.
1. Make sure all windows, mirrors, and outside lights are clean and unobstructed. Remove frost, snow, or ice.

5. Check the seat adjustment.
6. Check the adjustment of the inside and outside mirrors.

9. Fasten your seat belt. Check that your passengers have fastened their seat belts.
