    Jup.

    Cars actually come with manuals that explain this stuff.

    Reading is a lost art.

      I’m with you, I’m the one who read my wife’s car manual.

      One of life’s pleasures, for me, is getting home with a shiny new thing and going over the manual and trying out the features, and of course it will work as described, and somehow that’s very satisfying.

      I might be on the spectrum though, my experience is that people find that weird and nobody bothers to read manuals.

      Honestly Ive looked all over for my car manual but I cant find it anywhere on the internet. My car is a 1993 Honda Civic EK3 which I got second (more likely 5th or 10th) hand. The earliest model’s manual I can find online is the 1995 model. Do you know a good site that might have the owners manual for my model?

        It should normally be on a label stuck to the left B-pillar, below the latch for the driver-side door (that little loop thingy the door grabs onto when closed)

        ManualsLib also has the original manual where it’s listed on pg. 143.

        Edit: From what I can gather, “EK3” is a codename for a model and generation of the Civic. The EK3 also started in '96, not '93, so you may have been given the wrong info.

        [This model utilized the same design language as the rest of the Civic range but was actually a hatchback version of the Honda Domani, sharing that car’s platform which was derived from the previous-generation (EG/EH/EJ) Civic.](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Honda_Civic_(sixth_generation)
