Honda Odyssey 2020

The Honda Odyssey is a minivan that has been a popular choice for families since its introduction in the 1990s. The 2020 Honda Odyssey is part of the fifth generation of this minivan, offering a spacious and versatile interior, advanced technology, and a comfortable driving experience. In terms of its exterior design, the 2020 Odyssey features a sleek and modern appearance with a bold front grille, available LED headlights, and distinctive character lines. Despite its minivan proportions, Honda has managed to give the Odyssey a streamlined and stylish look. Inside the cabin, the 2020 Odyssey offers a spacious and comfortable environment for up to eight passengers, depending on the seating configuration. The second-row seats can be configured as either a bench or captain’s chairs, and the third-row Magic Seat can be folded down for additional cargo space. The cabin is well-designed and features available amenities such as leather upholstery, heated and ventilated front seats, a power-adjustable driver’s seat, and a rear-seat entertainment system.

The 2020 Odyssey is powered by a 3.5-liter V6 engine, producing 280 horsepower and 262 lb-ft of torque. It is mated to a 10-speed automatic transmission, providing smooth and responsive performance. The Odyssey delivers a comfortable and composed ride, making it suitable for long trips or daily commuting. In terms of technology and features, the 2020 Odyssey comes well-equipped. It offers a variety of amenities, including a touchscreen infotainment system with available Apple CarPlay and Android Auto integration, Bluetooth connectivity, a rearview camera, tri-zone automatic climate control, and a power-sliding rear door. Higher trim levels may offer additional features such as a rear-seat entertainment system, a built-in vacuum cleaner, navigation, and a premium audio system. Safety is a priority in the 2020 Odyssey, which comes with Honda Sensing as a standard feature. Honda Sensing is a suite of safety and driver-assistance technologies that includes features such as collision mitigation braking, lane-keeping assist, adaptive cruise control, and road departure mitigation. These features work together to enhance safety and help prevent accidents. Please note that the information provided here is based on the Honda Odyssey 2020 model up until my knowledge cutoff in September 2021. For the most up-to-date and detailed information about the 2020 Honda Odyssey, I recommend contacting a Honda dealership or visiting the official Honda website.

Immobilizer System

The immobilizer system prevents a key that has not been pre-registered from starting the engine. Each key contains electronic transmitters that use electronic signals to verify the key.
Pay attention to the following when pressing the ENGINE START/STOP button:

• Do not allow objects that emit strong radio waves near the ENGINE START/STOP button.
• Make sure the key is not covered by or touching a metal object.
• Do not bring a key from another vehicle’s immobilizer system near the ENGINE START/STOP button.
• Do not put the key near magnetic items. Electronic devices, such as televisions and audio systems emit strong magnetic fields. Note that even a key chain can become magnetic.

Auto-Closer

If you manually close the power sliding door, it latches automatically. The auto-closer feature activates with or without the main switch ON. Keep your hands away from the power sliding door. The manually closed door latches automatically when it is half-shut. The auto-closer feature does not activate if you keep pulling the inner or outer handle while the sliding door is closing. Do not put any force on the power sliding door while the door is latching. If you manually close the power tailgate, it latches automatically.

Power Tailgate Fall Detection
Automatically lowers the power tailgate when there is a possibility that the fully opened power tailgate can fall down by its own weight (for example, by snow on the tailgate). The beeper sounds while the power tailgate lowers.

Auto-Closer
The auto-closer feature does not activate if you press the tailgate outer handle while the power tailgate is closing. Do not put any force on the tailgate while the power tailgate is latching. Keep your hands away from the tailgate when you manually close the tailgate and let it latch automatically. It is dangerous to put your hands around the tailgate as it starts to latch itself.

Power Tailgate Fall Detection
If you try to manually close the power tailgate immediately after it fully opens, the power tailgate fall detection may activate. Once the power tailgate fall detection activates, wait until the power tailgate fully closes. Keep away from the power tailgate when it is in motion. If the power tailgate fall detection constantly activates, consult at a dealer.

Using the Tailgate Outer Handle
When all the doors are unlocked or press the tailgate unlock button on the remote transmitter, the tailgate is unlocked. Press the outer handle of the tailgate and lift open the tailgate.

Models with the smart entry system
If you are carrying the remote, you do not have to unlock the tailgate before opening it. To close the tailgate, grab the inner handle, pull the tailgate down, and push it closed from the outside.

Using the Tailgate Outer Handle
Do not leave the remote in the cargo area before closing the tailgate.

Models with the smart entry system
Even if you are not carrying the remote, you can lock/unlock the tailgate while someone else with the remote is within range.

Using the Remote Transmitter
Press the tailgate unlock button to unlock the tailgate.

Precautions for Opening/Closing the Sliding Doors
Always make sure individuals and objects are clear of the sliding doors.

• Opening the sliding doors
  Open the door all the way until it stops.
  • If it is not fully opened, the door may close again by its own weight.

WARNING
Closing a sliding door while any part of a passenger is in the door’s path can cause serious injury. Make sure all passengers are clear of the doorway before closing a sliding door. Do not leave the sliding door open while parking on a slope. The door may slide close by its weight. When opening or closing the sliding doors, do not grab the door or place your hand on the vehicle’s body. Use the handle. Do not put your foot and hand on the sliding door rail and on the rollers. If a small child is in the vehicle, use the childproof door locks to prevent the child in the rear seat from accidentally opening the sliding doors.

• Childproof Door Locks

Do not put any items that stick out from the pocket in the door pockets. It may prevent the doors from properly opening or closing, and damage the vehicle.

The security system alarm activates when the tailgate, hood, or doors are forcibly opened. The alarm does not activate if the tailgate or doors are opened with the key, remote transmitter or smart entry system*. However, the alarm activates if a door is opened with the key, then the hood is opened before the power mode is set to ON.

  The horn sounds intermittently, and some exterior lights flash.

NOTICE
Leaving the key in the vehicle can result in theft or accidental movement of the vehicle. Always take the key with you whenever you leave the vehicle unattended.
