Yes, that's perfectly correct. It also omits to say that one should not depress the button when applying the handbrake. On such an important issue, one would have thought this would have been included.

I think this is why in "the letter" Honda went to great lengths to stress the importance of not depressing the button, which after all, I suggest the majority of drivers, of whatever marque, do.

As previously stated, I have always maintained the instruction manual is worded ambiguously on this point.
