Sorry Steve... I didn't understand your original question.
Yes, it's referring to the "Start Clutch Pressure Control Calibration Procedure."
This is done by driving the vehicle (for those of us not equipped with special Honda diagnostic tools).
Procedure:
1. Warm up the engine to normal operating temperature.
2. Shut off engine.
3. Restart engine, then immediately turn the headlights on.
4. Drive the vehicle in the "D" position until the vehicle reaches 37
mph (60 km/h), then release the accelerator and decelerate without pressing the brake pedal for more than 5 seconds.
Your done!
Now here's the interesting part...
I'm not sure this procedure is absolutely needed unless you remove *both* the 12 volt battery and the IMA battery. The shop manual doesn't seem to be clear on this point. Now why do I think this? Well, I've disconnected the 12 volt battery on my HCHII several times, and I've only done the above procedure once. Honestly I couldn't tell any difference in the way the transmission operated afterwards. But better safe than sorry though and do the procedure.
