If the temp on the cluster gauge reads normal, then do nothing. Honda engines tend to run cool. What's the weather like where you live?

The tempeture here is currnetly 2 celsius or about 35 fahrenheit! ... when the car over heated it was about 10 celsius or about 50 fahrenheit!

Given that Honda engines generally run cool, the fan may not turn on in cold weather. Just keep a vigilant eye on the temp gauge for any signs of overheating. Post a picture of the gauge reading with the engine fully warmed up.
