If the level is below the lower
mark, add fluid into the filler hole
to bring it to the level between the
upper and lower marks.

Pour the fluid slowly and carefully
so you do not spill any. Clean up
any spill immediately; it could
damage components in the engine
compartment.

Always use Acura ATF-Z1
(automatic transmission fluid).

Insert the dipstick all the way back
into the transmission securely as
shown in the illustration.

Make sure the rubber cap on the
dipstick fits in the dipstick guide
and that you push the dipstick in
all the way.

The transmission should be
drained and refilled with new fluid
when this service is shown on a
maintenance message in the multi-
information display.

If you are not sure how to check
and add fluid, contact your dealer.
