Check the brake fluid level in the
reservoirs monthly.

Insert the dipstick all the way back
into the transmission securely.

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

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

Always use Honda Heavy Duty
Brake Fluid DOT 3. If it is not
available, you should use only DOT 3
or DOT 4 fluid, from a sealed
container, as a temporary
replacement.

Using any non-Honda brake fluid can
cause corrosion and decrease the life
of the system. Have the brake
system flushed and refilled with
Honda Heavy Duty Brake Fluid
DOT 3 as soon as possible.

Brake fluid marked DOT 5 is not
compatible with your vehicle’s
braking system and can cause
extensive damage.

You will also see the ‘‘BRAKE
FLUID LOW’’ message on the multi-
information display when the brake
fluid level is low.

Replace the brake fluid when this
service is indicated by a maintenance
message on the multi-information
display.
