If no fluid comes out, remove the
filler bolt. Slowly add Honda Manual
Transmission Fluid (MTF) until it
starts to run out of the check bolt
hole. Let the fluid run out until it
stops, then reinstall the check bolt
and the filler bolt.

If Honda MTF is not available, you
may use an SAE 10W-

30

or 10W-

40

viscosity motor oil with the API
Certification seal that says ‘‘FOR
GASOLINE ENGINES’’ as a
temporary replacement. However,
motor oil does not contain the proper
additives, and continued use can
cause stiffer shifting. Replace as
soon as it is convenient.

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

Check the fluid level in the
reservoirs monthly. There are up to
two reservoirs, depending on the
model. They are:

Brake fluid reservoir (all models)

Clutch fluid reservoir
(manual transmission only)

Check the brake fluid level in the
reservoir monthly.

Replace the brake fluid according to
the time recommendation in the
maintenance minder schedule.

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