To thoroughly flush the transmission,
the technician should drain and refill
it with Honda ATF-Z1 (Automatic
Transmission Fluid), then drive the
vehicle for a short distance. Do this
three times. Then drain and refill the
transmission a final time.

Insert the dipstick all the way back
into the transmission.

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

The transmission should be drained
and refilled with new fluid according
to the maintenance minder (see page

).

Check the fluid level in the brake
fluid reservoir monthly.

Replace the brake fluid according to
the maintenance minder (see page

).

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.
