To thoroughly flush the transmission,
the technician should drain and refill
it with Honda ATF-Z1, then drive the
vehicle 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 securely as
shown in the illustration.

The transmission should be drained
and refilled with new fluid according
to the time and distance recommen-
dations in the maintenance schedule.

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

Check the fluid level with the engine
at normal operating temperature.

Park the car on level ground. Shut
off the engine.

Remove the dipstick (yellow loop)
from the transmission, and wipe it
with a clean cloth.

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

Make sure the notch fits in the
dipstick guide and the dipstick is
down all the way.

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