Loosen the drain plug on the
bottom of the radiator. The
coolant will drain through the
splash guard.
The cooling system should be
completely drained and refilled with
new coolant according to the time
and distance recommendations in
the maintenance schedule. Only use
Honda All Season Antifreeze/
Coolant Type 2. Use of any non-
Honda coolant or plain water can
result in corrosion and deposits in
the cooling system.
Draining the coolant requires access
to the underside of the vehicle.
Unless you have the tools and
knowledge, you should have this
maintenance done by a skilled
mechanic.
Turn the ignition ON (II). Set the
Climate control system to 90°F
(32°C) or turn the temperature
control dial to maximum. Turn the
ignition off.
Open the hood. Make sure the
engine and radiator are cool to the
touch.
