look at the oil level on the dipstick.
The dipstick has two markings
which indicate the minimum and
maximum allowable oil level. If the
oil level is lower than the marked
area, it indicates the need for
additional oil. Push the dipstick
back down all the way after taking
the reading.
If you check the oil level when
the oil is cold, do not run the
engine first. The cold oil will
not drain into the pan fast
enough to give a true reading.
Engine Oil Additives
There are many extra engine oil
additives for sale. Your engine
should not need these extra
additives if you use recommended
quality engine oil and change it as
suggested. If you think your
engine has an oil-related problem,
talk to your Honda dealer.
Air Cleaner Filter
See your Maintenance Schedule for
change intervals. If the vehicle is
operated in dusty areas it will
require more frequent element
replacement. Your Honda dealer
can be of assistance in determining
the proper replacement frequency
for the conditions under which you
operate your vehicle.
Do not attempt to clean the air
filter. The filter is designed to
provide normal filtering
efficiency between replacement
intervals.
For maximum protection, it is
advisable to use genuine Honda air
cleaner filters as replacements.
