Automatic Transmission Fluid

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

1. Park the vehicle on level ground.

Shut off the engine.

2. Remove the dipstick (yellow loop)

from the transmission and wipe it

with a clean cloth.

3. Insert the dipstick all the way into

the transmission.

4. Remove the dipstick and check

the fluid level. It should be
between the upper and lower

marks.

5. If the level is below the lower

mark, add fluid to bring it to the
upper mark. Remove the fill plug
to add fluid. Always use Honda

Premium Formula Automatic

Transmission Fluid (ATF). If it is

not available, you may use a
DEXRON

®

III automatic

transmission fluid as a temporary
replacement. However, continued
use can affect shift quality. Have

the transmission drained and

refilled with Honda ATF as soon

as it is convenient.

6. Insert the dipstick all the way back

in the transmission.

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.
