HONDA 2011 Civic Hybrid - Manual (Page 298)

Check the brake fluid level in the
reservoirs monthly.
Insert the dipstick all the way back
into the transmission securely.
The transmission should be drained
and refilled with new fluid when this
service is indicated by a maintenance
message on the information display.
If you are not sure how to add fluid,
contact your dealer.
Check the fluid level several seconds
after you turn the ignition switch to
the ON (II) position. The fluid level
should be between the MIN and
MAX marks on the side of the
reservoir. If the level is at or below
the MIN mark, your brake system
needs attention. Have the brake
system inspected for leaks or worn
brake pads.
Independent of the Maintenance
Minder information, replace the
brake fluid every 3 years.
Brake fluid marked DOT 5 is not
compatible with your vehicle’s
braking system and can cause
extensive damage.
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.
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.
