HONDA 2009 CR-V - Manual (Page 293)

4WD model only
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.
The rear differential should be
drained and refilled with new fluid
according to the maintenance
messages shown on the information
display. Have your dealer replace the
rear differential fluid.
Replace the brake fluid according to
the maintenance messages shown on
the information display.
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.
Check the fluid level in the brake
fluid reservoir monthly.
Use Honda Dual Pump Fluid II only.
Do not use automatic transmission
fluid (ATF).
