NorE: The items m arked * 1, *2, +3, *4 and +5 on above chan are described as folows:*1: Always use Genuine Honda Manual Transmission Fluid (MTF). Using motor oil can cause stiffer shifting because itdoes not contain the proper additives.*2: Always use Genuine Honda premium Formula Automatic Transmission Fluid (ATF). Using a non-Honda ATF can affectshift quality.+3: Use Genuine Honda cVTfluid only usingotherfluid can affect tra nsmission operation and may reduce transmission life.*4: Always use Genuine Honda DoT3 Brake Fluid. Using a non-Honda brake fluid can cause corrosion and dec.ease the lifeof the svstem.*5: Always use Genuine Honda Power steering Fluid. using any other type of power steering fluid or automatrc transmissionfluid can cause increased wear and poor steering in cold weather.
