Lubrication Points
\_For the details of lubrication points and type of lubricants to be applied, refer to the illustrated index and various work pro-
cedures (such as Assembly/Reassembly, Replacement, Overhaul, Installation, etc.) contained in each section.
*1: Always use Genuine Honda Manual Transmission Fluid (MTF). Using motor oil can cause stiffer shifting because it
does not contain the proper additives.*2: Always use Honda ATF-Z1 (ATF). Using a non-Honda ATF can affect shift quality.*3: Always use Genuine Honda DOT 3 Brake Fluid. Using a non-Honda brake fluid can cause corrosion and decrease thelife of the system.*4: Always use Genuine Honda Power Steering Fluid. Using any other type of power steering fluid or automatic transmis-sion fluid can cause increase wear and poor steering in cold weather.i
