Maintenance Schedule
Your authorized Honda dealer knows your car best and can provide competent, efficient service.However, service at a dealer is not
mandatory to keep your warrantiesin effect. Maintenance may be done
by any qualified service facility or person who is skilled in this type of automotive service. Keep all the
receipts as proof of completion, and
have the person who does the work
fill out the Maintenance Record. Check your warranty booklet for
more information. We recommend the use of Genuine
Acura parts and fluids whenever you have maintenance done. These aremanufactured to the same high-quality standards as the original
components, so you can be confidentof their performance and durability.

regulations, failure to performmaintenance on the items marked

recommended time or mileage
