Prope r Flui d
Have the fluid level in the
automatic transmission checked
during the regularly scheduled maintenance at your Honda
dealer.

vehicle to your Honda dealer for inspection and repair.
Transmission damage could result if you let the fluid level get too
low.

interval is not time or mileage
dependent. It will vary according to your driving habits and vehicle
usage.
Your dealer will check thetransmission fluid's condition and
life expectancy during regularly
scheduled maintenance, and
inform you at what mileage it
should be changed.
