2007 HONDA PILOT Oil

If necessary, add oil to bring the
level back to the full mark on the
dipsti ck (see page ).
Safely
pull off the road, and shut
off the engine. Turn on the hazard
warning lights.
Go to a service station or garage
where you can get technical
assistance. Immediately turn off all electri cal
accessories. Try not to use other
electrically operated controls such as
the power windows. Keep the engine
running; starting the engine will
discharge the battery rapidly.
If
the charging system
indicator comes on brightly
when the engine is running, the
battery is not being charged.
This
indicator should never
come on when the engine is
running. If it starts flashing or stays
on, the oil pressure has dropped very
low or lost pressure. Serious engine
damage is possible, and you should
take immediate action. Let
the vehicle sit for a minute.
Op en the hood, and check the oil
level (see page ). An engine
very low on oil can lose pressure
during cornering and other driving
maneuvers.
Start the engine and watch the oil
pressure indicator. If it does not go
out within 10 seconds, turn off the
engine. There is a mechanical
problem that needs to be repaired
bef ore you can continue driving
(see on page
).
