Pour the f luid slowly and caref ully so
you do not spill any. Clean up any
spill immediately; it could damage
components in the engine
compartment.
If the level is below the lower
mark, add f luid into the dipstick
tube to bring it to the level
between the upper and lower
marks on the dipstick.
Always use Honda Genuine ATF-Z1
(automatic transmission f luid). Insert the dipstick all the way back
into the transmission securely as
shown in the illustration.
Make sure the rubber cap on the
dipstick fits in the dipstick guide
and that you push the dipstick in
all the way.
The transmission should be drained
and ref illed with new f luid when this
service is indicated on a maintenance
message on the inf ormation display
or on the multi-inf ormation display
(depending on models).
If you are not sure how to add f luid,
contact your dealer.
