Always use Honda Heavy Duty
Brake Fluid DOT 3. If it is not
available, you should use only DOT 3
or DOT 4 f luid, f rom a sealed
container, as a temporary
replacement.
The rear dif f erential should be
drained and ref illed with new f luid
according to the Maintenance
Minder inf ormation. Have your
dealer replace the rear dif f erential
f luid.
The f luid level should be between
theMINandMAXmarksontheside
of the reservoir. If the level is at or
below the MIN mark, your brake
system needs attention. Have the

worn brake pads.
Check the f luid level in the brake
f luid reservoir monthly.
