Maintenance Minder Service Codes
These codes indicate what services are due on your vehicle.
Sedan, Coupe, and Si models
*1: If a message SERVICE does not appear more than 12 months after the displ\
ay is reset, change
the engine oil every year.
*2: Models with tire repair kit
#: See information on maintenance and emissions warranty.
CODEMaintenance Main Items
A • Replace engine oil*1
B• Replace engine oil*1 and oil filter
• Inspect front and rear brakes/service as necessary
• Check parking brake adjustment
• Inspect tie rod ends, steering gearbox, and boots
• Inspect suspension components
• Inspect driveshaft boots
• Inspect brake hoses and lines (Including ABS/VSA)
• Inspect all fluid levels and condition of fluids
• Inspect exhaust system
#
• Inspect fuel lines and connections#
• Check the expiration date for TRK bottle*2
*2: If you drive in dusty conditions, replace the air cleaner element every \
15,000 miles (24,000 km).
*3: If you drive primarily in urban areas that have high concentrations of s\
oot in the air from industry
and from diesel-powered vehicles, replace the dust and pollen filter e\
very 15,000 miles (24,000 km).
*4: Continuously variable transmission (CVT) models
Driving in mountainous areas at very low vehicle speeds or trailer towin\
g results in higher transmission
temperatures. This requires transmission fluid changes more frequently\
than recommended by the
Maintenance Minder. If you regularly drive your vehicle under these cond\
itions, have the transmission
fluid changed every 25,000 miles (40,000 km).
CODEMaintenance Sub Items
1 • Rotate tires
2• Replace air cleaner element*2
• Replace dust and pollen filter*3
• Inspect drive belt
3 • Replace transmission fluid*4
4• Replace spark plugs
• Inspect valve clearance
5 • Replace engine coolant

According to state and federal regulations, failure to perform maintenan\
ce on the
maintenance main items marked with # will not void your emissions warran\

Testing of Readiness Codes
Your vehicle has “readiness codes” as part of the onboard self-diag\
nostic system.
Some states refer to these codes as a test to see if your vehicle’s emissions
components are working properly. The codes may not be read if you go through the
testing just after the battery has gone dead or been disconnected.
To check if they are set, turn the vehicle on without starting the engine\
. The
malfunction indicator lamp will come on for several seconds. If it goes \
off, the
readiness codes are set. If it blinks fi ve times, the readiness codes are not set.
If you are required to have your vehicle tested before the readiness cod\
es are set,
prepare the vehicle for retesting by doing the following:
1. Fill the gas tank to approximately 3/4 full.
2. Park the vehicle and leave the engine off for 6 hours or more.
3. Make sure the ambient temperature is between 40°F and 95°F (4°\
C and 35°C).
4. Start the engine without touching the accelerator pedal, and let it idle\
for 20
seconds.
5. Keep the vehicle in Park (P) or Neutral for manual transmission. Incre\
ase the engine speed to 2,000 rpm, and hold it there for about 3 minutes.
6. Let the engine idle with your foot off the accelerator for 20 seconds.
7. Select a nearby, lightly traveled major highway where you can maintain a speed of 50 to 60 mph (80 to 97 km/h) for at least 20 minutes. Drive on the \
highway
with the vehicle in Drive (D) or 5th gear. Do not use cruise control. When traffi c
allows, drive for 90 seconds without using the accelerator pedal. (Vehicle speed
may vary slightly; this is OK.) If you cannot do this for a continuous \
90 seconds
because of traffi c conditions, drive for at least 30 seconds, then repeat two more
times (for a total of 90 seconds).
8. Drive in city/suburban traffi c for at least 10 minutes. When traffi c conditions allow, let the vehicle coast for several seconds without using the accelerato\
r
pedal or the brake pedal.
9. Park the vehicle and leave the engine off for 30 minutes.
The readiness codes are erased when the battery is disconnected, and set\
again
only after several days of driving under a variety of conditions.
If a testing facility determines that the readiness codes are not set, y\
ou may be
requested to return at a later date to complete the test, or see your de\
aler.
