Maintenance
Check the fluid level when the engine is at normal operating temperature.
1. Park the vehicle on level ground.
2. Remove the bolts with a wrench and clips
with a flat-tip screwdri ver, then carefully
remove the under cover.
3. Remove the transmission filler bolt and
washer.
Carefully feel inside the bolt hole with your
fingers.
u Check if the fluid leve l is up to the edge
of the bolt hole.
4. If the fluid level is not up to the edge of the
bolt hole, add Honda Manual Transmission
Fluid (MTF) until it runs out of the hole.
5. Put a new washer on the filler bolt, then
reinstall the filler bolt.
u Tightening torque:
33 lbf∙ft (44 N∙m, 4.5 kgf∙m)
6. Reinstall the under cove r with the bolts and
clips.
■Manual Transmission Fluid
Specified fluid: Honda Manual Transmission Fluid (MTF)
1Manual Transmission Fluid
If Honda MTF is not availa ble, you may use the API
certificated SAE 0 W-20 or 5 W-20 viscosity motor oil
as a temporary measure.
Replace with MTF as soon as possible. Motor oil does
not contain the proper addi tives for the transmission
and continued use can cause decreased shifting
performance and lead to transmission damage.

4. Remove the side cove r, then pull out the
power plug.
5. Plug in the compressor to the accessory
power socket.
u Be careful not to pinch the cord in a
door or window.
6. Start the engine.
u Keep the engine running while injecting
sealant and air.

7.Press the inflator switch to turn on the
compressor.
u The compressor starts injecting sealant
and air into the tire.
8. Continue to add air after the sealant
injection is complete.
9. After the air pressure reaches the required
pressure, turn off the inflator switch.
u To check the pressure , occasionally turn
off the compressor and read the gauge.
1 Injecting Sealant and Air
NOTICE
Do not operate the temporary tire repair kit
compressor for more than 15 minutes. The accessory
power socket and compre ssor can overheat and
become permanently damaged.
There is an accessory power socket in the front
console panel. 2 Accessory Power Socket P. 149
Until the sealant injection is complete, the pressure
shown on the pressure gauge will appear higher than
actual. After the sealant injection is complete the
pressure will drop and then begin to rise again as the
tire is inflated with air. This is normal. To accurately
measure the air pressure usi ng the gauge, turn the air
compressor off only after the sealant injection is
complete.
See the driver’s doorjamb or the specifications in this
manual for the requi red air pressure.

3WARNING
Running the engine with the vehicle in an
enclosed or even partly enclosed area can
cause a rapid build-up of toxic carbon
monoxide.
Breathing this colorless, odorless gas can
cause unconsciousness and even death.
Only run the engine to power the air
compressor with th e vehicle outdoors.

5. Recheck the air pressure using the air only
hose (black) on the compressor.
u Do not turn the air compressor on to
check the pressure.

6. If the air pressure is
• Less than 19 psi (130 kPa):
Do not add air or continue driving. Th e leak is too severe. Call for help and
have your vehicle towed.
2 Emergency Towing P. 383
•30 psi (210 kPa) or more:
• front: 32 psi (220 kPa)/rear: 30 psi (210 kPa) or more:
Continue driving for another 10 minutes or until you reach the nearest service
station. Do not exceed 50 mph (80 km/h).

1. Place the jack under the jacking point
closest to the tire to be changed.
2. Turn the end bracket (as shown in the
image) clockwise until the top of the jack
contacts the jacking point.
u Make sure that the jacking point tab is

3. Raise the vehicle, using the jack handle bar
and the jack handle, until the tire is off the
ground.
■How to Set Up the Jack1How to Set Up the Jack
Do not use the jack with people or luggage in the
vehicle.
Use the jack provided in your vehicle.
Other jacks may not support the weight (“load”) or
their shape may not match.
The following instructions must be followed to use
the jack safely.
•Do not use while the engine is running.
•Use only where the ground is firm and level.
•Use only at the jacking points.•Do not get in the vehicl e while using the jack.
•Do not put anything on top of or underneath the
jack.
3WARNING
The vehicle can easily roll off the jack,
seriously injuring anyone underneath.
Follow the directions for changing a tire
exactly, and never get under the vehicle
when it is supported only by the jack.
