Before Driving
Check the following items before you begin driving.
Exterior Checks
• 
Make sure there are no obstructions on the windows, door mirrors, exterior 
lights, or other parts of the vehicle.
•  Remove any frost, snow, or ice.
•  Make sure the hood is securely closed.
•  Heat from the engine and exhaust can ignite lammable materials left under 
the hood, causing a ire. If you’ve parked your vehicle for an extended period, 
inspect and remove any debris that may have collected, such as dried grass and leaves that have fallen or have been carried in for use as a nest by a small animal. Also check under the hood for leftover lammable materials after you or someone else has performed maintenance on your vehicle.
•  Make sure the tires are in good condition.
•  Make sure there are no people or objects behind or around the vehicle.
Interior Checks
• Store or secure all items on board properly.
•  Do not pile items higher than the seat height.
•  Do not place anything in the front seat footwells. Make sure to secure the loor  mats.
•  If you have any animals on board, do not let them move freely around in the 
vehicle.
•  Securely close and lock all doors and the tailgate.
•  Adjust your seating position, mirrors, and steering wheel properly.
•  Make sure items placed on the loor behind the front seats cannot roll under the 
seats.
•  Everyone in the vehicle must fasten their seat belt.
•  Make sure that the indicators in the instrument panel come on when you start
the vehicle, and go off soon after.
DRIVING
If the doors are frozen shut, use warm water around the door edges to melt any  ice. Do not try to force them open, as this can damage the rubber trim around the doors. When done, wipe dry to avoid further freezing.

Engine Coolant
Park the vehicle on level ground. Check the reserve tank and the coolant level in the
radiator. We recommend Honda Long Life Antifreeze/Coolant Type 2.
Checking the Reserve Tank
1. Check the amount of coolant in the reserve tank. 2. If the coolant level is below the MIN mark, add  the specied coolant until it reaches the MAX mark.
3. Inspect the cooling system for leaks.
Adding Coolant
1. Make sure the engine and radiator are cool.
2. Turn the radiator cap counterclockwise and
relieve any pressure in the coolant system. Do  not push the cap down when turning.
3. Push down and turn the radiator cap counterclockwise to remove it.
4. The coolant level should be up to the base of the 
ller neck. Add coolant if it is low.
5. Put the radiator cap back on, and tighten it fully.
6. Pour coolant into the reserve tank until it reaches the MAX mark. Put the cap back on the reserve tank.
If Honda antifreeze/coolant is not available, you may use another major brand 
non-silicate coolant as a temporary replacement. Check that it is a high quality coolant recommended for aluminum engines. Continued use of any non-Honda
coolant can result in corrosion, causing the cooling system to malfunction or fail. Have the cooling system lushed and reilled with Honda antifreeze/coolant as  soon as possible.
NOTICE

MAX MIN
Radiator cap
Removing the radiator cap while the engine is hot can cause the coolant to spray out, seriously scalding you. Always let the engine and radiator cool down before removing the radiator  cap.
WARNING
Pour the uid slowly and carefully so you do not spill any. Clean up any spills immediately; they can damage components in the engine compartment.
NOTICE
Brake Fluid
The luid level should be between the MIN and MAX marks on the side of the 
reservoir. We recommend using Honda Heavy Duty Brake Fluid DOT 3.
Pour the uid carefully. If the luid level is at or below the MIN mark, have a  dealer inspect for leaks or worn brake pads as soon as possible.
Window Washer Fluid
Check the amount of window washer luid by looking 
at the reservoir. If the washer luid level is low, ill the 
washer reservoir. Pour the washer luid carefully. Do not 
overow the reservoir.
Canadian models
If the washer luid level is low, the washer level  indicator appears (see page 27).
Do not use engine antifreeze or a vinegar/water solution in the windshield washer 
reservoir. Antifreeze can damage your vehicle’s paint. A vinegar/water solution can damage the windshield washer pump.
NOTICE

3. Slide the wiper blade out from the end with the indent.
4. Remove the retainers from the rubber blade that has been removed, and mount to a new rubber blade.
5. Slide the new wiper blade onto the holder. Make 
sure it is engaged correctly, then install the wiper blade assembly onto the wiper arm.

Tire Information
To safely operate your vehicle, your tires must be of the proper type and size, in good  condition with adequate tread, and properly inlated.
Inflation Guidelines
•  Properly inlated tires provide the best combination of handling, tread life, and 
comfort. Refer to the driver’s doorjamb label or the speciications (see page  130) for the specied pressure.
•  Underinated tires wear unevenly, adversely affect handling and fuel economy,
and are more likely to fail from overheating.
•  Overinated tires make your vehicle ride harshly, are more prone to road
hazards, and wear unevenly.
•  Every day before you drive, look at each of the tires. If one looks lower than the  others, check the pressure with a tire gauge.
•  Measure the air pressure when tires are cold. This means the vehicle has been 
parked for at least 3 hours, or driven less than 1 mile (1.6 km). If necessary, add 
or release air until the speciied pressure is reached, and then calibrate the 
system (see page 102). If checked when hot, tire pressure can be as much as 4–6 psi (30–40 kPa, 0.3–0.5 kgf/cm 2
) higher than checked when cold.
•  At least once a month or before long trips, use a gauge to measure the pressure 
in all tires, including the spare. Even tires in good condition can lose 1–2 psi 
(10–20 kPa, 0.1–0.2 kgf/cm 2
) per month.
Inspection Guidelines
Every time you inlate the tires, check for the following:
•  Any damage to tires, including bumps, bulges, cuts, splits, or cracks in the side  or tread. Remove any foreign objects and inspect for air leaks. Replace tires if  you see fabric or cord. 
•  Uneven or excessive tread wear. Have a dealer check the wheel alignment.
•  Cracks or other damage around the valve stems.
Wear Indicators
The groove where the wear indicator is located is
1/16 inch (1.6 mm) shallower than elsewhere on the  tire. If the tread has worn so low that the indicator is exposed, replace the tire. Worn out tires have poor
traction on wet roads.Example of a wear indicator mark
