Check the fluid level with the engine
at normal operating temperature.
Park the vehicle on level ground.
Shut off the engine.
Within 60 to 90 seconds, remove
the dipstick (yellow loop) from the
transmission, and wipe it with a
clean cloth.
Insert the dipstick all the way into
the transmission securely.
Remove the dipstick, and check
the fluid level. It should be
between the upper and lower
marks.
If the level is below the lower
mark, add fluid into the filler hole
to bring it to the upper mark.
Always use Honda ATF-Z1
(Automatic Transmission Fluid). If
it’s not available, you may use a
DEXRON
III automatic
transmission fluid as a temporary
replacement. However, continued
use can affect the shift quality.
Have the transmission flushed and
refilled with Honda ATF-Z1 as
soon as it is convenient.
The transmission should be drained
and refilled with new fluid when this
service is shown on a maintenance
message in the Multi-Information
Display.
To thoroughly flush the
transmission, the technician
should drain and refill it with
Honda ATF-Z1, then drive the
vehicle for a short distance. Do
this three times. Then drain and
refill the transmission a final time.
Insert the dipstick all the way back
in the transmission.
