Check the fluid level with the engine
at normal operating temperature.
Remove the dipstick (yellow loop)
from the transmission and wipe it
with a clean cloth.
Insert the dipstick into the
transmission. Make sure the notch
in the rubber cap fits in the
dipstick guide and that you push
the dipstick in all the way.
Remove the dipstick and check
the fluid level. It should be
between the upper and lower
marks.
Park the car on level ground. Shut
off the engine.
If the level is below the lower
mark, add fluid into the tube to
bring it to the upper mark. Always
use Honda ATF-Z1 (Automatic
Transmission Fluid). If it is not
available, you may use a
DEXRON
III automatic
transmission fluid as a temporary
replacement. However, continued
use can affect shift quality. Have
the transmission flushed and
refilled with Honda ATF-Z1 as
soon as it is convenient.
To thoroughly flush the
transmission, the technician
should drain and refill it with
Honda ATF-Z1 (Automatic
Transmission Fluid), then drive
the vehicle a short distance. Do
this three times. Then drain and
refill the transmission a final time.
