Engine Oil, Cooling System
If you change your own oil, please
dispose of the used oil properly. Put
it in a sealed container and take it to
a recycling center. Do not discard it
in a trash bin or dump it on the
ground.
The oil and filter should be changed
every 6 months or 12,000 km (7,500
miles), whichever comes first. Under
severe driving conditions, they
should be changed every 3 months
or 6,000 km (3,750 miles). See page
134 for a description of severe
driving conditions.
Checking the Engine Coolant
Level
Check the level of the engine coolant
by looking at the radiator reserve
tank next to the battery. If the level
is at or below the MIN line, add
coolant to bring it up to the MAX line.
This coolant should always be a
mixture of 50% antifreeze and 50%
water. Never add straight antifreeze
or plain water.
Always use Genuine Honda Anti-
freeze/Coolant. The cooling system
contains many aluminum compo-
nents which can corrode if an
improper antifreeze is used. Some
antifreeze, even though labeled as
safe for aluminum parts, may not
provide adequate protection.
