Before Performing Maintenance

Inspection and Maintenance

For your safety, perform all listed inspections and maintenance to keep your vehicle
in good condition. If you become aware of any abnormality (noise, smell, insufficient
brake fluid, oil residue on the ground, etc.), have your vehicle inspected by a dealer.
(Note, however, that service at a dealer is not mandatory to keep your warranties in
effect.)

■

Daily inspections

Perform inspections before long distance trips, when washing the vehicle, or when
refueling.

■

Periodic inspections

• Check the brake/clutch

fluid level monthly.

2 Brake/Clutch

Fluid P. 585

• Check the tire pressure monthly. Examine the tread for wear and foreign objects.

2 Checking and Maintaining Tires P. 602

• Check the operation of the exterior lights monthly.

2 Replacing Light Bulbs P. 587

• Check the condition of the wiper blades at least every six months.

Safety When Performing Maintenance

Some of the most important safety precautions are given here.
However, we cannot warn you of every conceivable hazard that can arise in
performing maintenance. Only you can decide whether you should perform a given
task.

• To reduce the possibility of fire or explosion, keep cigarettes, sparks, and flames

away from the battery and all fuel related parts.

• Never leave rags, towels, or other flammable objects under the hood.

Heat from the engine and exhaust can ignite them, causing a fire.

• To clean parts, use a commercially available degreaser or parts cleaner, not

gasoline.

• Wear eye protection and protective clothing when working with the battery or

compressed air.

• Engine exhaust contains carbon monoxide, which is poisonous and can kill you.

Only operate the engine if there is sufficient ventilation.

• The vehicle must be in a stationary condition.

Make sure your vehicle is parked on level ground, the parking brake is set, and
the engine is off.

• Be aware that hot parts can burn you.

Make sure to let the engine and exhaust system cool thoroughly before
touching vehicle parts.

• Be aware that moving parts can injure you.

Do not start the engine unless instructed, and keep your hands and limbs away
from moving parts.

Opening the Hood

1. Park the vehicle on a level surface, and set

the parking brake.

2. Pull the hood release handle under the

driver’s side lower corner of the dashboard.

The hood will pop up slightly.

3. Pull up the hood latch lever (located under

the front edge of the hood to the center)
and raise the hood. Once you have raised
the hood slightly, you can release the lever.

4. Remove the support rod from the clamp

using the grip. Mount the support rod in
the hood.

When closing, remove the support rod, and
stow it in the clamp, then gently lower the
hood. Remove your hand at a height of
approximately 12 inches (30 cm) and let the
hood close.

Opening the Hood

NOTICE

Do not open the hood when the wiper arms are
raised: The hood will strike the wipers, resulting in
possible damage to the hood and/or the wipers.

When closing the hood, check that the hood is
securely latched.

If the hood latch lever moves stiffly, or if you can
open the hood without lifting the lever, the latch
mechanism should be cleaned and lubricated.

WARNING

The hood support rod can become very hot
due to heat from the engine.

To ensure against possible burns, do not
handle the metal section of the rod: Use
the foam grip instead.

Recommended Engine Oil

Oil is a major contributor to your engine's
performance and longevity. If you drive the
vehicle with insufficient or deteriorated oil,
the engine may fail or be damaged.

This seal indicates the oil is energy conserving
and that it meets the American Petroleum
Institute’s latest requirements.

Use a Genuine Honda Motor Oil or another
commercial engine oil of suitable viscosity for
the ambient temperature as shown.

■

Synthetic oil

You may also use synthetic motor oil if it is labeled with the API Certification Seal
and is the specified viscosity grade.

• Genuine Honda Motor Oil
• Premium-grade 0W-20 detergent oil with an API Certification Seal on the

container.

Recommended Engine Oil

Engine Oil Additives
Your vehicle does not require oil additives. In fact,
they may adversely affect the engine performance
and durability.
