Engine Oil
Park the vehicle on level ground, and wait approximately three minutes after
turning the engine off before you check the oil.
Checking the Oil
1. Remove the dipstick (orange loop).
2. Wipe the dipstick with a clean cloth or paper
towel.
3. Insert the dipstick all the way back into its hole.
4. Remove the dipstick again, and check the level. It
should be between the upper and lower marks.
Add oil if necessary.
Recommended Engine Oil
•  Genuine Acura Motor Oil
•  Premium-grade 0W-20 detergent oil with an API Certification Seal on the
container
This seal indicates the oil is energy conserving and
that it meets the American Petroleum Institute’s
latest requirements.
Use Genuine Acura Motor Oil or another
commercial engine oil of suitable viscosity for the
ambient temperature as shown.
You may also use synthetic motor oil if it is labeled with the API Certification Seal
and is of the specified viscosity grade.

oil dipstick.

Resetting the Engine Oil Life
If you change or replace the vehicle’s engine oil yourself, you must reset the
engine oil life. Use the Info (p/q) and SEL/RESET buttons on the steering wheel
to make selections in the multi-information display.
1. Scroll to Vehicle Settings, and select it.
2. Scroll to Maintenance Info, and select it. The oil life
reset mode is displayed.
3. Select Reset. The maintenance items disappear, and
the engine oil life display returns to 100%.
Failure to reset the engine oil life after a maintenance service results in the
system showing incorrect maintenance intervals, which can lead to serious
mechanical problems.
NOTICE
Do not fill the engine oil above the upper mark. Overfilling the engine oil can
result in leaks and engine damage.
