Do not attempt to check or change th e manual transmission fluid yourself.
■Continuously Variable Transmission (CVT) Fluid
Specified fluid: Honda HCF-2
■Manual Transmission Fluid
Specified fluid: Honda MTF
Continuously variable transmission models
1Continuously Variable Transmission (CVT) Fluid
NOTICE
Do not mix Honda HCF-2 with other
transmission fluids.
Using a transmission fluid other than Honda HCF-2
may adversely affect the operation and durability of
your vehicle’s transmission, and damage the
transmission.
Any damage caused by using a transmission fluid that
is not equivalent to Hond a HCF-2 is not covered by
Honda’s new vehicle limited warranty.
Manual transmission models
1Manual Transmission Fluid
If Honda MTF is not availa ble, you may use the API
certificated SAE 0 W-20 or 5 W-20 viscosity motor oil
as a temporary measure.
Replace with MTF as soon as possible. Motor oil does
not contain the proper addi tives for the transmission
and continued use can cause decreased shifting
performance and lead to transmission damage.
