NOTICE
Recommended Engine Oil
• 
Honda Genuine 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 Honda Genuine 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.
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 back all the way 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.

MAINTENANCE
Checking the Battery
Check the battery terminals for corrosion monthly.
For jump starting, see page 112.
WARNING: Battery posts, terminals, and related accessories contain lead and lead\

compounds. Wash your hands after handling.
The battery gives off explosive hydrogen gas during normal operation.
A spark or flame can cause the battery to explode with enough force to kill or 
seriously hurt you.
When conducting any battery maintenance, wear protective clothing and a 
face shield, or have a skilled technician do it.
WARNING
Do not use engine antifreeze or a vinegar/water solution in the windshield washer 
reservoir. Antifreeze can damage your vehicle’s paint. A vinegar/water solution 
can damage the windshield washer pump.
NOTICE
Window Washer Fluid
If the washer fluid level is low, fill the washer reservoir. 
Canadian models
If the washer fluid level is low, the washer level 
indicator or a message appears.
Changing Wiper Blades
If the wiper blades leave streaks across the windshield, try cleaning them first with a 
paper towel or soft cloth and wiper fluid. If the wiper blade rubber has deteriorated, 
you should change the wiper blades.
Changing the Front Wiper Blade Rubber
1. Lift the driver side wiper arm first, then the
passenger side.
2. Push the lock tab up. 
3. Slide the blade holder from the wiper arm.
4. Slide the wiper blade out from its holder by 
pulling the tabbed end out.
5. Remove the retainers from the rubber blade 
that has been removed, and mount to a new 
rubber blade. Correctly align the rubber 
protrusion and the retainer grooves.
6. Slide the new wiper blade onto the holder from 
the bottom end. The tab on the holder should fit 
in the indent of the wiper blade.
7. Attach the wiper holder to the wiper arm until
the lock tab clicks into place.
8. Lower the passenger side wiper arm first, then
the driver side.

and can cause extensive damage.
NOTICE
Brake Fluid
The fluid level should be between the MIN and MAX marks on the side of the 
reservoir. Use Honda Heavy Duty Brake Fluid DOT 3.
Pour the fluid carefully.
