NOTICE
Do not mix HCF-2 with other transmission fluids
Using a transmission fluid other than HCF-2 may
adversely affect the operati on and durability of your
vehicle's transmission, and damage the transmission.
Any damage caused by usi ng a transmission fluid that
is not equivalent to HCF-2 is not covered by Honda's
