and amber indicators are most critical. Blue and green indicators are used for gen\
eral information.
Malfunction Indicators
These are the most critical indicators. If they come on and stay lit whi\
le driving or at any other time, there may be a problem. See your dealer if necessary.

The brake fluid is low, or the brake system has a problem. Press the brake pedal lightly to check pedal pressure. If normal, check the brake flui\
d level when you stop. If abnormal, take immediate action. If necessary, downshift
the transmission to slow the vehicle using engine braking. Have your vehicle
repaired immediately.
Low oil pressure
Engine oil pressure is low. Stop in a safe place. Open the hood. Check the oil level, and add oil if necessary (see page 143). If the indicator does not turn off,
have your vehicle repaired immediately.

AINTENANCE
Engine Coolant
Park the vehicle on level ground. Check the reserve tank and the coolant\
level in the
radiator. We recommend Honda Long Life Antifreeze/Coolant Type 2.
n
Checking the Reserve Tank
1.
Remove the engine compartment cover.
2.
Check the amount of coolant in the reserve tank.
3.
If the coolant level is below the MIN mark, add the
specified coolant until it reaches the MAX mark.
4.
Inspect the cooling system for leaks.
MAX
MIN
If temperatures consistently below −22°F (−30°C) are expec\
ted, the coolant mixture
should be changed to a higher concentration. Consult a dealer for detail\
s for more
information.
NOTICE
n
Adding Coolant
1.
Make sure the engine and radiator are cool.
2.
Remove the engine compartment cover.
3.
Turn the radiator cap counterclockwise and relieve
any pressure in the coolant system. Do not push
the cap down when turning.
4.
Push down and turn the radiator cap
counterclockwise to remove it.
5.
The coolant level should be up to the base of the
filler neck. Add coolant if it is low.
6.
Put the radiator cap back on, and tighten it fully.
7.
Pour coolant into the reserve tank until it reaches
the MAX mark. Put the cap back on the
reserve tank.
Radiator
cap
Removing the radiator cap while the engine is hot can cause the coolant \
to spray out, seriously scalding you.
Always let the engine and radiator cool down before removing the
radiator cap.
WARNING
Pour the fluid slowly and carefully so you do not spill any. Clean up any spills
immediately; they can damage components in the engine compartment.
NOTICE
Checking the Battery
The battery condition is monitored by the sensor on the negative termina\
l. If there is a
problem with the sensor, a message appears on the multi-information display. Have your
vehicle checked by a dealer.
For jump starting, see page 126.
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
WARNING: Battery posts, terminals, and related accessories contain lead and lead\

compounds. Wash your hands after handling.
Window Washer Fluid
If the washer fluid level is low, fill the washer reservoir. You can check the level by
looking at the reservoir, or a message* will appear on the MID.
Pour the washer fluid carefully. Do not overflow the reservoir.
Do not use engine antifreeze or a vinegar/water solution in the windshie\
ld washer
reservoir. Antifreeze can damage your vehicle’s paint. A vinegar/water solution can
damage the windshield washer pump.
NOTICE
Brake Fluid
The fluid level should be between the MIN and MAX marks on the side of\
the reservoir.
We recommend using Honda Heavy Duty Brake Fluid DOT 3.
Pour the fluid carefully.
If the fluid level is at or below the MIN mark, have a dealer
inspect for leaks or worn brake pads as soon as possible.
Brake reservoir
MAX
MIN
Brake fluid marked DOT 5 is not compatible with your vehicle’s braking system and can
cause extensive damage.
