Additives

Your Honda does not require any oil
additives. Additives may adversely
affect your engine's or transmission's
performance and durability.

Changing the Oil and Filter

Always change the oil and filter
according to the time and distance
(kilometers/miles) recommenda-
tions in the maintenance schedule.
The oil and filter collect contami-
nants that can damage your engine if
they are not removed regularly.
Changing the oil and filter requires
special tools and access from
underneath the car. The car should
be raised on a service station-type
hydraulic lift for this service. Unless
you have the knowledge and proper
equipment, you should have this
maintenance done by a skilled
technician.
