Brake and Clutch Fluid

Check the fluid level in the reser-
voirs monthly. There are up to two
reservoirs, depending on the model.
They are:
Brake fluid reservoir (all models)
Clutch fluid reservoir
(manual transmission only)
The brake fluid should be replaced
according to the time recommenda-
tion in the maintenance schedule.
Always use genuine Honda Brake
Fluid or an equivalent from a sealed
container that is marked DOT3 or
DOT4 only. Brake fluid marked
DOT5 is not compatible with your
car's braking system.
Pour the fluid slowly and carefully so
you do not spill. Clean up any spills
immediately. Spilled fluid could
damage components in the engine
compartment.

The fluid level should be between
the MIN and MAX marks on the side

below the MIN mark, your brake
