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.
Checking the Coolant
1. Check the amount of coolant in the reserve tank.
2. If the coolant level is below the MIN mark, add
the specified coolant until it reaches the MAX
mark.
3. Inspect the cooling system for leaks.
Adding Coolant

2. Turn the reserve tank cap counterclockwise and
relieve any pressure in the coolant system. Do
not push the cap down when turning.
3. Push down and turn the reserve tank cap
counterclockwise to remove it.

WARNING
Removing the reserve tank 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.
NOTICE
For vehicles used in temperatures below -22°F (-30°C), change the coolant from
the standard 50:50 antifreeze:water mix to one with added antifreeze. Consult a
dealer for more information.
NOTICE
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.
Brake/Clutch* 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.
The brake fluid reservoir is also used for your vehicle's
clutch fluid. As long as you keep the brake fluid level
as instructed above, there is no need for checking the
clutch fluid level.
NOTICE
Brake fluid marked DOT 5 is not compatible with your vehicle's braking system
and can cause extensive damage.
