3. Insert the dipstick all the way into
the transmission.
Make sure the rubber cap fits in
the dipstick guide and the dipstick
is down all the way.
4. Remove the dipstick and check
the fluid level. It should be
between the upper and lower
marks.
5. If the level is below the lower
mark, remove the fill plug and add
fluid into the tube to bring it to the
upper mark.
Pour the fluid slowly and carefully
so you do not spill. Clean up any
spill immediately; it could damage
components in the engine
compartment.
Always use Honda ATF-Z1
(Automatic Transmission Fluid). If
it's not available, you may use a
DEXRON III automatic
transmission fluid as a temporary
replacement. However, continued
use can affect the shift quality. Have
the transmission flushed and refilled
with Honda ATF-Z1 as soon as it is
convenient.
Transmission Fluid
To thoroughly flush the transmission,
the technician should drain and refill
it with Honda ATF-Z1 (Automatic
Transmission Fluid), then drive the
vehicle for a short distance. Do this
three times. Then drain and refill the
transmission a final time.
