Maintenance
Always use genuine Honda All
Season Antifreeze/Coolant Type 2.
This coolant is pre-mixed with 50
percent antifreeze and 50 percent
water. Never add straight antifreeze
or plain water.
The cooling system contains many
aluminium components that can
corrode if an improper antifreeze is
used. Some antifreeze, even though
labelled as safe for aluminium parts,
may not provide adequate protection.
Removing the expansion
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 expansion tank
cap.
