M aintenance Schedule
Your Acura automobile must be properly maintained to ensure
that it is in peak operating condition and the emission levels are
within the standards set by the Federal Clean Air Act of 1970.
The following instructions and maintenance procedures are based
on the assumption that your car will be used exclusively for the
purpose for which it was designed:
1. To carry passengers and cargo within the load limits shown on
the label on the left side of the instrument panel.
2. To be driven on reasonable road surfaces within legal limits.
3. To generally be driven daily over a distance of several miles.
4. To run on unleaded gasoline of 91 Research Octane Number or
higher (86 Octane Number or higher according to the Cost of
Living Council formula).
NOTE: Failures which occur due to a lack of maintenance will not
be covered under warranty.
The Required Maintenance Schedule* specifies all maintenance
required to keep your car in peak operating condition. Work
should be done by an Acura dealer but may be done by any
qualified service facility that regularly does this type of work.
Maintenance, replacement, or repair of emission control
devices and system s may be done by any automotive repair
establishment or individual using parts that are "certified” to
EPA standards.
Make sure whoever does it completes the Maintenance Record on
page 59. All required maintenance is considered normal owner
operating cost and you will be charged for it by your dealer.
* For vehicles sold in California, maintenance operations indicated
by *3 on page 57 are recommended by the manufacturer.
Other maintenance operations are required by California regula­
tions and condition the emission warranty.
