Check the condition of the drive
belts (two on 4-cylinder models, one
on 6-cylinder models). Examine the
edges of each belt for cracks or
fraying.
(On vehicles with A/C)

Alternator belt:
Power steering belt:
The belts should have the following
‘‘play’’ or deflection.
Check the tension of each belt by
pushing on it with your thumb
midway between the pulleys.
The dust and pollen filter removes
pollen and dust that is brought in
from the outside through the heating
and cooling system.
This filter should be replaced every
30,000 miles (48,000 km) under
normal conditions. It should be
replaced every 15,000 miles (24,000
km) if you drive primarily in urban
areas that have high concentrations
of soot in the air from industry and
diesel-powered vehicles. Replace it
more often if air flow from the
climate control system becomes less
than usual. Have the dust and pollen
filter replaced by your Honda dealer.
