Your Honda 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 A c t * * .
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 driver's door jamb.
2. To be driven on reasonable road surfaces within legal limits.
3. To generally be driven daily over a distance of several miles
(kilometers).
4. To use gasoline from pumps labeled unleaded, with a pump
octane number of 86 or higher.
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 a Honda dealer but may be done by any qualified service
facility or individual who is competent in this type of work.
US Cars:
Maintenance, replacement, or repair of emission control devices
and systems may be done by any automotive repair establishment
or individual using parts that are "certified" to EPA standards.
After the maintenance has been done, be sure to have your servic-
ing dealer complete the Maintenance Record on pages

—
115
. 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

are recommended by the manufacturer. Other
maintenance operations are required by California regulations and
condition the emission warranty.
