Brake Fluid
Check the fluid level in the reservoirs
monthly. There are three reservoirs:
Brake system, Anti-lock brake
system, and clutch (5-speed transmis-
sion only). The brake fluid of the
brake and Anti-lock brake systems
should be replaced every 2 years or
30,000 miles (48,000 km).
Brake System
The fluid should be between the M I N
and MAX marks on the side of the
reservoir. If it is at or below the M I N
mark, it is an indication that your
brake system needs attention. Have
the brake system inspected for leaks
or worn brake pads.
If you add brake fluid to bring it up to
the MAX mark, use Genuine Honda
Brake Fluid or an equivalent that is
marked DOT3 or DOT4 only. Brake
fluid marked DOT5 is not compat-
ible with your car's braking system.
