Brake and Clutch Fluid
Brake Fluid
Always use Genuine Honda DOT 3
brake fluid. If it is not available, you
should use only DOT 3 or DOT 4
fluid, from a sealed container, as a
temporary replacement. However,
the use of any non-Honda brake fluid
can cause corrosion and decrease
the life of the system. Have the
brake system flushed and refilled
with Honda DOT 3 brake fluid as
soon as possible.
Brake fluid marked DOT 5 is not
compatible with your car's braking
system and can cause extensive
damage.
Brake System
The fluid level should be between
the MIN and MAX marks on the side
of the reservoir. If the level is at or
below the MIN mark, your brake
system needs attention. Have the
brake system inspected for leaks or
worn brake pads.
Anti-lock 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 indicates a possible
problem in the ABS. Have the dealer
inspect the system as soon as
possible.
