Brake Fluid
NOTICE
Brake fluid marked DOT 5 is not compatible with
your vehicle’s braking system and can cause
extensive damage.
If the specified brake fluid is not available, you
should use only DOT 3 or DOT 4 fluid from a sealed
container as a temporary replacement.
Using any non-Honda brake fluid can cause
corrosion and decrease the longevity of the system.
Have the brake system flushed and refilled with
Honda Heavy Duty Brake Fluid DOT 3 as soon as
possible.
If the brake fluid level is at or below the MIN mark,
have a dealer inspect for leaks or worn brake pads
as soon as possible.
