If the level is below the lower

mark, add fluid into the dipstick

hole to bring it to the level

between the upper and lower

marks.

Pour the fluid slowly and carefully

so you do not spill any. Clean up

any spill immediately; it could

damage components in the engine

compartment.

Insert the dipstick all the way back

into the transmission securely as

shown in the illustration.

Make sure the rubber cap on the

dipstick fits in the dipstick guide

and that you push the dipstick in

all the way.

The transmission should be drained

and refilled with new fluid when this

service is shown on a maintenance

message in the multi-information

display.

If you are not sure how to add fluid,

contact your dealer.

Always use Honda ATF-Z1

(automatic transmission fluid).
