shown in the illustration.

Insert the dipstick all the way into
the transmission as shown.

Remove the dipstick and check
the fluid level. It should be
between the upper and lower
marks.

The transmission should be drained
and refilled with new fluid when this
service is shown by a maintenance
message on the multi-information
display.

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.

If you are not sure how to add fluid,
contact your dealer.

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.

Always use Honda Genuine ATF-Z1
(automatic transmission fluid).
