Insert the dipstick all the way back
into the transmission securely as
shown in the illustration.

To thoroughly flush the transmission,
the technician should drain and refill
it with Honda ATF-Z1 (Automatic
Transmission Fluid), then drive the
vehicle for a short distance. Do this
three times. Then drain and refill the
transmission a final time.

Always use Honda ATF-Z1
(automatic transmission fluid). If it’s
not available, you may use a
DEXRON III automatic
transmission fluid as a temporary
replacement. However, continued
use can affect the shift quality. Have
the transmission flushed and refilled
with Honda ATF-Z1 as soon as it is
convenient.

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.
