Brake and Clutch Fluid

Check the fluid level in the reser-

voirs monthly. There are up to two

reservoirs, depending on the model.

They are:

Brake fluid reservoir (all models)
Clutch fluid reservoir

(manual transmission only)

The brake fluid should be replaced

according to the time recommenda-

tion in the maintenance schedule.

Always use Honda Heavy Duty

Brake Fluid DOT 3. 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
Heavy Duty Brake Fluid DOT 3 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 M I N and MAX marks on the side

of the reservoir. If the level is at or

below the M I N mark, your brake

system needs attention. Have the

brake system inspected for leaks or
worn brake pads.
