Cooling System

Adding Engine Coolant

If the expansion tank is completely
empty, add coolant to bring it up to
the MAX line. Inspect the cooling

system for leaks. This coolant should
always be a mixture of 50 percent

antifreeze and 50 percent water.
Never add straight antifreeze or
plain water.

Always use Genuine Honda
Antifreeze/Coolant. If it is not

available, you may use another
major-brand non-silicate coolant as a

temporary replacement. Make sure it

is a high-quality coolant
recommended for aluminum engines.
However, continued use of any non-
Honda coolant can result in
corrosion, causing the cooling

system to malfunction or fail. Have

the cooling system flushed and

refilled with Honda antifreeze/
coolant as soon as possible.

Maintenance

EXPANSION TANK

Removing the expansion tank

cap while the engine is hot can
cause the coolant to spray out,

seriously scalding you.

Always let the engine and

radiator cool down before
removing the expansion tank

cap.
