Brake and Clutch Fluid
Brake System
The fluid should be between the
MIN and MAX marks on the side of
the reservoir. If the level is at or
below the MIN mark, it is an
indication that your brake system
needs attention. Have the brake
system inspected for leaks or worn
brake pads.
If you add brake fluid to bring it up
to the MAX mark, use Genuine
Honda Brake Fluid or an equivalent
from a sealed container that is
marked DOT3 or DOT4 only. Brake
fluid marked DOT5 is not compatible
with your car's braking system.
Clutch System
The fluid should be between the
MIN and MAX marks on the side of
the reservoir. If it is not, add brake
fluid to bring it up to that level. Use
the same DOT3 or DUT4 brake fluid
specified for the brake system.
Low fluid level can indicate a leak in
the clutch system. Have this system
inspected as soon as possible.
