Maintenance Schedule
The Required Maintenance
Schedule specifies how often you
should have your car serviced
and what things need attention. It
is essential that your car be
serviced as scheduled to retain
its high level of safety,
dependability, and emission
control performance.
The services and time or mileage
intervals shown in the
maintenance schedule assume
you will use your car as normal
transportation for passengers and
their possessions. You should:
Avoid exceeding your car's
load limit. This puts excess
strain on the engine, brakes,
and many other parts of your
car. The load limit is shown on
the label in the glove box.
Operate your car on
reasonable roads within the
legal speed limit.
Drive your car regularly over a
distance of several miles
(kilometers).
Always use unleaded gasoline
with a pump octane number of
86 or higher.
Your authorized Honda dealer
knows your car best, and can
provide competent, efficient
service. However, service at a
dealer is not mandatory to keep
your warranties in effect.
Maintenance may be done by any
qualified service facility or person
who is skilled in this type of
automotive service. Keep all the
receipts as proof of completion,
and have the person who does
the work fill out the maintenance
record on page
111
. Check your
warranty booklet for more
information.
We recommend the use of
Genuine Honda parts and fluids
or their equivalent whenever you
have maintenance done. These
are the same high-quality items
that went into your car when it
was new, so you can be sure they
fit and perform flawlessly.
U.S. Cars:
Maintenance, replacement or re-
pair of emission control devices
and systems may be done by any
automotive repair establishment
or individual using parts that are
"certified" to EPA standards.
Vehicles sold in California have
slightly different maintenance
requirements. These are noted in
the Required Maintenance
Schedule. Other maintenance
operations are required by
California regulations, and
condition the emission warranty.
