Maintenance Sub Items
1
Rotate tires, and check tire inflation and condition
 
?
Follow the pattern shown in the Owner's Manual.
2
Replace air cleaner element
 
?
If the vehicle is driven primarily in dusty conditions, replace every 15,000 miles (24,000 km).
 
Replace dust and pollen filter
 
Replace filter whenever airflow from the heating and air conditioning system is less than normal.
If the vehicle is driven mostly in urban areas that have high concentrations of soot in the air from industry and from diesel-powered vehicles, replace every 15,000 miles (24,000 km).
 
Inspect drive belt
 
?
Look for cracks and damage, then check the position of drive belt auto-tensioner indicator.
3
Replace CVT fluid
 
Driving in mountainous areas at very low vehicle speeds or trailer towing results in higher transmission temperatures. This requires transmission fluid changes more frequently than recommended by the Maintenance Minder. If the vehicle is regularly driven under these conditions, have the transmission fluid changed every 25,000 miles (40,000 km).
Use Honda HCF-2.
NOTE: Using the wrong type of fluid will damage the transmission.
