Quick Answer
Air Cond Compressor Oil
2.70 OZS. (0.07 L) — PAG SP-10
Automatic Transmission Fluid
3.00 QTS. (2.83 L) — HONDA CVT Fluid Note: DO NOT mix Honda CVTF with other transmission fluids. Using a transmission fluid other than Honda CVTF may adversely affect the operation and durability of your vehicle's transmission, and damage the transmission. Any damage caused by using a transmission fluid that is not equivalent to Honda CVTF is not covered by Honda's new vehicle warranty.
Brake Fluid
— HONDA Heavy Duty Brake Fluid DOT 3 Note: If DOT 3 Brake Fluid is not available, then DOT 4 or DOT4+ is acceptable. Brake fluid marked DOT 5 is not compatible with your vehicle’s braking system and can cause extensive damage.
Engine Coolant (Automatic CVT Trans)
1.15 GALS. (4.35 L) — HONDA Long-Life Antifreeze/Coolant Type 2 Note: This coolant is pre-mixed with 50/50 antifreeze and water. Never add straight antifreeze or plain water. Change including the remaining 0.46 qt. in the reserve tank.
Engine Oil
3.60 QTS. (3.4 L) — Genuine HONDA Motor Oil 0W-20 or API premium grade - SAE 0W-20 Detergent Oil Note: Your vehicle does not require oil additives. In fact, they may adversely affect the engine performance and durability.
