SERVICING YOUR ENGINE
MAINTENANCE SAFETY
Safety Precautions
Carbon monoxide poisoning from engine exhaust.
Burns from hot parts.
Injury from moving parts.
Some of the most important safety precautions follow. However, we
cannot warn you of every conceivable hazard that can arise in
performing maintenance. Only you can decide whether or not you
should perform a given task.
Failure to properly follow
maintenance instructions and
precautions can cause you to be
seriously hurt or killed.
Always follow the procedures and
precautions in the owner’s manual.
Remember that your servicing dealer knows your engine best and is
fully equipped to maintain and repair it.
To ensure the best quality and reliability, use only new, genuine
Honda parts or their equivalents for repair and replacement.
Make sure the engine is off before you begin any maintenance or
repairs. This will eliminate several potential hazards:
Be sure there is adequate ventilation whenever you operate the
engine.
Let the engine and exhaust system cool before touching.
Do not run the engine unless instructed to do so.
Read the instructions before you begin, and make sure you have the
tools and skills required.
To reduce the possibility of fire or explosion, be careful when
working around gasoline. Use only a nonflammable solvent, not
gasoline, to clean parts. Keep cigarettes, sparks and flames away
from all fuel-related parts.
