What does the maintenance Minder do?
Honda no longer has a ‘recommended maintenance time/mileage schedule’. To save you time and money Honda created the Maintenance Minder system to show the engine oil life in the information display, letting the vehicles owner know when the engine oil needs replacing and maintenance is due. Your vehicle shows engine oil life as a percentage. Your vehicle will start with 100% oil life and over time as you put miles on the vehicle it will wind down to 0% signaling the oil life is over.
How do I Operate the Maintenance Minder System?
The on-board computer continuously monitors the vehicle, your Maintenance Minder provides continuous information regarding the remaining oil life in the vehicle. You can simply press the Select/Reset knob on the information display to view your oil use progression. To return to the odometer just press the Select/Reset knob. Each time your vehicle is turned on the information center will automatically display the percentage of remaining oil life. When the on-board computer determines the vehicle has reached 15% remaining oil life it will turn the Maintenance Minder Light and codes on for you.
Along with the Wrench Symbol and the Percentage of remaining life, What doe the letter and/or a number displayed mean?
All maintenance items will be displayed in code. There is a main-code and a sub-code. When your Maintenance Minder comes on there will always be a main-code, and at times there will be a sub-code. Please refer to your owner’s manual, Honda service History booklet and the following chart to interpret the code.
