Default Want to check my valve clearances...

Hello, I'm just wondering if you guys can give me the proper steps on checking/adjusting valve clearances on an SOHC 4-cyl (Civic). Perhaps there is a website someone can refer me to??? Thanks in advance for your help.

It is a D17A1 (2002 Honda Civic)...I've been told that with an engine that new I shouldn't have a problem, but I hear valves and just want to check them. Oh, and I have access to any tools I might need, all I need is the know-how to do it.
