Checking the Fluid Level

Prepare your vehicle as follows:

1. Park your vehicle on a level place. Keep the engine

running.

2. With the parking brake applied, place the shift lever

in PARK (P).

3. With your foot on the brake pedal, move the shift

lever through each gear range, pausing for about

three seconds in each range. Then, position the

shift lever in PARK (P).

4. Let the engine run at idle for three to ﬁve minutes.

Then, without shutting off the engine, follow these steps:

1. Pull out the dipstick and wipe it with a clean rag or

paper towel.

The automatic transmission dipstick is located toward

the back of the engine compartment, near the brake

master cylinder reservoir. The dipstick handle is a

red loop. See Engine Compartment Overview on

page 5-12 for more information on location.

2. Push it back in all the way, wait three seconds, and

then pull it back out again.

3. Check both sides of the dipstick, and read the

lower level. The ﬂuid level must be in the

cross-hatched area.

4. If the ﬂuid level is in the acceptable range,

push the dipstick back in all the way.

How to Add Automatic

Transmission Fluid

Refer to the Maintenance Schedule to determine what

kind of transmission ﬂuid to use. See Recommended

Fluids and Lubricants on page 6-11.

If the ﬂuid level is low, add only enough of the proper

ﬂuid to bring the level into the cross-hatched area on

the dipstick.

1. Pull out the dipstick.

2. Using a long-neck funnel, add enough ﬂuid at the

dipstick hole to bring it to the proper level.

It does not take much ﬂuid, generally less than

one pint (0.5 L). Do not overﬁll.

Notice: Use of the incorrect automatic transmission

ﬂuid may damage your vehicle, and the damages

may not be covered by your warranty. Always

use the automatic transmission ﬂuid listed in

Recommended Fluids and Lubricants on page 6-11.

3. After adding ﬂuid, recheck the ﬂuid level as

described under “How to Check Automatic

Transmission Fluid,” earlier in this section.

4. When the correct ﬂuid level is obtained, push the

dipstick back in all the way.
