How
to
Add
Fluid
Refer
to
the Mainterl‘ance Schedule to determine what
kind of transmission fluid to use. See “Recommended
Fluids and Lubricants”
in
the
Index.
Add fluid
only
after checking the transmission fluid
HOT.
(A
COLD check is used only as
a
reference.)
If
the fluid
level is low, add only enough of the proper fluid
to
bring
the level up
to
the
HOT
area for a hot check. It doesn’t
take.much fluid, generally less than
one
pint
(0.5
L).

NOTICE:
-
After adding fluid, recheck the fluid level as
described under “How to Check.”
When the correct fluid level is obtained, push the
dipstick back in all the way; then flip the handle
down
to
lock the dipstick
in
place.
All-Wheel Drive
If you have an all-wheel-drive vehicle, be sure to
perform
the
lubricant checks described in this section.
However,
they
have two additional systems that
need lubrication.
Transfer Case
We recommend you use only fluid labeled
DEXRON@-111,
because fluid with that label is
made especially for your automatic transmission.
Damage caused by fluid other than
DEXRON-I11
is not covered
by
your new vehicle warranty.
When to Check Lubricant
Refer to the Maintenance Schedule
to
determine how
often to check the lubricant. See “Periodic Maintenance
Inspections’’
in
the Index.
