10-14 Vehicle Care

1. Locate the transmission dipstick

at the rear of the engine

compartment, on the passenger

side of the vehicle.

See Engine Compartment

Overview on page 10‑6 for more

information.

2. Flip the handle up, then pull out

the dipstick and wipe it with a

clean rag or paper towel.

3. Install the dipstick by pushing it

back in all the way; wait

three seconds, and then pull it

back out again.

4. Check both sides of the dipstick

and read the lower level. Repeat

the check procedure to verify the

reading.

5. Safe operating level is within the

HOT cross hatch band on the

dipstick. If the fluid level is not

within the HOT band, and the

transmission temperature is

between 71°C and 93°C

(160°F and 200°F), add or drain

fluid as necessary to bring the

level into the HOT band. If the

fluid level is low, add only

enough fluid to bring the level

into the HOT band. It does not

take much fluid, generally less

than 0.5 L (1 pt). Do not overfill.

6. If the fluid level is in the

acceptable range, push the

dipstick back in all the way, then

flip the handle down to lock the

dipstick in place.

Consistency of Readings

Always check the fluid level at least

twice using the procedure described

previously. Consistency (repeatable

readings) is important to maintaining

proper fluid level. If readings are still

inconsistent, contact the dealer.

Engine Air Cleaner/Filter

See Engine Compartment Overview

on page 10‑6 for the location of the

engine air cleaner/filter.

Inspect the air cleaner/filter at the

scheduled maintenance intervals

and replace it at the first oil change

after each 80 000 km (50,000 mi)

interval. See Maintenance Schedule

on page 11‑3 for more information.

If driving on dusty/dirty conditions,

inspect the filter at each engine oil

change.
