How
to
Add
Fluid
Refer to the Maintenance Schedule
to
determine what
kind
of transaxle fluid to use. See “Recommended
Fluids and Lubricants’’ in the Index.
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 doesn’t
take much fluid, generally less than a pint
(OSL).
Don
’t
overjiiZZ.
We recommend you use only fluid
labeled DEXR0N’-111, because fluid with that label
is made especially for your automatic transaxle.
Damage caused by fluid other than
DEXRON@-I11
is not covered by your new vehicle warranty.
After adding fluid, recheck the fluid level
its
described under “How to Check.”
When the correct fluid level is obtained, push the
dipstick back in all
the
way.
Superlift
Shock
Absorbers (Option)
If
you
have this option, you can level your vehicle for
different loads. As you need to, add air to the rear shock
absorbers through the air vale, located next to the fuel
filler cap behind the fuel filler door. Always keep a
minimum pressure of 10- 15 psi
(70-
105 kPa).
After you load your vehicle, you can add pressure until
the rear gets back to its normal riding height, but don’t
go above
90
psi
(620
Wa).
I
NOTICE:
Do
not use superlifts to raise your vehicle above
its normal riding height. You can damage your
superlifts or other parts if you drive that way
for
long periods.
