Checking the Fluid Level
Prepare your vehicle as follows:
1. Park your vehicle on a level place.
2. Warm the engine to normal operating
temperature until the electric radiator fan turns
on at least once.
3. With the parking brake applied, place the shift
lever in PARK (P).
4. 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).
Then, turn off the engine and follow these steps:
The transaxle fluid dipstick handle is the black loop
near the rear of the engine compartment, toward
the center.
1. Pull out the dipstick and wipe it with a clean
rag or paper towel.
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 between
the upper mark and the lower mark.
4. If the fluid level is in the acceptable range,
push the dipstick back in all the way.
