With the vehicle on a level surface, start the engine and move
the gearshift lever through all of the gear ranges allowing
sufficient time for each position to engage. Securely latch the
gearshift lever in the P (Park) position, fully set the parking
brake and leave the engine running.

Wipe off the dipstick cap, pull the dipstick out and wipe the
indicator end clean. Put the dipstick back into the filler tube and
make sure it is fully seated. Pull the dipstick out and read the
fluid level.

When checking fluid at normal operating temperature, the fluid
level should be within the crosshatched area on the dipstick.

NOTE: Your vehicle should not be driven until some fluid
has been added if the fluid level is below the bottom
hole on the dipstick and the outside temperature is
above 50˚F (10˚C). Add only enough fluid to bring the
level above the bottom hole. The fluid level should be
rechecked at normal operating temperature.

If the vehicle has not been driven and the fluid level is above
the bottom hole on the dipstick, do not add fluid. Recheck the
fluid level after your vehicle has reached normal operating
temperature.
