WARNING
Do not use supplemental transmission
fluid additives, treatments or cleaning
agents. The use of these materials may affect
transmission operation and result in damage
to internal transmission components.
The transmission does not consume fluid.
However, if the transmission slips or shifts
slowly you should check the fluid level. If you
notice a sign of leaking fluid, contact an
authorized dealer.
Checking the Transmission Fluid Level
*
Only check the transmission fluid level when
the engine is at normal operating temprature
179°F (82°C)-199°F (93°C). Normal operating
temprature is reached after driving
approximately 20 mi (30 km).

Note: Check the fluid level with the engine
running and the transmission in park (P).
1. Make sure that your vehicle is on level
ground.
2. Rotate the automatic transmission fluid
cap in a counterclockwise direction. See
Under Hood Overview (page 308).
3. Remove the cap and dipstick and wipe
it with a clean, lint-free cloth. Replace the
cap and dipstick and remove it again to
check the fluid level.
4. Make sure that the fluid level is between
the MIN and the MAX marks. If the fluid
level is at the MIN mark, add fluid
immediately. See Adding Transmission
Fluid.
5. Replace the automatic transmission fluid
cap and dipstick. Turn it clockwise until
you feel a strong resistance.
Low Fluid Level
If the fluid level is within the minimum range
(below point A) add the correct specification
fluid to be within the hash mark area. See
Capacities and Specifications (page 379).
