Then, without shutting off the

engine:

1. Flip the handle up and then pull

out the dipstick and wipe it with

a clean rag or paper towel.

The automatic transmission

dipstick handle with this symbol

on it is located in the engine

compartment on the passenger

side of the vehicle.

See Engine Compartment

Overview

on page 10‑6

for

more information on location.

2. Push it back in all the way, wait

three seconds, and pull it back

out again.

3. Check both sides of the dipstick,

and read the lower level. The

fluid level must be in the COLD

area, below the cross-hatched

area, for a cold check or in the

HOT or cross-hatched area for a

hot check. Be sure to keep the

dipstick pointed down to get an

accurate reading.

4. 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.

How to Add Automatic

Transmission Fluid

Refer to the Maintenance

Schedule to determine what kind

of transmission fluid to use. See

Recommended Fluids and

Lubricants on page 11‑8.

Add fluid only after checking the

transmission fluid while it is hot.

A cold check is used only as a

reference. If the fluid level is low,

add only enough of the proper fluid

to bring the level up to the HOT area

for a hot check. It does not take

much fluid, generally less than one

pint (0.5 L). Do not overfill.
