How
to
Add
Fluid
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
overfill.
We
recommend you
use
only
fluid
labeled DEXRON@-111, because fluid with that label
is
made
especially
for
your automatic transaxle. Damage caused
by
fluid other
than DEXRON@-111
is
not
covered by your new vehicle warranty.

After adding fluid, recheck the fluid lcvel
as
described under “How
to
Check.”

When
the
correct fluid level
is
obtained,
push
the dipstick back
in
all
the way.
How
to Reset Transaxle Fluid Change Indicator:
Your vehicle
is
equipped with
a
transaxle
fluid
change indicator. A
CHANGE
TRANS
FLUID
message
will
display
on
the
Information
Center when the powertrain computer determines that the transaxle fluid
needs to be changed or at each
100,000
miles
(160
000
krn)
interval,
whichever occurs first. When
this
message appears, change the transaxle
fluid and reset the transaxle fluid life indicator
as
follows:
1.
Turn the key ON with
the
engine stopped.
2.
Press and hold the
OFF
and REAR
DEFOG
buttons
on
the climate
control simultaneously until
the
TRANS
FLUID
RESET message
appears
in
the Information Center (between
five
and
20
seconds).
