Proper Fluid Checks
Engine Oil
Check engine oil with the unit on a level surface, the key in the “OFF” position (if
equipped), the H30 display off (if equipped), the shifter position in “PARK” and parking
brake applied. Open side access door or hood depending on engine configuration.
Remove dipstick from crankcase, wipe it with a cloth. Insert it fully and take out it gently
again. Check the oil level by the marks on the dipstick. The oil level must be between
the “Max” level and the “Min” level. DO NOT OVERFILL.
Coolant
DO NOT remove recovery tank cap or check coolant level while engine is hot! With
engine cool, the key in the “OFF” position (if equipped), the H30 display off (if
equipped), the shifter position in “PARK” and the parking brake applied, open hood, set
hood prop and look at left side of recovery tank. The reservoir tank is translucent, so
the fluid is readily visible without removing the cap. Fluid level should be at the “Cold fill
level”.
Transmission Fluid
With unit in park and parking brake set in the “ON” position, start engine. Open side
access door. Remove dipstick from transmission case, wipe it with a cloth. Insert it fully
and take it out gently again. Check the fluid level by the marks on the dipstick. The
transmission fluid level must be between the “Max” level and the “Min” level on the
dipstick. DO NOT OVERFILL.
Brake Fluid
Check brake fluid with the unit on a level surface, the key in the “OFF” position (if
equipped), the H30 display off (if equipped), the shifter position in “PARK” and parking
brake applied. Open hood, set hood prop and locate master cylinder reservoir. Re-
move spring clips and take off lid. Brake fluid level should be at the top of reservoir.
Power Steering Fluid

(if equipped), the shifter position in “PARK” and the parking brake applied. Open hood,
set hood prop remove cap from power steering reservoir. Fluid level should be be-
tween the arrows on the indicator stick. DO NOT OVERFILL.
