2.
Push it back in all the way, wait three seconds
and
then pull it back out again.

of
the dipstick, and read the lower

COLD

cold check or in the HOT area or cross-hatched area
for
a
hot check.

How
to
Add
Fluid
Refer to the Maintenance Schedule to determine what
kind
of
transmission fluid to use. See “Recommended
Fluids and Lubricants” in the Index.
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 doesn’t take much fluid,
generally less than one pint
(0.5
L).
Don’t
overfill.
NOTICE:
We recommend you use only fluid labeled
DEXRON@-111,
because fluid with that label is
made especially for your automatic transmission.
Damage caused by fluid other than
DEXRON-I11
is not covered by your new vehicle warranty.

When the correct fluid level is obtained, push the
