Maintaining Transmission
Fluid Level
IMPORTANT: Be sure to push dipstick all the way
down into dipstick tube when checking fluid
level.
1. Remove dipstick to check transmission fluid lev-
el. Fluid level may be over the full mark because
fluid from the cooler and lines has drained back
into the transmission. If fluid level is low, add the
specified fluid through the dipstick hole until full
mark on dipstick is reached. DO NOT OVER-
FILL.
