3. With the parking brake engaged and your foot on the brake pedal,

start the engine and move the gearshift lever through all of the gear

ranges. Allow sufficient time for each gear to engage.

4. Latch the gearshift lever in P (Park) and leave the engine running.

5. Remove the dipstick, wiping it clean with a clean, dry lint free rag. If

necessary, refer to Identifying components in the engine compartment

in this chapter for the location of the dipstick.

6. Install the dipstick making sure it is fully seated in the filler tube.

7. Remove the dipstick and inspect the fluid level. The fluid should be in

the designated area for normal operating temperature or ambient

temperature.

Low fluid level

Do not drive the vehicle if the fluid

level is at the bottom of the dipstick

and the ambient temperature is

above 10°C (50°F).

Correct fluid level

The transmission fluid should be checked at normal operating temperature

66°C-77°C (150°F-170°F) on a level surface. The normal operating

temperature can be reached after approximately 30 km (20 miles) of

driving.

You can check the fluid without driving if the ambient temperature is

above 10°C (50°F). However, if fluid is added at this time, an overfill

condition could result when the vehicle reaches normal operating

temperature.

The transmission fluid should be in

this range if at normal operating

temperature (66°C-77°C

[150°F-170°F]).

The transmission fluid should be in

this range if at ambient temperature

(10°C-35°C [50°F-95°F]).
