during hot weather or pulling a trailer, the vehicle should be

turned off for about 30 minutes to allow fluid to cool before

checking.

1. Drive the vehicle 30 km (20 miles) or until it reaches normal operating

temperature.

2. Park the vehicle on a level surface and engage the parking brake.

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 crosshatch zone for normal operating temperature.

Low fluid level

Do not drive the vehicle if the fluid

level is at the bottom of the dipstick

and the outside temperatures are

above 10°C (50°F).

Correct fluid level

The transmission fluid should be checked at normal operating

temperatures 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.

The transmission fluid should be in

the crosshatch zone if at normal

operating temperature (66°C-77°C

[150°F-170°F]).
