2. Pull out the dipstick and wipe it
with a clean rag or paper towel.
3. Push it back in all the way, wait
three seconds and then pull it
back out again. Repeat the
check procedure to verify the
reading.
4. Safe operating level is within the
HOT RUN band on the dipstick.
The width of the HOT RUN band
represents approximately 1.0 L
(1.06 qt) of fluid at normal
operating temperature.
5. If the fluid level is not within the
HOT RUN band, add or drain
fluid as necessary to bring the
fluid level to within the HOT
RUN band.
6. If the fluid level is in the
acceptable range, push the
dipstick back in all the way.
Consistency of Readings
Always check the fluid level at least
twice using the procedures
described previously. Consistency is
important to maintaining proper fluid
level. If inconsistent readings
persist, check the transmission
breather to be sure it is clean and
unclogged. If readings are still
inconsistent, contact the dealer.
How to Add Fluid
In cold operation, Allison
recommends using Synthetic
Transmission Fluid approved to
Allison Transmission specification
TES-295 in areas where the
minimum ambient temperatures are
below
− 40°C ( − 40°F).
Refer to the Maintenance Schedule
to determine what kind of
transmission fluid to use. See
Recommended Fluids and
Lubricants on page 11
‑ 12 .
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 does not take
much fluid, generally less than 0.5 L
(1 pint). Do not overfill.
Notice: Use of the incorrect
automatic transmission fluid may
damage the vehicle, and the
damages may not be covered by
the vehicle warranty. Always use
the automatic transmission fluid
