How to Add Fluid
Refer to the Maintenance Schedule to determine
what kind of transaxle fluid to use. See
Recommended Fluids and Lubricants on page 415 .
If the fluid level is low, add only enough of the
proper fluid to bring the level into the
cross-hatched area on the dipstick.
1. Pull out the dipstick.
2. Using a long-neck funnel, add enough fluid at
the dipstick hole to bring it to the proper level.
It does not take much fluid, generally less
than one pint (0.5 L). Do not overfill.
Notice: Use of the incorrect automatic
transaxle fluid may damage your vehicle, and
the damages may not be covered by your
warranty. Always use the automatic transaxle
fluid listed in
Recommended Fluids and
Lubricants on page 415 .
3. After adding fluid, recheck the fluid level as
described under “How to Check Automatic
Transaxle Fluid,” earlier in this section.
4. When the correct fluid level is obtained, push
the dipstick back in all the way.
Engine Coolant
The cooling system in your vehicle is filled with
DEX-COOL
®
engine coolant. This coolant is
designed to remain in your vehicle for five years or
150,000 miles (240 000 km), whichever occurs
first, if you add only DEX-COOL
®
extended
life coolant.
The following explains your cooling system and
how to add coolant when it is low. If you have
a problem with engine overheating or if you need
to add coolant to the radiator, see
Engine
Overheating on page 323 .
A 50/50 mixture of clean, drinkable water and
DEX-COOL
®
coolant will:
•
Give freezing protection down to
−
34°F (
−
37°C).
•
Give boiling protection up to 265°F (129°C).
•
Protect against rust and corrosion.
•
Help keep the proper engine temperature.
•
Let the warning lights and gages work as they
should.
