ATF Level Inspection
Caution
•
The ATF amount varies according to ATF’s
temperature. Therefore, when checking the
ATF level or replacing the ATF, use a
thermometer to measure the temperature
then adjust the ATF amount to the
specified level according to the specified
temperature.
1. Park the vehicle on level ground.
2. Apply the parking brake and position wheel
chocks securely to prevent the vehicle from
rolling.

3. Adjust the length of the thermistor probe measure
to measure the same as the dipstick and hold the
probe with a paper holder. Insert into the filler tube
and measure the temperature.

4. Warm up the engine until the ATF reaches 60— 70
°C {140— 158 °F}.
Caution
•
Do not warm the transaxle by performing
stalls. This will damage the torque
converter.
5. While depressing the brake pedal, shift the
selector lever to each range (P— 1), pausing
momentarily in each range.
6. Shift back to P position.

• If the ATF level is too high or too low in hot
condition, the following problems may be the
cause.
