3. Check both sides of the dipstick, and read the
lower level. The fluid level must be in the COLD
area, below the cross-hatched area, for a cold
check or in the HOT or cross-hatched area for
a hot check. Be sure to keep the dipstick
pointed down to get an accurate reading.
4. If the fluid level is in the acceptable range,
reinstall the dipstick back in all the way;
then flip the handle down to lock the dipstick
in place.
Consistency of Readings
Always check the fluid level at least twice using
the procedure described previously. Consistency
(repeatable readings) is important to maintaining
proper fluid level. If inconsistent readings
persist, contact your dealer.
How to Add Automatic
Transmission Fluid
Refer to the Maintenance Schedule to determine
what kind of transmission fluid to use. See
Recommended Fluids and Lubricants on page 458 .
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 one pint (0.5 L).
Do not overfill.
Notice: Use of the incorrect automatic
transmission fluid may damage your vehicle,
and the damages may not be covered by
your warranty. Always use the automatic
transmission fluid listed in
Recommended
Fluids and Lubricants on page 458 .

described under “How to Check Automatic
Transmission Fluid,” earlier in this section.

When the correct fluid level is obtained, push
the dipstick back in all the way; then flip the
