Refer to the Maintenance Schedule to determine what kind of transaxle
fluid to use. See “Recommended Fluids and Lubricants” in the Index.
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 1evel.It doesn’t take much fluid, generally less
than a pint (OSL).
Don’t overfill. We recommend you use only fluid
labeled DEXR0N’-IIE or DEXRON@-111, because fluids with that
label are made especially for your automatic transaxle. Damage
caused by fluid other than DEXR0N’-IIE or DEXRON@-I11 is not
covered by your new vehicle warranty.
After adding fluid, recheck the fluid level as described under “How to
Check.”
When the correct fluid level is obtained, push the dipstick back in all
