 Inspecting Automatic Transaxle
Fluid Level
The automatic transaxle fluid level
should be inspected regularly. Measure
it as described below.
The volume of fluid changes with the
temperature. Fluid must be checked at
idle without driving at normal
operating temperature.
CAUTION
!
• Low fluid level causes
transaxle slippage. Overfilling
can cause foaming, loss of
fluid, and malfunction.
• Use specified fluid (page 10-2).
A nonspecified fluid could
result in transaxle malfunction
and failure.
