TRANS FLUID LIFE:If you select this item, the
percentage of remaining transmission uid life is
displayed. If you see 99% Trans Fluid Life on the
display, that means that 99% of the current transmission
uid life remains.
When the transmission uid life is depleted, the Change
Transmission Fluid message will appear on the
display. You should change the transmission uid as
soon as possible within 200 miles (320 km). Be sure to
keep a written record of the mileage and date of the
uid change so you will have it for future reference.
When you reset the Change Transmission Fluid message
by clearing it from the display, you still must reset the
transmission uid life monitor separately. For more
information on resetting the transmission uid life
monitor, seeAutomatic Transmission Fluid on page 5-22.
