On a vehicle with the brake fluid
warning lamp, the brake fluid level is monitored by a float. When the brake fluid level falls to below the "MIN" mark, the brake fluid warning lamplights up.
WARNING:
o Use only the specified brake fluid. Also, the additives in dif-ferent brands may result in a chemical reaction when mixed together, so avoid mixing differ-ent brands if possible.
o Use extreme caution in filling
the brake fluid because it is toxicand corrosive, and it can harm your eyes and damage painted surface. If the fluid gets in youreyes, flush your eyes with clean water.
CHECKING THE AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION FLUID
I120A02P-GAT (If installed) Transmission fluid in the automatic transmission should be changed at those intervals specified in the ve- hicle maintenance schedule in Sec-tion 6. NOTE: Automatic transmission fluid is a red color. As driving distance in- creases, the fluid color turns dark-ish red gradually. It is a normal condition and you should not judge the need to replace basedupon the changing color.You must replace the automatictransmission fluid in accordance with intervals specified in the ve- hicle maintenance schedule in sec-tion 6.CHECKING THE CLUTCH FLUID

1. Open the hood, being careful to
keep hands, long hair and clothing clear of any moving parts.
2. Remove the transmission dipstick, wipe it clean, reinsert the dipstickas far as it will go, then remove it again. Now check the fluid level on the dipstick. It should be in the"HOT" range on the dipstick.
3. If the transmission fluid level is
low, use a funnel to add transmis-sion fluid through the dipstick tube until the level reaches the "HOT" range. Do not overfill, otherwisethe transmission could be dam- aged. Full mark Good
I120D03P-GAT
To Check the transmission Fluid Level
Park the vehicle on level ground with
the parking brake engaged. When the transmission fluid level is checked, the transmission fluid should be atnormal operating temperature and the engine idling.
While the engine is idling, apply the
brakes and move the gear selector lever from "P" to each of its otherpositions-"R", "N", "D", "2", "L"-and then return to "N" or "P" with the engine still idling: HSR3073
