3. Install the dipstick by pushing it back in all the
way, wait three seconds, and then pull it back
out again.
4. Check both sides of the dipstick, and read the
lower level. Repeat the check procedure to
verify the reading.
5. Safe operating level is within the HOT
crosshatch band on the dipstick. If the
uid level is not within the HOT band, and
the transmission temperature is between
160°F and 200°F (71°C and 93°C), add ordrain uid as necessary to bring the level
into the HOT band. If the uid level is low,
add only enough uid to bring the level
into the HOT band. It does not take much
uid, generally less than one pint (0.5L).
Do not over ll.
6. If the uid level is in the acceptable range,
push the dipstick back in all the way, then
ip the handle down to lock the dipstick
in place.
Consistency of Readings
Always check the uid level at least twice using
the procedures described. Consistency (repeatable
readings) is important to maintaining proper uid
level. If uid is added, it may take 15 minutes
or longer to obtain an accurate reading because of
residual uid draining down the dipstick tube.
If inconsistent readings persist, check the
transmission breather to be sure it is clean and
not clogged. If readings are still inconsistent,
contact your dealer.

{CAUTION:
You can be burned if you spill coolant
on hot engine parts. Coolant contains
ethylene glycol and it will burn if the
engine parts are hot enough. Do not spill
coolant on a hot engine.
1. You can remove the
coolant surge tank
pressure cap
when the cooling
system, including
the coolant
surge tank pressure
cap and upper
radiator hose, is no
longer hot.
Remove the coolant surge tank pressure
cap by slowly turning the pressure cap
counterclockwise about one full turn. If you
hear a hiss, wait for that to stop. A hiss means
there is still some pressure left.2. Then keep turning the pressure cap slowly,
and remove it.
3. Fill the coolant surge tank with the proper
mixture, to the FULL COLD mark.

7. Locate the vertical headlamp aiming screws,
which are under the hood near each headlamp
assembly.
The adjustment screw can be turned with
a E8 Torx
®socket.
8. Turn the vertical aiming screw until the
headlamp beam is aimed to the horizontal tape
line. Turn it clockwise or counterclockwise to
raise or lower the angle of the beam.9. Make sure that the light from the headlamp is
positioned at the bottom edge of the horizontal
tape line. The lamp on the left (A) shows
the correct headlamp aim. The lamp on the
right (B) shows the incorrect headlamp aim.
10. Repeat Steps 7 through 9 for the opposite
headlamp.
