1.Pull off the road as soon as safelypossible and shift the transmission intopark (P).
2.Leave the engine running until thecoolant temperature gauge needlereturns to the normal position. If thetemperature does not drop afterseveral minutes, follow the remainingsteps.
3.Switch the engine off and wait for it tocool. Check the coolant level.
4.If the coolant level is at or below theminimum mark, immediately addprediluted coolant.
5.If the coolant level is normal, restartthe engine and continue driving.
AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
FLUID CHECK
Have an authorized dealer check andchange the transmission fluid and filter atthe correct service interval. SeeScheduled Maintenance (page 249).
Do not use supplemental transmissionfluid additives, treatments or cleaningagents. The use of these materials mayaffect transmission operation and resultin damage to internal transmissioncomponents.
Checking Automatic TransmissionFluid
For scheduled intervals of the fluid checksand changes, See ScheduledMaintenance (page 249). Yourtransmission does not consume fluid.However, if the transmission is not workingproperly, for example, if the transmissionslips or shifts slowly, or if you notice somesign of fluid leakage, check the fluid levelas soon as possible.
Automatic transmission fluid expandswhen warmed. Obtain an accurate readingas follows :
1.Drive the vehicle approximately 19 mi(30 km) to reach normal operatingtemperature via the transmission fluidtemperature gauge on the instrumentcluster.
2.Park the vehicle on a level surface andengage the parking brake.
3.With the engine running, parking brakeengaged and your foot on the brakepedal, move the gearshift lever throughall of the gear ranges. Allow sufficienttime for each gear to engage.
4.Put the transmission in park (P) andleave the engine running.
5.Remove the dipstick, wiping it cleanwith a clean, dry, lint free rag.
6.Install the dipstick, fully seating it in thefiller tube.
7.Remove the dipstick and inspect thefluid level. The fluid should be in thedesignated area for normal operatingtemperature.
Low Fluid Level
Do not drive the vehicle if there is noindication of fluid on the dipstick and theambient temperature is above 50°F(10°C).

2024 E-Series (TE4) Canada/United States of America, enUSA, Edition date: 202210, First-PrintingMaintenanceE163740

Correct Fluid Level
Drive the vehicle 19 mi (30 km) or until itreaches normal operating temperature.Check the fluid at the normal operatingtemperature of 196°F (91°C) to 215°F(102°C) on a level surface.
High Fluid Level
Fluid levels above the safe range mayresult in transmission failure. An overfillcondition of transmission fluid may causeshift and engagement concerns, andpossible damage.
An overheating condition can cause highfluid levels.
Adjusting Automatic TransmissionFluid Levels
Note:Use of a non-approved automatictransmission fluid may cause internaltransmission component damage.
Make sure to use the correct type of fluid.You can find the type of fluid used on thetransmission dipstick, or in your Owner'sManual. See Capacities andSpecifications (page 226).
If necessary, add fluid in 8 fl oz (250 ml)increments through the filler tube until thelevel is correct.
If an overfill occurs, have a qualifiedtechnician remove excess fluid.
Note:An overfill condition of transmissionfluid may cause shift and engagementconcerns, and possible damage.
Do not use supplemental transmissionfluid additives, treatments or cleaningagents. The use of these materials mayaffect transmission operation and resultin damage to internal transmissioncomponents.

Automatic Transmission FluidFilter
Your automatic transmission has aserviceable transmission fluid filter insidethe transmission bottom pan. For serviceintervals for the automatic transmissionfluid and transmission filter, SeeScheduled Maintenance (page 249).
For transmission filter maintenance, seeyour authorized dealer.
BRAKE FLUID CHECK
WARNING: Do not use any fluidother than the recommended brake fluidas this will reduce brake efficiency. Useof incorrect fluid could result in the lossof vehicle control, serious personal injuryor death.
WARNING: Only use brake fluidfrom a sealed container. Contaminationwith dirt, water, petroleum products orother materials may result in brakesystem damage or failure. Failure toadhere to this warning could result in theloss of vehicle control, serious personalinjury or death.
WARNING: Do not allow the fluidto touch your skin or eyes. If thishappens, rinse the affected areasimmediately with plenty of water andcontact your physician.
WARNING: The brake systemcould be affected if the brake fluid levelis below the MIN mark or above the MAXmark on the brake fluid reservoir.
1.Park your vehicle on a level surface.
2.Look at the brake fluid reservoir to seewhere the brake fluid level is relativeto the MIN and the MAX marks on thereservoir.
Note:If the brake fluid level is between theMIN and the MAX marks on the reservoir, itis acceptable.
Note:If the brake fluid level is below theMIN mark or above the MAX mark, haveyour vehicle checked as soon as possible.
Note:To avoid fluid contamination, thereservoir cap must remain in place and fullytight, unless you are adding fluid.
