The transmission should be drained
and refilled with new fluid when this
service is shown on a maintenance
message in the multi-information
display.

Check the fluid level with the engine
at normal operating temperature.

Insert the dipstick all the way into
the transmission securely as
shown in the illustration.

Remove the dipstick and check
the fluid level. It should be
between the upper and lower
marks.

Remove the dipstick (yellow loop)
from the transmission, and wipe it
with a clean cloth.

Park the vehicle on level ground.
Start the engine, let it run until the
radiator fan comes on, then shut
off the engine. For accurate
results, wait about 60 seconds (but
no longer than 90 seconds) before
doing step 2.
