NISSAN 2010 Versa Hatchback - Owner's Manual - Manual (Page 277)

● The fluid can be checked at fluid tempera-
tures of 86 - 122°F (30 - 50°C) using the
COLD range on the dipstick after the engine
is warmed up and before driving. However,
the fluid should be re-checked using the
HOT range.
1. Park the vehicle on a level surface and set
the parking brake.
2. Start the engine and then move the shift
selector through each gear range, ending in
P (Park).
3. Check the fluid level with the engine idling.
4. Remove the dipstick.
5. Wipe the dipstick clean with lint-free paper.
6. Reinsert the dipstick into the dipstick tube
as far as it will go.
7. Remove the dipstick and note the reading. If
the automatic transmission fluid level is
within the normal operating range, no addi-
tional fluid is required. If the fluid level is low
add fluid through the dipstick tube.
CAUTION
DO NOT OVERFILL. Use Genuine NISSAN
Matic S ATF.
NOTE:
If the vehicle has been driven for a long
time at high speeds, or in city traffic in hot
weather, the fluid level cannot be read ac-
curately. You should wait until the fluid has
cooled down (about 30 minutes) before
checking fluid level.
