Fluid Level Check
The fluid level is preset at the factory and does not require

adjustment under normal operating conditions. Routine

fluid level checks are not required, therefore the transmis-

sion has no dipstick. Your authorized dealer can check your

transmission fluid level using special service tools.
If you notice fluid leakage or transmission malfunction,

visit your authorized dealer immediately to have the

transmission fluid level checked. Operating the vehicle

with an improper fluid level can cause severe transmis-

sion damage.

CAUTION!

If a transmission fluid leak occurs, visit your autho-
rized dealer immediately. Severe transmission dam-
age may occur. Your authorized dealer has the proper
tools to adjust the fluid level accurately.

Fluid And Filter Changes
Under normal operating conditions, the fluid installed at

the factory will provide satisfactory lubrication for the

life of the vehicle.
Routine fluid and filter changes are not required. How-

ever, change the fluid and filter if the fluid becomes

contaminated (with water, etc.), or if the transmission is

disassembled for any reason.

All Wheel Drive (AWD) — If Equipped

The all wheel drive system consists of a transfer case and

front differential. The exterior surface of these compo-

nents should be inspected for evidence of fluid leaks.

Confirmed leaks should be repaired as soon as possible.
The transfer case fluid fill/inspection plug is located in the

middle of the rear housing. To inspect the transfer case

fluid level, remove the fill/inspection plug. The fluid level

should be even with the bottom of the hole. Use this plug

to add fluid as required.
