The transmission dipstick
is located near the center
of the engine compartment
and will be labeled with
this graphic shown.
See Engine Compartment
Overview
on page 5-12
for more information
on location.

Flip the handle up and then pull out the dipstick and
wipe it with a clean rag or paper towel.

Push it back in all the way, wait three seconds and
then pull it back out again.

Check both sides of the dipstick, and read the lower
level. The fluid level must be in the COLD area for
a cold check or in the HOT area or cross-hatched
area for a hot check. Be sure to keep the dipstick
pointed down to get an accurate reading.

If the fluid level is in the acceptable range, push the
dipstick back in all the way; then flip the handle
down to lock the dipstick in place.
