Sudden Vehicle Movement:
Shifting the shift lever without first

about 20°C (70°F), start the engine
and inspect the fluid level after the
engine reaches operating
temperature.

l

If the vehicle has been driven for an
extended period at high speeds or in
city traffic in hot weather, inspect the
level only after stopping the engine
and allowing the fluid to cool for 30
minutes.

Fully insert the dipstick. When adding
fluid, inspect with the dipstick to make
sure it doesn't pass full.

NOTE

Inspect the fluid on both sides of the
dipstick in a well lit area for an accurate
reading.
