Remove the dipstick (yellow loop)

from the transmission, and wipe it

with a clean cloth.

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.

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.

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.
