Low fluid level

If the fluid level is below the MIN
range of the dipstick, add fluid to
reach the hash mark level. Note: If
the fluid level is below the MIN level,
do not drive the vehicle. An underfill
condition may cause shift and/or
engagement concerns and/or possible
damage.

Correct fluid level

The transmission fluid should be checked at normal operating
temperature 180°F-200°F (82°C-93°C) on a level surface. The normal
operating temperature can be reached after approximately 20 miles
(30 km) of driving.

The transmission fluid level should be
targeted within the cross-hatch area
if at normal operating temperature
180°F-200°F (82°C-93°C).
