Fluid Level Check — Six-Speed Automatic
Transmission
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

transmission filler tube is capped and no dipstick is

provided. Your authorized dealer can check your trans-

mission fluid level using a special service dipstick. If you

notice fluid leakage or transmission malfunction, visit

your authorized dealer immediately to have the trans-

mission fluid level checked. Operating the vehicle with

an improper fluid level can cause severe transmission

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
Refer to the “Maintenance Schedule” for the proper

maintenance intervals.
In addition, change the fluid and filter if the fluid

becomes contaminated (with water, etc.), or if the trans-

mission is disassembled for any reason.
