2. Flip the handle up, and then pull out the
dipstick and wipe it with a clean rag or
paper towel.
3. Install the dipstick by pushing it back in all
the way, wait three seconds, and then pull it
back out again.
4. Check both sides of the dipstick, and read
the lower level. Repeat the check procedure
to verify the reading.
5. Safe operating level is within the HOT
crosshatch band on the dipstick. If the fluid
level is not within the HOT band, and the
transmission temperature is between 160°F
and 200°F (71°C and 93°C), add or drain fluid
as necessary to bring the level into the HOT
band. If the fluid level is low, add only enough
fluid to bring the level into the HOT band.
It does not take much fluid, generally less
than one pint (0.5L). Do not overfill.
6. 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.
