push the dipstick

How to Add Fluid
Refer
to
the Maintenance Schedule to determine what kind of transmission
fluid to use. See "Recommended Fluids and Lubricants''
in the
Index.
If the fluid level is low, add only enough of the proper fluid to bring the
level up to the COLD area for a cold check or the HOT area for
a hot
check.
It doesn't take much fluid, generally
less
than a pint. Don't overfill. We
recommend you use only fluids labeled DEXR0N'-I11
or DEXR0N'-IIE,
because fluids with those labels are made especially for your automatic
transmission. Damage caused by fluids other than DEXRON@-I11 or
DEXRON@-IIE is not covered by your new vehicle warranty.
After adding fluid, recheck the fluid level as described under "How to
Check."
When the correct fluid level is obtained, push the dipstick back in all
the way; then flip the handle down to lock the dipstick in place.

checked is when the engine oil is changed. However,
the fluid in your manual transmission doesn't require changing.
How
f o
Check
Because this operation can be a little difficult, you may choose to have this
done at a GM dealership Service Department.
If you do
it
yourself, be sure to follow all the instructions here, or you could
get a false reading.
