How to Add Fluid
Refer to the Maintenance Schedule to determine what
kind of transaxle 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 into the cross-hatched area,on
the dipstick.
1. Pull out the dipstick.
2. Using a long-neck funnel, add enough fluid at the
dipstick hole to bring it to the proper level. It doesn't
take much fluid, generally less than a pint ( 0 . 5 L ) .
Don't overjill. We recommend you use only fluid
labeled DEXRON@-III, because fluid with that label
is made especially for your automatic transaxle.
Damage caused by fluid other than DEXRON@-III
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.
