Check
the
fluid level only when your engine is off, the
vehicle
is
parked on a level place and the transaxle is
cool enough for you to rest your fingers
on
the
transaxle
case.
Then,
foIIow
these steps:
The manual transaxle
dipstick is located below
the brake master cylinder,
near the rear of the
transaxle case.
1. Flip the handle up and then pull out
the
dipstick and
clean it with a rag or paper towel.
2. Push it back in
all the way and remove it.
3. Check both sides of the dipstick and read the lower
level. The fluid level must be between the
ADD and
FULL marks. (Note: Fluid may appear at the bottom
of the dipstick even when the fluid level is several
pints low.)
4.
If the fluid level is where it should be, push the
dipstick back in all the way and flip
the
handle
down. If the fluid level is low, add more fluid
as
described in
the next
steps.
