marking on the oil dipstick must then be lying above the cold start mark " COLD"
- At operating temperature of the transmission(about 80。 -90。 C)
- At engine idling speed
- Loosen oil dipstick by counter-clock rotation, remove and clean it
- Insert oil dipstick slowly into the oil level tube until contact is obtained, and pull it out again.
- On the oil dipstick, the oil level must be lying in the zone " HOT"
- Insert the oil dipstick again, and tighten it by clockwise rotation
If the oil level has dropped in operating temperature condition below the " HOT" zone, it is
