Manual Transmission - Dodge 2016 Viper Owner's Manual

WARNING! (Continued)
• Do not allow petroleum based fluid to contaminate
the brake fluid. Brake seal components could be
damaged, causing partial or complete brake failure.
This could result in an accident.
Change Brake Fluid
Brake fluid will tend to absorb moisture from the atmo-
sphere over time. If the fluid becomes contaminated with
water, brake performance will deteriorate. Therefore, the
brake fluid must be changed at the intervals specified in
the "Maintenance Schedule." Refer to "Maintenance
Schedule" for further information. See your authorized
dealer for service.

Transmission Fluid Level Check
Check the fluid in the transmission when performing
other underbody services.
Check the fluid level by removing the fill plug located on
the left side of the transmission. The fluid level should be
approximately 1/4 in (6.4 mm) below the bottom of the
fill hole. Add fluid, if necessary, to maintain the proper
level. Refer to "Fluids, Lubricants, And Genuine Parts" in
"Maintaining Your Vehicle" for further information.
NOTE: DO NOT overfill transmission, damage can
occur.
