How to Check Automatic
Transmission Fluid
It is not necessary to check
the transmission fluid level.
A transmission fluid leak is the
only reason for fluid loss. If a leak
occurs, take the vehicle to your
dealer service department and
have it repaired as soon as
possible.
There is a special procedure for
checking and changing the
transmission fluid. Because this
procedure is difficult, this should
be done at your dealer service
department. Contact your dealer
for additional information or the
procedure can be found in the
service manual. To purchase a
service manual, see Service
Publications Ordering Information
on page 13 14.
Change the fluid and filter at the
intervals listed in Scheduled
Maintenance on page 11 2, and
be sure to use the fluid listed in
Recommended Fluids and
Lubricants on page 11 6.

How to Inspect the Engine
Air Cleaner/Filter
To inspect the air cleaner/filter,
remove the filter from the vehicle
and lightly shake the filter to release
loose dust and dirt. If the filter
remains caked with dirt, a new filter
is required. Never use compressed
air to clean the filter.
To inspect or replace the engine air
cleaner/filter:
1. Open the hood. See Hood on
page 10 4.
2. Locate the air filter housing on
the passenger side of the engine
compartment. See Engine
Compartment Overview on
page 10 6.
