Checking Fluid Level
Transmission is not equipped with a dipstick. Ensure vehicle is level, with engine running at idle and parking brake applied. Fluid temperature must be less than 86°F (30°C). Move gear selector through all gear positions, ending in Park. Let engine idle for 3 minutes and open OVERFILL screw on bottom of pan. Transmission is filled through OVERFILL screw. Fluid will seek correct level and excess should flow out from OVERFILL screw. See Fig 1 .
WARNING:
DO NOT overfill transmission. DO NOT open OVERFILL screw with engine stopped. DO NOT check fluid level if fluid is HOT; allow transmission to cool for 30 minutes before checking.
