5. With the engine still idling, pull out the

dipstick, wipe it clean, and put it back.

The proper fluid level is marked on the

dipstick as follows.

Fluid hot scale A

When the vehicle has been driven and the

fluid is at normal operating temperature,

about 65

C (150

F), the level must be

between Full and Low.

Fluid cold scale B

When the engine has not been running

and the outside temperature is about 20

(70

F), the level must be between Full and

Low.

Fully insert the dipstick. When adding

fluid, inspect with the dipstick to make

sure it doesn’t pass full.

Sudden Vehicle Movement:

Shifting the shift lever without first

depressing the brake pedal is

dangerous. The vehicle could move

suddenly and cause an accident.

Make sure the brake pedal is applied

before shifting the shift lever.
