A/T Fluid Check
A/T FLUID CHECKCheck fluid leakage, fluid level, fluid leakage, and fluid amount.
Check the amount under the HOT condition (fluid at 70 - 80°C (158 - 176°F) with following methods.
1. Do urban driving for approximately 10 minutes after the engine is warmed up (When ambient temperature is 20°C (68°F), fluid temperature reaches 70 - 80°C (158 - 176°F) after approximately 10 minutes of driving.)
2. Park the vehicle on level ground.
3. Apply the parking brake.
4. While the engine is idling, move the select lever slowly from "P" to "D" when depressing the brake pedal.
5. Check if the fluid level is within the specified range on the fluid level gauge (the HOT side) in P or N ranges.
CAUTION:
^When it is required to check the fluid level at low fluid temperature (20 - 30°C (68 - 86°F)) including fluid exchange, adjust to [COLD] level of the level gauge and then be sure to verify the fluid level under the above HOT condition.
^ Use paper waste to wipe fluid on the fluid level gauge.
^ Make sure to fix the fluid level gauge on the charging pipe with a stopper.
