Checking Fluid Level

1. Drive the vehicle to allow transmission fluid to reach operating temperature of 140-176°F.
2. Park vehicle on a level surface, then with engine idling and selector lever in park, remove dipstick and check fluid level.
3. Fluid level will vary between the HOT mark (140-176°F), and COOL mark (68-104°F), depending on engine temperature.
4. Add either Subaru ECVT, or Dexron II automatic transmission fluid as necessary to bring level within limits.
