Checking Fluid Levels: Notes

CAUTION: DO NOT overfill. When transaxle is cold, fluid level will rise from minimum level to maximum level on dipstick as transaxle reaches normal operating temperature.
CAUTION: If vehicle has been driven for an extended period of time at high speeds, in city traffic, in hot weather or if vehicle has been pulling a trailer, an accurate fluid level reading cannot be made until vehicle has been parked and ATF is allowed to cool for about 30 minutes.
