Checking the Automatic
Transaxle Fluid Level
G110C01JM-GAT
Transaxle Fluid Capacity
The fluid capacity of the automatic
transaxle is 7.8 liters (8.2 U.S. quarts).
WARNING:
The transaxle fluid level should be
checked when the engine is at
normal operating temperature. This
means that the engine, radiator,
exhaust system etc., are very hot.
Exercise great care not to burn
yourself during this procedure.
The automatic transaxle fluid level
should be checked regularly.
Keep the vehicle on the level ground
with the parking brake applied and
check the fluid level according to the
following procedure.
1. Place the shift lever in N (Neutral)
position and confirm the engine is
running at normal idle speed.
2. After the transaxle is warmed up
sufficiently (fluid temperature
70~80°C (158~176°F)), for example
by 10 minutes usual driving, move
the shift lever through all positions
then place the shift lever in N (Neu-
tral) or P (Park) position.

range on the level gauge. If the fluid
level is lower, add the specified fluid
from the fill hole. If the fluid level is
higher, drain the fluid from the drain
hole.
