Checking the automatic transaxle fluid level OMC035014 G110D02MC 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. ! Keep the vehicle on 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 idle speed. 2. After the transaxle is warmed up sufficiently [(fluid temperature 158~176°F (70~80°C)], for example by 10 minutes usual driving, move the shift lever through all positions then place the shift lever in N (Neutral) or P (Park) position.
