Maintenance Have an authorized dealer check and change the transmission fluid at the correct service interval. See Scheduled Maintenance (page 440). Your transmission does not consume fluid. However, if the transmission slips, shifts slowly or if you notice a sign of leaking fluid, contact an authorized dealer. Do not use supplemental transmission fluid additives, treatments or cleaning agents. The use of these materials may affect transmission operation and result in damage to internal transmission components. 2. Add power steering fluid to the MAX mark. Do not overfill. 3. Replace the filler cap. Turn it until you feel a strong resistance. WASHER FLUID CHECK Note: The reservoir supplies the front and rear washer systems. When adding fluid, use a mixture of washer fluid and water to help prevent freezing in cold weather and improve the cleaning capability. We recommend that you use only high quality washer fluid. For information on fluid dilution, refer to the product instructions. BRAKE FLUID CHECK Fluid levels between the MIN and MAX lines are within the normal operating range; there is no need to add fluid. If the fluid levels are outside of the normal operating range, the performance of the system could be compromised; seek service from your authorized dealer immediately. DRAINING THE FUEL FILTER WATER TRAP WARNING Do not dispose of fuel in the household refuse or the public sewage system. Use an authorized waste disposal facility. Your vehicle is fitted with a diesel fuel conditioner module located behind the fuel tank. A warning lamp will illuminate and a message will be displayed when approximately 3.38 (100 ml) of water accumulates in the module. If you allow the water level to exceed this level, the water may pass through to the engine and may cause fuel injection equipment damage. Note: To drain the fuel filter water trap, access the underside of your vehicle. POWER STEERING FLUID CHECK WARNING Do not allow the fluid to touch your skin or eyes. This could cause serious personal injury. Rinse the affected areas immediately with plenty of water and consult a physician. If the power steering fluid level is not between the MAX and MIN marks, add power steering fluid that meets the correct specification. See Capacities and Specifications (page 271). Adding Power Steering Fluid 1. Remove the filler cap. 210 Transit (TTH) Canada/United States of America, enUSA, Edition date: 03/2014, Third Printing
