Maintenance and care Automatic transaxle fluid Check the automatic transaxle fluid according to the scheduled intervals in the "Service Guide". However, if the transaxle is not working properly (slipping, shifting slowly or fluid leakage) the fluid level should be checked. Adding automatic transaxle fluid Before adding any fluid, make sure the correct type will be used. This information is stamped on the dipstick. Check the fluid after your vehicle has reached normal operating temperature, which is reached after driving approximately 32 km (20 miles). Add fluid in 0.25 litre (0.5 pint) increments through the filler tube until the fluid is at the correct level on the dipstick. If an overfill occurs, excess fluid should be removed by your dealer or a qualified service technician. 141
