Note: Transmission fluid should only be added to the transmission when it is cool to the touch.
1. Park the vehicle on level ground and turn off the engine.
2. Open the hood and locate the transmission fluid dipstick. It is usually located near the back of the engine compartment, near the transmission.
3. Pull out the dipstick and wipe it clean with a rag.
4. Reinsert the dipstick into the transmission and check the fluid level. The fluid should be between the "Full" and "Add" marks on the dipstick.
5. If the fluid level is low, add enough fluid to bring it up to the "Full" mark. Only use transmission fluid that is recommended by the vehicle manufacturer.
6. Reinsert the dipstick and check the fluid level again to make sure it is correct.
7. Close the hood and start the engine. Let the engine run for a few minutes to circulate the transmission fluid.
8. Check the transmission fluid level again while the engine is running. The fluid level should still be between the "Full" and "Add" marks on the dipstick.
It is important to maintain the correct transmission fluid level to ensure that the transmission functions properly.
