1. Take a short trip to warm the transmission fluid up to operating temperature, then set the car on level ground. Transmission fluid level checked probe, which is located in front of the engine compartment directly below the ignition distributor (dispenser mounted on the left side of the cylinder head). |
2. Run the engine at idle, set the selector lever to position "P" ("parking"). Remove the probe from the meter tube and wipe dry with a clean cloth or wrapping paper. Insert the dipstick into the tube until it stops, and then remove the dipstick. Determine the level of the liquid film on the situation, drawing attention to two sets of benchmarks on the dipstick. On the one hand there probe mark the upper and lower levels for cold liquid (the mark designated "cold" and deposited in the form of recesses on the edge of the probe). These tags can be defined at the level of the liquid ie 30 to 50 ?� C. On the opposite side of the probe, there are upper and lower mark "hot", applied in the form of dashes, which is determined by the level of the liquid at a temperature of 50 ?� to 80 ?� C. In heated transmission levels should be determined by the marks "hot". |
3. Add a liquid in transmission (if applicable) should be through the tube meter by inserting a funnel with a thin metal grid to avoid spilling the liquid and eliminate the ingress of impurities. It is necessary to add a liquid until the level is established between the upper and lower marks the probe for the appropriate temperature range. |
A warning The fluid level should always be below the top mark, the excess dressing prohibited.
|
4. At the end make a short trip to the liquid evenly distributed on the internal volume of the transmission, then check the level and if necessary, add a liquid. |
5. Always keep the fluid level between the upper and lower marks for the respective temperature range. Falling below the lower mark can cause various problems and even serious damage the transmission. |
