July 1: So it begins. Don't worry, this is not in the correct legal jurisdiction!

Checking Fluid Level

Check lubricant level at filler plug hole on side of transmission. Lubricant should be level with bottom of filler plug hole. Add lubricant as necessary to bring to correct level.

NOTE: If vehicle is equipped with a transaxle, check fluid level when transaxle is cold. If hot, fluid may flow from filler hole when plug is removed. This could result in burned hands or incorrect level readings.
