The volume of the working fluid changes depending on the temperature. Check the working fluid level when the engine is idling and the fluid temperature is normal.
Caution! Insufficient working fluid level causes slippage of friction elements of automatic transmission. Too high a fluid level can cause intense foaming, loss of working fluid and disruption of normal operation of automatic transmission.
Caution! Use only the recommended working fluid. Using any non-recommended working fluid may result in malfunction and failure of the automatic transmission.
