To Check the Transaxle Fluid
Level
Park the car on level ground with the
parking brake engaged. When the
transaxle fluid level is checked, the
transaxle fluid should be at normal
operating temperature and the en-
gine idling.
While the engine is idling, apply the
brakes and move the gear selector
lever from "P" to each of its other
positions -- "R", "N", "D", "2", "L" --
and then return to "N" or "P". With the
engine still idling:
1. Open the hood, being careful to
keep hands, long hair and clothing
clear of any moving parts.
2. Remove the transaxle dipstick, wipe
it clean, reinsert the dipstick as far
as it will go, then remove it again.
Now check the fluid level on the
dipstick. It should be in the "HOT"
range on the dipstick.

Transaxle Fluid Capacity
The fluid capacity of the automatic
transaxle is 6.1 liters (1.6 DOHC)/6.7
liters (1.8 DOHC).
WARNING:
The transaxle fluid level should be
checked when the engine is at
normal operating temperature. This
means that the engine, radiator,
exhaust system etc., are very hot.
Exercise great care not to burn
yourself during this procedure.
