G Lubricants.
If the fluid level is low, add only enough
of the proper fluid to bring. the level up
to the COLD area.for a cold-check or
the-HQT
area for a-.hot ‘check. It
doesn’t take much fluid, generally legs
than a pint. Don’t overfill. We
recommend

label are made especially
for your
automatic transmission.. Damage caused
by fluid other than DEXXO-Nq-IIE is not
covtir,ed by your-new vehicle warranty.
After adding fluid, recheck the fluid
level as described under How to Check.
When the correct fluid level is obtained,
push
the dipstick back in all the way.
