Gear OilSpecified Gear OilWhen adding gear oil, use gear oil with the
appropriate viscosity and grade as shown
in the chart below.
We highly recommend you use:
API GL-4 SAE 75W-90 for manual tran-
saxle gear oil.
Manual transaxle oil (API GL-4)

(1) Oil filler and level plug
To check the gear oil level, use the follow-
ing procedure:
1) Park the vehicle on a level surface with
the parking brake applied. Then, stop
the engine.
2) Remove the oil filler and level plug (1).
3) Check the inside of the hole with your
finger. If the oil level comes up to the
bottom of the plug hole, the oil level is
correct. If so, reinstall the plug.4) If the oil level is low, add gear oil
through the oil filler and level plug hole
(1) until the oil level reaches the bottom
of the filler hole, then reinstall the plug.
