NOTE:

Check that electrical systems such as the air conditioning
system, audio system and lightinf system are off.

NOTE:

The ATF temperature can be confirmed by using a Techstream.

NOTE:

If the ATF temperature is above 44°C (111°F), turn the ignition switch
off and wait until the fluid temperature drops to between 37 and 44°C
(99 and 111°F).

NOTE:



It is necessary to change to temperature detection mode in order to
idle the vehicle appropriately.



The ATF temperature must be between 37 and 44°C (99 and 111°F) to
accurately check the fluid level
