8. Add 1.89L or 2.83L (2 qt or 3 qt) of transmission fluid into the transmission fluid pan. Stop the process by releasing the air pressure and removing
the air nozzle from the end of the hose.
9. NOTE: Engine idle speed is approximately 650 rpm.
Using the scan tool, start and run the engine until the transmission fluid temperature is between 27° C-49° C (80° F-120° F).
10. Inspect the transmission fluid level in the special tool. If the fluid drains back into the canister, the transmission is full. If no transmission fluid
drains back, more transmission fluid will need to be added. Repeat Steps 9 and 10.
11. Once the transmission is full, place a hand vacuum pump on the open end of the vacuum/pressure hose on the special tool and apply vacuum to the
system. This will pull out any extra fluid trapped in the system and direct it into the container.
12. Allow the transmission fluid to drain. When the transmission fluid comes out as a thin stream or drip, the transmission fluid is at the correct level.
13. Reinstall the small (center) transmission fluid level indicating plug.
