Every 32,000 km or every 2 years.
1. Park the vehicle on a level surface and turn off the engine. Apply the parking brake and turn on the mode "R". Raise the front end and place it on stands. Remove the transmission fluid level dipstick.
2. Depending on the model, you may need to remove the shield from under the engine to access the transmission drain plug. The plug is located at the base of the transmission housing.
3. Taking appropriate safety precautions, if the transmission and engine are hot, place a suitable container under the drain plug.
4. Remove the plug.
5. Wipe off the cork. When the liquid drains into the container, replace the plug and tighten to the required torque.
6. Pull out the container and install the shield (if available). Set the car on the ground.
7. Fill the transmission with fluid through the dipstick tube using a funnel.
8. When you have filled in about half of the required amount of liquid, begin to control its level. When the level reaches the mark "MIN", insert the dipstick. Paragraph 6 describes the stylus marks in detail.
9. Start the engine and bring it to idle. Depress the brake pedal and alternately engage all transmission modes, starting and ending with the mode "R".
10. Keep the engine idling for about a minute, and then (when the engine is running in this mode), pull out the dipstick.
11. Wipe the dipstick with a clean cloth and reinsert it.
12. Pull the dipstick out again and check the fluid level. It should be between the marks "MIN" And "MAX". If the level is below the mark "MIN", stop the engine and add fluid to the transmission.
13. Continue topping up, repeating the test until you reach the required level. Then put the dipstick back in place.
