| 2. |
Add ATF SP-IV 700cc to the ATF injection hole.

|
| 3. |
Start the engine.
(Don’t step on brake and accelerator simultaneously.)
|
| 4. |
Confirm that the temperature of the automatic transaxle oil temperature
sensor is 50 ~ 60°C (122 ~ 140°F) with the GDS.
|
| 5. |
Shift the select lever slowly from "P" to "D", then "D" to "P" and repeat
one more at idle.
