WARNING: On 4WD models, ensure transfer case is in any gear range EXCEPT Neutral before checking transmission fluid level.
NOTE: On AX4S transaxle, fluid level should be checked when fluid is cold only for purposes of ensuring fluid level is above DO NOT DRIVE mark. Once fluid is above DO NOT DRIVE mark, follow normal checking procedure.
NOTE: F350 commercial chassis may have a parking brake assembly mounted on rear of transmission. Parking brake assembly contains a separate reservoir. Fluid level must be checked separately from transmission. See PARKING BRAKE ASSEMBLY (F350)  .
