2Refer to the dipstick for the type of transmission fluid required. Some
fluid labels may indicate dual usage such as MERCONtand MERCON
Vt. These dual usage fluids are not to be used in transmissions that use
only the MERCONttype fluid. These dual usage fluids may be used in
transmissions that require MERCONtV use.
Using a transmission fluid that indicates a dual usage (MERCONtand
MERCON Vt) in a transmission application requiring MERCONtmay
cause transmission damage. Use of any fluid other than the
recommended fluid may cause transmission damage.
