er ’s Manual Supplement”. When changing
the automatic transmission fluid, use only

optimum transaxle performance.
Notice: Using automatic transmission
fluid other than “Toyota Genuine ATF

shift quality, locking up of your trans-
mission accompanied by vibration, and
ultimately damage the automatic trans-
mission of your vehicle.
