Change automatic transmission fluid only
as necessary. Generally, it is necessary to change
automatic transmission fluid only if your
vehicle is driven under one of the Special

optimum transaxle performance.
Notice: Using automatic transmission
fluid other than “Genuine ATF Type T
IV” may cause deterioration in shift
quality, locking up of your transmission
accompanied by vibration, and ultimate-
ly damage the automatic transmission
of your vehicle. BRAKES
