1

Add the coolant type originally equipped in your vehicle.

2

Ensure the correct automatic transmission fluid is used. Transmission

fluid requirements are indicated on the dipstick or on the dipstick handle
or as listed in the Owner Guide. Check the container to verify the fluid
being added is of the correct type. Refer to your scheduled
maintenance information
to determine the correct service interval.

Some transmission fluids may be labeled as dual usage, such as
MERCON

௡ and MERCON௡ V. These dual usage fluids are not to be used

in an automatic transmission that requires use of the MERCON

௡ type

fluid. However, these dual usage fluids may be used in transmissions that
require the MERCON

௡ V type fluid.

MERCON

and MERCONV type fluids are not interchangeable.

DO NOT mix MERCON

and MERCONV. Use of a transmission

fluid that indicates dual usage (MERCON

and MERCONV) in

an automatic transmission application requiring MERCON

may

cause transmission damage. Use of any fluid other than the
recommended fluid may cause transmission damage.

3

Approximate dry fill capacity including transmission fluid cooling

system, actual refill capacities will vary based on vehicle application and
transmission fluid cooling system (i.e. coolers size, cooling lines, auxiliary
cooler capacities). The amount of transmission fluid and fluid level
should be set by the indication on the dipstick’s normal operating range.
