Automatic transmission fluid should not be checked under normal usage conditions.
But in severe conditions, the fluid should be changed at an authorized EQUUS dealer in accordance to the scheduled maintenance at the beginning of this chapter.
✽ NOTICE
Automatic transmission fluid color is basically red. As the vehicle is driven, the automatic transmission fluid will begin to look darker. This is normal condition and you should not judge the need to replace the fluid based upon the changed color.
CAUTION
The use of a non-specified fluid could result in transmission malfunction and failure. Use only specified automatic transmission fluid. (Refer to “Recommended lubricants and capacities” in section 8.)
