Check the cooling system compo-
nents, such as the radiator, coolant
reservoir, hoses and connections for
leakage and damage. Replace any

✽ ✽ NOTICE
Automatic transaxle fluid colour is
basically red.

matic transaxle fluid will begin to
look darker. It is normal condition

replace the fluid based upon the
changed colour.

could result in transaxle mal-
function and failure.
Use only specified automatic
transaxle fluid. (Refer
