Automatic Transmission Fluid - Ford 1996 Aerostar Manual

Batteries normally produce explosive gases
which can cause personal injury.
Therefore, do not allow flames, sparks or
lit tobacco to come near the battery. When
charging or working near a battery, always
cover your face and protect your eyes, and
also provide ventilation.
Batteries contain sulfuric acid which burns
skin, eyes, and clothing.
If the acid touches someone's skin, eyes, or
clothing, immediately flush the area with water
for at least 15 minutes. If someone swallows the
acid, have him or her drink lots of milk or water
first, then Milk of Magnesia, a beaten egg, or
vegetable oil. Call a doctor immediately.
Applying too much pressure on the ends
when lifting a battery could cause acid to
spill. Lift the battery with a carrier or
with your hands on the opposite corners.

Automatic Transmission Fluid

Under normal driving conditions automatic
transmission fluid should be changed every
30,000 miles (48,000 km) or 21,000 miles
(34,000 km) if under severe duty conditions.
However, if the transmission is not working
properly, for instance, the transmission may slip
or shift slowly, or you may notice some sign of
fluid leakage, the fluid level should be checked.
