FLUID TYPE

Note. The mixing of CHF, LHM, and ATF is not permitted.

Regular oil changing is not necessary. However, it is recommended to replace the oil after completion of repairs.

Use Dexron-III ATF type fluid. Areas with very low outside temperatures (e.g. Canada) are filled at the factory with Pentosin CHF 11S. These cars are marked with a pertinent label located close to the oil tank. In case of brief hydraulic noise after starting at low outside temperatures, replace the red ATF with green CHF or LHM oil in Shell LHM, Castrol LHM or Exxon LHM.
