DISASSEMBLY AND ASSEMBLY

CAUTION:

- Use a fluid of the designated brand for transmission fluid. Use of transmission fluid not specified by the manufacturer can affect driveability and the durability of the automatic transmission, and can even lead to damage to the transmission.

- Perform disassembly work in a clean, dustproof room.

- Wash sand and mud adhering to the outside of the transaxle well using steam or washing oil outside a dustproof room before disassembly to prevent them from entering the inside during disassembly and assembly. (Do not blow steam in the inside of the transaxle or wash rubber-made parts with washing oil.)

- Pull out the torque converter from the transaxle after it is cleaned and drain transmission fluid.

- During the disassembly and assembly work, always use bare hands or vinyl gloves.

- Do not touch internal parts with your hands which touched the outside of the transaxle.
(Wash your hands before touching internal parts.)

- Use paper towels instead of cotton gloves and shop towels to prevent entry of lint.

- Check the normal condition before performing disassembly and assembly work.

- Do not reuse drained transmission fluid.
