Less than 100% concentration of TranSynd™/TES 295 approved fluid is considered a mixture and should utilize non-TES 295
change intervals. If the customer replaces non-TranSynd™/non-TES 295 fluid with TranSynd™/TES 295 equivalent, the change
interval recommendations of non-TranSynd™/non-TES 295/mixture must be followed. Upon the next oil change, if the customer
reinstall TranSynd™/TES 295 equivalent, the fluid & filter change recommendation outlined in 100% TES 295 approved fluids must
be followed.

fluid. Oil change must be performed
with the vehicle on a flat and level surface and
with parking brake applied. Oil and oil filter
change frequency is determined by the severity of
service and operating conditions of the
transmission and by the filter equipment installed.
See "TABLE 1, TABLE 2 or TABLE 3" for oil and
filter change intervals. More frequent changes
may be required when operations are subject to
high levels of contamination or overheating.
Filters must be changed at or before
recommended intervals.
