Topping Up & Changing Fluid

  • Selden changed from vegetable to mineral base fluid in 2005.
  • For service or top-up, the identical fluid is preferable.
  • Fluid from other makers is acceptable if it has the same base (vegetable or mineral) and a similar specification.
  • To change from vegetable to mineral base, the system must be completely drained.
  • In normal use change the oil together with the filter at least every four years.
