Additional Notes
- The Sunbeam Alpine Series IV carries a 6.3-liter automatic transmission fluid refill capacity, which represents the service fill volume used during a routine drain-and-fill procedure rather than a complete overhaul, where total system capacity would typically be higher due to fluid retained in the torque converter and cooler lines.
- The 6.3-liter figure applies specifically to a refill context, meaning a full system flush or transmission rebuild on the Series IV would require accounting for additional fluid beyond what a standard service fill replaces.
- A 9,000 km check interval is specified for normal use conditions on the Alpine Series IV, placing the service schedule within a moderate-frequency maintenance cycle consistent with automatic transmission fluid monitoring practices of the era.
- The normal use condition tied to the 9,000 km interval reflects standard operating circumstances, as opposed to more demanding driving patterns that would typically shorten fluid service intervals on automatic transmissions.
