What is a CVT application? Mine claims it needs MERCON and obviously not to mix.

The synthetic base oil enables excellent performance even in the
severest of operating conditions. It offers outstanding gear shifting
and power transfer performance versus conventional ATF fluids. The
inherently high viscosity index and stability of Mobil 1 Synthetic ATF
help protect against thermal breakdown at high operating temperatures,
while still providing outstanding performance at very low ambient
temperatures.
Mobil 1 Synthetic ATF combines high-performance synthetic hydrocarbon
base oils and a superior balanced additive system to provide
significantly higher levels of performance above conventional fluids.
This unique, advanced technology provides long drain capability,
excellent friction retention, and low-temperature fluidity. Further, it
helps to improve overall transmission durability and cleanliness. Mobil
1 Synthetic ATF is also compatible with conventional ATFs.
Mobil 1 Synthetic ATF is formulated for use in most North American, European and Asian vehicles.

Automatic transmissions should
be checked for proper fluid levels at regular intervals, and the fluid
should be changed at manufacturer-recommended intervals. However, this
may vary due to your vehicle's operating conditions. Some manufacturers
recommend more frequent changes of transmission fluid under severe
driving conditions, such as heavy traffic, hot weather and trailer
pulling.
