Transmission fluid change

I was talking to the service at the dealer about the 48000km service as the service booklet mentions a transmission fluid. But he said the CVT doesn't need change until 160,000km. Is this true??
Is there a service guide here abt what needs done when?
Thx!

My service manual says optional to change at 30,000 miles but mandatory at 60,000 miles.

Actually, the CVT fluid SHOULD be changed according to the CVT fluid deterioration value stored in the ECM. The tech can check it with the Consult-III. The FSM states if the number is <210,000, then it doesn't need to be changed. Obviously, >210,000 and it needs changed.
