What
Kind
of
Engine
Oil
to
Use
Oils recommended for your vehicle can be identified by
looking for the starburst symbol.
This symbol indicates that the oil has been certified by
the American Petroleum Institute (API).
Do
not use
any oil which does not carry this starburst symbol.
If
you choose
to
perform
the engine oil change
service yourself, be sure
the oil you use has the
starburst symbol on the
front of the oil container.
If
you have your oil changed
for you, be sure the oil put
into you engine is American
Petroleum Institute certified
for gasoline engines.
You should also use the proper viscosity oil for yout
vehicle, as shown in the viscosity chart.
SAE 1OW-30 is the viscosity grade recommended for
your vehicle. However, you can use
SAE
5W-30
if
it's
going to be colder than 60°F
(1
6°C)
before your next oil
change. When it is very cold, colder than 0°F (-1
8"C),
you should use an SAE 5W-30 oil. These numbers on an
oil container show its viscosity, or thickness.
Do not use
other viscosity grade oils, such as SAE
1
OW-40 or
SAE 20W-50 under any conditions.
