Recommended SAE viscosity
number
Engine oil viscosity (thickness) has
an effect on fuel economy and cold
weather operation (engine start and
engine oil flowability). Lower viscosi-
ty engine oils can provide better fuel
economy and cold weather perform-
ance, however, higher viscosity
engine oils are required for satisfac-
tory lubrication in hot weather. Using
oils of any viscosity other than those
recommended could result in engine
damage. When choosing an oil, con-
sider the range of temperature your
vehicle will be operated in before the
next oil change. Proceed to select
the recommended oil viscosity from
the chart.

: For better fuel economy, it is recommended to use the engine oil of a viscosity grade SAE
0W-20 (API SN PLUS/SP or ILSAC GF-6). However, if the engine oil is not available in your
country, select the proper engine oil using the engine oil viscosity chart.
