$ Oil used in the engine should have API classi fication and Proper SAE Engine Oil accor ding to the ambient
temperatures as show n below:
$ Recom mended API classifica tion
Refer to the following table for the suitable American Petroleum Institute (API) classification of engine oil according
to the engi ne type (with intern al EGR, external EGR or no n-EGR) and the Fuel Type Used : (Ultra Low Sulfur o r
High Sulfur Fuels).
EGR: Exh aust Gas Re-circulatio n
Above 25°C (77°F) SAE30, SAE10W-30 or 15W-40
-10 to 25°C (14°F to 77°F)
SAE10W-30 or 1 5W-40
Below -10°C (14°F)
SAE10W-30

(If the "CF -4, CG-4, CH-4 or CI-4" engine oil is used
with a high-sulfur fuel, change the engine oil at
shorter intervals. (approximately half))

cannot be used on EG
