Specifications & Consumer information Recommended lubricants and capacities
Recommended SAE viscosity number
An engine oil displaying this API Certification Mark conforms to the interna
-
tional Lubricant Specification Advisory Committee (ILSAC). It is recom
-
mended to only use engine oils that uphold this API Certification Mark.
CAUTION
Always be sure to clean the area around
any filler plug, drain plug, or dipstick
before checking or draining any lubri
-
cant. This is especially important in
dusty or sandy areas and when the vehi
-
cle is used on unpaved roads. Cleaning
the plug and dipstick areas will prevent
dirt and grit from entering the engine
and other mechanisms that could be
damaged.
Engine oil viscosity (thickness) has an
effect on fuel economy and cold
weather operating (engine start and
engine oil flowability). Lower viscosity
engine oils can provide better fuel econ
-
omy and cold weather performance,
however, higher viscosity engine oils are
required for satisfactory lubrication in
hot weather.
Using oils of any viscosity other than
those recommended could result in
engine damage.
When choosing an oil, consider the
range of temperature your vehicle will
be operated in before the next oil
change. Proceed to select the recom
-
mended oil viscosity from the chart.
