Preparing for a journey (winter operation)
* NOTE Engine damage as a result of the
wrong SAE class (viscosity) of engine oil
If the SAE class (viscosity) of the engine oil
used is not suitable for continually low out‐
side temperatures below -20 °C, this could
cause engine damage.
The temperature range information of the SAE
classification always refers to that of fresh oil.
Engine oil ages during driving due to soot and
fuel residue. This impairs the characteristics
of the engine oil, particularly at low outside
temperatures.
#
At outside temperatures below -20 °C
use engine oils of the SAE class 5W-30
or 0W-30.
#
Use all-season oils.
