You may use a synthetic motor oil if
it meets the same requirements
given for a conventional motor oil: it
displays the API Certification Seal
and it is the proper weight. You must
follow the oil and filter change
intervals shown on the multi-
information display.

Your vehicle does not require any oil
additives. Additives may adversely
affect the engine or transmission
performance and durability.

Always change the oil and filter
according to the maintenance
messages shown on the multi-
information display. The oil and filter
collect contaminants that can
damage your engine if they are not
removed regularly.

Changing the oil and filter requires
special tools and access from
underneath the vehicle. The vehicle
should be raised on a service station-
type hydraulic lift for this service.
Unless you have the knowledge and
proper equipment, you should have
this maintenance done by a skilled
technician.

Acura Motor Oil is the preferred
5W-20 lubricant for your vehicle. 5W-
20 oil is formulated for year-round
protection of your vehicle to improve
cold weather starting and fuel
economy.
