As in the chart shown previously, SAE 5W

-

30 is the

only viscosity grade recommended for your vehicle. You
should look for and use only oils which have the API
Starburst symbol and which are also identified as
SAE 5W

-

30. If you cannot find such SAE 5W

-

30 oils,

you can use an SAE 10W

-

30 oil which has the API

Starburst symbol, if it’s going to be 0

_F (

-

18

_C) or

above. Do not use other viscosity grade oils, such as
SAE 10W

-

40 or SAE 20W

-

50 under any conditions.

NOTICE:

Use only engine oil with the American Petroleum
Institute Certified For Gasoline Engines
starburst symbol. Failure to use the
recommended oil can result in engine damage not
covered by your warranty.

R

oil meets all the requirements for

your vehicle.

If you are in an area of extreme cold, where the
temperature falls below

-

20

_F (

-

29

_C), it is

recommended that you use either an SAE 5W

-

30

synthetic oil or an SAE 0W

-

30 oil. Both will provide

easier cold starting and better protection for your engine
at extremely low temperatures.

Engine Oil Additives

Don’t add anything to your oil. The recommended oils
with the starburst symbol are all you will need for good
performance and engine protection.
