Vehicle Care

Use of oils that do not meet the
dexos specification, however, may
result in reduced performance under
certain circumstances.

Viscosity Grade

SAE 5W-30 is the best viscosity
grade for the vehicle. Do not
use other viscosity oils such as
SAE 10W

30, 10W

40, or 20W-50.

Cold Temperature Operation:
In an area of extreme cold,
where the temperature falls
below

29°C (

20°F), an

SAE 0W-30 oil should be used.
An oil of this viscosity grade
will provide easier cold starting
for the engine at extremely low
temperatures. When selecting an oil
of the appropriate viscosity grade,
be sure to always select an oil that
meets the required specification,
dexos. See

Specification

earlier in

this section for more information.
