ENGINE OIL SELECTION
Use API grade SL "Energy–Conserving" or
ILSAC multigrade engine oil.
Recommended viscosity:
SAE 5W–30
Outside temperature
SAE 5W–30 is the best choice for good
fuel economy, and good starting in cold
weather.
If SAE 5W–30 oil is not available, a
SAE 10W–30 oil may be used. However,
it should be replaced with SAE 5W–30
at the next oil change.
