The numbers in the middle of the API Service label tell
you the oil's SAE viscosity or weight. Select the oil for
your vehicle according to this chart:
Ambient Temperature
An oil with a viscosity of 10W - 30 is preferred for
improved fuel economy and year-round protection in the
vehicle.
You may use a 5W - 30 oil if the climate in your area is
limited to the temperature range shown on the chart.
