& Engine oil
For the checking, adding and replacing procedure or other details, refer to “Engine oil ”F 11-7.
NOTE
The procedure for changing the engine oil and oil filter should be performed by a properly-trained expert. It is recommended
that you have this service performed by your SUBARU dealer. ! Approved engine oil
Always use the SUBARU approved engine oil. For further details, please contact your SUBARU dealer.
If the approved engine oil is unavailable, use the alternative engine oil described on the next page. ! Alternative engine oil
If the SUBARU approved oil is unavailable, the following alternative oil can be used. NOTE . Each quantity indicated is only a guideline. The necessary quantity for replacement may differ slightly depending on the
temperature and other factors. . In choosing an oil, you want the proper quality and viscosity, as well as one that will enhance fuel economy. Oils of lower
viscosity provide better fuel economy. However, in hot weather, oil of higher viscosity is required to properly lubricate the
engine. The following table lists the recommended viscosities and applicable temperatures.. When adding oil, different brands may be used together as long as they are the same API classification and SAE viscosity
as those recommended by SUBARU.

“ RESOURCE CONSERVING ”orILSAC GF-4 or GF-5, which can
be identified with the ILSAC
certification mark (Starburst mark) Your vehicle is designed to use 5W-30
conventional motor oil, however 5W-30
synthetic may be used for optimum

If you do choose to use synthetic oil,
we recommend that you continue using
synthetic for the life of your vehicle.
