Operating materials are

Engine oil
Engine oil is identified by its quality
and its viscosity. Quality is more
important than viscosity when
selecting which engine oil to use.
The oil quality ensures e.g. engine cleanliness, wear protection and oil
ageing control, whereas viscosity
grade gives information on the oil's
thickness over a temperature range.
Dexos is the newest engine oil
quality that provides optimum
protection for petrol and diesel
engines. If it is unavailable, engine
oils of other listed qualities have to
be used. Recommendations for
petrol engines are also valid for
Compressed Natural Gas (CNG),
Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) and
Ethanol (E85) fuelled engines.
Select the appropriate engine oil
based on its quality and on the

the required engine oil quality and
viscosity.
