An oil that displays this symbol conforms
to current engine, emission system and
fuel economy performance standards of
the International Lubricants Specification
Advisory Committee (ILSAC).
Note:
Do not use more than 1.1 qt (1 L) of
the alternative engine oil between
scheduled service intervals. Using oil and fluids that do not meet the
defined specification and viscosity grade
may lead to:
•
Component damage which may not be
covered by the vehicle Warranty.
• Longer engine cranking periods.
• Increased emission levels.
• Reduced engine performance.
• Reduced fuel economy.
• Reduced brake performance.
Do not use supplemental engine oil
additives because they are unnecessary
and could lead to engine damage that may
not be covered by the vehicle Warranty.
Alternative Engine Oil for
Extremely Cold Climates
To improve engine cold start performance,
we recommend that you use the following
alternative engine oil where the ambient
temperature reaches
-22°F (-30°C) or
below.
