!Alternative engine oil
If the SUBARU approved oil is unavailable, the following alternative oil can be used.NOTE.Each quantity indicated here 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, you may use different brands together as long as they are the same API classification and SAE viscosity
as those recommended by SUBARU.

applicable temperatureEngine oil capacity

tute) classificationSNwith the

fied with the ILSAC certification
mark (Starburst mark)5W-30 syntheticoil is the required oil for
optimum engine performance and pro-
tection. Conventional oil may be used if
synthetic oil is unavailable.
*: If 5W-30 synthetic oil is not available,
5W-40 conventional oil may be used if
replenishment is needed but should be
changed to 5W-30 synthetic oil at the
next oil change.
