352SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE  
American Petroleum Institute (API) Engine Oil 
Identification Symbol 
This symbol means that the oil has 
been certified by the American 
Petroleum Institute (API). The 
manufacturer only recommends API 
Certified engine oils.
This symbol certifies 0W-20, 5W-20, 0W-30, 
5W-30 and 10W-30 engine oils.
Engine Oil Viscosity  
Mopar SAE 0W-20 engine oil approved to FCA 
Material Standard MS-6395 such as Pennzoil, 
Shell Helix or equivalent is recommended for all 
operating temperatures. This engine oil 
improves low temperature starting and vehicle 
fuel economy. The engine oil filler cap also shows the 
recommended engine oil viscosity for your 
engine. For information on engine oil filler cap 
location, refer to the “Engine Compartment” 
illustration in this section.
Lubricants which do not have both the engine 
oil certification mark and the correct SAE 
viscosity grade number should not be used.
Synthetic Engine Oils  
You may use synthetic engine oils provided the 
recommended oil quality requirements are met, 
and the recommended maintenance intervals 
for oil and filter changes are followed.
Synthetic engine oils which do not have both the 
engine oil certification mark and the correct SAE 
viscosity grade number should not be used.
Materials Added To Engine Oil 
The manufacturer strongly recommends 
against the addition of any additives (other than 
leak detection dyes) to the engine oil. Engine oil 
is an engineered product and its performance 
may be impaired by supplemental additives.
Disposing Of Used Engine Oil And Oil Filters 
Care should be taken in disposing of used 
engine oil and oil filters from your vehicle. Used 
oil and oil filters, indiscriminately discarded, can 
present a problem to the environment. Contact 
an authorized dealer, service station or 
governmental agency for advice on how and 
where used oil and oil filters can be safely 
discarded in your area.
Engine Oil Filter  
The engine oil filter should be replaced with a 
new filter at every engine oil change.
Engine Oil Filter Selection
This manufacturer's engines have a full-flow 
type disposable oil filter. Use a filter of this type 
for replacement. The quality of replacement 
filters varies considerably. Only high quality 
filters should be used to ensure most efficient 
service. Mopar engine oil filters are high quality 
oil filters and are recommended.CAUTION!
Do not use chemical flushes in your engine oil 
as the chemicals can damage your engine. 
Such damage is not covered by the New 
Vehicle Limited Warranty.
