allowed for use in the 3.5L Engine during cold weather
only to improve cold weather starting.
The engine oil filler cap also shows the recommended

partment illustration in this section.
In areas where these grades are not generally available,
higher SAE grades may be used. Lubricants which haveboth an SAE grade number and the API Certification
Symbol or ACEA category shown on the container
should be used.
Lubricants which do not have both, the engine oil certi-
fication mark and the correct SAE viscosity grade num-
ber should not be used.
Synthetic Engine Oils

recommended oil quality requirements are met and the
recommended maintenance intervals for oil and filter
changes are followed.
Materials Added to Engine Oil
The manufacture strongly recommends against the addi-

the engine oil. Engine oil is an engineered product and
it’s performance may be impaired by supplemental ad-
ditives.
