the engine may fail or be damaged.

Institute’s latest requirements.
Use a Genuine Honda Motor Oil or another
commercial engine oil of suitable viscosity for
the ambient temperature as shown.

You may also use synthetic motor oil if it is labeled with the API Certification Seal
and is the specified viscosity grade.

container.1 Recommended Engine Oil
Engine Oil Additives
