Your vehicle was filled at the factory
with dexos™ approved engine oil.
Notice: Use only engine oil
that is approved to the dexos™
specification or an equivalent
engine oil of the appropriate
viscosity grade. Engine oils
approved to the dexos™
specification will show
the dexos™ symbol on the

recommended engine oil or
equivalent can result in engine
damage not covered by the
vehicle warranty. If you are
unsure whether your oil is
approved to the dexos™
specification, ask your
service provider.
Use of Substitute Engine Oils if

Use of oils that do not meet the

may result in reduced performance
under certain circumstances.
