ENGINE OIL RECOMMENDATIONS

SAE Viscosity Grades

AMBIENT TEMPERATURE

Oil is a major factor affecting performance and service life. Use
4-stroke automotive detergent oil.

SAE 10W

30 is recommended for general use. Other viscosities

shown in the chart may be used when the average temperature in
your area is within the recommended range.

The SAE oil viscosity and service category are in the API label on the
oil container. Honda recommends that you use API SERVICE category
SJ or later (or equivalent) oil.
