Adding Engine Oil Recommended Engine Oil Oil is a major contributor to your engine's performance and longevity. Always use a premium-grade detergent oil displaying the API Certification Seal. This seal indicates the oil is energy conserving, and that it meets the American Petroleum Institute's latest requirements. It is highly recommended that you use Acura Motor Oil in your vehicle for optimum engine protection. Make sure the API Certification Seal says ''For Gasoline Engines.'' The oil viscosity or weight is provided on the container's label. 2WD models: Acura Motor Oil is the preferred 0W-20 lubricant for your vehicle. 0W-20 oil is formulated for yearround protection of your vehicle to improve cold weather starting and fuel economy. Maintenance ENGINE OIL FILL CAP Unscrew and remove the engine oil fill cap on top of the valve cover. Pour in the oil slowly and carefully so you do not spill. Clean up any spills immediately. Spilled oil could damage components in the engine compartment. Install the engine oil fill cap, and tighten it securely. Wait a few minutes, and recheck the oil level (see page 474 ). Do not fill above the upper mark; you could damage the engine. API CERTIFICATION SEAL Ambient Temperature CONTINUED 2013 TL 543
