Lubricants and Working Fluids
Recommendations are applicable to all climatic and operating conditions.
Note: Recommended oils contain all necessary elements. Additives should not be used.
Note: Oil should be changed much more frequently if the vehicle is operated in severe conditions (especially if it has to overcome deep water crossings).
