A precise oil level reading is vital to know the following:

If your engine has been operating recently, shut off the engine, and wait for a few moments for the oil to drain into the pan. Inspecting the level of oil too quickly after shutting off the engine won’t give an accurate measurement of the oil’s level.

The SAE 5W-30 grade is considered to be the ideal viscosity grade for your vehicle. Don’t use other oils with a viscosity grade such as SAE 10W-30 20W-50, or 10W-40.

Operating at Cold Temperature: When in areas of extreme cold, when temperatures are below the temperature of -29degC (-20degF) the SAE 0W-30 engine oil could be utilized. When choosing an oil that has the right viscosity grade ensure that you select an oil that meets the specifications. Check out “Specification” at the beginning of this section for further details.

The recommended oils that meet the dexos specifications, as well as the certification mark dexos, are enough to ensure good performance and protection for your engine.
