BB00.40-P-0223-01A Specified Break-in Engine Oils - Overview Viscosity Classes

Multigrade oils

Multigrade oils of the prescribed SAE grade can be used year round, low taking the outside temperature into account (see sheet 224.1, sheet 224.2). Before the cold season begins, ensure that the SAE grade you use is sufficient for the temperatures in which you are active, taking the SAE table into account.

Please note that the SAE grade refers to new oil. The low taking temperature characteristic of engine oil can worsen considerably due to aging in operation. An oil change before the cold season begins with an approved engine oil in the suitable SAE grade is therefore highly recommended.
