The owner's manual and the Compass maintenance display provide the factory schedule tailored to the engine and driving conditions.

• Refer to the owner's manual or dealer service guide for exact quarts.
• Dealer service ensures the system is filled to the OEM-specified level.
• Technicians check dipstick and run the engine to verify proper level.

Failure to follow scheduled maintenance and provide service records can jeopardize warranty claims.

There are three primary categories—conventional, synthetic blend, and full synthetic—that differ by base-stock processing and performance characteristics.

Conventional oils are refined base stocks suitable for many engines; synthetic blends mix synthetic and conventional stocks for improved protection at a lower cost; full synthetic oils offer the highest thermal stability and protection, especially under heavy load or extreme temperatures. Choosing the right type for your vehicle should align with the manufacturer’s recommendation.

• Conventional: cost-effective, meets basic protection needs.
• Synthetic blend: balance of protection and value.
• Full synthetic: best resistance to heat, oxidation, and shear.
