The Engine Oil Certification Mark was developed and trademarked by the API to refer customers to those engine oils preferred by the automobile
manufacturers. This symbol means that the oil has been certified and licensed by the American Petroleum Institute (API). This certification mark will
only be found on the front of the oil containers. Those oils that do not display the "Mark" on the front of the container should not be used.

DaimlerChrysler only recommends API Certified engine oils that meet the requirements of Material Standard MS-6395. Use Mopar or an equivalent oil
meeting the specification MS-6395.

SYNTHETIC ENGINE OILS

The 8.4L engine comes from the factory with Mobil 1(R) synthetic engine oil. A full synthetic API certified engine oil of the proper viscosity grade is
recommended for refill.

There are a number of engine oils being promoted as either synthetic or semi-synthetic. If you choose to use such a product, use only  those oils that are
certified by the American Petroleum Institute (API) to display the "Certification Mark" and show SAE viscosity grade recommended for each vehicle.
Follow the service schedule that describes your driving type.
