COMPATIBILITY

AMSOIL Signature Series® Synthetic Motor Oil is compatible with conventional and other synthetic motor oils. Mixing other oils with AMSOIL motor oils, however, will shorten the oil life expectancy and reduce the performance benefits. AMSOIL does not support extended drain intervals where oils have been mixed.

Aftermarket oil additives are not recommended for use with AMSOIL Signature Series® Synthetic Motor Oil.

SERVICE LIFE

• Normal Service – Up to 25,000 miles (40,200 km) 700 hours or one year, whichever comes first, in personal vehicles not operating under severe service.
• Severe Service – Up to 15,000 miles (24,140 km) 700 hours or one year, whichever comes first. Severe service conditions include commercial or fleet vehicles; excessive idling; or frequent towing, hauling, plowing or driving in dusty conditions.
• Modified engines (non-stock), racing vehicles and vehicles using alternative fuels (E85, CNG, propane, etc.) are excluded from extended drain interval recommendations.
• AMSOIL Oil Filters are designed for extended drain intervals. Do not exceed 12,000 miles (20,000 km) or one year with other brand filters unless longer intervals are recommended by the vehicle manufacturer. Always change the oil filter when changing oil.
• Check oil regularly to maintain proper fill levels. AMSOIL Oil Filters stop smaller particles, flow more oil and last longer than regular filters. For best performance, use AMSOIL Oil Filters

AMSOIL PRODUCT WARRANTY

Using AMSOIL synthetic lubricants or practising extended drain intervals does not void your new vehicle or equipment manufacturer's warranty.
