Health and safety

Health and Safety recommendations for this product can be found on the Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) @ http://www.msds.exxonmobil.com/psims/psims.aspx
If your car manufacturer recommends a SAE 5W‐30 ILSAC oil, we recommend either Mobil 1™ 5W‐30 or Mobil 1 Advanced Fuel Economy 0W‐30. Mobil 1 Advanced Fuel Economy 0W‐30 will not void new‐car warranties where an SAE 5W‐30 oil is recommended. Mobil 1 Advanced Fuel Economy 0W‐30 can provide better fuel economy and better low‐temperature performance than higher viscosity oils.
With the exception of the Mazda rotary engine (Mazda does not recommend any synthetic oils), Mobil 1 will not void new‐car warranties where an American Petroleum Institute (API) certified oil is recommended. Mobil 1 meets or exceeds API and International Lubricant Standardization and Approval Committee (ILSAC) motor oil service requirements of all new‐car manufacturers, both import and domestic. If in doubt, always check your vehicle owner's manual or contact the vehicle manufacturer.

Many kinds of driving conditions qualify your vehicle for severe service oil change intervals, and Mobil 1 is ideal for this service. Severe service conditions can include, among other things:

  • Trips of less than 10 miles
  • Driving in cold weather
  • Idling for extended periods
  • Stop‐and‐go traffic
  • Pulling trailers/carrying heavy loads
  • Driving in dusty conditions

Under both normal and severe service conditions, Mobil 1 is engineered to provide performance reserves in the areas of sludge prevention, piston cleanliness, wear protection and high‐temperature durability.
