2. APPROVED OILS

A. Service Requirements

(1) The engine must be serviced only with the approved oils listed in Table 1 of the
paragraph ( 2.B. Tabulation of Oils ). There are no known incompatibilities among oil
brands, provided they are of the same type and specification. However mixing of two
different approved brands of oil is only permitted once per month.

NOTE: When changing oil from Turbonycoil 600 to BP Turbo Oil 2197 (BP2197) or
when changing oil from BP Turbo Oil 2197 (BP2197) to Turbonycoil 600 ,
remove and inspect the oil filters (supply and scavenge (if applicable) oil
filters) on the two first engines reaching 500 hours.

Oil consumption and oil pressure have to be carefully monitored during this
period, in order to detect supply or scavenge tubes clogging.

Oil filters will have to be sent to CFM:

(2) Fleet changeover from one approved brand to another approved brand of the same
type may be accomplished by adding the new oil at the time of service (Topping off).

Fleet changeover from one approved brand to another approved brand of a different
type may be accomplished after total draining of the oil tank.

(3) In case of accidental mixing of a non approved oil brand or a different oil type brand
the following action must be taken:

- If less than 10% by volume (2 Quarts or less) has been dispensed in to the oil
tank, no action is required.

- If more than 10% by volume (more than 2 Quarts) has been added in the oil tank,
the tank must be drained and refilled with the specified oil brand prior to next flight.

3. REQUIREMENTS FOR OIL APPROVAL

A. General

(1) Airline operators desiring to use an oil not approved for service or service evaluation
should contact the CFM International Customer Support Manager prior to operating
the engines with the proposed lubricant. Evaluation and/or engine operation of
CFM56 engines with other oils without CFM concurrence will void the warranty and/or
long-term material cost guarantees.

(2) Requests to CFM International for new oil approvals not described by this Service
Bulletin will only be considered for evaluation when requested by an airline operator.

(3) Any airline operator desiring to use an oil in both service evaluation categories
should contact the CFM International Customer Support Manager to obtain the latest
status of that oil since it may affect the applicability of its proposed use. In addition,
the airline operator must establish documentation of the airline's specific Revenue
Service Evaluation Program in a Service Evaluation Request (SER), to be issued by
CFM International.

(4) A Revenue Service Evaluation is required to obtain CFM International's "Fully

Approved" status for an engine oil. The paragraphs 3.B. and 3.C., define the
requirements for obtaining approval to use an engine oil in Revenue Service
Evaluation and conducting a Revenue Service Evaluation. Modifications of these
requirements to comply with a specific operator's service practices may be negotiated
and documented in the Service Evaluation Request to be established with CFM
International.

(5) An additional revenue evaluation is required to obtain CFM International's "Fully

Approved" status for engine oils listed in Table 1 of the paragraph ( 2.B. Tabulation of
Oils ). The paragraph 3.D. defines the requirements for obtaining approval to use an
engine oil in additional Revenue Service Evaluation and conducting an additional
Revenue Service Evaluation. Modifications of these requirements to comply with
a specific operator's service practices may be negotiated and documented in the
additional Service Evaluation Request to be established with CFM International.

B. Oil Approval Requirements for Revenue Service Evaluation

(1) Laboratory analyses must confirm that the oil conforms to the specifications listed
in paragraph 1.I. References of this Service Bulletin. Operators desiring to obtain
approval of oils not previously confirmed to the referenced specifications must submit
or initiate submittal of laboratory test data and oil samples if required, to conform to
requirements of the listed specifications.

(2) The oil for Revenue Service Evaluation approval must have been subjected to
engine testing per (a) or (b) below, followed by an engine teardown inspection
unless alternate equivalent testing is agreed to by CFM International and authorized
agencies in any particular instance.

(a) 150 hours Sea Level Static (SLS) Certification Test (25 "A" Cycles).

(b) Simulated Flight Cycles Test 2000 "C" Cycles - accelerated service.

Based on the laboratory analysis result, this requirement might be postponed

and done in parallel with the Service Evaluation.

C. Requirements for Revenue Service Evaluation

NOTE: The oil to be service evaluated must have satisfactorily completed the requirements
as noted in paragraphs 3.B.(1). and 3.B.(2). of this Service Bulletin.

The following basic requirements for conducting a Revenue Service Evaluation

must be met unless they are changed in the Service Evaluation Request.
