LOL! I bet you change your underwear 4 times a day too.

The saying "When in doubt, consult your owner's Manual" is quite true!

The oil change interval is 3,000 km. That is 1,863 miles. *** AND *** that is based upon conventional oil. I intent to change mine TWICE that with fully synthetic oil.

Thru regular oil analysis, I finally changed my big rig Volvo engine's oil, whose nominal oil change interval was 20,000 miles with dino oil after 130,000 miles. Said truck I bought at 500,000 miles and sold it at over 1,000,000 miles!
