Lightbulb quick oil change question.. please!

First of all, my internet is down and all I have is my blackberry ! So don't hate, it takes a long time to search and view pages.

I went to the store the other day and forgot to look but I got Castrol Syntec 5w30 except it doesn't say its approved for 502.11 or whatever it is. It says ok for Ford, Chrysler and something else.... Am I ok or did I mess up ?
Thanks!

the 5w40 is the "approved" oil. You are fine using the 5w30.
