*Change automatic transmission fluid only as necessary.
Generally, it is necessary to change automatic transmission
fluid only if your vehicle is driven under one of the Special
Operating Conditions listed in your “Owner’s Manual
Supplement / Scheduled Maintenance”. When changing the
automatic transmission fluid, use only “Toyota Genuine ATF
WS” (ATF JWS3324 or NWS9638) to aid in assuring optimum
transmission performance.NOTICE
Using automatic transmission fluid other than “Toyota
Genuine ATF WS” may cause deterioration in shift
quality, locking up of your transmission accompanied
by vibration, and ultimately damage the automatic
transmission of your vehicle.
GAS STATION INFORMATION
Fuel selection:
Select premium unleaded gasoline with an Octane Rating
of 91 (Research Octane Number 96) or higher for optimum
engine performance. However, if such premium type
cannot be obtained, you may temporarily use unleaded
gasoline with an Octane Rating as low as 87 (Research
Octane Number 91).
Fuel tank capacity:
71 L (18.7 gal., 15.6 lmp.gal.)
Engine oil:
“Toyota Genuine Motor Oil” or equivalent
Oil grade: API grade SL “Energy −Conserving” or ILSAC
multigrade engine oil.
Recommend oil viscosity − SAE 5W−30 if normal
temperatures are below 38 C (100F)

GS300 − 9.1 L (9.6 qt., 8.0 lmp.qt.) Coolant type −
”Toyota Super Long Life Coolant” or similar
high quality ethylene glycol based non −silicate, non −amine,
non−nitrite, and non −borate coolant with long −life hybrid
organic acid technology (Coolant with long −life hybrid
organic acid technology is a combination of low phosphates
and organic acids.)
Do not use plain water alone.
For checking the engine coolant, see page 527.

Tire information:
See page 539 through 561 for detailed information.
Tire inflation pressure:
Tire size: GS430 − 245/40R18 93Y or P245/40R18 93V
GS300 − 225/50R17 94W or P225/50R17 93V
Tire inflation pressure:
Front 230 kPa (2.3 kgf/cm
2 or bar, 33 psi)
Rear 230 kPa (2.3 kgf/cm2 or bar, 33 psi)
For sustained high speeds above 160 km/h (100 mph), in
countries where such speeds are permitted by law, add the
tire inflation pressure given below to the front tires and rear
tires, but never exceed the maximum cold tire inflation
pressure molded on the tire sidewall.
GS430 60 kPa (0.6 kgf/cm
2 or bar, 9 psi)
GS300 50 kPa (0.5 kgf/cm2 or bar, 7 psi)
