Recommended viscosity: SAE 0W-20
SAE 0W-20 is the best choice for
good fuel economy and good start-
ing in cold weather.
If SAE 0W-20 is not available, SAE
5W-20 oil may be used. However, it
must be replaced with SAE 0W-20
at the next oil change.
Oil viscosity (0W-20 is explained here as an example):• The 0W in 0W-20 indicates the characteristic of the oil which allows cold
startability. Oils with a lower value before the W allow for easier starting of
the engine in cold weather.
• The 20 in 0W-20 indicates the viscosity characteristic of the oil when the oil is at high temperature. An oil with a higher viscosity (one with a higher
value) may be better suited if the vehicle is operated at high speeds, or
under extreme load conditions.

cation Advisory Committee
(ILSAC) Certification Mark is added
to some oil containers to help you
select the oil you should use.

*: The engine oil capacity is a reference quantity to be used when changing the engine
oil. Warm up the engine and turn off the engine, wait more than 5 minutes, and check
the oil level on the dipstick.
■Engine oil selection
“Toyota Genuine Motor Oil SAE 0W-20 for Direct Injection Turbo Gasoline
Engines” is used in your Lexus vehicle. Use Lexus approved “Toyota Genuine
Motor Oil SAE 0W-20 for Direct Injection Turbo Gasoline Engines” or
equivalent to satisfy the fo llowing grade and viscosity.
Oil grade: “Toyota Genuine Motor Oil SAE 0W-20 for Direct Injection Turbo
Gasoline Engines” or ILSAC GF-5 multigrade engine oil
Recommended viscosity: SAE 0W-20
SAE 0W-20 is the best choice for
good fuel economy and good start-
ing in cold weather.
If SAE 0W-20 is not available, SAE

SAE 5W-30 is the best choice for
good fuel economy and good start-
ing in cold weather.
If SAE 5W-30 is not available, SAE
10W-30 oil may be used. However,
it must be replaced with SAE 5W-
30 at the next oil change.
Oil viscosity (5W-30 is explained here as an example):
• The 5W in 5W-30 indicates the characteristic of the oil which allows cold
startability. Oils with a lower value before the W allow for easier starting of
the engine in cold weather.
• The 30 in 5W-30 indicates the viscosity characteristic of the oil when the oil is at high temperature. An oil with a higher viscosity (one with a higher
value) may be better suited if the vehicle is operated at high speeds, or
under extreme load conditions.

Fuel information
■Gasoline quality
In very few cases, driveability problems may be caused by the brand of gasoline you are
using. If driveability problems persist, try chan
ging the brand of gasoline. If this does not
correct the problem, consult your Lexus dealer.
■Gasoline quality standards
●Automotive manufacturers in the U.S.A., Europe and Japan have developed a specifi-
cation for fuel quality called the World-Wide Fuel Charter (WWFC), which is expected
to be applied worldwide.
●The WWFC consists of four categories that are based on required emission levels. In
the U.S., category 4 has been adopted.
●The WWFC improves air quality by lowering emissions in vehicle fleets, and improves
customer satisfaction through better performance.
You must only use unleaded gasoline.
XGS350/GS F
Select premium unleaded gasoline with an octane rating of 91 (Research
Octane Number 96) or higher required for optimum engine performance.
If 91 octane cannot be obtained, you may use unleaded gasoline with an
octane rating as low as 87 (Research Octane Number 91). Use of unleaded
gasoline with an octane rating lower than 91 may result in engine knocking
and significantly reduced performance. Persistent knocking can lead to
engine damage and should be corrected by refueling with higher octane
unleaded gasoline.
XGS200t
Select premium unleaded gasoline with an octane rating of 91 (Research
Octane Number 96) or higher required for optimum engine performance. If
91 octane cannot be obtained, you may use unleaded gasoline with an octane
rating as low as 87 (Research Octane Number 91). Use of unleaded gasoline
with an octane rating lower than 91 may result in engine knocking and signifi-
cantly reduced performance. Persistent knocking can lead to engine damage
and should be corrected by refueling with higher octane unleaded gasoline.
At minimum, the gasoline you use should meet the specifications of ASTM
D4814 in the U.S.A..

■Recommendation of the use of gasoline containing detergent additives
●Lexus recommends the use of gasoline that contains detergent additives to avoid the
build-up of engine deposits.
●All gasoline sold in the U.S.A. contains
minimum detergent additives to clean and/or
keep clean intake systems, per EPA’s lowest additives concentration program.
●Lexus strongly recommends the use of Top Tier Detergent Gasoline. For more informa-
tion on Top Tier Detergent Gasoline and a list of marketers, please go to the official
website www.toptiergas.com.
■Recommendation of the use of low emissions gasoline
Gasolines containing oxygenates such as ethers and ethanol, as well as reformulated
gasolines, are available in some cities. These fuels are typically acceptable for use, pro-
viding they meet other fuel requirements.
Lexus recommends these fuels, since the formulations allow for reduced vehicle emis-
sions.
■Non-recommendation of the use of blended gasoline
●If you use gasohol in your vehicle, be sure that it has an octane rating no lower than 87.
●Lexus does not recommend the use of gasoline containing methanol.
■Non-recommendation of the use of gasoline containing MMT
Some gasoline contains an octane enhanc ing additive called MMT (Methylcyclopenta-
dienyl Manganese Tricarbonyl).
Lexus does not recommend the use of gasoline that contains MMT. If fuel containing
MMT is used, your emission control system may be adversely affected.
The malfunction indicator lamp on the instrument cluster may come on. If this happens,
contact your Lexus dealer for service.
■If your engine knocks
●Consult your Lexus dealer.
●You may occasionally notice light knocking for a short time while accelerating or driv-
ing uphill. This is normal and there is no need for concern.
●Use only gasoline containing up to 15% etha-
nol.
DO NOT use any flex-fuel or gasoline that
could contain more than 15% ethanol, includ-
ing from any pump labeled E30, E50, E85
(which are only some examples of fuel con-
taining more than 15% ethanol).DO NOT use gasoline con-
taining more than 15% ethanol.

NOTICE
■Notice on fuel quality
●Do not use improper fuels. If improper fuels are used, the engine will be damaged.
●Do not use leaded gasoline.
Leaded gasoline can cause damage to your vehicle’s three-way catalytic converters
causing the emission control system to malfunction.
●Do not use gasohol other than the type previously stated.
Other gasohol may cause fuel system damage or vehicle performance problems.
●Using unleaded gasoline with an octane number or rating lower than the level previ-
ously stated will cause persistent heavy knocking.
At worst, this will lead to engine damage.
■Fuel-related poor driveability
If poor driveability (poor hot starting, vaporization, engine knocking, etc.) is encoun-
tered after using a different type of fuel, discontinue the use of that type of fuel.
■When refueling with gasohol
Take care not to spill gasohol. It can damage your vehicle’s paint.

■Temperature A, B, C
The temperature grades are A (the highest), B, and C, representing the tire’s
resistance to the generation of heat and its ability to dissipate heat when
tested under controlled conditions on a specified indoor laboratory test
wheel.
Sustained high temperature can cause the material of the tire to degenerate and
reduce tire life, and excessive temperature can lead to sudden tire failure.
Grade C corresponds to a level of performance which all passenger car tires must
meet under the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 109.
Grades B and A represent higher levels of performance on the laboratory test
wheel than the minimum required by law.
Warning: The temperature grades of a tire assume that it is properly inflated and
not overloaded.
Excessive speed, underinflation, or excessive loading, either separately or in com-
bination, can cause heat buildup and possible tire failure.
