■Oil capacity (Drain and refill [Ref-
erence*])
*: The engine oil capacity is a reference
quantity to be used when changing the
engine oil. Warm up 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” is used in
your Lexus vehicle. Lexus recom-
mends the use of approved “Toyota
Genuine Motor Oil”. Another motor
oil of matching quality can also be
used.
Oil grade:
5W-30 and 10W-30:
API grade SL “Energy-Conserving”,
SM “Energy-Conserving” or SN
“Resource-Conserving”; or ILSAC
multigrade engine oil
15W-40:
API grade SL, SM or SN multigrade
engine oil
Recommended viscosity (SAE):
SAE 5W-30 is filled into your Lexus
vehicle at manufacturing, and the best
choice for good fuel economy and
good starting in cold weather.
If you use SAE 10W-30 or a higher vis-
cosity engine oil in extremely low tem-
peratures, the engine may become
difficult to start, so SAE 5W-30 engine
oil is recommended.
Temperature range anticipated
before next oil change.
Preferred
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 vis-
cosity characteristic of the oil when
the oil is at high temperature. An oil

the vehicle is operated at high
speeds, or under extreme load con-
ditions.
How to read oil container labels:
Either or both API registered marks
are added to some oil containers to
help you select the oil you should use.
API Service Symbol
Top portion: “API SERVICE SN” means the
oil quality designation by American Petro-
leum Institute (API).
Center portion: “SAE 5W-30” means the
SAE viscosity grade.
Lower portion: “Resource-Conserving”
means that the oil has fuel-saving and envi-
ronmental protection capabilities.
ILSAC Certification Mark
The International Lubr icant Specification
Advisory Committee (ILSAC) Certifica-
tion Mark is displayed on the front of the
container.

■Oil capacity (Drain and refill [Ref-

*: The engine oil capacity is a reference
quantity to be used when changing the

off the hybrid system, wait more than 5
minutes, and check the oil level on the
dipstick.

SAE 0W-20 is filled into your Lexus

good starting in cold weather.
If SAE 0W-20 oil is not available, SAE
5W-30 oil may be used. However, it
should be replaced with SAE 0W-20
at the next oil change.
If you use SAE 10W-30 or a higher vis-
cosity engine oil in extremely low tem-
peratures, the engine may become
difficult to start, so SAE 0W-20 or
5W-30 engine oil is recommended.With filter5.7 L (6.0 qt., 5.0 Imp.qt.)
