WARNING
■To avoid malfunction of the camera sensor
Observe the following precautions.
Otherwise, the camera sensor may not oper
ate properly, possibly leading to an acci-
dent resulting in deat h or serious injury.
●Keep the windshield clean at all times.
• If the windshield is dirty or covered with an oily film, water droplets, snow, etc.,
clear the windshield.
• If a glass coating agent is applied to the wi ndshield, it will still be necessary to use

condensation or ice, use the windshield defogger to remove the fog, condensation or
ice. ( P. 322)
●If water droplets cannot be properly removed from the area of the windshield in front
of the camera sensor by th e windshield wipers, replace the wiper insert or wiper
blade.
If the wiper inserts or wiper blades need to be replaced, contact your Lexus dealer.
●Do not attach window tinting to the windshield.
●Replace the windshield if it is damaged or cracked.
If the windshield needs to be re placed, contact your Lexus dealer.

37 F (3 C) or lower
A buzzer also sounds.
 Drive carefully, as the road may be icy.

Vehicle specifications
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 be fore the W allow for easier starting of
the engine in cold weather.
• The 20 in 0W-20 indicates the viscos ity 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 lo ad conditions.
How to read oil container label:
The International Lubricant Specifi-
cation Advisory Committee
(ILSAC) Certification Mark is added
to some oil containers to help you
select the oil you should use.

■Engine oil selection
“Toyota Genuine Motor Oil” is used
in your Lexus vehicle. Use Lexus
approved “Toyota Genuine Motor Oil” or equivalent to satisfy the following
grade and viscosity.
Oil grade: ILSAC GF-5 multigrade engine oil
Recommended viscosity: SAE 5W-30
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 should 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 charact eristic of the oil which allows cold
startability. Oils with a lower value be fore the W allow for easier starting of
the engine in cold weather.
• The 30 in 5W-30 indicates the viscos ity 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 lo ad conditions.
