■Engine oil consumption 
A certain amount of engine oil will be  
consumed while driving. In the following  situations, oil consumption may  
increase, and engine oil may need to be 
refilled in between oil maintenance inter- vals.
●When the engine is new, for example directly after purchasing the vehicle or  
after replacing the engine
●If low quality oil or oil of an inappropri-
ate viscosity is used
●When driving at high engine speeds 
or with a heavy load, when towing, or 
when driving while accelerating or  decelerating frequently
●When leaving the engine idling for a long time, or when driving frequently  
through heavy traffic
■After changing the engine oil 
The engine oil maintenance data should  
be reset. Perform the following proce- dures: 
1 Press   or   of the meter con- 
trol switch to select  . 
2 Press   or   to select “Vehicle

■Used engine oil
●Used engine oil contains poten-
tially harmful contaminants which 
may cause skin disorders such as  inflammation and skin cancer, so  
care should be taken to avoid pro-
longed and repeated contact. To  remove used engine oil from your  
skin, wash thoroughly with soap 
and water.
●Dispose of used oil and filters only 
in a safe and acceptable manner.  Do not dispose of used oil and fil- 
ters in household trash, in sewers 
or onto the ground. Call any authorized Toyota retailer  
or Toyota authorized repairer, or 
any reliable repairer, service station  or auto parts store for information  
concerning recycling or disposal.
●Do not leave used engine oil within 
the reach of children.
NOTICE

■Oil capacity (Drain and refill  
[Reference*])
*: 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 dip-
stick.
■Engine oil selection 
“Toyota Genuine Motor Oil” is used  
in your Toyota vehicle. Toyota rec-
ommends the use of approved 
“Toyota Genuine Motor Oil”. 
Another motor oil of matching qual-
ity can also be used. 
Oil grade:
0W-20 and 5W-30
API grade SM “Energy-Conserv- 
ing”, SN “Resource-Conserving”, 
SN PLUS “Resource-Conserving” 
or SP “Resource-Conserving”; or 
ILSAC GF-6A multigrade engine oil 
Recommended viscosity (SAE): 
Preferred 
Temperature range anticipated  
before next oil change 
SAE 0W-20 is filled in to your Toyota  
vehicle at manufacturing, and the 
best choice for good fuel economy 
and good starting in cold weather. If 
SAE 0W-20 oil is not available, 
SAE 5W-30 oil may be used. How-
ever, it should be replaced with 
SAE 0W-20 at the ne xt 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 tempera-
ture. An oil with a higher viscos-
ity (one with a higher value) may 
be better suited if the vehicle is 
operated at high speeds, or 
under extreme load conditions. 
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.
