6-3. Do-it-yourself maintenance
Maintenance and care
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, or when driving
while accelerating or decelerating fre-
quently
●When leaving the engine idling for a
long time, or when driving frequently through heavy traffic
The coolant level is satisfactory if it
is between the “FULL” and “LOW”
lines on the reservoir when the
engine is cold.
■Engine coolant reservoir
Reservoir cap
“FULL” line
“LOW” line
If the level is on or below the “LOW”
line, add coolant up to the “FULL” line.
( P.362)
■Coolant selection
Only use “TOYOTA Genuine 50/50
Pre-mixed Super Long Life Coolant BLUE” or a similar high quality ethylene
glycol based non-silicate, non-amine,
non-nitrite, and non-borate coolant with long-life hybrid organic acid technology.

■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 thoro ughly 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 author-
ized Toyota dealer or repairer, or
another duly qualified and equipped professional, service station or auto
parts store for information concern-
ing recycling or disposal.
●Do not leave used engine oil within
the reach of children.
NOTICE
■To prevent serious engine dam-
age
Check the oil level on a regular basis.
■When replacing the engine oil
●Be careful not to spill engine oil on
the vehicle components.
●Avoid overfilling, or the engine
could be damaged.
●Check the oil level on the dipstick
every time you refill the vehicle.
●Be sure the engine oil filler cap is
properly tightened.

3708-1. Specifications
*: If unleaded gasoline with a Research Octane Number of 98 is not available,
unleaded gasoline with a Research Octane Number of 95 may be used with no
detriment to engine durability or driveability.
■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 dipstick.
■Engine oil selection
“Toyota Genuine Motor Oil” is used
in your Toyota vehicle. Use Toyota
approved “Toyota Genuine Motor
Oil” or equivalent to satisfy the fol-
lowing grade and viscosity.
Oil grade:
0W-20, 5W-20 and 5W-30:
API grade SL “Energy-Conserving”,
SM “Energy-Conserving”, SN
“Resource-Conserving” or SN
PLUS “Resource-Conserving”; or
ILSAC GF-5 multigrade engine oil
Recommended viscosity (SAE):
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 is not available, SAE
5W-20 oil may be used. However, it
must be replaced with SAE 0W-20
Fuel
Fuel type
When you find these types of fuel label at
the gas station, use only the fuel with one
of the following labels.
EU area: Unleaded gasoline conforming
to European standard EN228 only
Except EU area: Unleaded gasoline only
Research Octane Number98 or higher*
Fuel tank capacity (Reference)50 L (13.2 gal., 11.0 Imp. gal.)

Preferred
Oil viscosity (0W-20 is explained
here as an example):
• The 0W in 0W-20 indicates the
characteristic of the oil which
allows cold startab ility. 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.
API Service Symbol
Top portion: “API SERVICE SN” means
the oil quality designation by American
Petroleum Institute (API).
Center portion: “SAE 0W-20” means
the SAE viscosity grade.
Lower portion: “Resource-Conserving”
means that the oil has fuel-saving and
environmental protection capabilities.
ILSAC Certification Mark
The International Lubricant Specifica-
tion Advisory Commi ttee (ILSAC) Certi-
fication Mark is displayed on the front of
the container.
