■Usable portable devices
●Qi standard wireless charge stan-
dard can be used on compatible
devices. However, not all Qi stan-
dard devices and compatibility are
guaranteed.
●Starting with mobile phones and
smartphones, it is aimed for low
power electrically supplied porta-
ble devices of no more than 5W.
●However, charging exceeding 5 W
is supported by the following por-
table devices.
• Charging at 7.5 W or less is sup-
ported by iPhone’s that support
7.5 W charging.
• Charging at 10 W or less is sup-
ported by portable devices compli-
ant with WPC standard Ver1.2.4.
■Using the smart key system
If the smart key system detects the
key while a device is being charged,
charging will be temporarily
stopped.
■When covers and accessories
are attached to portable devices
Do not charge in situations where
cover and accessories not able to
handle Qi are attached to the porta-
ble device. Depending on the type
of cover and acce ssory, it may not
be possible to charge. When
charging is not performed even with
the portable devic e placed on the
charge area, remove the cover and
accessories.
■While charging, noise enters
the AM radio
●Turn off the wireless charger and
confirm that the noise has
decreased. If the noise

Vehicle specifications
Genuine Motor Oil” or equiva-
lent to satisfy the following
grade and viscosity.
Oil grade:
ILSAC GF-6B multigrade engine
oil
Recommended viscosity:
SAE 0W-16
SAE 0W-16 is the best choice
for good fuel economy and good
starting in cold weather.
If SAE 0W-16 is not available,
SAE 0W-20 oil may be used.
However, it must be replaced
with SAE 0W-16 at the next oil
change.Outside temperature
Oil viscosity (0W-16 is explained
here as an example):
• The 0W in 0W-16 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 16 in 0W-16 indicates the viscosity characteristic of the
oil when the oil is at high tem-
perature. 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.
How to read oil container label:
API registered mark is added to
some oil containers to help you
select the oil you should use.
