Oil capacity (Drain and refill



reference

)

: The engine oil capacity is a reference

quantity to be used when changing the
engine oil. Warm up the engine and turn
off the hybrid system, 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:
0W-16:
API grade SN “Resource-Conserv-
ing”, SN PLUS “Resource-Conserv-
ing” or SP “Resource-Conserving”; or
ILSAC GF-6B multigrade engine oil
0W-20 and 5W-30:

API grade SM “Energy-Conserving”,
SN “Resource-Conserving”, SN PLUS
“Resource-Conserving” or SP
“Resource-Conserving”; or ILSAC
GF-6A multigrade engine oil
Recommended viscosity (SAE):

Temperature range anticipated
before next oil change

Preferred

SAE 0W-16 is filled into your Lexus
vehicle at manufacturing, and the best
choice for good fuel economy and
good starting in cold weather.
If SAE 0W-16 oil is not available, SAE
0W-20 oil may be used. However, it
should be replaced with SAE 0W-16
at the next oil change.

8-1. Specifications

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 vis-

cosity 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 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 SP” means
the oil quality designation by American
Petroleum Institute (API).
Center portion: “SAE 0W-16” 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 Lubricant Specification
Advisory Committee (ILSAC) Certifica-
tion Mark is displayed on the front of the
container.

Use of ethanol blended gasoline in a

gasoline engine

Lexus allows the use of ethanol blended

gasoline where the ethanol content is up to

10%. Make sure that the ethanol blended

gasoline to be used has a Research Octane

Number that follows the above.

If your engine knocks

Consult any authorized Lexus retailer or

Lexus authorized repairer, or any reliable

repairer.

You may occasionally notice light knock-

ing for a short time while accelerating or

driving uphill. This is normal and there is

no need for concern.

Fuel information

When you find these types of fuel
label at the gas station, use only the
fuel with one of the following labels.

EU area:
You must only use unleaded gaso-
line conforming to European stan-
dard EN228.
Select unleaded gasoline with a
Research Octane Number of 95 or
higher for optimum engine perfor-
mance.

Except EU area:
You must only use unleaded gaso-
line.
Except Azerbaijan, Georgia, Rus-
sia, Ukraine and Kazakhstan:
Select unleaded gasoline with a
Research Octane Number of 95 or
higher for optimum engine perfor-
mance.
For Azerbaijan, Georgia, Russia,
Ukraine and Kazakhstan: Select

NOTICE

Notice on fuel quality

Do not use improper fuels. If improper

fuels are used, the engine will be dam-

aged.

Do not use gasoline with metallic addi-

tives, for example manganese, iron or

lead, otherwise it may cause damage

on your engine or emission control

system.

Do not add aftermarket fuel additives

which contain metallic additives.

EU area: Bioethanol fuel sold under

names such as “E50” or “E85” and

fuel containing a large amount of etha-

nol should not be used. The use of

these fuels will damage the vehicle’s

fuel system. In case of any doubt, ask

any authorized Lexus retailer or Lexus

authorized repairer, or any reliable

repairer.

Except EU area: Bioethanol fuel sold

under names such as “E50” or “E85”

and fuel containing a large amount of

ethanol should not be used. Your vehi-

cle can use gasoline mixed with 10%

max ethanol. The use of fuel with more

than 10% ethanol content (E10) will

damage the vehicle’s fuel system. You

must ensure that refueling is carried

out only from a source where fuel

specification and quality can be guar-

anteed. In case of any doubt, ask any

authorized Lexus retailer or Lexus

authorized repairer, or any reliable

repairer.

WARNING

Cautions during customization

As the hybrid system needs to be operat-

ing during customization, ensure that the

vehicle is parked in a place with ade-

quate ventilation. In a closed area such as

a garage, exhaust gases including harm-

ful carbon monoxide (CO) may collect

and enter the vehicle. This may lead to

death or a serious health hazard.

To prevent 12-volt battery discharge,

ensure that the hybrid system is operat-

ing while customizing features.
