RECOMMENDED LUBRICANTS AND CAPACITIES  
To help achieve proper engine and powertrain performance and durability, use only lubricants of the proper quality.  
The correct lubricants also help promote engine efficiency that results in improved fuel economy.  
These lubricants and fluids are recommended for use in your vehicle.

*1 : Refer to the recommended SAE viscosity numbers on the next page.  
*2 : Engine oils labeled Energy Conserving Oil are now available. Along with other additional benefits, they contribute to fuel econ-  
omy by reducing the amount of fuel necessary to overcome engine friction. Often, these improvements are difficult to measure  
in everyday driving, but in a year’s time, they can offer significant cost and energy savings.  
*3 : Use only specified genuine Intelligent Variable Transmission(IVT) fluid. The use of non-specified fluid (even marked as compat-  
ible with genuine) could result in shift quality deterioration and vibrations, eventually, the transmission failure.(Refer to  
“Explanation of Scheduled Maintenance Items” in chapter 8.)

Temperature  
Engine oil viscosity (thickness) has  
an effect on fuel economy and cold  
weather operation (engine start and  
engine oil flowability). Lower viscosi-  
ty engine oils can provide better fuel  
economy and cold weather perform-  
ance, however, higher viscosity  
engine oils are required for satisfac-  
tory lubrication in hot weather. Using  
oils of any viscosity other than those  
recommended could result in engine  
damage. When choosing an oil, con-  
sider the range of temperature your  
vehicle will be operated in before the  
next oil change. Proceed to select  
the recommended oil viscosity from  
the chart.

*1 : For better fuel economy, it is recommended to use the engine oil of  
a viscosity grade SAE 0W-20 (API Latest(ILSAC Latest) or ACEA  
C5). However, if the engine oil is not available in your country, select  
the proper engine oil using the engine oil viscosity chart.
