the engine oil. Warm up and turn off the engine, wait more than 5 minutes,

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 following grade and viscosity.  
Oil grade:  
0W-20, 5W-30 and 10W-30:  
API grade SL “Energy-Conserving”, SM “Energy-Conserving” or SN  
“Resource-Conserving”; or ILSAC multigrade engine oil  
Recommended viscosity (SAE):  
SAE 0W-20 is the best choice  
for good fuel economy and  
good starting in cold weather.  
If you use SAE 10W-30 or a  
higher viscosity engine oil in  
extremely low temperatures,  
the engine may become difficult  
Temperature range anticipated before  
next oil change.  
to start, so SAE 0W-20 or 5W-  
30 engine oil is recommended.  
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 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 conditions.

How to read oil container labels:  
Either or both API registered marks are added to some oil contain-  
ers to help you select the oil you should use.

WARNING  
During customization  
As the engine needs to be running during customization, ensure that the  
vehicle is parked in a place with adequate ventilation. In a closed area such  
as a garage, exhaust gases including harmful carbon monoxide (CO) may  
collect and enter the vehicle. This may lead to death or a serious health  
hazard.

During customization  
To prevent battery discharge, ensure that the engine is running while cus-  
tomizing features.
