WARNING
■Things that must not be carried in the trunk
The following things may cause a fire if loaded in the trunk:
●Receptacles containing gasoline
●Aerosol cans
■Storage precautions
Observe the following precautions. Failure to do so may prevent the pedals from being depressed properly, may
block the driver’s vision, or may result in items hitting the driver or passengers, possibly causing an accident.
●Stow cargo and luggage in the trunk
whenever possible.
●Do not place cargo or luggage in or on the following locations.

4-5. Using the driving support systems
WARNING
■Stopping distance when the ABS is operating may exceed that of normal conditions
The ABS is not designed to shorten the vehicle’s stopping distance. Always main-
tain a safe distance from the vehicle in front of you, especially in the following situations:
●When driving on dirt, gravel or snow-
covered roads
●When driving with tire chains
●When driving over bumps in the road
●When driving over roads with potholes or uneven surfaces
■TRC/VSC may not operate effec-tively when
Directional control and power may not be achievable while driving on slippery
road surfaces, even if the TRC/VSC sys- tem is operating.
Drive the vehicle carefully in conditions where stability and power may be lost.
■Hill- start assist control does not operate effectively when
●Do not overly rely on hill-start assist control. Hill-start assist control may
not operate effectively on steep inclines and roads covered with ice.
●Unlike the parking brake, hill-start assist control is not intended to hold
the vehicle stationary for an extended period of time. Do not attempt to use hill-start assist control to hold the vehi-
cle on an incline, as doing so may lead to an accident.
■When the TRC/VSC/ABS is acti-vated
The slip indicator light flashes. Always drive carefully. Reckless driving may
cause an accident. Exercise particular care when the indicator light flashes.
■When the TRC/VSC systems are turned off
Be especially careful and drive at a speed appropriate to the road conditions. As
these are the systems to help ensure vehicle stability and dr iving force, do not turn the TRC/VSC systems off unless
necessary.
■Secondary Collision Brake
Do not overly rely on the Secondary Col-
lision Brake. This system is designed to help reduce the possibility of further damage due to a secondary collision,
however, that effect changes according to various conditions. Overly relying on the system may result in death or serious
injury.
■Replacing tires
Make sure that all tires are of the speci-
fied size, brand, tread pattern and total load capacity. In addition, make sure that the tires are inflated to the recom-
mended tire inflation pressure level.
The ABS, TRC and VSC systems will not
function correctly if different tires are installed on the vehicle.
Contact any authorized Lexus retailer or Lexus authorized repairer, or any reliable
repairer for further information when replacing tires or wheels.
■Handling of tires and the suspension
Using tires with any kind of problem or modifying the suspension will affect the driving assist systems, and may cause a
system to malfunction.

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 Petro-
leum Institute (API).
Center portion: “SAE 5W-30” 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 Lubr icant Specification
Advisory Committee (ILSAC) Certifica-
tion Mark is displayed on the front of the
container.
LC500h
■Oil capacity (Drain and refill [Ref-
erence*])
*: 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-20, 5W-30 and 10W-30:
API grade SL “Energy-Conserving”,
SM “Energy-Conserving” or SN
“Resource-Conserving”; or ILSAC
multigrade engine oil
15W-40:
API grade SL, SM or SN multigrade
engine oil
Recommended viscosity (SAE):
SAE 0W-20 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-20 oil is not available, SAE
5W-30 oil may be used. However, it
should be replaced with SAE 0W-20
at the next oil change.
If you use SAE 10W-30 or a higher vis-
cosity engine oil in extremely low tem-
peratures, the engine may become
difficult to start, so SAE 0W-20 or
5W-30 engine oil is recommended.With filter5.7 L (6.0 qt., 5.0 Imp.qt.)
Without filter5.5 L (5.8 qt., 4.8 Imp.qt.)
