The hood must engage on both
sides. This chapter describes all stan-
dard, country-specific and
optional features offered with
the series. It also describes fea-
tures and functions that are not
necessarily available in your
vehicle, e.g., due to the selected
options or country versions. This
also applies to safety-related
functions and systems. When
using these functions and sys-
tems, the applicable laws and
regulations must be observed.
Depending on the region, many
gas stations sell fuel that has
been customized to winter or
summer conditions. Fuel that is
available in winter,for instance
helps make a cold start easier.
For the best fuel efficiency, the
gasoline should be sulfur-free or
very low in sulfur content.

Fuels with a maximum ethanol
content of 25 %, i. e. E10 or
E25, may be used for refueling.
Ethanol should meet the follow-
ing quality standards:
US: ASTM 4806–xx
CAN: CGSB-3.511–xx

The use of poor-quality fuels may
result in harmful engine deposits
or damage. Additionally, problems
relating to drivability, starting and
stalling, especially under certain
environmental conditions such as
high ambient temperature and
high altitude, may occur.
If drivability prob
lems are encoun-
tered, we recommend switching
to a high quality gasoline brand
and a higher octane grade - AKI
number - for a few tank fills. To
avoid harmful engine deposits, it
is highly recommended to pur-
chase gasoline from Top Tier
retailers.
Failure to comply with these rec-
ommendations may result in the
need for unscheduled mainte-
nance.
NOTICE
Even small quantities of the
wrong fuel or wrong fuel additives
can damage the fuel system and
engine. Furthermore, the catalytic
converter is permanently dam-
aged. There is a risk of damage to
property. Do not refuel or add the
following in the case of gasoline
engines:
• Leaded gasoline.
Do not press the Start/Stop button
after refueling with the wrong fuel.
Contact your Toyota dealer.
• Metallic additives , for instance
manganese or iron.
NOTICE
Incorrect fuels can damage the
fuel system and the engine. There
is a risk of damage to property. Do
not use fuels with a higher per-
centage of ethanol than recom-
mended. Do not refuel with fuels
containing methanol, e.g. M5 to
M100.
NOTICE
Fuel that does not comply with the
minimum quality can compromise
engine function or cause engine
damage. There is a risk of dam-
age to property. Do not fill with
fuel that does not comply with the
minimum quality.

imum AKI Rating, the engine
may produce knocking sounds
when starting at high external
temperatures. This has no effect
on the engine life.
The engine oil consumption is
dependent on your driving style
and driving conditions.
Therefore, regularly check the
engine oil level after refueling by
taking a detailed measurement.
The engine oil consumption can
increase in the following situa-
tions, for example:
• Sporty driving style.
• Break-in of the engine.
• Idling of the engine.
• With use of engine oil types that are classified as not suit-
able.
Different vehicle messages
appear on the Control Display
depending on the engine oil
level. The electronic oil measurement
has two measuring principles:
• Monitoring.
• Detailed measurement.
When making frequent
short-distance trips or using a
dynamic driving style, for
instance when taking curves
aggressively, regularly perform
a detailed measurement.
■Concept
The engine oil level is monitored
electronically while driving and
can be shown on the Control
Display.
If the engine oil level is outside
its permissible operating range,
a vehicle message is displayed.
A red indicator light indi-
cates that the engine oil pres-
sure is too low.

■Functional requirements
A current measured value is
available after approx. 30 min-
utes of normal driving.
■Displaying the engine oil
level
Via Toyota Supra Command:
1 "My Vehicle"
2 "Vehicle status"
3 "Engine oil level"
The engine oil leve l is displayed.
■System limits
When making frequent
short-distance trips or using a
dynamic driving style, it may not
be possible to calculate a mea-
sured value. In this case, the
measured value for the last, suf-
ficiently long trip is displayed.
■Concept
The engine oil level is checked
when the vehicle is stationary
and displayed via a scale.
If the engine oil level is outside
its permissible operating range,
a vehicle message is displayed.
■General information
During the measurement, the
idle speed is increased some-
what.
■Functional requirements
• Vehicle is parked in a horizon- tal position. • Selector lever in selector lever
position N or P and accelera-
tor pedal not depressed.
• Engine is running and is at operating temperature.
■Performing a detailed mea-
surement
Via Toyota Supra Command:
1 "My Vehicle"
2 "Vehicle status"
3 "Engine oil level"
4 "Measure engine oil level"
5 "Start measurement"
The engine oil level is checked
and displayed via a scale.
Only add engine oil when the
message is displayed in the
instrument cluster. The quantity
to be added is indicated in the
message shown on the Control
Display.
Only add suitable types of
engine oil, refer to page 295.
Safely park the vehicle and
switch off drive-ready state
before adding engine oil.
Take care not to add too much
engine oil.

The use of undiluted windshield
washer concentrate or alco-
hol-based antifreeze can lead to
incorrect readings at tempera-
tures below +5°F/-15°C. This chapter describes all stan-
dard, country-specific and
optional features offered with
the series. It also describes fea-
tures and functions that are not
necessarily available in your
vehicle, e.g., due to the selected
options or country versions. This
also applies to safety-related
functions and systems. When
using these functions and sys-
tems, the applicable laws and
regulations must be observed.
The maintenance system indi-
cates required maintenance
measures, and thereby provides
support in maintaining road
safety and the operational reli-
ability of the vehicle.
In some cases, scopes and
intervals of the maintenance
system may vary according to
the country version. Replace-
ment work, spare parts, fuels
and lubricants, and wear materi-
als are calculated separately.

Sensors and special algorithms
take into account the driving
conditions of the vehicle. CBS
uses these to calculate the need
for maintenance.
The system makes it possible to
adapt the amount of mainte-
nance corresponding to your
user profile.
Information on service require-
ments, refer to page 141, can be
displayed on the Control Dis-
play.
Storage periods during which
the vehicle battery was discon-
nected are not taken into
account.
If this occurs, have a Toyota
dealer update the time-depen-
dent maintenance procedures,
such as checking brake fluid
and, if necessary, changing the
engine oil and the microfil-
ter/activated-charcoal filter.Please consult your "Owner's
Warranty Information Booklet"
or "Owner's Manual Supple-
ment" for additional information
on service requirements.
The manufacturer of your vehi-
cle recommends that mainte-
nance and repair be performed
by a Toyota dealer. Records of
regular maintenance and repair
work should be retained.
Scheduled maintenance should
be performed at specified inter-
vals according to the mainte-
nance schedule.
For details about maintenance
items and schedules, refer to
the "Scheduled Maintenance
Guide" or "Owner's Manual Sup-
plement".
