Engine oil selection
“Toyota  Genuine  Motor  Oil”  is  used  in  your  Toyota  vehicle.  Use
Toyota  approved  “Toyota  Genuine  Motor  Oil”  or  equivalent  to  sat -
isfy the following grade and viscosity.
Oil grade: ILSAC GF-5 multigrade engine oil
Recommended viscosity: SAE 0W-20
SAE  0W-20  is  the  best  choice
for  good  fuel  economy  and
good starting in cold weather.
If  SAE  0W-20  is  not  available,
SAE  5W-20  oil  may  be  used.
However,  it  must  be  replaced
with  SAE  0W-20  at  the  next  oil
change.
Oil viscosity (0W-20 is expl ained here as an example):
• The  0W  in  0W-20  indicates  the  characteristic  of  the  oil  which allows cold startability. Oils wi th a lower value before the W allow
for easier starting of the engine in cold weather.
• The  20  in  0W-20  indicates  the  vi scosity  characteristic  of  the oil
when the oil is at high temperature. An oil with a higher visco sity
(one  with  a  higher  value)  may  be  better  suited  if  the  vehicle  i s
operated at high speeds, or un der extreme load conditions.
