Engine oil consumption
A certain amount of engine oil will be consumed while driving. In the follow-
ing situations, oil consumption may increase, and engine oil may need to be
refilled in between oil maintenance intervals.
When the engine is new, for example directly after purchasing the vehicle
or after replacing the engine
If low quality oil or oil of an inappropriate viscosity is used
When driving at high engine speeds or with a heavy load, when towing,
or when driving while accelerating or decelerating frequently
When leaving the engine idling for a long time, or when driving frequently
through heavy traffic
After changing the engine oil (diesel engine only)
The engine oil maintenance should be reset. Perform the following proce-
dures:
1AD-FTV and 2AD-FHV engines
Vehicles without smart entry & start system:
Switch the display to trip meter A (P. 230) when the engine is run-
ning.
Turn the engine switch to the “LOCK” position.
While pressing the trip meter reset button, set the engine switch to
the “ON” position (but do not start the engine because otherwise
the reset mode will be canceled). Continue to press and hold the
button until the multi-information display indicates that the reset is
complete.
Vehicles with smart entry & start system:
Switch the display to trip meter A (P. 230) when the engine is run-
ning.
Turn the “ENGINE START STOP” switch off.
While pressing the trip meter reset button, set the “ENGINE START
STOP” switch to IGNITION ON mode (but do not start the engine
because otherwise the reset mode will be canceled). Continue to
press and hold the button until the multi-information display indi-
cates that the reset is complete.

CAUTION
Used engine oil
Used engine oil contains potentially harmful contaminants which may
cause skin disorders such as inflammation or skin cancer, so care should
be taken to avoid prolonged and repeated contact. To remove used engine
oil from your skin, wash thoroughly with soap and water.
Dispose of used oil and filters only in a safe and acceptable manner. Do
not dispose of used oil and filters in household trash, in sewers or onto the
ground. Call any authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly
qualified and equipped professional, service station or auto parts store for
information concerning recycling or disposal.
Do not leave used engine oil within the reach of children.
The message shown in the illustration will
appear on the display.
After 6 seconds, the system reset will be

NOTICE
To prevent serious engine damage
Check the oil level on regular basis.
When replacing the engine oil
Be careful not to spill engine oil on the vehicle components.
Avoid overfilling, as the engine could be damaged.
Check the oil level on the dipstick every time you refill the vehicle.
Be sure the engine oil filler cap is properly tightened.
Engine oil
1AD-FTV engines using diesel fuel that contains 500 ppm or less of sul-
phur (P. 120)
Do not use ACEA C2 as it will degrade the oil when used.
1AD-FTV (with DPF catalytic converter)
* and 2AD-FHV engines
(P. 120)
Using engine oil other than ACEA C2 may damage the catalytic con-
verter.
1WW-FHV engine (P. 120)
Using engine oil other than “Toyota Genuine Motor Oil 5W-30 Premium
Fuel Economy for 1WW/2WW engines” may damage the catalytic con-
verter.
If “Toyota Genuine Motor Oil 5W-30 Premium Fuel Economy for 1WW/
2WW engines” or any of the approved engine oils listed are not available
at the time, up to 1 L of ACEA C3 can be used to refill.
*: To distinguish the 1AD-FTV engine, ask any authorized Toyota dealer or
repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped professional.

Vehicle specifications
Recommended viscosity (SAE):
SAE 0W-20 is filled into your
Toyota 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 viscosity engine oil in
extremely low temperatures, the
engine may become difficult to
start, so SAE 0W-20, 5W-20 or
5W-30 engine oil is recom-
mended.
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.
Temperature range anticipated before
next oil change.Preferred
