Default Engine Oil

Hi guys,

I just joined the forum and was wondering if I can get some tips? I recently purchased a used IS350 and because of my previous car that I owned was a 2013 Accord. On the Accord I noticed that it will tell me what my engine oil level is at and will give me a message once it hits the 15% marker. But I've been trying to find something similar on my the cluster of the IS350 or will the light come on once it hits a certain mileage? Sorry for the noob questions, this is my first luxury sports car I got and I just want to make sure it's running smoothly. Thank you all for the advices!!

Same question here, for Acura/honda, we wait for the MID to tell us when to do the oil change (among other service items). For the Lexus IS, do you wait for this "icon pop up" or change it at 5K or 10K intervals?
