Seat Precautions
When returning a rear seat to its original position, place the seat belt in its normal position. Verify that the seat belt pulls out and retracts.
WARNING
Make sure the adjustable components of a seat are locked in place Adjustable seats and seatbacks that are not securely locked are dangerous. In a sudden stop or collision, the seat or seatback could move, causing injury. Make sure the adjustable components of the seat are locked in place by attempting to slide the seat forward and backward and rocking the seatback.
Never allow children to adjust a seat Allowing children to adjust a seat is dangerous as it could result in serious injury if a child's hands or feet become caught in the seat.
Do not drive with the seatback unlocked All of the seatbacks play an important role in your protection in a vehicle. Leaving the seatback unlocked is dangerous as it can allow passengers to be ejected or thrown around and baggage to strike occupants in a sudden stop or collision, resulting in severe injury. After adjusting the seatback at any time, even when there are no other passengers, rock the seatback to make sure it is locked in place.
Adjust the driver's seat only when the vehicle is stopped Adjusting the driver's seat while the vehicle is moving is dangerous. The driver could lose control of the vehicle and have an accident.
Do not modify or replace the front seats Modifying or replacing the front seats such as replacing the upholstery or loosening any bolts is dangerous. The front seats contain air bag components essential to the supplemental restraint system. Such modifications could damage the supplemental restraint system and result in serious injury. Consult your Toyota dealer if there is any need to remove or reinstall the front seats.
Do not drive with damaged front seats Driving with damaged front seats is dangerous. A collision, even one not strong enough to inflate the air bags, could damage the front seats which contain essential air bag components. If there was a subsequent collision, an air bag may not deploy which could lead to injuries. Always have your Toyota dealer inspect the front seats, front seat belt pretensioners and air bags after a collision.

WARNING
Do not drive with either front seats reclined Sitting in a reclined position while the vehicle is moving is dangerous because you do not get the full protection from seat belts. During sudden braking or a collision, you can slide under the lap belt and suffer serious internal injuries. For maximum protection, sit well back and upright.
Do not place an object such as a cushion between the seatback and 1 your back
Putting an object such as a cushion between the seatback and your back is dangerous because you will be unable to maintain a safe driving posture and the seat belt cannot function at its full capacity in a collision, which could result in a serious accident, injury or death.
Do not place objects under the seat The object could get stuck and cause the seat to not be fixed securely, and result in an accident.
Do not stack cargo higher than the seatbacks Stacking luggage or other cargo higher than the seatbacks is dangerous. During sudden braking or a collision, objects can fly around and become projectiles that may hit and injure passengers.
Make sure luggage and cargo is secured before driving Not securing cargo while driving is dangerous as it could move or be crushed during sudden braking or a collision and cause injury.
Never allow a passenger to sit or stand on the folded seatback while the vehicle is moving
Driving with a passenger on the folded seatback is dangerous. Allowing a child to sit up on the folded seatback while the vehicle is moving is particularly dangerous. In a sudden stop or even a minor collision, a child not in a proper seat or child-restraint system and seat belt could be thrown forward, back or even out of the vehicle resulting in serious injuries or death. The child in the baggage area could be thrown into other occupants and cause serious injury.
Never give the car keys to children and do not allow them to play in the vehicle
Playing with the folding rear seats is dangerous. Once the seatbacks are back up, a child in the trunk would not be able to get out the way they had entered. If you have small children, keep the seatbacks locked.

WARNING
Always leave your car locked and keep the car keys safely away from children Leaving your car unlocked or the keys in reach of children is dangerous. Children who find their way into the trunk through an unlocked rear seatback or an open trunk can become accidentally locked in the trunk. This could result in death or brain damage from heat prostration, particularly in the summer. Always lock the doors and the trunk, and as an added measure, keep the rear seatbacks locked, whether you have children in your home or not.
When operating a seat When operating a seat, be careful not to put your hands or fingers near the moving parts of the seat or on the side trim to prevent injury.
When adjusting a seatback of a front seat When returning a rear-reclined seatback of a front seat to its upright position, make sure you hold onto the seatback with your other hand while operating the lever. If the seatback is not supported, it will flip forward suddenly and could cause injury.
NOTICE
When moving the seats, make sure there is no cargo in the surrounding area. If the cargo gets caught it could damage the cargo.

Split Folding the Seatback
By lowering the rear seatback(s) the luggage compartment space can be expanded.
WARNING
Do not drive the vehicle with occupants on folded down seatback(s) or in the luggage compartment. Putting occupants in the luggage compartment is dangerous because seat belts cannot be fastened which could lead to serious injury or death during sudden braking or a collision.
Do not allow children to play inside the vehicle with the seatback(s) lowered. Allowing children to play in the vehicle with the seatback(s) folded down is dangerous. If a child enters the luggage compartment and the seatback(s) were raised back up, the child may become trapped in the luggage compartment which could lead to an accident.
Tightly secure cargo in the luggage compartment when it is transported with the seatback(s) folded down. Driving without tightly securing cargo and luggage is dangerous as it could move and become an obstruction to driving during emergency braking or a collision resulting in an unexpected accident.
When transporting cargo, do not allow the cargo to exceed the height of the seatback(s). Transporting cargo stacked higher than the seatback(s) is dangerous as visibility to the rear and sides of the vehicle is reduced which could interfere with driving operations and lead to an accident.

Seat Belt Precautions
Seat belts help to decrease the possibility of severe injury during accidents and sudden stops. Toyota recommends that the driver and all passengers always wear seat belts.
All of the seat belt retractors are designed to keep the lap/shoulder belts out of the way when not in use.
The driver's seat belt has no provisions for child-restraint systems and has only an emergency locking mode. The driver may wear it comfortably, and it will lock during a collision.
However, the front passenger's seat and all rear lap/shoulder belt retractors operate in two modes: emergency locking mode, and for child-restraint systems, automatic locking mode. While we recommend you put all children in the rear seats, if you must use the front passenger seat for a child, slide the front passenger seat as far back as possible and make sure any child-restraint system is secured properly.
WARNING
Always wear your seat belt and make sure all occupants are properly restrained Not wearing a seat belt is extremely dangerous. During a collision, occupants not wearing seat belts could hit someone or things inside the vehicle or even be thrown out of the vehicle. They could be seriously injured or even killed. In the same collision, occupants wearing seat belts would be much safer.

WARNING
Do not wear twisted seat belts
Twisted seat belts are dangerous. In a collision, the full width of the belt is
not available to absorb the impact. This puts more force on the bones
beneath the belt, which could cause serious injury or death. So, if your seat
belt is twisted, you must straighten the seat belt to remove any twists and to
allow the full width of the belt to be used.
1
Never use one seat belt on more than one person at a time
Using one seat belt for more than one person at a time is dangerous. A seat belt used in this way cannot spread the impact forces properly and the two passengers could be crushed together and seriously injured or even killed. Never use one belt for more than one person at a time and always operate the vehicle with each occupant properly restrained.
Do not operate a vehicle with a damaged seat belt
Using a damaged seat belt is dangerous. An accident could damage the belt webbing of the seat belt in use. A damaged seat belt cannot provide adequate protection in a collision. Have your Toyota dealer inspect all seat belt systems in use during an accident before they are used again.
Have your seat belts changed immediately if the pretensioner or load limiter has been expended
Always have your Toyota dealer immediately inspect the seat belt pretensioners and air bags after any collision. Like the air bags, the seat belt pretensioners and load limiters will only function once and must be replaced after any collision that caused them to deploy. A seat belt with an expended pretensioner or load limiter is still better than wearing no seat belt at all; however, if the seat belt pretensioners and load limiters are not replaced, the risk of injury in a collision will increase.
Positioning the Shoulder Portion of the Seat Belt
Improper positioning of the shoulder portion of the seat belt is dangerous. Always make sure the shoulder portion of the seat belt is positioned across your shoulder and near your neck, but never under your arm, on your neck, or on your upper arm.
Positioning the Lap Portion of the Seat Belt
The lap portion of the seat belt worn too high is dangerous. In a collision, this would concentrate the impact force directly on the abdominal area, causing serious injury. Wear the lap portion of the belt snugly and as low as possible.

Pregnant Women and Persons with Serious Medical Conditions Pregnant women should always wear seat belts. Ask your doctor for specific recommendations. The lap belt should be worn SNUGLY AND AS LOW AS POSSIBLE OVER THE HIPS. The shoulder belt should be worn across your shoulder properly, but never across the stomach area.
Persons with serious medical conditions also should wear seat belts. Check with your doctor for any special instructions regarding specific medical conditions.

Emergency Locking Mode
When the seat belt is fastened, it will always be in the emergency locking mode. In the emergency locking mode, the belt remains comfortable on the occupant and the retractor will lock in position during a collision. If the belt is locked and cannot be pulled out, retract the belt once, and 1 then try pulling it out slowly. If this fails, pull the belt strongly one time and loosen, then pull it out again slowly.
Seat Belt with Automatic Locking Mode: When the seat belt is fastened, it will always be in the emergency locking mode until it is switched to automatic locking mode by pulling it all the way out to its full length. If the belt feels tight and hinders comfortable movement while the vehicle is stopped or in motion, it may be in the automatic locking mode because the belt has been pulled too far out. To return the belt to the more comfortable emergency locking mode, wait until the vehicle has stopped in a safe, level area, retract the belt fully to convert it back to emergency locking mode and then extend it around you again.
Automatic Locking Mode (if equipped)
Always use the automatic locking mode to keep the child-restraint system from shifting to an unsafe position in the event of an accident. To enable seat belt automatic locking mode, pull it all the way out and connect it as instructed on the child-restraint system. It will retract down to the child-restraint system and stay locked on it. See the section on child restraint (P. 41).

Seat Belt Pretensioner and Load Limiting Systems
For optimum protection, the driver and front passenger seat belts are equipped with pretensioner and load limiting systems. For both these systems to work properly you must wear the seat belt properly.
Pretensioners
When a collision is detected, the pretensioners deploy simultaneously with the air bags.
The pretensioners deploy simultaneously with the air bags when a roll-over is also detected.
For deployment details, refer to the SRS Air Bag Deployment Criteria (P. 74).
The front seat belt retractors remove slack quickly as the air bags are expanding. Any time the air bags and seat belt pretensioners have fired they must be replaced.
A system malfunction or operation conditions are indicated by a warning. Refer to Warning/Indicator Lights on P. 164. Refer to Air Bag/Front Seat Belt Pretensioner System Warning Beep on P. 548.
In addition, the pretensioner system for the front passenger, like the front and side passenger air bag, is designed to only deploy when the front passenger occupant classification sensor detects a passenger sitting on the front passenger's seat.
For details, refer to the front passenger occupant classification sensor (P. 78).

Load limiter
The load limiting system releases belt webbing in a controlled manner to reduce belt force on the occupant's chest. While the most severe load on a seat belt occurs in frontal collisions, the load limiter has an automatic mechanical function and can activate in any accident mode with sufficient occupant movement.
1
Even if the pretensioners have not fired, the load limiting function must be checked by your Toyota dealer.
The pretensioner system may not operate depending on the type of the collision. For details, refer to the SRS Air Bag Deployment Criteria (P. 74)
Some smoke (non-toxic gas) will be released when the air bags and pretensioners deploy. This does not indicate a fire. This gas normally has no effect on occupants, however, those with sensitive skin may experience light skin irritation. If residue from the deployment of the air bags or the front pretensioner system gets on the skin or in the eyes, wash it off as soon as possible.

WARNING
Wear seat belts only as recommended in this owner's manual Incorrect positioning of the driver and front passenger seat belts is dangerous. Without proper positioning, the pretensioner and load limiting systems cannot provide adequate protection in an accident and this could result in serious injury. For more details about wearing seat belts, refer to "Fastening the seat belts" (P. 34).
Have your seat belts changed immediately if the pretensioner or load limiter has been expended
Always have your Toyota dealer immediately inspect the seat belt pretensioners and air bags after any collision.

Do not modify the components or wiring, or use electronic testing devices on the pretensioner system
Modifying the components or wiring of the pretensioner system, including the use of electronic testing devices is dangerous. You could accidentally activate it or make it inoperable which would prevent it from activating in an accident. The occupants or repairers could be seriously injured.
Properly dispose of the pretensioner system Improper disposal of the pretensioner system or a vehicle with non-deactivated pretensioners is dangerous. Unless all safety procedures are followed, injury could result. Have your Toyota dealer safely dispose of the pretensioner system or scrap a pretensioner system equipped vehicle.

Seat Belt Extender
1-2. Seat Belt Systems
39
If your seat belt is not long enough, even when fully extended, a seat belt extender may be available to you at no charge from your Toyota Dealer.
1
This extender will be only for you and for the particular vehicle and seat. Even if it plugs into other seat belts, it may not hold in the critical moment of a crash.
When ordering an extender, only order one that provides the necessary additional length to fasten the seat belt properly.
Please contact your Toyota Dealer for more information.
When not in use, remove the seat belt extender and store it in the vehicle. If the seat belt extender is left connected, the seat belt extender might get damaged as it will not retract with the rest of the seat belt and can easily fall out of the door when not in use and be damaged. In addition, the seat belt warning light will not illuminate and function properly.
WARNING
Do not use a seat belt extender unless it is necessary Using a seat belt extender when not necessary is dangerous. The seat belt will be too long and not fit properly. In an accident, the seat belt will not provide adequate protection and you could be seriously injured. Only use the extender when it is required to fasten the seat belt properly.
Do not use an improper extender Using a seat belt extender that is for another person or a different vehicle or seat is dangerous. The seat belt will not provide adequate protection and the user could be seriously injured in an accident. Only use the extender provided for you and for the particular vehicle and seat. NEVER use the extender in a different vehicle or seat. If you sell your Toyota, do not leave your seat belt extender in the vehicle. It could be used accidentally by the new owner of the vehicle. After removing the seat belt extender, discard it. Never use the seat belt extender in any other vehicle you may own in the future.

WARNING
Do not use an extender that is too long Using an extender that is too long is dangerous. The seat belt will not fit properly. In an accident, the seat belt will not provide adequate protection and you could be seriously injured. Do not use the extender or choose one shorter in length if the distance between the extender's buckle and the center of the user's body is less than 6 in. (150 mm).
Do not leave a seat belt extender connected to the buckle Leaving a seat belt extender connected to the buckle without using the seat belt is dangerous. When the seat belt extender is connected to the driver's seat belt buckle (or front passenger's seat belt buckle), the SRS driver's (or front passenger's) air bag system will determine that the driver (or front passenger) is wearing the seat belt even if the driver (or front passenger) is not wearing it. This condition could cause the driver's (or front passenger's) air bag to not activate correctly and result in death or serious injury in the event of collision. Always wear the seat belt with the seat belt extender.
Do not use the seat belt extender when installing a child-restraint system on the front or rear passenger seat
Using a seat belt extender to fasten a child-restraint system on any seat is dangerous. Always follow the child-restraint system manufacturer's installation instructions and never use a seat belt extender.

Child-Restraint Precautions
Toyota strongly urges the use of child-restraint systems for children small enough to use them.
You are required by law to use a child-restraint system for chil-
dren in the U.S. and Canada.
1
Check your local and state or provincial laws for specific
requirements regarding the safety of children riding in your
vehicle.
Whatever child-restraint system you consider, please pick the appropriate one for the age and size of the child, obey the law and follow the instructions that come with the individual child-restraint system.
A child who has outgrown child-restraint systems should sit in the rear and use seat belts, both lap and shoulder. If the shoulder belt crosses the neck or face, move the child closer to the center of the vehicle in the outboard seats, and towards the buckle on the right if the child is seated on the center seat.
Statistics confirm that the rear seat is the best place for all children up to 12 years of age, and more so with a supplemental restraint system (air bags).
A rear-facing child-restraint system should NEVER be used on the front seat with the air bag system activated. The front passenger's seat is also the least preferred seat for other child-restraint systems.
To reduce the chance of injuries caused by deployment of the front passenger air bag, the front passenger occupant classification sensor works as a part of the supplemental restraint system. This system deactivates the front passenger front and side air bags and also the front passenger seat belt pretensioner system when the front passenger air bag deactivation indicator light illuminates.
When an infant or small child sits on the front passenger seat, the system shuts off the front passenger front and side air bags and seat belt pretensioner system, so make sure the front passenger air bag deactivation indicator light illuminates.
YARIS_SEDAN_OM_OM99M18z_(U)
42
1-3. Child Restraint
Even if the front passenger air bag is shut off, Toyota strongly recommends that children be properly restrained and child-restraint systems of all kinds are properly secured on the rear seats which are the best place for children.
For more details, refer to "Front passenger occupant classification sensor" (P. 78).
Your Toyota is equipped with LATCH lower anchors for attachment of specially designed LATCH child-restraint systems in the rear seats. When using these anchors to secure a child-restraint system, refer to "Using LATCH Lower Anchor" (P. 57).
WARNING
Use the correct size child-restraint system
For effective protection in vehicle accidents and sudden stops, a child must be properly restrained using a seat belt or child-restraint system depending on age and size. If not, the child could be seriously injured or even killed in an accident.
Follow the manufacturer's instructions and always keep the childrestraint system buckled down
An unsecured child-restraint system is dangerous. In a sudden stop or a collision it could move causing serious injury or death to the child or other occupants. Make sure any child-restraint system is properly secured in place according to the child-restraint system manufacturer's instructions. When not in use, remove it from the vehicle or fasten it with a seat belt, or latch it down to BOTH LATCH lower anchors for LATCH child-restraint systems and the corresponding tether anchor.
Always secure a child in a proper child-restraint system
Holding a child in your arms while the vehicle is moving is extremely dangerous. No matter how strong the person may be, he or she cannot hold onto a child in a sudden stop or collision and it could result in serious injury or death to the child or other occupants. Even in a moderate accident, the child may be exposed to air bag forces that could result in serious injury or death to the child, or the child may be slammed into an adult, causing injury to both child and adult.

WARNING
Do not allow a child or anyone to lean over or against the side window of a vehicle with side and curtain air bags
It is dangerous to allow anyone to lean over or against the side window, the area of the front passenger seat, the front and rear window pillars and the roof edge along both sides from which the side and curtain air bags deploy, even if a child-restraint system is used. The impact of inflation from a side or 1 curtain air bag could cause serious injury or death to an out of position child. Furthermore, leaning over or against the front door could block the side and curtain air bags and eliminate the advantages of supplemental protection. With the front air bag and the additional side air bag that comes out of the front seat, the rear seat is always a better location for children. Take special care not to allow a child to lean over or against the side window, even if the child is seated in a child-restraint system.
Never use one seat belt on more than one person at a time Using one seat belt for more than one person at a time is dangerous. A seat belt used in this way cannot spread the impact forces properly and the two passengers could be crushed together and seriously injured or even killed. Never use one belt for more than one person at a time and always operate the vehicle with each occupant properly restrained.
To prevent burns A seat belt or child-restraint system can become very hot in a closed vehicle during warm weather. To avoid burning yourself or a child, check them before you or your child touches them.

Installing Child-Restraint Systems
Accident statistics reveal that a child is safer in the rear seat. The front passenger's seat is clearly the worst choice for any child under 12, and with rear-facing child-restraint systems it is clearly unsafe due to air bags.
Some child-restraint systems now come with tethers and therefore must be installed on the seats that take tethers to be effective. In your Toyota, tethered child-restraint systems can only be accommodated in the three positions on the rear seat. Some child-restraint systems also employ specially designed LATCH attachments; refer to "Using LATCH Lower Anchor" (P. 57).
Even if your vehicle is equipped with front passenger occupant classification sensor (P. 78), which automatically deactivates the front passenger air bag, a rear seat is the safest place for a child of any age or size.
WARNING
Tethered Child-Restraint Systems Work Only on Tether-Equipped Rear Seats Installation of a tether equipped child-restraint system in the front passenger's seat defeats the safety design of the system and will result in an increased chance of serious injury if the child-restraint system goes forward without benefit of being tethered. Place tether equipped child-restraint systems where there are tether anchors.

When you remove the childrestraint system, be sure the belt fully retracts to return the system to emergency locking mode before occupants use the seat belts.
6 If your child-restraint system requires the use of a tether strap, refer to the manufacturer's instructions to hook and tighten the tether strap.
Follow the child-restraint system manufacturer's instructions carefully. If you are not sure whether you have a LATCH system or tether, check in the childrestraint system manufacturer's instructions and follow them accordingly. Depending on the type of child-restraint system, it may use LATCH system instead of seat belts or if the belt goes across the child's chest, may recommend against using automatic locking mode.

If You Must Use the Front Seat for Children
If you cannot put all children in the rear seat, at least put the smallest children in the rear and be sure the largest child up front uses the shoulder belt over the shoulder.
NEVER put a rear-facing child-restraint system on the front passenger seat whether your vehicle is equipped with a occupant classification 1 sensor or not.
This seat is also not set up for tethered child-restraint systems, put them in one of the rear seat positions set up with tether anchors.
Likewise the LATCH child-restraint system cannot be secured in the front passenger's seat and should be used in the rear seat.
Do not allow anyone to sleep against the side window since your vehicle has side and curtain air bags, it could cause serious injuries to an out of position occupant. As children more often sleep in cars, it is better to put them in the rear seat.
If installing the child-restraint system on the front seat is unavoidable, follow these instructions when using a front-facing child-restraint system in the front passenger's seat.
To check if your front seats have side air bags: The vehicle equipped with side air bag will have a "SRS AIRBAG" tag on the outboard shoulder of the front seats.
To check if your vehicle has curtain air bags: The vehicle equipped with curtain air bag will have an "SRS AIRBAG" marking on the window pillars along the roof edge.

WARNING
Always move the front passenger seat as far back as possible if installing a front-facing child-restraint system on it is unavoidable
As your vehicle has front air bags and doubly so because your vehicle has side air bags, a front-facing child-restraint system should be put on the front passenger seat only when it is unavoidable.
Even if the front passenger air bag deactivation indicator light illuminates, always move the seat as far back as possible, because the force of a deploying air bag could cause serious injury or death to the child.
Never use a rear-facing child-restraint system in the front seat with an air bag that could deploy
Rear-facing child-restraint systems on the front seat are particularly dangerous.
Even in a moderate collision, the child-restraint system can be hit by a deploying air bag and moved violently backward resulting in serious injury or death to the child. Even though you may feel assured that the front passenger air bag will not deploy based on the fact that the front passenger air bag deactivation indicator light illuminates, you should not use a rear-facing child-restraint system in the front seat.
Do not allow a child or anyone to lean over or against the side window of a vehicle with side and curtain air bags
It is dangerous to allow anyone to lean over or against the side window, the area of the front passenger seat, the front and rear window pillars and the roof edge along both sides from which the side and curtain air bags deploy, even if a child-restraint system is used. The impact of inflation from a side or curtain air bag could cause serious injury or death to an out of position child. Furthermore, leaning over or against the front door could block the side and curtain air bags and eliminate the advantages of supplemental protection. With the front air bag and the additional side air bag that comes out of the front seat, the rear seat is always a better location for children. Take special care not to allow a child to lean over or against the side window, even if the child is seated in a child-restraint system.

WARNING
Do not seat a child in a child-restraint system on the front passenger seat if the front passenger air bag deactivation indicator light does not illuminate
While it is always better to install any child-restraint system on the rear seat, it is imperative that a child-restraint system ONLY be used on the front passenger seat if the deactivation indicator light illuminates when the child is 1 seated in the child-restraint system (P. 78). Seating a child in a childrestraint system installed on the front passenger seat with the front passenger air bag deactivation indicator light not illuminated is dangerous. If this indicator light does not illuminate, this means that the front passenger front and side air bags, and seat belt pretensioner are ready for deployment. If an accident were to deploy an air bag, a child in a child-restraint system sitting in the front passenger seat could be seriously injured or killed. If the indicator light does not illuminate after seating a child in a child-restraint system on the front passenger seat, seat a child in a child-restraint system on the rear seat and consult your Toyota dealer as soon as possible.
Using LATCH Lower Anchor
Your Toyota is equipped with LATCH lower anchors for attachment of specially designed LATCH child-restraint systems in the rear seats. Both anchors must be used, otherwise the seat will bounce around and put the child in danger. Most LATCH child-restraint systems must also be used in conjunction with a tether to be effective. If they have a tether you must use it to better assure your child's safety.
WARNING
Follow the manufacturer's instructions for the use of the child-restraint system An unsecured child-restraint system is dangerous. In a sudden stop or a collision it could move causing serious injury or death to the child or other occupants. Make sure the child-restraint system is properly secured in place according to the child-restraint system manufacturer's instructions.

WARNING
Never attach two child-restraint systems to the same LATCH lower anchor
Attaching two child-restraint systems to the same LATCH lower anchor is dangerous. In a collision, one anchor may not be strong enough to hold two child-restraint system attachments, and it may break, causing serious injury or death. If you use the seat position for another child-restraint system when an outboard LATCH position is occupied, use the center seat belts instead, and the tether if tether-equipped.
Make sure the child-restraint system is properly secured
An unsecured child-restraint system is dangerous. In a sudden stop or a collision it could move causing serious injury or death to the child or other occupants. Follow the child-restraint system manufacturer's instructions on belt routing to secure the seat just as you would with a child in it so that nobody is tempted to put a child in an improperly secured seat later on. When not in use, remove it from the vehicle or fasten it with a seat belt, or latch it down to BOTH LATCH lower anchors for LATCH child-restraint systems.
Make sure there are no seat belts or foreign objects near or around the LATCH child-restraint system
Not following the child-restraint system manufacturer's instructions when installing the child-restraint system is dangerous. If seat belts or a foreign object prevent the child-restraint system from being securely attached to the LATCH lower anchors and the child-restraint system is installed improperly, the child-restraint system could move in a sudden stop or collision causing serious injury or death to the child or other occupants. When installing the child-restraint system, make sure there are no seat belts or foreign objects near or around the LATCH lower anchors. Always follow the child-restraint system manufacturer's instructions.
Installation on rear outboard seats
1 First, adjust the front seat to allow clearance between the childrestraint system and the front seat (P. 21).
2 Make sure the seatback is securely latched by pushing it back until it is fully locked.

Installation on rear center seat
The LATCH lower anchors at the center of the rear seat are much further apart than the sets of LATCH lower anchors for child-restraint system installation at other seating positions. Child-restraint systems with rigid LATCH attachments cannot be installed on the center seating position. Some LATCH equipped child-restraint systems can be placed in the center position and will reach the nearest LATCH lower anchors which are 14.2 in. (360 mm) apart. LATCH compatible childrestraint systems (with attachments on belt webbing) can be used at this seating position only if the child-restraint system manufacturer's instructions state that the child-restraint system can be installed to LATCH lower anchors that are 14.2 in. (360 mm) apart. Do not attach two child-restraint systems to the same LATCH lower anchor. If your child-restraint system has a tether, it must also be used for your child's optimum safety.
The procedure for installation on the rear outboard seats is the same.

1-4. SRS Air Bags
Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) Precautions
The front and side supplemental restraint systems (SRS) include up to 6 air bags. Please verify which kinds of air bags are equipped on your vehicle by locating the "SRS AIRBAG" location indicators. These indicators are visible in the area where the air bags are installed.
The air bags are installed in the following locations: The steering wheel hub (driver air bag) The front passenger dashboard (front passenger air bag) The outboard sides of the front seatbacks (side air bags) (if
equipped) The front and rear window pillars, and the roof edge along both
sides (curtain air bags) (if equipped)
Vehicles with the Front Passenger Occupant Classification System have a sensor which detects an impending roll-over accident.
The air bag supplemental restraint systems are designed to provide supplemental protection in certain situations so seat belts are always important in the following ways:
Without seat belt usage, the air bags cannot provide adequate protection during an accident. Seat belt usage is necessary to: Keep the occupant from being thrown into an inflating air bag. Reduce the possibility of injuries during an accident that is not
designed for air bag inflation, such as rear impact. Reduce the possibility of injuries in frontal, near frontal or side colli-
sions or roll-over accidents that are not severe enough to activate the air bags. Reduce the possibility of being thrown from your vehicle. Reduce the possibility of injuries to lower body and legs during an accident because the air bags provide no protection to these parts of the body. Hold the driver in a position which allows better control of the vehicle.

Small children must be protected by a child-restraint system as stipulated by law in every state and province. In certain states and provinces, larger children must use a child-restraint system (P. 41).
Carefully consider which child-restraint system is necessary for your child and follow the installation directions in this Owner's Manual as well as the child-restraint system manufacturer's instructions.
If it becomes necessary to have the components or wiring system for the supplementary restraint system modified to accommodate a person with certain medical conditions in accordance with a certified physician, contact your Toyota dealer.
When an air bag deploys, a loud inflation noise can be heard and some smoke will be released. Neither is likely to cause injury, however, the texture of the air bags may cause light skin injuries on body parts not covered with clothing through friction.
Should you sell your Toyota, we urge you to tell the new owner of its air bag systems and that familiarization with all instructions about them, from the Owner's Manual, is important.

1-4. SRS Air Bags
WARNING
Seat belts must be worn in air bag equipped vehicles Depending only on the air bags for protection during an accident is dangerous. Alone, air bags may not prevent serious injuries. The appropriate air bags can be expected to inflate only in the first accident, such as frontal, near frontal or side collisions or roll-over accidents that are at least moderate. Vehicle occupants should always wear seat belts.
Children should not ride in the front passenger seat Placing a child, 12 years or under, in the front seat is dangerous. The child could be hit by a deploying air bag and be seriously injured or even killed. A sleeping child is more likely to lean against the door and be hit by the side air bag in moderate collision to the front-passenger side of the vehicle. Whenever possible, always secure a child 12 years and under on the rear seats with an appropriate child-restraint system for the child's age and size.
Never use a rear-facing child-restraint system in the front seat with an air bag that could deploy
Rear-facing child-restraint systems on the front seat are particularly dangerous even though you may feel assured that a front passenger air bag will not deploy based on the fact that the front passenger air bag deactivation indicator light illuminates. The child-restraint system can be hit by a deploying air bag and moved violently backward resulting in serious injury or death to the child.
Do not sit too close to the driver and front passenger air bags Sitting too close to the driver and front passenger air bag modules or placing hands or feet on them is extremely dangerous. The driver and front passenger air bags inflate with great force and speed. Serious injuries could occur if someone is too close. The driver should always hold onto only the rim of the steering wheel. The front seat passenger should keep both feet on the floor. Front seat occupants should adjust their seats as far back as possible and always sit upright against the seatbacks with seat belts worn properly.

WARNING
Sit in the center of the seat and wear seat belts properly
Sitting too close to the side air bag modules or placing hands on them, or sleeping up against the door or hanging out the windows is extremely dangerous. The side and curtain air bags inflate with great force and speed directly expanding along the door on the side the car is hit. Serious injury could occur if someone is sitting too close to the door or leaning against a 1 window, or if rear seat occupants grab the sides of the front seatbacks. Give the side and curtain air bags room to work by sitting in the center of the seat while the vehicle is moving with seat belts worn properly.
Do not attach objects on or around the area where driver and front passenger air bags deploy
Attaching an object to the driver and front passenger air bag modules or placing something in front of them is dangerous. In an accident, an object could interfere with air bag inflation and injure the occupants.
Do not attach objects on or around the area where a side air bag deploys
Attaching objects to the front seat in such a way as to cover the outboard side of the seat in any way is dangerous. In an accident the object could interfere with the side air bag, which inflates from the outboard side of the front seats, impeding the added protection of the side air bag system or redirecting the air bag in a way that is dangerous. Furthermore, the bag could be cut open releasing the gas.
Do not hang net bags, map pouches or backpacks with side straps on the front seats. Never use seat covers on the front seats. Always keep the side air bag modules in your front seats free to deploy in the event of a side collision.
Do not attach objects on or around the area where a curtain air bag deploys
Attaching objects to the areas where the curtain air bag activates such as on the windshield glass, side door glass, front and rear window pillars and along the roof edge and assist grips is dangerous. In an accident the object could interfere with the curtain air bag, which inflates from the front and rear window pillars and along the roof edge, impeding the added protection of the curtain air bag system or redirecting the air bag in a way that is dangerous. Furthermore, the bag could be cut open releasing the gas.
Do not place hangers or any other objects on the assist grips. When hanging clothes, hang them on the coat hook directly. Always keep the curtain air bag modules free to deploy in the event of a side collision or roll-over accident.

WARNING
Do not touch the components of the supplemental restraint system after the air bags have inflated
Touching the components of the supplemental restraint system after the air bags have inflated is dangerous. Immediately after inflation, they are very hot. You could get burned.
Never install any front-end equipment to your vehicle
Installation of front-end equipment, such as frontal protection bar (kangaroo bar, bull bar, push bar, or other similar devices), snowplow, or winches, is dangerous. The air bag crash sensor system could be affected. This could cause air bags to inflate unexpectedly, or it could prevent the air bags from inflating during an accident. Front occupants could be seriously injured.
Do not modify the suspension
Modifying the vehicle suspension is dangerous. If the vehicle's height or the suspension is modified, the vehicle will be unable to accurately detect a collision or roll-over accident resulting in incorrect or unexpected air bag deployment and the possibility of serious injuries.
To prevent false detection by the air bag sensor system, heed the following
Do not use tires or wheels other than those specified for your Toyota: Use of any tire or wheel other than those specified for your Toyota (P. 596) is dangerous. Use of such wheels will prevent the vehicle's accident detections system from accurately detecting a collision or roll-over accident resulting in incorrect or unexpected air bag deployment and the possibility of serious injuries.
Do not overload your vehicle: Overloading your vehicle is dangerous as it could prevent the air bag crash sensor system from accurately detecting a collision or roll-over accident resulting in incorrect or unexpected air bag deployment and the possibility of serious injuries. The gross axle weight rating (GAWR) and the gross vehicle weight rating (GVWR) for your vehicle are on the Motor Vehicle Safety Standard Label on the driver's door frame. Do not exceed these ratings.
Do not drive the vehicle off-road: Driving your Toyota off-road is dangerous because the vehicle has not been designed to do so. Driving the vehicle off-road could prevent the air bag crash sensor system from accurately detecting a collision or roll-over accident resulting in incorrect or unexpected air bag deployment and the possibility of serious injuries.

WARNING
Do not modify a front door or leave any damage unrepaired. Always have your Toyota dealer inspect a damaged front door
Modifying a front door or leaving any damage unrepaired is dangerous. Each front door has a side crash sensor as a component of the supplemental restraint system. If holes are drilled in a front door, a door speaker is left removed, or a damaged door is left unrepaired, the sensor could be 1 adversely affected causing it to not detect the pressure of an impact correctly during a side collision. If a sensor does not detect a side impact correctly, the side and curtain air bags and the front seat belt pretensioner may not operate normally which could result in serious injury to occupants.
Do not modify the supplemental restraint system
Modifying the components or wiring of the supplemental restraint system is dangerous. You could accidentally activate it or make it inoperable. Do not make any modifications to the supplemental restraint system. This includes installing trim, badges, or anything else over the air bag modules. It also includes installing extra electrical equipment on or near system components or wiring. Your Toyota dealer can provide the special care needed in the removal and installation of front seats. It is important to protect the air bag wiring and connections to assure that the bags do not accidentally deploy, and that the front passenger occupant classification system and the seats retain an undamaged air bag connection.
Do not place luggage or other objects under the front seats
Placing luggage or other objects under the front seats is dangerous. The components essential to the supplemental restraint system could be damaged, and in the event of a side collision, the appropriate air bags may not deploy, which could result in death or serious injury. To prevent damage to the components essential to the supplemental restraint system, do not place luggage or other objects under the front seats.
Do not operate a vehicle with damaged air bag/seat belt pretensioner system components
Expended or damaged air bag/seat belt pretensioner system components must be replaced after any collision which caused them to deploy or damage them. Only a trained Authorized Toyota Dealer can fully evaluate these systems to see that they will work in any subsequent accident. Driving with an expended or damaged air bag or pretensioner unit will not afford you the necessary protection in the event of any subsequent accident which could result in serious injury or death.

How the SRS Air Bags Work
Your Toyota is equipped with the following types of SRS air bags. SRS air bags are designed to work together with the seat belts to help to reduce injuries during an accident. The SRS air bags are designed to provide further protection for passengers in addition to the seat belt functions. Be sure to wear seat belts properly.
Seat Belt Pretensioners
The front seat belt pretensioners are designed to deploy in moderate or severe frontal, near frontal collisions.
In addition, the pretensioners operate when a side collision (only on the side in which the collision occurs) or a roll-over accident is detected. The pretensioners operate differently depending on what types of air bags are equipped. For details on the seat belt pretensioner operation, refer to the SRS Air Bag Deployment Criteria (P. 74).
Driver Air Bag
The driver's air bag is mounted in the steering wheel.
When air bag crash sensors detect a frontal impact of greater than moderate force, the driver's air bag inflates quickly helping to reduce injury mainly to the driver's head or chest caused by directly hitting the steering wheel.
For more details about air bag deployment, refer to "SRS Air Bag Deployment Criteria" (P. 74).
The driver's dual-stage air bag controls air bag inflation in two energy stages. During an impact of moderate severity, the driver's air bag deploys with lesser energy, whereas during more severe impacts, it deploys with more energy.

Front Passenger Air Bag
The front passenger air bag is mounted in the front passenger dashboard.
The inflation mechanism for the
front passenger air bag is the
same as the driver's air bag, as
1
mentioned above.
For more details about air bag deployment, refer to "SRS Air Bag Deployment Criteria" (P. 74).
In addition, the front passenger air bag is designed to only deploy when the front passenger occupant classification sensor detects a passenger sitting on the front passenger's seat. For details, refer to the front passenger occupant classification system (P. 78).
Side Air Bags
The side air bags are mounted in the outboard sides of the front seatbacks.
When the air bag crash sensors detect a side impact of greater than moderate force, the system inflates the side air bag only on the side in which the vehicle was hit. The side air bag inflates quickly to reduce injury to the driver or front passenger's chest caused by directly hitting interior parts such as a door or window.
For more details about air bag deployment, refer to "SRS Air Bag Deployment Criteria" (P. 74).
In addition, the front passenger side bag is designed to only deploy when the front passenger occupant classification sensor detects a passenger sitting on the front passenger's seat. For details, refer to the front passenger occupant classification system (P. 78).

1-4. SRS Air Bags
Curtain Air Bags
The curtain air bags are mounted in the front and rear window pillars, and the roof edge along both sides.
When the air bag crash sensors detect a side impact of greater than moderate force, the curtain air bag inflates quickly and helps to reduce injury mainly to the rear outboard passenger's head caused by directly hitting interior parts such as a door or window.
For more details about air bag deployment, refer to "SRS Air Bag Deployment Criteria" (P. 74).
In a side impact
Greater than moderate impact to one side of the vehicle will cause the curtain air bag on that side only to inflate.
Only one side curtain air bag will deploy on the side of the vehicle that receives the force of an impact.
In a roll-over
In response to a vehicle roll-over, both curtain air bags inflate.
Both curtain air bags will deploy after the roll-over accident is detected.

Front Passenger Occupant Classification System
First, please read "Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) Precautions" (P. 62) carefully.
Front Passenger Occupant Classification Sensor
Your vehicle is equipped with a front passenger occupant classification sensor as a part of the supplemental restraint system. This sensor is equipped in the front passenger's seat cushion. This sensor measures the electrostatic capacity of the front passenger's seat. The SAS unit is designed to prevent the front passenger front and side air bags and seat belt pretensioner system from deploying if the front passenger air bag deactivation indicator light turns on.
To reduce the chance of injuries caused by deployment of the front passenger air bag, the system deactivates the front passenger front and side air bags and also the seat belt pretensioner system when the front passenger air bag deactivation indicator light turns on. Refer to the following table for the front passenger air bag deactivation indicator light illumination conditions.
This system shuts off the front passenger front and side air bags and seat belt pretensioner system, so make sure the front passenger air bag deactivation indicator light turns on according to the following table.
The air bag/front seat belt pretensioner system warning light flashes and the front passenger air bag deactivation indicator light illuminates if the sensors have a possible malfunction. If this happens, the front passenger front and side air bags and seat belt pretensioner system will not deploy.

If the front passenger air bag deactivation indicator light does not turn on when the ignition is switched ON and does not turn on as indicated in the front passenger air bag deactivation indicator light on/off condition chart, do not allow an occupant to sit in the front passenger seat and consult your Toyota dealer as soon as possible. The system may not work properly in an accident.
The system requires about 10 seconds to alternate between turning the front passenger front and side air bags and seat belt pretensioner system on or off.
The front passenger air bag deactivation indicator light may turn on repeatedly if luggage or other items are put on the front passenger seat, or if the temperature of the vehicle's interior changes suddenly.
The front passenger air bag deactivation indicator light may turn on for 10 seconds if the electrostatic capacity on the front passenger seat changes.
The air bag/front seat belt pretensioner system warning light might turn on if the front passenger seat receives a severe impact.
If the front passenger air bag deactivation indicator light does not turn on after installing a child-restraint system on the front passenger seat, first, reinstall your child-restraint system according to the procedure in this owner's manual. Then, if the front passenger air bag deactivation indicator light still does not turn on, install the child-restraint system on the rear seat and consult your Toyota dealer as soon as possible.
If the front passenger air bag deactivation indicator light turns on when an occupant is seated directly in the front passenger seat, have the passenger re-adjust their posture by sitting with their feet on the floor, and then re-fastening the seat belt. If the front passenger air bag deactivation indicator light remains turned on, move the passenger to the rear seat. If sitting in the rear seat is not possible, slide the front passenger seat as far back as possible. Consult your Toyota dealer as soon as possible.

WARNING
Do not allow an occupant in the front passenger's seat to sit with a posture which makes it difficult for the front passenger occupant classification sensor to detect the occupant correctly
Sitting in the front passenger's seat with a posture which makes it difficult for the front passenger occupant classification sensor to detect the occupant correctly is dangerous. If the front passenger occupant classification 1 sensor cannot detect the occupant sitting on the front passenger's seat correctly, the front passenger front and side air bags and pretensioner system may not operate (deploy) or they may operate (deploy) accidentally. The front passenger will not have the supplementary protection of the air bags or the accidental operation (deployment) of the air bags could result in serious injury or death. Under the following conditions, the front passenger occupant classification sensor cannot detect a passenger sitting on the front passenger's seat correctly and the deployment/non-deployment of the air bags cannot be controlled as indicated in the front passenger air bag deactivation indicator light on/off condition chart. For example:
A front passenger is seated as shown in the following figure:
A rear passenger pushes up on the front passenger seat with their feet.
Luggage or other items placed under the front passenger seat or between the front passenger seat and driver seat that push up the front passenger seat bottom.
An object, such as a seat cushion, is put on the front passenger's seat or between the passenger's back and the seatback.

Trunk Lid
WARNING
Never allow a person to ride in the trunk Allowing a person to ride in the trunk is dangerous. The person in the trunk could be seriously injured or killed during sudden braking or a collision.
Do not drive with the trunk lid open Exhaust gas in the cabin of a vehicle is dangerous. An open trunk lid in a moving vehicle will cause exhaust gas to be drawn into the cabin. This gas contains CO (carbon monoxide), which is colorless, odorless, and highly poisonous, and it can cause loss of consciousness and death. Moreover, an open trunk lid could cause occupants to fall out in an accident.
Do not stack or leave loaded luggage unsecured in the luggage compartment Otherwise, the luggage may move or collapse, resulting in injury or an accident. In addition, do not load luggage higher than the seatbacks. It may affect the side or rear field of view.
Using the trunk Before opening the trunk lid, remove any snow and ice accumulation on it. Otherwise, the trunk lid could close under the weight of the snow and ice resulting in injury.
Be careful when opening/closing the trunk lid during strong winds. If a strong gust blows against the trunk lid, it could close suddenly resulting in injury.
Fully open the trunk lid and make sure that it stays open. If the trunk lid is only opened partially, it could slam shut by vibration or wind gusts resulting in injury.
When loading or unloading luggage in the trunk, turn off the engine. Otherwise, you could get burned by the heat of the exhaust gas.

Inside Trunk Release Lever (if equipped)
Your vehicle is equipped with an inside trunk release lever that provides a means of escape for children and adults in the event they become locked inside the trunk. No matter how careful adults might be with keys and locking their cars, parents should be aware that children may be tempted to play around vehicles and use the trunk as a hiding place.
Adults are advised to familiarize themselves with the operation and location of the inside trunk release lever so that all children can be told about it in an appropriate way, keeping in mind that most vehicles do not have such levers.

WARNING
Close the trunk lid, be sure the seat backs are latched and do not allow children to play inside the vehicle
Leaving the trunk lid open or leaving children in the vehicle with the keys is dangerous. Children could open the trunk lid and climb inside resulting in possible injury or death from heat exposure.
Always keep the car from being a tempting place to play by latching the rear seats, doors and the trunk, and keeping the keys where children can not play with them
Leaving children or animals unattended in a parked vehicle is dangerous. Babies left sleeping and children who lock themselves in cars or trunks can die very quickly from heat prostration. Do not leave your children or pets alone in a car at any time. Do not leave the car, the rear folding seats or the trunk unlocked.

2-4. Fuel and Emission
Fuel and Engine Exhaust Precautions
Fuel Requirements
Vehicles with catalytic converters or oxygen sensors must use ONLY UNLEADED FUEL, which will reduce exhaust emissions and keep spark plug fouling to a minimum. This vehicle will perform best with fuel listed in the table.
Fuel
Octane Rating* (Anti-knock index)
Regular unleaded fuel
87 [(R
M)/2 method] or above (91 RON or above)
* U.S. federal law requires that octane ratings be posted on gasoline station
pumps.
Fuel with a rating lower than 87 octane (91 RON) could cause the emission control system to lose effectiveness. It could also cause engine knocking and serious engine damage.
Gasoline blended with oxygenates such as alcohol or ether compounds are generally referred to as oxygenated fuels. The common gasoline blend that can be used with your vehicle is ethanol blended at no more than 10 %. Gasoline containing alcohol, such as ethanol or methanol, may be marketed under the name "Gasohol".
Vehicle damage and drivability problems resulting from the use of the following may not be covered by the warranty. Gasohol containing more than 10 % ethanol. Gasoline or gasohol containing methanol. Leaded fuel or leaded gasohol.
NOTICE
USE ONLY UNLEADED FUEL. Leaded fuel is harmful to the catalytic converter and oxygen sensors and will lead to deterioration of the emission control system and or failures.
This vehicle can only use oxygenated fuels containing no more than 10 % ethanol by volume. Damage to the vehicle may occur when ethanol exceeds this recommendation, or if the gasoline contains any methanol. Stop using gasohol of any kind if your vehicle engine is performing poorly.
Never add fuel system additives, otherwise the emission control system could be damaged. Consult your Toyota dealer for details.

Emission Control System
This vehicle is equipped with an emission control system (the catalytic converter is part of this system) that enables the vehicle to comply with existing exhaust emissions requirements.
Under U.S. federal law, any modification to the original-equipment emission control system before the first sale and registration of a vehicle is subject to penalties. In some states, such modification made on a used vehicle is also subject to penalties.
While the engine is off, the sound of a valve opening and closing can be 2 heard at the rear of the vehicle, however this does not indicate an abnormality. The vehicle has a selfchecking device and it operates while the engine is off.
WARNING
Never park over or near anything flammable Parking over or near anything flammable, such as dry grass, is dangerous. Even with the engine turned off, the exhaust system remains very hot after normal use and could ignite anything flammable. A resulting fire could cause serious injury or death.
NOTICE
Ignoring the following precautions could cause lead to accumulate on the catalyst inside the converter or cause the converter to get very hot. Either condition will damage the converter and cause poor performance. USE ONLY UNLEADED FUEL. Do not drive your Toyota with any sign of engine malfunction. Do not coast with the ignition switched off. Do not descend steep grades in gear with the ignition switched off. Do not operate the engine at high idle for more than 2 minutes. Do not tamper with the emission control system. All inspections and
adjustments must be made by a qualified technician. Do not push-start or pull-start your vehicle.

Engine Exhaust (Carbon monoxide)
WARNING
Do not drive your vehicle if you smell exhaust gas inside the vehicle Engine exhaust gas is dangerous. This gas contains carbon monoxide (CO), which is colorless, odorless, and poisonous. When inhaled, it can cause loss of consciousness and death. If you smell exhaust gas inside the vehicle, keep all windows fully open and contact your Toyota dealer immediately.
Do not run the engine when inside an enclosed area Running the engine inside an enclosed area, such as a garage, is dangerous. Exhaust gas, which contains poisonous carbon monoxide, could easily enter the cabin. Loss of consciousness or even death could occur.
Open the windows or adjust the heating or cooling system to draw fresh air when idling the engine: Exhaust gas is dangerous. When the vehicle is stopped with the windows closed and the engine running for a long time even in an open area, exhaust gas, which contains poisonous carbon monoxide, could enter the cabin. Loss of consciousness or even death could occur.
Clear snow from underneath and around your vehicle, particularly the tail pipe, before starting the engine: Running the engine when a vehicle is stopped in deep snow is dangerous. The exhaust pipe could be blocked by the snow, allowing exhaust gas to enter the cabin. Because exhaust gas contains poisonous carbon monoxide, it could cause loss of consciousness or even death to occupants in the cabin.

The immobilizer system allows the engine to start only with a key the system recognizes.
If someone attempts to start the engine with an unrecognized key, the engine will not start, thereby helping to prevent vehicle theft.
If you have a problem with the immobilizer system or the key, consult your Toyota dealer.
The keys carry a unique electronic code. For this reason, and to assure your safety, obtaining a replacement key requires some waiting time. They are only available through your Toyota dealer.
Always keep a spare key in case one is lost. If a key is lost, consult your Toyota dealer as soon as possible.
If you lose a key, your Toyota dealer will reset the electronic codes of your remaining keys and immobilizer system. Bring all the remaining keys to your Toyota dealer to reset. Starting the vehicle with a key that has not been reset is not possible.
NOTICE
Radio equipment like this is governed by laws in the United States. Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user's authority to operate the equipment.
To avoid damage to the key, do not: · Drop the key. · Get the key wet. · Expose the key to any kind of magnetic field. · Expose the key to high temperatures on places such as the dashboard or hood, under direct sunlight.
If the engine does not start with the correct key, and the security indicator light keeps illuminating or flashing, the system may have a malfunction. Consult your Toyota dealer.

Disarming
The system is disarmed when the ignition is switched ON with the correct programmed key. The security indicator light illuminates for about 3 seconds and then turns off. If the engine does not start with the correct key, and the security indicator light remains illuminated or flashing, try the following:
Make sure the key is within the operational range for signal transmission. Switch the ignition off, and then restart the engine. If the engine does not start after 3 or more tries, contact your Toyota dealer.
The engine may not start and security indicator light may illuminate or flash if the key is placed in an area where it is difficult for the system to detect the signal, such as on the dashboard or in the glove compartment. Move the key to a location within the signal range, switch the ignition off, and then restart the engine.
Signals from a TV or radio station, or from a transceiver or mobile telephone could interfere with your immobilizer system. If you are using the proper key and the engine fails to start, check the security indicator light.
If the security indicator light flashes continuously while you are driving, do not shut off the engine. Go to your Toyota dealer and have it checked. If the engine is shut off while the indicator light is flashing, you will not be able to restart it.

2-9. Driving Tips
Saving Fuel and Protection of the Environment
How you operate your Toyota determines how far it will travel on a tank of fuel. Use these suggestions to help save fuel and reduce CO2. Avoid long warm-ups. Once the engine runs smoothly, begin driv-
ing. Avoid fast starts. Drive at lower speeds. Anticipate when to apply the brakes (avoid sudden braking). Follow the maintenance schedule and have your Toyota dealer per-
form inspections and servicing. Use the air conditioner only when necessary. Slow down on rough roads. Keep the tires properly inflated. Do not carry unnecessary weight. Do not rest your foot on the brake pedal while driving. Keep the wheels in correct alignment. Keep windows closed at high speeds. Slow down when driving in crosswinds and headwinds.
WARNING
Never stop the engine when going down a hill Stopping the engine when going down a hill is dangerous. This causes the loss of power steering and power brake control, and may cause damage to the drivetrain. Any loss of steering or braking control could cause an accident.

Hazardous Driving
When driving on ice or in water, snow, mud, sand, or similar hazards:
Be cautious and allow extra distance for braking.
Avoid sudden braking and sudden maneuvering.
Do not pump the brakes. Continue to press down on the brake
pedal. Refer to Antilock Brake System (ABS) on P. 202.
If you get stuck, select a lower gear and accelerate slowly. Do not
spin the front wheels.
2
For more traction in starting on slippery surfaces such as ice or
packed snow, use sand, rock salt, chains, carpeting, or other non-
slip material under the front wheels.
Use snow chains only on the front wheels.
WARNING
Be extremely careful if it is necessary to downshift on slippery surfaces
Downshifting into lower gear while driving on slippery surfaces is dangerous. The sudden change in tire speed could cause the tires to skid. This could lead to loss of vehicle control and an accident.

Floor Mat
When setting a floor mat, position the floor mat so that its grommets are inserted over the pointed end of the retention posts.
WARNING
Make sure the floor mats are hooked on the retention pins to prevent them from bunching up under the foot pedals Using a floor mat that is not secured is dangerous as it will interfere with the accelerator and brake pedal operation, which could result in an accident.
Do not install two floor mats, one on top of the other, on the driver's side Installing two floor mats, one on top of the other, on the driver's side is dangerous as the retention pins can only keep one floor mat from sliding forward.
If using a heavy duty floor mat for winter use always remove the original floor mat.
Loose floor mat(s) will interfere with the foot pedal and could result in an accident.

Winter Driving
Carry emergency gear, including tire chains, window scraper, flares, a small shovel, jumper cables, and a small bag of sand or salt.
Ask your Toyota dealer to check the following: Have the proper ratio of antifreeze in the radiator.
Refer to Engine Coolant on P. 455. Inspect the battery and its cables. Cold reduces battery capacity. Use an engine oil appropriate for the lowest ambient temperatures
that the vehicle will be driven in (P. 453). Inspect the ignition system for damage and loose connections. Use washer fluid made with antifreezebut do not use engine cool-
ant antifreeze for washer fluid (P. 459).
Do not use the parking brake in freezing weather as it may freeze. Instead, shift to 1 or R with a manual transaxle and to P with an automatic transaxle. Block the rear wheels.
Remove snow before driving. Snow left on the windshield is dangerous as it could obstruct vision.
Do not apply excessive force to a window scraper when removing ice or frozen snow on the mirror glass and windshield.
Never use warm or hot water for removing snow or ice from windows and mirrors as it could result in the glass cracking.
Drive slowly. Braking performance can be adversely affected if snow or ice adheres to the brake components. If this situation occurs, drive the vehicle slowly, releasing the accelerator pedal and lightly applying the brakes several times until the brake performance returns to normal.

M (Manual)
M is the manual shift mode position. Gears can be shifted up or down by operating the selector lever. Refer to Manual Shift Mode on P. 176.
WARNING
Always set the selector lever to P and set the parking brake when parking
Only setting the selector lever to the P position without using the parking brake to hold the vehicle is dangerous. If P fails to hold, the vehicle could move and cause an accident.
If the engine is running faster than idle, do not shift from N or P into a driving gear
It's dangerous to shift from N or P into a driving gear when the engine is running faster than idle. If this is done, the vehicle could move suddenly, causing an accident or serious injury.
Do not shift into N when driving the vehicle Shifting into N while driving is dangerous. Engine braking cannot be applied when decelerating which could lead to an accident or serious injury.
NOTICE
Shifting into P, N or R while the vehicle is moving can damage your transaxle.
Shifting into a driving gear or reverse when the engine is running faster than idle can damage the transaxle.
Do not shift into N when driving the vehicle. Doing so can cause transaxle damage.

M1 to M2
15 mph (24 km/h)
M2 to M3
25 mph (40 km/h)
M3 to M4
40 mph (65 km/h)
M4 to M5
45 mph (73 km/h)
M5 to M6
50 mph (81 km/h)
*1: Always observe local speed limit regulations.
Downshifting
When you must slow down in heavy traffic or on a steep upgrade, downshift before the engine starts to overwork. This gives better acceleration when you need more speed.
On a steep downgrade, downshifting helps maintain safe speed and prolongs brake life.
Manual Shift Mode Changing to manual shift mode while driving will not damage the transaxle.
If you change to manual shift mode when the vehicle is stopped, the gear will shift to M1.
If you change to manual shift mode without depressing the accelerator pedal when driving in D range, 5th gear/6th gear, the gear will shift to M4/ M5.
Indicators If the gears cannot be shifted down when driving at higher speeds, the gear position indication will flash twice to signal that the gears cannot be shifted down (to protect the transaxle).
If the automatic transaxle fluid (ATF) temperature becomes too high, there is the possibility that the transaxle will switch to automatic shift mode, canceling manual shift mode and turning off the gear position indication illumination. This is a normal function to protect the AT. After the ATF temperature has decreased, the gear position indication illumination turns back on and driving in manual shift mode is restored.
YARIS_SEDAN_OM_OM99M18z_(U)

Manually shifting up
When driving slowly, the gears may not shift up.
In manual shift mode, do not run the engine with the tachometer needle in the RED ZONE. When the engine rpm is high, a gear may shift up automatically to protect the engine.
When depressing the accelerator fully, the transaxle will shift to a lower gear, depending on vehicle speed.
The steering shift switch can be used temporarily even if the selector lever is
in the D position while driving. In addition, it returns to automatic shift mode
when the UP switch (
) is pulled rearward for a sufficient amount of
time.
Manually shifting down
When driving at high speeds, the gear may not shift down.
During deceleration, the gear may automatically shift down depending on 3 vehicle speed.
When depressing the accelerator fully, the transaxle will shift to a lower gear, depending on vehicle speed.
WARNING
Do not use engine braking on slippery road surfaces or at high speeds
Shifting down while driving on wet, snowy, or frozen roads, or while driving at high speeds causes sudden engine braking, which is dangerous. The sudden change in tire speed could cause the tires to skid. This could lead to loss of vehicle control and an accident.
Keep your hands on the steering wheel rim when using fingers on the steering shift switches
Putting your hands inside the rim of the steering wheel when using the steering shift switches is dangerous. If the driver's air bag were to deploy in a collision, your hands could be impacted causing injury.

Driving Tips
Passing
For extra power when passing another vehicle or climbing steep grades, depress the accelerator fully. The transaxle will shift to a lower gear, depending on vehicle speed.
Some models: The accelerator pedal may initially feel heavy as it is being depressed, then feel lighter as it is depressed further. This change in pedal force aids the engine control system in determining how much the accelerator pedal has been depressed for performing kickdown, and functions to control whether or not kickdown should be performed.
Climbing steep grades from a stop
3
To climb a steep grade from a stopped position:
1 Depress the brake pedal.
2 Shift to D or M1, depending on the load weight and grade steepness.
3 Release the brake pedal while gradually accelerating.
Descending steep grades
When descending a steep grade, shift to lower gears, depending on load weight and grade steepness. Descend slowly, using the brakes only occasionally to prevent them from overheating.
WARNING
Do not let the vehicle move in a direction opposite to the direction selected by the selector lever Do not let the vehicle move backward with the selector lever in a forward position, or do not let the vehicle move forward with the selector lever in the reverse position. Otherwise, the engine may stop, causing the loss of the power brake and power steering functions, and make it difficult to control the vehicle which could result in an accident.

3-5. Brake
Brake System
Foot Brake
This vehicle has power-assisted brakes that adjust automatically through normal use.
Should power-assist fail, you can stop by applying greater force than normal to the brake pedal. But the distance required to stop will be greater than usual.
WARNING
Do not coast with the engine stalled or turned off, find a safe place to stop Coasting with the engine stalled or turned off is dangerous. Braking will require more effort, and the brake's power-assist could be depleted if you pump the brake. This will cause longer stopping distances or even an accident.
Shift to a lower gear when going down steep hills Driving with your foot continuously on the brake pedal or steadily applying the brakes for long distances is dangerous. This causes overheated brakes, resulting in longer stopping distances or even total brake failure. This could cause loss of vehicle control and a serious accident. Avoid continuous application of the brakes.
Dry off brakes that have become wet by driving slowly, releasing the accelerator pedal and lightly applying the brakes several times until the brake performance returns to normal Driving with wet brakes is dangerous. Increased stopping distance or the vehicle pulling to one side when braking could result in a serious accident. Light braking will indicate whether the brakes have been affected.
To apply the brakes correctly
Always depress the brake pedal with the right foot. Applying the brakes with the unaccustomed left foot could slow your reaction time to an emergency situation resulting in insufficient braking operation.
Wear shoes appropriate for driving in order to avoid your shoe contacting the brake pedal when depressing the accelerator pedal.

Brake Assist
During emergency braking situations when it is necessary to depress the brake pedal with greater force, the brake assist system provides braking assistance, thus enhancing braking performance.
When the brake pedal is depressed hard or depressed more quickly, the brakes apply more firmly.
When the brake pedal is depressed hard or depressed more quickly, the pedal will feel softer but the brakes will apply more firmly. This is a normal effect of the brake assist operation and does not indicate a malfunction.
When the brake pedal is depressed hard or depressed more quickly, a

Hill Start Assist
Hill Start Assist is a function which assists the driver in accelerating from a stop while on a slope. When the driver releases the brake pedal and depresses the accelerator pedal while on a slope, the function prevents the vehicle from rolling. The braking force is maintained automatically after the brake pedal is released on a steep grade.
For vehicles with a manual transaxle, Hill Start Assist operates on a downward slope when the shift lever is in the reverse (R) position, and on an upward slope when the shift lever is in a position other than the reverse (R) position.
For vehicles with an automatic transaxle, Hill Start Assist operates on a downward slope when the shift lever is in the reverse (R) position, and on an upward slope when the shift lever is in a forward gear.
Hill Start Assist does not operate on a gentle slope. In addition, the gradient of the slope on which the system will operate changes depending on the vehicle's load.
Hill Start Assist does not operate if the parking brake is applied, the vehicle has not stopped completely, or the clutch pedal is released.
While Hill Start Assist is operating, the brake pedal may feel stiff and vibrate, however, this does not indicate a malfunction.
Hill Start Assist does not operate while the TRAC/VSC indicator light is illuminated. Refer to Warning/Indicator Lights on P. 164.
Hill Start Assist does not turn off even if the VSC OFF switch is pressed to turn off the TRAC/VSC.

WARNING
Do not rely completely on Hill Start Assist Hill Start Assist is an auxiliary device for accelerating from a stop on a slope. The system only operates for about two seconds and therefore, relying only on the system, when accelerating from a stop is dangerous because the vehicle may move (roll) unexpectedly and cause an accident.
The vehicle could roll depending on the vehicle's load or if it is towing something. In addition, for vehicles with a manual transaxle, the vehicle could still roll depending on how the clutch pedal or the accelerator pedal is operated.
Always confirm the safety around the vehicle before starting to drive the vehicle.

3-6. ABS/TRAC/VSC
Antilock Brake System (ABS)
The ABS control unit continuously monitors the speed of each wheel. If one wheel is about to lock up, the ABS responds by automatically releasing and reapplying that wheel's brake.
The driver will feel a slight vibration in the brake pedal and may hear a chattering noise from the brake system. This is normal ABS system operation. Continue to depress the brake pedal without pumping the brakes.
The warning light turns on when the system has a malfunction. Refer to Warning Lights on P. 165.
Braking distances may be longer on loose surfaces (snow or gravel, for example) which usually have a hard foundation. A vehicle with a normal braking system may require less distance to stop under these conditions because the tires will build up a wedge of surface layer when the wheels skid.
The sound of the ABS operating may be heard when starting the engine or immediately after starting the vehicle, however, it does not indicate a malfunction.
WARNING
Do not rely on ABS as a substitute for safe driving The ABS cannot compensate for unsafe and reckless driving, excessive speed, tailgating (following another vehicle too closely), driving on ice and snow, and hydroplaning (reduced tire friction and road contact because of water on the road surface). You can still have an accident.

Traction Control (TRAC)
The Traction Control (TRAC) enhances traction and safety by controlling engine torque and braking. When the TRAC detects driving wheel slippage, it lowers engine torque and operates the brakes to prevent loss of traction.
This means that on a slick surface, the engine adjusts automatically to provide optimum power to the drive wheels, limiting wheel spin and loss of traction.
The warning light turns on when the system has a malfunction.
Refer to Warning Lights on P. 165.

WARNING
Do not rely on the Low Speed Pre-Collision System as a substitute for safer driving
The Low Speed Pre-Collision System cannot compensate for unsafe and reckless driving, excessive speed, tailgating (following another vehicle too closely), and driving on slippery roads such as wet, snowy, and icy roads (reduced tire friction and road contact because of water on the road surface). You can still have an accident.
Do not rely completely on the Low Speed Pre-Collision System The Low Speed Pre-Collision System is only designed to reduce damage in the event of a collision. Over reliance on the system leading to the accelerator pedal or brake pedal being mistakenly operated could result in an accident.
The Low Speed Pre-Collision System is a system which operates in response to a vehicle ahead. The system may not be able to detect or react to two-wheeled vehicles or pedestrians.
The laser sensor for the Low Speed Pre-Collision System is installed near the rearview mirror. To assure the correct operation of the Low Speed PreCollision System, heed the following cautions.
· Do not apply stickers to the surface of the windshield near the laser sensor (including transparent stickers). Otherwise, the laser sensor may not be able to detect vehicles ahead which could result in an accident.
· Do not apply coating agent to the windshield. Otherwise, the laser sensor may not be able to detect vehicles or obstructions in front which could result in an accident.
· Do not disassemble the laser sensor. · If cracks or damage caused by flying gravel or debris is visible near
the laser sensor, stop using the Low Speed Pre-Collision System immediately and have your vehicle inspected by your Toyota dealer. If the vehicle continues to be driven with cracks or scratch marks left on the windshield near the laser sensor, the system may operate unnecessarily and cause an unexpected accident. Refer to Stopping The Low Speed Pre-Collision System Operation on P. 232. · When replacing the windshield wipers or windshield, consult your Toyota dealer. The laser sensor includes a function for detecting a soiled windshield and informing the driver, however, depending on the conditions, it may not detect plastic shopping bags, ice or snow on the windshield. In such cases, the system cannot accurately determine a vehicle ahead and may not be able to operate normally. Always drive carefully and pay attention to the road ahead.

3-12. Tire Pressure Monitoring System
NOTICE
Each tire, including the spare (if provided), should be checked monthly when cold and inflated to the inflation pressure recommended by the vehicle manufacturer on the vehicle placard or tire inflation pressure label. (If your vehicle has tires of a different size than the size indicated on the vehicle placard or tire inflation pressure label, you should determine the proper tire inflation pressure for those tires.) As an added safety feature, your vehicle has been equipped with a tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS) that illuminates a low tire pressure telltale when one or more of your tires is significantly underinflated. Accordingly, when the low tire pressure telltale illuminates, you should stop and check your tires as soon as possible, and inflate them to the proper pressure. Driving on a significantly under-inflated tire causes the tire to overheat and can lead to tire failure. Under-inflation also reduces fuel efficiency and tire tread life, and may affect the vehicle's handling and stopping ability. Please note that the TPMS is not a substitute for proper tire maintenance, and it is the driver's responsibility to maintain correct tire pressure, even if under-inflation has not reached the level to trigger illumination of the TPMS low tire pressure telltale. Your vehicle has also been equipped with a TPMS malfunction indicator to indicate when the system is not operating properly. The TPMS malfunction indicator is combined with the low tire pressure telltale. When the system detects a malfunction, the telltale will flash for approximately one minute and then remain continuously illuminated. This sequence will continue upon subsequent vehicle start-ups as long as the malfunction exists. When the malfunction indicator is illuminated, the system may not be able to detect or signal low tire pressure as intended. TPMS malfunctions may occur for a variety of reasons, including the installation of replacement or alternate tires or wheels on the vehicle that prevent the TPMS from functioning properly. Always check the TPMS malfunction telltale after replacing one or more tires or wheels on your vehicle to ensure that the replacement or alternate tires and wheels allow the TPMS to continue to function properly.
To avoid false readings, the system samples for a little while before indicating a problem. As a result it will not instantaneously register a rapid tire deflation or blow out.

The battery is replaced or completely drained. The tire pressure monitoring system warning light is illuminated.
Initialization method
1 Park the car in a safe place and firmly apply the parking brake.
2 Let the tires cool, then adjust the tire pressure of all four (4) tires 3 to the specified pressure indicated on the tire pressure label located on the door jamb of the driver's door (door open). Refer to Tires on P. 596.
3 Switch the ignition ON.
4 While the vehicle is parked, press and hold the tire pressure monitoring system set switch and verify that the tire pressure monitoring system warning light in the combination meter flashes twice and a beep sound is heard once.
NOTICE
If the system initialization is performed without adjusting the tire pressure, the system cannot detect the normal tire pressure and it may not illuminate the tire pressure monitoring system warning light even if a tire pressure is low, or it may illuminate the light even if the pressures are normal.
Adjust the tire pressure on all four tires and initialize the system when the warning light is turned on. If the warning light turns on for a reason other than a flat tire, the tire pressure of all four tires may have decreased naturally.
The system initialization will not be performed if the switch is pressed while the vehicle is being driven.

4-1. Climate Control System
Operating Tips
Operate the climate control system with the engine running. To prevent the battery from being discharged, do not leave the fan
control dial on for a long period of time with the ignition switched ON when the engine is not running. Clear all obstructions such as leaves, snow and ice from the hood and the air inlet in the cowl grille to improve the system efficiency. Use the climate control system to defog the windows and dehumidify the air. The recirculate mode should be used when driving through tunnels or while in a traffic jam, or when you would like to shut off outside air for quick cooling of the interior. Use the outside air position for ventilation or windshield defrosting. If the vehicle has been parked in direct sunlight during hot weather, open the windows to let warm air escape, then run the climate control system. Run the air conditioner about 10 minutes at least once a month to keep internal parts lubricated.
Have the air conditioner checked before the weather gets hot. Lack of refrigerant may make the air conditioner less efficient. The refrigerant specifications are indicated on a label attached to the inside of the engine compartment. Check the label before refilling the refrigerant. If the wrong type of refrigerant is used, it could result in a serious malfunction of the air conditioner. For details, consult your Toyota dealer.

Operating Tips for Audio System
Do not spill any liquid on the audio system.
Do not insert any objects, other than CDs, into the slot.
4
To prevent the battery from being discharged, do not leave the audio system on for a long period of time when the engine is not running.
If a cellular phone or CB radio is used in or near the vehicle, it could cause noise to occur from the audio system, however, this does not indicate that the system has been damaged.
WARNING
Always adjust the audio while the vehicle is stopped Do not adjust the audio control switches while driving the vehicle. Adjusting the audio while driving the vehicle is dangerous as it could distract your attention from the vehicle operation which could lead to a serious accident. Even if the audio control switches are equipped on the steering wheel, learn to use the switches without looking down at them so that you can keep your maximum attention on the road while driving the vehicle.
NOTICE
For the purposes of safe driving, adjust the audio volume to a level that allows you to hear sounds outside of the vehicle including car horns and particularly emergency vehicle sirens.

Radio Reception
AM characteristics AM signals bend around such things as buildings or mountains and bounce off the ionosphere. Therefore, they can reach longer distances than FM signals. Because of this, two stations may sometimes be picked up on the same frequency at the same time. 1 Ionosphere 2 Station 2 3 Station 1
FM characteristics An FM broadcast range is usually about 25 - 30 miles (40 - 50 km) from the source. Because of extra coding needed to break the sound into two channels, stereo FM has even less range than monaural (non-stereo) FM.

Signals from an FM transmitter are similar to beams of light because they do not bend around corners, but they do reflect. Unlike AM signals, FM signals cannot travel beyond the horizon. Therefore, FM stations cannot be received at the great distances possible with AM reception.
1 FM wave
2 Ionosphere
3 AM wave

4-2. Audio System
Multipath noise Since FM signals can be reflected by obstructions, it is possible to receive both the direct signal and the reflected signal at the same time. This causes a slight delay in reception and may be heard as a broken sound or a distortion. This problem may also be encountered when in close proximity to the transmitter.
1 Direct
2 Reflected wave
Flutter/Skip noise
Signals from an FM transmitter move in straight lines and become weak in valleys between tall buildings, mountains, and other obstacles. When a vehicle passes through such an area, the reception conditions may change suddenly, resulting in annoying noise. Weak signal noise
In suburban areas, broadcast signals become weak because of distance from the transmitter. Reception in such fringe areas is characterized by sound breakup.
YARIS_SEDAN_OM_OM99M18z_(U)
Strong signal noise
This occurs very close to a transmitter tower. The broadcast signals are extremely strong, so the result is noise and sound breakup at the radio receiver.

Station drift noise
When a vehicle reaches the area of two strong stations broadcasting at similar frequencies, the original station may be temporarily lost and the second station picked up. At this time there will be some noise from this disturbance.

Introduction
Be extremely careful and prevent injury to yourself and others or damage to your vehicle when using this manual for inspection and maintenance.
If you are unsure about any procedure it describes, we strongly urge you to have a reliable and qualified service shop perform the work, preferably your Toyota dealer.
Factory-trained Toyota technicians and genuine Toyota parts are best for your vehicle. Without this expertise and the parts that have been designed and made especially for your Toyota, inadequate, incomplete, and insufficient servicing may result in problems. This could lead to vehicle damage or an accident and injuries.
For expert advice and quality service, consult your Toyota dealer.
To continue warranty eligibility and to protect your investment, it is your responsibility to properly maintain your vehicle according to factory recommended schedules outlined in this manual. As part of this you must keep your maintenance records, receipts, repair orders and any other documents as evidence this maintenance was performed. You must present these documents, should any warranty coverage disagreement occur. Failure to do so can result in your warranty being voided either in whole or in part.
This evidence may consist of the following: The Toyota Scheduled Maintenance Record, refer to the "Owner's
Warranty Information Booklet" or "Owner's Manual Supplement/ Scheduled Maintenance Guide", must be completely filled out showing mileage, repair order number, date for each service, and signed by a qualified automotive service technician who service vehicles. Original copies of repair orders or other receipts that include the mileage and date the vehicle was serviced. Each receipt should be signed by a qualified automotive service technician. For self maintenance, a statement that you completed the maintenance yourself, displaying mileage and the date the work was performed. Also, receipts for the replacement parts (fluid, filters, etc.) indicating the date and mileage must accompany this statement.
YARIS_SEDAN_OM_OM99M18z_(U)
5-1. Essential Information
443
If you elect to perform maintenance yourself or have your vehicle serviced at a location other than your Toyota dealer, Toyota requires that all fluids, parts and materials must meet Toyota standards for durability and performance as described in this manual.
Claims against the warranty resulting from lack of maintenance, as opposed to defective materials or authorized Toyota workmanship, will not be honored.
Any auto repair shop using parts equivalent to your Toyota's original equipment may perform maintenance. But we recommend that it always be done by your Toyota dealer using genuine Toyota parts.
Selecting "Maintenance Monitor" enables the system to notify you of your vehicle's approaching inspection/servicing period (P. 444).

NOTICE
Radiator coolant will damage paint. Rinse it off quickly if spilled. Use only soft (demineralized) water in the coolant mixture. Water that con-
tains minerals will cut down on the coolant's effectiveness. Do not add only water. Always add a proper coolant mixture. The engine has aluminum parts and must be protected by an ethylene-gly-
col- based coolant to prevent corrosion and freezing. DO NOT USE coolants Containing Alcohol, methanol, Borate or Silicate.
These coolants could damage the cooling system. DO NOT MIX alcohol or methanol with the coolant. This could damage the
cooling system. Do not use a solution that contains more than 60% antifreeze.
This would reduce effectiveness. Use of "Engine Coolant required" is recommended when replacing engine
coolant. Using engine coolant other than required may cause serious damage to the engine and cooling system.

Brake/Clutch Fluid
Inspecting Brake/Clutch Fluid Level
The brakes and clutch draw fluid from the same reservoir. Inspect the fluid level in the reservoir regularly. It should be kept between the MAX and MIN lines. The level normally drops with accumulated distance, a condition associated with wear of brake and clutch linings. If it is excessively low, have the brake/clutch system inspected by your Toyota dealer.
WARNING
If the brake/clutch fluid level is low, have the brakes inspected A low brake/clutch fluid level is dangerous. A low level could indicate brake lining wear or a brake system leak which could cause the brakes to fail and lead to an accident.

Window Washer Fluid
Inspecting Washer Fluid Level Inspect fluid level in the washer fluid reservoir; add fluid if necessary.
5-3. Owner Maintenance
459
E
Use plain water if washer fluid is unavailable. But use only washer fluid in cold weather to prevent it from freezing.
State or local regulations may restrict the use of volatile organic compounds (VOCs), which are commonly used as anti-freeze agents in washer fluid. A washer fluid with limited VOC content should be used only if it provides adequate freeze resistance for all regions and climates in which the vehicle will 5 be operated.
Front and rear washer fluid is supplied from the same reservoir.
WARNING
Use only windshield washer fluid or plain water in the reservoir Using radiator antifreeze as washer fluid is dangerous. If sprayed on the windshield, it will dirty the windshield, affect your visibility, and could result in an accident.
Using Washer Fluid Without Anti-freeze Protection in Cold Weather Operating your vehicle in temperatures below 4 degrees C (40 degrees F) using washer fluid without anti-freeze protection is dangerous as it could cause impaired windshield vision and result in an accident. In cold weather, always use washer fluid with anti- freeze protection.

5-3. Owner Maintenance
463
When raising both windshield wiper arms, raise the driver's side wiper arm first. When lowering the wiper arms, slowly lower the wiper arm from the passenger's side first while supporting it with your hand. Forcefully lowering the wiper arms could damage the wiper arm and blade, and may scratch or crack the windshield.
Install the blade so that the tabs are toward the bottom of the wiper arm.
NOTICE
Hot waxes applied by automatic car washers have been known to affect the wiper's ability to clean windows.
To prevent damage to the wiper blades, do not use gasoline, kerosene, paint thinner, or other solvents on or near them.
To prevent damage to the wiper arms and other components, do not try to sweep the wiper arm by hand.
To prevent damage to the windshield let the wiper arm down easily, don't let it slap down on the windshield.
Do not bend or discard the stiffeners. You need to use them again.
If the metal stiffeners are switched, the blade's wiping efficiency could be
reduced. So don't use the driver's side metal stiffeners on the passenger's side, or
5
vice versa.
Be sure to reinstall the metal stiffeners in the new blade rubber so that the curve is the same as it was in the old blade rubber.

Using Different Tire Types Driving your vehicle with different types of tires is dangerous. It could cause poor handling and poor braking; leading to loss of control.
Except for the limited use of the temporary spare tire, use only the same type tires (radial, bias-belted, bias-type) on all four wheels.
Using Wrong-Sized Tires Using any other tire size than what is specified for the vehicle (P. 596) is dangerous. It could seriously affect ride, handling, ground clearance, tire clearance, and speedometer calibration. This could cause you to have an accident. Use only tires that are the correct size specified for the vehicle.
Tire Inflation Pressure
Inspect all tire pressures monthly (including the spare) when the tires are cold. Maintain recommended pressures for the best ride, handling, and minimum tire wear.
Refer to the specification charts (P. 596).
Vehicles with tire pressure monitoring system: After adjusting the tire pressure, initialization of the tire pressure monitoring system is necessary to make the system operate normally.
Refer to Tire Pressure Monitoring System Initialization on P. 245.
Always check tire pressure when tires are cold. Warm tires normally exceed recommended pressures. Do not release
air from warm tires to adjust the pressure. Underinflation can cause reduced fuel economy, uneven and acceler-
ated tire wear, and poor sealing of the tire bead, which will deform the wheel and cause separation of tire from rim. Overinflation can produce a harsh ride, uneven and accelerated tire wear, and a greater possibility of damage from road hazards.

5-3. Owner Maintenance
471
Keep your tire pressure at the correct levels. If one frequently needs inflating, have it inspected.
WARNING
Always inflate the tires to the correct pressure
Overinflation or underinflation of tires is dangerous. Adverse handling or unexpected tire failure could result in a serious accident. Refer to Tires on (P. 596).
Use only a Toyota-genuine tire valve cap
Use of a non-genuine part is dangerous as the correct tire air pressure cannot be maintained if the tire valve becomes damaged. If the vehicle is driven under this condition, the tire air pressure will decrease which could result in a serious accident. Do not use any part for the tire valve cap that is not a Toyota-genuine part.
Tire Rotation During rotation, inspect them for correct balance.
5
Forward
Do not include (TEMPORARY USE ONLY) spare tire in rotation.
Also, inspect them for uneven wear and damage. Abnormal wear is usually caused by one or a combination of the following: Incorrect tire pressure Improper wheel alignment Out-of-balance wheel Severe braking After rotation, inflate all tire pressures to specification (P. 596) and inspect the lug nuts for tightness. Vehicles with tire pressure monitoring system: After adjusting the tire pressure, initialization of the tire pressure monitoring system is necessary to make the system operate normally.

Refer to Tire Pressure Monitoring System Initialization on P. 245.
WARNING
Rotate tires periodically
Irregular tire wear is dangerous. To equalize tire wear and extend tire life, Toyota recommends that tire rotation is carried out at the same interval as tire inspection. For scheduled maintenance information, please refer to the "Owner's Manual Supplement/Scheduled Maintenance Guide".
NOTICE
Rotate unidirectional tires and radial tires that have an asymmetrical tread pattern or studs only from front to rear, not from side to side. Tire performance will be reduced if rotated from side to side.
Replacing a Tire
If a tire wears evenly, a wear indicator will appear as a solid band across the tread.
Replace the tire when this happens.
Tread wear indicator
New tread
Worn tread
You should replace the tire before the band crosses the entire tread. Vehicles with tire pressure monitoring system: After adjusting the tire pressure, initialization of the tire pressure monitoring system is necessary to make the system operate normally. Refer to Tire Pressure Monitoring System Initialization on P. 245.
Tires degrade over time, even when they are not being used on the road. It is recommended that tires generally be replaced when they are 6 years or older. Heat caused by hot climates or frequent high loading conditions can accelerate the aging process. You should replace the spare tire when you replace the other road tires due to the aging of the spare tire. The period in which the tire was manufactured (both week and year) is indicated by a 4-digit number. Refer to Tire Labeling on P. 567.

WARNING
Always use tires that are in good condition Driving with worn tires is dangerous. Reduced braking, steering, and traction could result in an accident.
Replace all four tires at the same time Replacing just one tire is dangerous. It could cause poor handling and poor braking resulting in loss of vehicle control. Toyota strongly recommends that you replace all four tires at the same time. If you replace only two tires, the new tires should be installed on the rear of the vehicle.
Temporary Spare Tire
Inspect the temporary spare tire at least monthly to make sure it is properly inflated and stored.
The temporary spare tire is easier to handle because of its construction which is lighter and smaller than a conventional tire. This tire should be used only for an emergency and only for a short distance.
5
Use the temporary spare tire only until the conventional tire is repaired, which should be as soon as possible. Refer to Tires on P. 596.
The temporary spare tire condition gradually deteriorates even if it has not been used.
Tires degrade over time, even when they are not being used on the road. It is recommended that tires generally be replaced when they are 6 years or older. Heat caused by hot climates or frequent high loading conditions can accelerate the aging process. You should replace the spare tire when you replace the other road tires due to the aging of the spare tire.

NOTICE
Do not use your temporary spare tire rim with a snow tire or a conventional tire. Neither will properly fit and could damage both tire and rim.
The temporary spare tire has a tread life of less than 3,000 miles (5,000 km). The tread life may be shorter depending on driving conditions.
The temporary spare tire is for limited use, however, if the tread wear solid- band indicator appears, replace the tire with the same type of temporary spare (P. 474).
Replacing a Wheel Proper tire balancing provides the best riding comfort and helps reduce tread wear. Out-of-balance tires can cause vibration and uneven wear, such as cupping and flat spots.
When replacing a wheel, make sure the new one is the same as the original factory wheel in diameter, rim width, and offset (inset/outset).
WARNING
Always use wheels of the correct size on your vehicle Using a wrong-sized wheel is dangerous. Braking and handling could be affected, leading to loss of control and an accident.

Exterior Care
The paintwork on your Toyota represents the latest technical developments in composition and methods of application.
Environmental hazards, however, can harm the paint's protective properties, if proper care is not taken.
Here are some examples of possible damage, with tips on how to prevent them.
Etching Caused by Acid Rain or Industrial Fallout Occurrence Industrial pollutants and vehicle emissions drift into the air and mix with rain or dew to form acids. These acids can settle on a vehicle's finish. As the water evaporates, the acid becomes concentrated and can damage the finish.
And the longer the acid remains on the surface, the greater the chance is for damage. Prevention It is necessary to wash and wax your vehicle to preserve its finish according to the instructions in this section. These steps should be taken immediately after you suspect that acid rain has settled on your vehicle's finish.
Damage Caused by Bird Dropping, Insects, or Tree Sap Occurrence Bird droppings contain acids. If these are not removed they can eat away the clear and color base coat of the vehicle's paintwork.
When insects stick to the paint surface and decompose, corrosive compounds form.
These can erode the clear and color base coat of the vehicle's paintwork if they are not removed.
Tree sap will harden and adhere permanently to the paint finish. If you scratch the sap off while it is hard, some vehicle paint could come off with it.
YARIS_SEDAN_OM_OM99M18z_(U)
5-4. Appearance Care
493
Prevention
It is necessary to have your Toyota washed and waxed to preserve its finish according to the instructions in this section. This should be done as soon as possible.
Bird droppings can be removed with a soft sponge and water. If you are traveling and these are not available, a moistened tissue may also take care of the problem. The cleaned area should be waxed according to the instructions in this section.
Insects and tree sap are best removed with a soft sponge and water or a commercially available chemical cleaner.
Another method is to cover the affected area with dampened newspaper for one to two hours. After removing the newspaper, rinse off the loosened debris with water.
Water Marks Occurrence
Rain, fog, dew, and even tap water can contain harmful minerals such as salt and lime. If moisture containing these minerals set- 5 tles on the vehicle and evaporates, the minerals will concentrate and harden to form white rings. The rings can damage your vehicle's finish. Prevention
It is necessary to wash and wax your vehicle to preserve its finish according to the instructions in this section. These steps should be taken immediately after you find water marks on your vehicle's finish.
Paint Chipping Occurrence
Paint chipping occurs when gravel thrown in the air by another vehicle's tires hits your vehicle. How to avoid paint chipping
Keeping a safe distance between you and the vehicle ahead reduces the chances of having your paint chipped by flying gravel.
Follow all label and container directions when using a chemical cleaner or polish. Read all warnings and cautions.
Maintenance and Care
YARIS_SEDAN_OM_OM99M18z_(U)
494
5-4. Appearance Care
The paint chipping zone varies with the speed of the vehicle. For example, when traveling at 56 mph (90 km/h), the paint chipping zone is 164 ft. (50 m).
In low temperatures a vehicle's finish hardens. This increases the chance of paint chipping.
Chipped paint can lead to rust forming on your Toyota. Before this happens, repair the damage by using Toyota touch-up paint according to the instructions in this section. Failure to repair the affected area could lead to serious rusting and expensive repairs.
Maintaining the Finish
Washing
To help protect the finish from rust and deterioration, wash your Toyota thoroughly and frequently, at least once a month, with lukewarm or cold water.
If the vehicle is washed improperly, the paint surface could be scratched. Here are some examples of how scratching could occur.
Scratches occur on the paint surface when The vehicle is washed without first rinsing off dirt and other foreign
matter. The vehicle is washed with a rough, dry, or dirty cloth. The vehicle is washed at a car wash that uses brushes that are
dirty or too stiff. Cleansers or wax containing abrasives are used.
To minimize scratches on the vehicle's paint finish Rinse off any dirt or other foreign matter using lukewarm or cold
water before washing. Use plenty of lukewarm or cold water and a soft cloth when wash-
ing the vehicle. Do not use a nylon cloth. Rub gently when washing or drying the vehicle. Take your vehicle only to a car wash that keeps its brushes well
maintained.
YARIS_SEDAN_OM_OM99M18z_(U)
5-4. Appearance Care
495
Do not use abrasive cleansers or wax that contain abrasives.
Pay special attention to removing salt, dirt, mud, and other foreign material from the underside of the fenders, and make sure the drain holes in the lower edges of the doors and rocker panels are clean.
Insects, tar, tree sap, bird droppings, industrial fallout, and similar deposits can damage the finish if not removed immediately. When prompt washing with plain water is ineffective, use a mild soap made for use on vehicles.
Thoroughly rinse off all soap with lukewarm or cold water. Do not allow soap to dry on the finish.
After washing the vehicle, dry it with a clean chamois to prevent water spots from forming. When using an automatic car wash
· Retract the door mirrors. · The automatic car wash brushes could reduce the paint lustre or
hasten paint deterioration. When using a high water pressure car wash
5
High water temperature and high water pressure car washers are available depending on the type of car wash machine. If the car washer nozzle is put too close to the vehicle, the force of the spray could damage or deform the molding, affect the sealability of parts, and allow water to penetrate the interior. Keep a sufficient space (12 in. (300 mm) or more) between the nozzle and the vehicle. In addition, do not spend too much time spraying the same area of the vehicle, and be very careful when spraying between gaps in doors and around windows.
Waxing
Your vehicle needs to be waxed when water no longer beads on the finish. Always wash and dry the vehicle before waxing it. In addition to the vehicle body, wax the metal trim to maintain its luster.
1 Use wax which contains no abrasives. Waxes containing abrasive will remove paint and could damage bright metal parts.
2 Use a good grade of natural wax for metallic, mica, and solid colors.
3 When waxing, coat evenly with the sponge supplied or a soft cloth.
4 Wipe off the wax with a soft cloth.

YARIS_SEDAN_OM_OM99M18z_(U)
496
5-4. Appearance Care
Maintaining the Finish Toyota is not responsible for scratches caused by automatic car washes or improper washing. Scratches are more noticeable on vehicles with darker paint finishes. A spot remover to remove oil, tar, and similar materials will usually also take off the wax. Rewax these areas even if the rest of the vehicle does not need it.
WARNING
Dry off brakes that have become wet by driving slowly, releasing the accelerator pedal and lightly applying the brakes several times until the brake performance returns to normal Driving with wet brakes is dangerous. Increased stopping distance or the vehicle pulling to one side when braking could result in a serious accident. Light braking will indicate whether the brakes have been affected.
NOTICE
Do not spray water in the engine compartment. Otherwise, it could result in engine-starting problems or damage to electrical parts.
When washing and waxing the vehicle, be careful not to apply excessive force to any single area of the vehicle roof or the antenna. Otherwise, you could dent the vehicle or damage the antenna.
Do not use steel wool, abrasive cleaners, or strong detergents containing highly alkaline or caustic agents on chrome- plated or anodized aluminum parts. This may damage the protective coating; also, cleaners and detergents may discolor or deteriorate the paint.

Repairing Damage to the Finish
Deep scratches or chips on the finish should be repaired promptly. Exposed metal quickly rusts and can lead to major repairs.
NOTICE
If your Toyota is damaged and needs metal parts repaired or replaced, make sure the body shop applies anti- corrosion materials to all parts, both repaired and new. This will prevent them from rusting.
Bright-Metal Maintenance
Use tar remover to remove road tar and insects. Never do this with a knife or similar tool.
To prevent corrosion on bright- metal surfaces, apply wax or chrome preservative and rub it to a high luster.
During cold weather or in coastal areas, cover bright-metal parts with a coating of wax or preservative heavier than usual. It would also help to coat them with noncorrosive petroleum jelly or some 5 other protective compound.
NOTICE
Do not use steel wool, abrasive cleaners, or strong detergents containing highly alkaline or caustic agents on chrome-plated or anodized aluminum parts. This may result in damage to the protective coating and cause discoloration or paint deterioration.

5-4. Appearance Care
Underbody Maintenance
Road chemicals and salt used for ice and snow removal and solvents used for dust control may collect on the underbody. If not removed, they will speed up rusting and deterioration of such underbody parts as fuel lines, frame, floor pan, and exhaust system, even though these parts may be coated with anti-corrosive material.
Thoroughly flush the underbody and wheel housings with lukewarm or cold water at the end of each winter. Try also to do this every month.
Pay special attention to these areas because they easily hide mud and dirt. It will do more harm than good to wet down the road grime without removing it.
The lower edges of doors, rocker panels, and frame members have drain holes that should not be clogged. Water trapped there will cause rusting.
WARNING
Dry off brakes that have become wet by driving slowly, releasing the accelerator pedal and lightly applying the brakes several times until the brake performance returns to normal Driving with wet brakes is dangerous. Increased stopping distance or the vehicle pulling to one side when braking could result in a serious accident. Light braking will indicate whether the brakes have been affected.
Aluminum Wheel Maintenance (if equipped)
A protective coating is provided over the aluminum wheels. Special care is needed to protect this coating.
Do not use a wire brush or any abrasive cleaner, polishing compound, or solvent on aluminum wheels. They may damage the coating.
Always use a sponge or soft cloth to clean the wheels. Rinse the wheels thoroughly with lukewarm or cold water. Also, be sure to clean the wheels after driving on dusty or salted roads to help prevent corrosion.
Avoid washing your vehicle in an automatic car wash that uses high- speed or hard brushes.
(16-inch wheel vehicle) If your aluminum wheels lose luster, apply wax which contains no polishing powder.

NOTICE
Do not use any detergent other than mild detergent. Before using any detergent, verify the ingredients. Otherwise, the product could discolor or stain the aluminum wheels.
Plastic Part Maintenance
When cleaning the plastic lenses of the lights, do not use gasoline,
kerosene, rectified spirit, paint, thinner, highly acidic detergents, or
strongly alkaline detergents. Otherwise, these chemical agents can
discolor or damage the surfaces resulting in a significant loss in
functionality. If plastic parts become inadvertently exposed to any of
these chemical agents, flush with water immediately.
If plastic parts such as the bumpers become inadvertently exposed
to chemical agents or fluids such as gasoline, oil, engine coolant, or
battery fluid, it could cause discoloration, staining, or paint peeling.
Wipe off any such chemical agents or fluids using a soft cloth imme-
diately.

High water temperature and high water pressure car washers are
available depending on the type of high pressure car washer
device. If the car washer nozzle is put too close to the vehicle or
aimed at one area for an extended period of time, it could deform
plastic parts or damage the paint.
Do not use wax containing compounds (polish). Otherwise, it could
result in paint damage.
In addition, do not use an electrical or air tool to apply wax. Other-
wise, the frictional heat generated could result in deformation of
plastic parts or paint damage.

5-4. Appearance Care
Cleaning the Upholstery and Interior Trim Because genuine leather is a natural material, its surface is not uniform and it may have natural scars, scratches, and wrinkles.
To maintain the quality for as long as possible, periodical maintenance, about twice a year, is recommended.
Sand and dust on the seat surface may damage the overcoat of the genuine leather surfaces and accelerate wear.
Greasy soiling on genuine leather may cause molding and stains. Rubbing hard with a stiff brush or cloth may cause damage. Do not wipe the leather using alcohol, chlorine bleach, or organic solvents
such as thinner, benzene, or gasoline. Otherwise, it may cause discoloration or stains.
If the seats get wet, promptly remove moisture with a dry cloth. Remaining moisture on the surface may cause deterioration such as hardening and shrinkage.
Exposure to direct sunlight for long periods may cause deterioration and shrinkage. When parking the car under direct sunlight for long periods, shade the interior using sunshades.
Do not leave vinyl products on the seats for long periods as they may affect the leather quality and coloring. If the cabin temperature becomes hot, the vinyl may deteriorate and adhere to the genuine leather.
Do not wipe leather parts using alcohol, chlorine bleach, or organic solvents such as thinner, benzene, or gasoline. Otherwise, it may cause discoloration or stains.
· Scratches or nicks on the panels and metallic trim resulting from the use of a hard brush or cloth may not be repairable. Be particularly careful when cleaning high lustre panels and metallic trim as they can be easily scratched.
NOTICE
Use only recommended cleaners and procedures. Others may affect appearance and fire-resistance.

WARNING
Make sure the mounting surfaces of the wheel, hub and lug nuts are clean before changing or replacing tires
When changing or replacing a tire, not removing dirt and grime from the mounting surfaces of the wheel, hub and hub bolts is dangerous. The lug nuts could loosen while driving and cause the tire to come off, resulting in an accident.
Do not apply oil or grease to lug nuts and bolts and do not tighten the lug nuts beyond the recommended tightening torque
Applying oil or grease to lug nuts and bolts is dangerous. The lug nuts could loosen while driving and cause the tire to come off, resulting in an accident. In addition, lug nuts and bolts could be damaged if tightened more than necessary.
Always securely and correctly tighten the lug nuts
Improperly or loosely tightened lug nuts are dangerous. The wheel could wobble or come off. This could result in loss of vehicle control and cause a serious accident.
Be sure to reinstall the same nuts you removed or replace them with metric nuts of the same configuration
Because the wheel studs and lug nuts on your Toyota have metric
threads, using a non-metric nut is dangerous. On a metric stud, it would
not secure the wheel and would damage the stud, which could cause
the wheel to slip off and cause an accident.

Cell Phones Warning
WARNING
Please comply with the legal regulations concerning the use of communication equipment in vehicles in your country Use of any electrical devices such as cell phones, computers, portable radios, vehicle navigation or other devices by the driver while the vehicle is moving is dangerous. Dialing a number on a cell phone while driving also ties-up the driver's hands. Use of these devices will cause the driver to be distracted and could lead to a serious accident. If a passenger is unable to use the device, pull off the right-of-way to a safe area before use.
If use of a cell phone is necessary despite this warning, use a hands-free system to at least leave the hands free to drive the vehicle. Never use a cell phone or other electrical devices while the vehicle is moving and, instead, concentrate on the full-time job of driving.

7-4. Event Data Recorder
561
Event Data Recorder (U.S.A. and Canada)
This vehicle is equipped with an event data recorder (EDR). The main purpose of an EDR is to record, in certain crash or near crash-like situations, such as an air bag deployment or hitting a road obstacle, data that will assist in understanding how a vehicle's systems performed. The EDR is designed to record data related to vehicle dynamics and safety systems for a short period of time, typically 30 seconds or less. The EDR in this vehicle is designed to record such data as: How various systems in your vehicle were operating; Whether or not the driver and passenger safety belts were buckled/
fastened; How far (if at all) the driver was depressing the accelerator and/or
brake pedal; and, How fast the vehicle was traveling.
These data can help provide a better understanding of the circumstances in which crashes and injuries occur.
NOTE: EDR data are recorded by your vehicle only if a non-trivial crash or near crash-like situation occurs; no data are recorded by the EDR under normal driving conditions and no personal data (e.g., name, gender, age, and crash location) are recorded. However, other parties, such as law enforcement, could combine the EDR data with the type of personally identifying data routinely acquired during a 7 crash investigation.
To read data recorded by an EDR, special equipment is required, and access to the vehicle or the EDR is needed. In addition to the vehicle manufacturer, other parties, such as law enforcement, that have the special equipment, can read the information if they have access to the vehicle or the EDR.
Toyota will not disclose any of the data recorded in an EDR to a third party unless: A written agreement from the vehicle owner or the lessee is
obtained Officially requested by the police or other law enforcement authori-
ties Used as a defense for Toyota in a lawsuit, claim, or arbitration Ordered by a judge or court

7-6. Uniform Tire Quality Grading System (UTQGS)
Uniform Tire Quality Grading System (UTQGS)
This information relates to the tire grading system developed by the U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration for grading tires by tread wear, traction, and temperature performance.
Tread Wear
The tread wear grade is a comparative rating based on the wear rate of the tire when tested under controlled conditions on a specified government test course. For example, a tire graded 150 would wear one-and-a-half times as well on the government course as a tire graded 100. The relative performance of tires depends upon the actual conditions of their use, however, and may depart significantly from the norm because of variations in driving habits, service practices and differences in road characteristics and climate.
Traction-AA, A, B, C
The traction grades, from highest to lowest, are AA, A, B, and C. These grades represent the tire's ability to stop on wet pavement as measured under controlled conditions on specified government test surfaces of asphalt and concrete. A tire marked C may have poor traction performance.
WARNING
The traction grade assigned to this tire is based on braking (straight ahead) traction tests and does not include acceleration cornering (turning), hydroplaning, or peak traction characteristics.
YARIS_SEDAN_OM_OM99M18z_(U)
7-6. Uniform Tire Quality Grading System (UTQGS)
565
Temperature-A, B, C
The temperature grades A (the highest), B, and C, represent the tire's resistance to the generation of heat and its ability to dissipate heat when tested under controlled conditions on a specified indoor laboratory test wheel.
Sustained high temperature can cause the material of the tire to degenerate and reduce tire life, and excessive temperatures can lead to sudden tire failure.
Grade C corresponds to a level of performance which all passenger vehicle tires must meet under the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 109. Grades B and A represent higher levels of performance on the laboratory test wheel than the minimum required by law.
These grades will be added to the sidewalls of passenger vehicle tires over the next several years according to a schedule established by the NHTSA and the tire manufacturers.
The grade of tires available as standard or optional equipment on Toyota vehicles may vary with respect to grade.
ALL PASSENGER VEHICLE TIRES MUST CONFORM TO THESE GRADES AND TO ALL OTHER FEDERAL TIRE-SAFETY REQUIREMENTS.
WARNING
7
Keep your vehicle's tires properly inflated and not overloaded Driving with improperly inflated or overloaded tires is dangerous. Excessive speed, underinflation, or excessive loading, either separately or in combination, can cause heat buildup and possible tire failure. The temperature grade for this tire is established for a tire that is properly inflated and not overloaded.

Recommended Tire Inflation Pressure On the tire label you will find the recommended tire inflation pressure in both kPa and psi for the tires installed as original equipment on the vehicle. It is very important that the inflation pressure of the tires on 7 your vehicle is maintained at the recommended pressure. You should check the tire pressure regularly to insure that the proper inflation pressure is maintained. Refer to Tires on P. 596. Tire pressures listed on the vehicle placard or tire information label indicate the recommended cold tire inflation pressure, measured when the tires are cold, after the vehicle has been parked for at least 3 hours. As you drive, the temperature in the tire warms up, increasing the tire pressure.

7-7. Tire Information (U.S.A.)
WARNING
Always check the tire inflation pressures on a regular basis according to the recommended tire inflation pressure on the tire label and in conjunction with the information in this owner's manual Driving your vehicle with under-inflated tires is dangerous.
Under-inflation is the most common cause of failures in any kind of tire and may result in severe cracking, tread separation or "blowout", with unexpected loss of vehicle control and increased risk of injury. Underinflation increases sidewall flexing and rolling resistance, resulting in heat buildup and internal damage to the tire. It results in unnecessary tire stress, irregular wear, loss of control and accidents. A tire can lose up to half of its air pressure and not appear to be flat!
It is impossible to determine whether or not tires are properly inflated just by looking at them.
Checking Tire Pressure
1 When you check the air pressure, make sure the tires are cold meaning they are not hot from driving even a mile.
2 Remove the cap from the valve on one tire. 3 Firmly press a tire gauge onto the valve. 4 Add air to achieve recommended air pressure. 5 If you overfill the tire, release air by pushing on the metal stem in
the center of the valve. Then recheck the pressure with your tire gauge. 6 Replace the valve cap. 7 Repeat with each tire, including the spare. 8 Visually inspect the tires to make sure there are no nails or other objects embedded that could poke a hole in the tire and cause an air leak. 9 Check the sidewalls to make sure there are no gouges, cuts, bulges, cracks or other irregularities.
Some spare tires require higher inflation pressure.

Tire Maintenance
Improper or inadequate vehicle maintenance can cause tires to wear abnormally. Here are some important maintenance points:
Tire Inflation Pressure
Inspect all tire pressure monthly (including the spare) when the tires are cold. Maintain recommended pressures for the best ride, top handling, and minimum tire wear. Use the pressures specified on the vehicle tire information placard or tire label for optimum service.
Tire Rotation To equalize tire wear and extend tire life, Toyota recommends that tire rotation is carried out at the same interval as tire inspection.
Forward
Do not include (TEMPORARY USE ONLY) spare tire in rotation.
Inspect the tires for uneven wear and damage. Abnormal wear is usually caused by one or a combination of the following: Incorrect tire pressure Improper wheel alignment Out-of-balance wheel Severe braking After rotation, inflate all tire pressures to specification (P. 596) and inspect the lug nuts for tightness.
NOTICE
Rotate unidirectional tires and radial tires that have an asymmetrical tread pattern or studs only from front to rear, not from side to side. Tire performance will be weakened if rotated from side to side.

Replacing a Tire
WARNING
Always use tires that are in good condition Driving with worn tires is dangerous. Reduced braking, steering, and traction could result in an accident.
If a tire wears evenly, a wear indicator will appear as a solid band across the tread. Replace the tire when this happens.
You should replace the tire before the band crosses the entire tread.
New tread
Tread wear indicator
Worn tread
Tires degrade over time, even when they are not being used on the road. It is recommended that tires generally be replaced when they are 6 years or older. Heat caused by hot climates or frequent high loading conditions can accelerate the aging process. You should replace the spare tire when you replace the other road tires due to the aging of the spare tire. The period in which the tire was manufactured (both week and year) is indicated by a 4-digit number.
Refer to Tire Labeling on P. 567.

PAYLOAD
Payload is the combination weight of cargo and passengers that the vehicle is designed to carry. The maximum payload for your vehicle can be found on the Tire and Load Information label on the driver's door frame or door pillar. Look for "THE COMBINATION WEIGHT OF OCCUPANTS AND CARGO SHOULD NEVER EXCEED XXX kg or XXX lb." for your maximum payload. The payload listed on the tire label is the maximum payload for the vehicle as built by the assembly plant. If any aftermarket or dealer installed equipment has been installed on the vehicle, the weight of the equipment must be subtracted from the payload listed on the tire label in order to be accurate.

SAMPLE
CARGO Cargo Weight includes all weight added to the Base Curb Weight, including cargo and optional equipment. The cargo weight limit decreases depending on the number of vehicle occupants. The cargo weight limit can be calculated by subtracting the total weight of the vehicle occupants from the "combination weight of occupants and cargo should never exceed" value on the tire label.

Examples: Based on a single occupant weight of 150 lb. (68 kg), and a value of 849 lb. (385 kg) for the "combination weight of occupants and cargo should never exceed":
The cargo weight limit with one occupant is 849 lb. (385 kg) - 150 lb. (68 kg) = 699 lb. (317 kg)
The cargo weight limit with two occupants is 849 lb. (385 kg) - (150 x 2) lb. ((68 x 2) kg) = 549 lb. (249 kg)
If the weight of the occupant increases, the cargo weight limit decreases by that much.
GAW (Gross Axle Weight) is the total weight placed on each axle (front and rear) - including vehicle curb weight and all payload.
GAWR (Gross Axle Weight Rating) is the maximum allowable weight that can be carried by a single axle (front or rear). These numbers are shown on the Safety Compliance Certification Label located on the driver's door frame or door pillar. The total load on each axle must never exceed its GAWR.

WARNING
Do not tow a trailer with this vehicle
Towing a trailer with this vehicle is dangerous because it has not been designed to tow a trailer and doing so will affect the drive system which could result in vehicle damage.
Overloaded Vehicle
Overloading a vehicle is dangerous. The results of overloading can have serious consequences in terms of passenger safety. Too much weight on a vehicle's suspension system can cause spring or shock absorber failure, brake failure, handling or steering problems, irregular tire wear, tire failure or other damage.
Overloading makes a vehicle harder to drive and control. It also increases the distance required for stopping. In cases of serious overloading, brakes can fail completely, particularly on steep grades. The load a tire will carry safely is a combination of the size of the tire, its load range, and corresponding inflation pressure.
Never overload the vehicle and always observe the vehicle's weight ratings from the vehicle's Safety Certification and Tire and Load Information labels.
Never Exceed Axle Weight Rating Limits
Exceeding the Safety Certification Label axle weight rating limits is dan- 7 gerous and could result in death or serious injury as a result of substandard vehicle handling, performance, engine, transmission and/or structural damage, serious damage to the vehicle, or loss of control.
Always keep the vehicle within the axle weight rating limits.
Never Exceed GVWR or GAWR Specifications
Exceeding the GVWR or the GAWR specified on the certification label is dangerous. Exceeding any vehicle rating limitation could result in a serious accident, injury, or damage to the vehicle.
Do not use replacement tires with lower load carrying capacities than the originals because they may lower the vehicle's GVWR and GAWR limitations. Replacement tires with a higher limit than the originals do not increase the GVWR and GAWR limitations. Never exceed the GVWR or the GAWR specified on the certification label.

Steps for Determining the Correct Load Limit
Steps for Determining Correct Load Limit-
(1) Locate the statement "The combined weight of occupants and cargo should never exceed XXX kg or XXX lbs." on your vehicle's placard.
(2) Determine the combined weight of the driver and passengers that will be riding in your vehicle.
(3) Subtract the combined weight of the driver and passengers from XXX kg or XXX lbs.
(4) The resulting figure equals the available amount of cargo and luggage load capacity. For example, if the "XXX" amount equals 1400 lbs. and there will be five 150 lb passengers in your vehicle, the amount of available cargo and luggage load capacity is 650 lbs. (1400 - 750 (5 x 150) = 650 lbs.)
(5) Determine the combined weight of luggage and cargo being loaded on the vehicle. That weight may not safely exceed the available cargo and luggage load capacity calculated in Step 4.
(6) If your vehicle will be towing a trailer, load from your trailer will be transferred to your vehicle. Consult this manual to determine how this reduces the available cargo and luggage load capacity of your vehicle.
