For your information

Please note that this manual applies to all models and explains all equipment,

including options. Therefore, you may find some explanations for equipment

not installed on your vehicle.

All specifications provided in this manual are current at the time of printing.

However, because of the Toyota policy of continual product improvement, we

reserve the right to make changes at any time without notice.

Depending on specifications, the vehicle shown in the illustrations may differ

from your vehicle in terms of equipment.

Approximately five hours after the engine is turned off, you may hear a sound

coming from under the vehicle for several minutes. This is the sound of a fuel

evaporation leakage check and, it does not indicate a malfunction.

A wide variety of non-genuine spare parts and accessories for Toyota vehi-

cles are currently available on the market. You should know that Toyota does

not warrant these products and is not responsible for their performance,

repair, or replacement, or for any damage they may cause to, or adverse

effect they may have on, your Toyota vehicle.

This vehicle should not be modified with non-genuine Toyota products. Modi-

fication with non-genuine Toyota products could affect its performance, safety

or durability, and may even violate governmental regulations. In addition,

damage or performance problems resulting from the modification may not be

covered under warranty.

The installation of a mobile two-way radio system in your vehicle could affect

electronic systems such as:

●Multiport fuel injection system/sequential multiport fuel injection system

●Cruise control system (if equipped)

●Anti-lock brake system

●SRS airbag system

●Seat belt pretensioner system

Be sure to check with your Toyota dealer for precautionary measures or spe-

cial instructions regarding installation of a mobile two-way radio system.

Your Toyota is equipped with several sophisticated computers that will record

certain data, such as:

• Engine speed

• Accelerator status

• Brake status

• Vehicle speed

• Shift position (except manual transmission)

The recorded data varies according to the vehicle grade level and options

with which it is equipped. Furthermore, these computers do not record con-

versations, sounds or pictures.

●Data usage

Toyota may use the data recorded in these computers to diagnose malfunc-

tions, conduct research and development, and improve quality.

Toyota will not disclose the recorded data to a third party except:

• With the consent of the vehicle owner or with the consent of the lessee if

the vehicle is leased

• In response to an official request by the police, a court of law or a govern-

ment agency

• For use by Toyota in a lawsuit

• For research purposes where the data is not tied to a specific vehicle or

vehicle owner

Vehicle data recordings

YARIS HB_OM_USA_OM52G61U.book 7 ページ２０１５年７月９日　木曜日　午後６時２０分

YARIS_F_U_52G61U

This vehicle is equipped with an event data recorder (EDR). The main pur-

pose 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/fas-

tened;

• 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 situ-

ation occurs; no data are recorded by the EDR under normal driving condi-

tions 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 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.

●Disclosure of the EDR data

Toyota will not disclose the data recorded in an EDR to a third party except

when:

• An agreement from the vehicle’s owner (or the lessee for a leased vehi-

cle) is obtained

• In response to an official request by the police, a court of law or a govern-

ment agency

• For use by Toyota in a lawsuit

However, if necessary, Toyota may:

• Use the data for research on vehicle safety performance

• Disclose the data to a third party for research purposes without disclosing

information about the specific vehicle or vehicle owner

The SRS airbag and seat belt pretensioner devices in your Toyota contain

explosive chemicals. If the vehicle is scrapped with the airbags and seat belt

pretensioners left as they are, this may cause an accident such as fire. Be

sure to have the systems of the SRS airbag and seat belt pretensioner

removed and disposed of by a qualified service shop or by your Toyota dealer

before you scrap your vehicle.

Special handling may apply,

See www.dtsc.ca.gov/hazardouswaste/perchlorate.

Your vehicle has components that may contain perchlorate. These compo-

nents may include airbag, seat belt pretensioners, and wireless remote con-

trol batteries.

WARNING

■General precautions while driving

Driving under the influence: Never drive your vehicle when under the influ-

ence of alcohol or drugs that have impaired your ability to operate your vehi-

cle. Alcohol and certain drugs delay reaction time, impair judgment and

reduce coordination, which could lead to an accident that could result in

death or serious injury.

Defensive driving: Always drive defensively. Anticipate mistakes that other

drivers or pedestrians might make and be ready to avoid accidents.

Driver distraction: Always give your full attention to driving. Anything that

distracts the driver, such as adjusting controls, talking on a cellular phone or

reading can result in a collision with resulting death or serious injury to you,

your occupants or others.

■General precaution regarding children’s safety

Never leave children unattended in the vehicle, and never allow children to

have or use the key.

Children may be able to start the vehicle or shift the vehicle into neutral.

There is also a danger that children may injure themselves by playing with

the cigarette lighter, the windows, or other features of the vehicle. In addi-

tion, heat build-up or extremely cold temperatures inside the vehicle can be

fatal to children.

The pretensioners help the seat

belts to quickly restrain the occu-

pants by retracting the seat belts

when the vehicle is subjected to

certain types of severe frontal col-

lision.

The pretensioners do not activate

in the event of a minor frontal

impact, a minor side impact, a rear

impact or a vehicle rollover.

■Emergency locking retractor (ELR)

The retractor will lock the belt during a sudden stop or on impact. It may also

lock if you lean forward too quickly. A slow, easy motion will allow the belt to

extend so that you can move around fully.

■Automatic locking retractor (ALR)

When a passenger’s shoulder belt is completely extended and then retracted

even slightly, the belt is locked in that position and cannot be extended. This

feature is used to hold the child restraint system (CRS) firmly. To free the belt

again, fully retract the belt and then pull the belt out once more. (P. 57)

■Child seat belt usage

The seat belts of your vehicle were principally designed for persons of adult

size.

●Use a child restraint system appropriate for the child, until the child

becomes large enough to properly wear the vehicle’s seat belt. (P. 5 3)

●When the child becomes large enough to properly wear the vehicle’s seat

belt, follow the instructions regarding seat belt usage. (P. 26)

■Replacing the belt after the pretensioner has been activated

If the vehicle is involved in multiple collisions, the pretensioner will activate for

the first collision, but will not activate for the second or subsequent collisions.

■Seat belt extender

If your seat belts cannot be fastened

securely because they are not long

enough, a personalized seat belt extender

is available from your Toyota dealer free

of charge.

WARNING

Observe the following precautions to reduce the risk of injury in the event of

sudden braking, sudden swerving or an accident.

Failure to do so may cause death or serious injury.

■Wearing a seat belt

●Ensure that all passengers wear a seat belt.

●Always wear a seat belt properly.

●Each seat belt should be used by one person only. Do not use a seat belt

for more than one person at once, including children.

●Toyota recommends that children be seated in the rear seats and always

use a seat belt and/or an appropriate child restraint system.

●To achieve a proper seating position, do not recline the seat more than

necessary. The seat belt is most effective when the occupants are sitting

up straight and well back in the seats.

●Do not wear the shoulder belt under your arm.

●Always wear your seat belt low and snug across your hips.

WARNING

■Pregnant women

■People suffering illness

Obtain medical advice and wear the seat belt in the proper way. (P. 26)

■When children are in the vehicle

Do not allow children to play with the seat belt. If the seat belt becomes

twisted around a child’s neck, it may lead to choking or other serious injuries

that could result in death.

If this occurs and the buckle cannot be unfastened, scissors should be used

to cut the belt.

■Seat belt pretensioners

●Do not place anything, such as a cushion, on the front passenger’s seat.

Doing so will disperse the passenger’s weight, which prevents the sensor

from detecting the passenger’s weight properly. As a result, the seat belt

pretensioner for the front passenger’s seat may not activate in the event of

a collision.

●If the pretensioner has activated, the SRS warning light will come on. In

that case, the seat belt cannot be used again and must be replaced at

your Toyota dealer.

Obtain medical advice and wear the seat

belt in the proper way. (P. 26)

Women who are pregnant should posi-

tion the lap belt as low as possible over

the hips in the same manner as other

occupants, extending the shoulder belt

completely over the shoulder and avoid-

ing belt contact with the rounding of the

abdominal area.

If the seat belt is not worn properly, not

only the pregnant woman, but also the

fetus could suffer death or serious injury

as a result of sudden braking or a colli-

sion.

WARNING

■Seat belt damage and wear

●Do not damage the seat belts by allowing the belt, plate, or buckle to be

jammed in the door.

●Inspect the seat belt system periodically. Check for cuts, fraying, and loose

parts. Do not use a damaged seat belt until it is replaced. Damaged seat

belts cannot protect an occupant from death or serious injury.

●Ensure that the belt and plate are locked and the belt is not twisted.

If the seat belt does not function correctly, immediately contact your Toyota

dealer.

●Replace the seat assembly, including the belts, if your vehicle has been

involved in a serious accident, even if there is no obvious damage.

●Do not attempt to install, remove, modify, disassemble or dispose of the

seat belts. Have any necessary repairs carried out by your Toyota dealer.

Inappropriate handling may lead to incorrect operation.

■When using the rear center seat belt

●Do not allow anyone sit on the rear center seat if the rear right seat is

folded down, as the seat belt buckle for the rear center seat belt is then

concealed under the folded seat and cannot be used.

●Do not use the rear center seat belt with

either buckle released.

Fastening only one of the buckles may

result in death or serious injury in case

of sudden braking or a collision.

Your vehicle is equipped with ADVANCED AIRBAGS designed based

on the US motor vehicle safety standards (FMVSS208). The airbag

sensor assembly (ECU) controls airbag deployment based on infor-

mation obtained from the sensors, etc. shown in the system compo-

nents diagram above. This information includes crash severity and

occupant information. As the airbags deploy, a chemical reaction in

the inflators quickly fills the airbags with non-toxic gas to help restrain

the motion of the occupants.

WARNING

■SRS airbag precautions

Observe the following precautions regarding the SRS airbags.

Failure to do so may cause death or serious injury.

●The driver and all passengers in the vehicle must wear their seat belts

properly.

The SRS airbags are supplemental devices to be used with the seat belts.

●The SRS driver airbag deploys with considerable force, and can cause

death or serious injury especially if the driver is very close to the airbag.

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) advises:

Since the risk zone for the driver’s airbag is the first 2 - 3 in. (50 - 75 mm)

of inflation, placing yourself 10 in. (250 mm) from your driver airbag pro-

vides you with a clear margin of safety. This distance is measured from

the center of the steering wheel to your breastbone. If you sit less than

10 in. (250 mm) away now, you can change your driving position in sev-

eral ways:

• Move your seat to the rear as far as you can while still reaching the ped-

als comfortably.

• Slightly recline the back of the seat. Although vehicle designs vary,

many drivers can achieve the 10 in. (250 mm) distance, even with the

driver seat all the way forward, simply by reclining the back of the seat

somewhat. If reclining the back of your seat makes it hard to see the

road, raise yourself by using a firm, non-slippery cushion, or raise the

seat if your vehicle has that feature.

• If your steering wheel is adjustable, tilt it downward. This points the air-

bag toward your chest instead of your head and neck.

The seat should be adjusted as recommended by NHTSA above, while

still maintaining control of the foot pedals, steering wheel, and your view

of the instrument panel controls.

YARIS_F_U_52G61U

WARNING

■SRS airbag precautions

●The SRS front passenger airbag also deploys with considerable force, and

can cause death or serious injury especially if the front passenger is very

close to the airbag. The front passenger seat should be as far from the air-

bag as possible with the seatback adjusted, so the front passenger sits

upright.

●Improperly seated and/or restrained infants and children can be killed or

seriously injured by a deploying airbag. An infant or child who is too small

to use a seat belt should be properly secured using a child restraint sys-

tem. Toyota strongly recommends that all infants and children be placed in

the rear seats of the vehicle and properly restrained. The rear seats are

safer for infants and children than the front passenger seat. (P. 53)

●If the seat belt extender has been con-

nected to the front seat belt buckles but

the seat belt extender has not also been

fastened to the latch plate of the seat

belt, the SRS front airbags will judge

that the driver and front passenger are

wearing the seat belt even though the

seat belt has not been connected. In

this case, the SRS front airbags may

not activate correctly in a collision,

resulting in death or serious injury in the

event of a collision. Be sure to wear the

seat belt with the seat belt extender.

●Do not sit on the edge of the seat or

lean against the dashboard.

WARNING

■SRS airbag precautions

●Do not allow a child to stand in front of

the SRS front passenger airbag unit or

sit on the knees of a front passenger.

●Do not allow the front seat occupants to

hold items on their knees.

●Do not lean against the door, the roof

side rail or the front, side and rear pil-

lars.

●Do not allow anyone to kneel on the

passenger seat toward the door or put

their head or hands outside the vehicle.

●Do not attach anything to or lean any-

thing against areas such as the dash-

board, steering wheel pad and lower

portion of the instrument panel.

These items can become projectiles

when the SRS driver, front passenger

and driver knee airbags deploy.

WARNING

■SRS airbag precautions

●Do not hang coat hangers or other hard objects on the coat hooks. All of

these items could become projectiles and may cause death or serious

injury, should the SRS curtain shield airbags deploy.

●If a vinyl cover is put on the area where the SRS driver knee airbag will

deploy, be sure to remove it.

●Do not use seat accessories which cover the parts where the SRS side

airbags and SRS seat cushion airbags inflate as they may interfere with

inflation of the SRS airbags. Such accessories may prevent the side

airbags and seat cushion airbags from activating correctly, disable the sys-

tem or cause the side airbags and seat cushion airbags to inflate acciden-

tally, resulting in death or serious injury.

●Do not strike or apply significant levels of force to the area of the SRS air-

bag components.

Doing so can cause the SRS airbags to malfunction.

●Do not touch any of the component parts immediately after the SRS

airbags have deployed (inflated) as they may be hot.

●Do not attach anything to areas such as

a door, windshield glass, side door

glass, front or rear pillar, roof side rail

and assist grip.

●Do not attach any heavy, sharp or hard

objects such as keys and accessories

to the key. The objects may restrict the

SRS driver knee airbag inflation or be

thrust into the driver’s seat area by the

force of the deploying airbag, thus caus-

ing a danger.

YARIS_F_U_52G61U

WARNING

■SRS airbag precautions

●If breathing becomes difficult after the SRS airbags have deployed, open a

door or window to allow fresh air in, or leave the vehicle if it is safe to do

so. Wash off any residue as soon as possible to prevent skin irritation.

●If the areas where the SRS airbags are stored, such as the steering wheel

pad and front and rear pillar garnishes, are damaged or cracked, have

them replaced by your Toyota dealer.

●Do not place anything, such as a cushion, on the front passenger’s seat.

Doing so will disperse the passenger’s weight, which prevents the sensor

from detecting the passenger’s weight properly. As a result, the SRS front

airbags for the front passenger may not deploy in the event of a collision.

■Modification and disposal of SRS airbag system components

Do not dispose of your vehicle or perform any of the following modifications

without consulting your Toyota dealer. The SRS airbags may malfunction or

deploy (inflate) accidentally, causing death or serious injury.

●Installation, removal, disassembly and repair of the SRS airbags

●Repairs, modifications, removal or replacement of the steering wheel,

instrument panel, dashboard, seats or seat upholstery, front, side and rear

pillars or roof side rails

●Repairs or modifications of the front fender, front bumper, or side of the

occupant compartment

●Installation of a grille guard (bull bars, kangaroo bar, etc.), snow plows,

winches

●Modifications to the vehicle’s suspension system

●Installation of electronic devices such as mobile two-way radios and CD

players

●Modifications to your vehicle for a person with a physical disability.

YARIS_F_U_52G61U

■If the SRS airbags deploy (inflate)

●Slight abrasions, burns, bruising, etc., may be sustained from SRS airbags,

due to the extremely high speed deployment (inflation) by hot gases.

●A loud noise and white powder will be emitted.

●Parts of the airbag module (steering wheel hub, airbag cover and inflator) as

well as the front seats, parts of the front and rear pillars, and roof side rails,

may be hot for several minutes. The airbag itself may also be hot.

●The windshield may crack.

■SRS airbag deployment conditions (SRS front airbags)

●The SRS front airbags will deploy in the event of an impact that exceeds the

set threshold level (the level of force corresponding to an approximately 12 -

18 mph [20 - 30 km/h] frontal collision with a fixed wall that does not move or

deform).

However, this threshold velocity will be considerably higher in the following

situations:

• If the vehicle strikes an object, such as a parked vehicle or sign pole,

which can move or deform on impact

• If the vehicle is involved in an underride collision, such as a collision in

which the front of the vehicle “underrides”, or goes under, the bed of a

truck

●Depending on the type of collision, it is possible that only the seat belt pre-

tensioners will activate.

●The SRS front airbags for the front passenger will not activate if there is no

passenger sitting in the front passenger seat. However, the SRS front

airbags for the front passenger may deploy if luggage is put in the seat,

even if the seat is unoccupied.

●The SRS seat cushion airbags on the front seats will not operate if the occu-

pant is not wearing a seat belt.

■SRS airbag deployment conditions (SRS side and curtain shield airbags)

●The SRS side and curtain shield airbags will deploy in the event of an

impact that exceeds the set threshold level (the level of force corresponding

to the impact force produced by an approximately 3300 lb. [1500 kg] vehicle

colliding with the vehicle cabin from a direction perpendicular to the vehicle

orientation at an approximate speed of 12 - 18 mph [20 - 30 km/h]).

●The SRS curtain shield airbags may also deploy in the event of a severe

frontal collision.

■Conditions under which the SRS airbags may deploy (inflate), other than

a collision

The SRS front airbags, SRS curtain shield airbags may also deploy if a seri-

ous impact occurs to the underside of your vehicle. Some examples are

shown in the illustration.

■Types of collisions that may not deploy the SRS airbags (SRS front

airbags)

The SRS front airbags do not generally inflate if the vehicle is involved in a

side or rear collision, if it rolls over, or if it is involved in a low-speed frontal

collision. But, whenever a collision of any type causes sufficient forward

deceleration of the vehicle, deployment of the SRS front airbags may occur.

●Hitting a curb, edge of pavement or hard

surface

●Falling into or jumping over a deep hole

●Landing hard or falling

●Collision from the side

●Collision from the rear

●Vehicle rollover

*1: The system judges a person of adult size as an adult. When a smaller

adult sits in the front passenger seat, the system may not recognize

him/her as an adult depending on his/her physique and posture.

*2: In the event the front passenger is wearing a seat belt.

*3: In the event the front passenger does not wear a seat belt.

*4: For some children, child in seat, child in booster seat or child in convert-

ible seat, the system may not recognize him/her as a child. Factors

which may affect this can be the physique or posture.

*5: Never install a rear-facing child restraint system on the front passenger

seat. A forward-facing child restraint system should only be installed on

the front passenger seat when it is unavoidable. (P. 53)

WARNING

■Front passenger occupant classification system precautions

Observe the following precautions regarding the front passenger occupant

classification system.

Failure to do so may cause death or serious injury.

●Wear the seat belt properly.

●Make sure the front passenger’s seat belt plate has not been left inserted

into the buckle before someone sits in the front passenger seat.

●Make sure the “AIR BAG OFF” indicator light is not illuminated when using

the seat belt extender for the front passenger seat. If the “AIR BAG OFF”

indicator light is illuminated, disconnect the extender tongue from the seat

belt buckle, and reconnect the seat belt. Reconnect the seat belt extender

after making sure the “AIR BAG ON” indicator light is illuminated. If you

use the seat belt extender while the “AIR BAG OFF” indicator light is illumi-

nated, the SRS airbags for the passenger may not activate correctly,

which could cause death or serious injury in the event of collision.

●Do not apply a heavy load to the front passenger seat or equipment (e.g.

seatback pocket).

●Do not put weight on the front passenger seat by putting your hands or

feet on the front passenger seat seatback from the rear passenger seat.

●Do not let a rear passenger lift the front passenger seat with their feet or

press on the seatback with their legs.

●Do not put objects under the front passenger seat.

●Do not recline the front passenger seatback so far that it touches a rear

seat. This may cause the “AIR BAG OFF” indicator light to be illuminated,

which indicates that the passenger’s airbags will not deploy in the event of

a severe accident. If the seatback touches the rear seat, return the seat-

back to a position where it does not touch the rear seat. Keep the front

passenger seatback as upright as possible when the vehicle is moving.

Reclining the seatback excessively may lessen the effectiveness of the

seat belt system.

WARNING

■Front passenger occupant classification system precautions

●If an adult sits in the front passenger seat, the “AIR BAG ON” indicator

light is illuminated. If the “AIR BAG OFF” indicator is illuminated, ask the

passenger to sit up straight, well back in the seat, feet on the floor, and

with the seat belt worn correctly. If the “AIR BAG OFF” indicator still

remains illuminated, either ask the passenger to move to the rear seat, or

if that is not possible, move the front passenger seat fully rearward.

●When it is unavoidable to install a forward-facing child restraint system on

the front passenger seat, install the child restraint system on the front pas-

senger seat in the proper order. (P. 57)

●Do not modify or remove the front seats.

●Do not kick the front passenger seat or subject it to severe impact. Other-

wise, the SRS warning light may come on to indicate a malfunction of the

detection system. In this case, contact your Toyota dealer immediately.

●Child restraint systems installed on the rear seat should not contact the

front seatbacks.

●Do not use a seat accessory, such as a cushion and seat cover, that cov-

ers the seat cushion surface.

●Do not modify or replace the upholstery of the front seat.

Safety information for children

●It is recommended that children sit in the rear seats to avoid acci-

dental contact with the shift lever, wiper switch, etc.

●Use the rear door child-protector lock or the window lock switch to

avoid children opening the door while driving or operating the

power window accidentally.

●Do not let small children operate equipment which may catch or

pinch body parts, such as the power window, hood, back door,

seats, etc.

Observe the following precautions when children are in the vehi-

cle.

Use a child restraint system appropriate for the child, until the

child becomes large enough to properly wear the vehicle’s seat

belt.

WARNING

Never leave children unattended in the vehicle, and never allow children to

have or use the key.

Children may be able to start the vehicle or shift the vehicle into neutral.

There is also a danger that children may injure themselves by playing with

the cigarette lighter, the windows or other features of the vehicle. In addi-

tion, heat build-up or extremely cold temperatures inside the vehicle can be

fatal to children.

Child restraint systems

Studies have shown that installing a child restraint on a rear seat is

much safer than installing one on the front passenger seat.

●Choose a child restraint system that suits your vehicle and is appro-

priate to the age and size of the child.

●For installation details, follow the instructions provided with the child

restraint system.

General installation instructions are provided in this manual.

(P. 57)

A child restraint system for a small child or baby must itself be

properly restrained on the seat with the lap portion of the lap/

shoulder belt.

The laws of all 50 states of the U.S.A. and Canada now require

the use of child restraint systems.

YARIS_F_U_52G61U

Child restraint systems are classified into the following 3 types

according to the age and size of the child:

■Selecting an appropriate child restraint system

●Use a child restraint system appropriate for the child until the child becomes

large enough to properly wear the vehicle’s seat belt.

●If the child is too large for a child restraint system, sit the child on a rear seat

and use the vehicle’s seat belt. (P. 26)

Types of child restraints

Rear facing — Infant seat/

convertible seat

Forward facing — Convertible

seat

Booster seat

WARNING

■Child restraint precautions

●For effective protection in automobile accidents and sudden stops, a child

must be properly restrained, using a seat belt or child restraint system

depending on the age and size of the child. Holding a child in your arms is

not a substitute for a child restraint system. In an accident, the child can be

crushed against the windshield, or between you and the vehicle’s interior.

●Toyota strongly urges the use of a proper child restraint system that con-

forms to the size of the child, installed on the rear seat. According to acci-

dent statistics, the child is safer when properly restrained in the rear seat

than in the front seat.

●Never install a rear-facing child restraint system on the front passenger

seat even if the “AIR BAG OFF” indicator light is illuminated. In the event

of an accident, the force of the rapid inflation of the front passenger airbag

can cause death or serious injury to the child if the rear-facing child

restraint system is installed on the front passenger seat.

●A forward-facing child restraint system may be installed on the front pas-

senger seat only when it is unavoidable. A child restraint system that

requires a top tether strap should not be used in the front passenger seat

since there is no top tether strap anchor for the front passenger seat.

Adjust the seatback as upright as possible and always move the seat as

far back as possible even if the “AIR BAG OFF” indicator light is illumi-

nated, because the front passenger airbag could inflate with considerable

speed and force. Otherwise, the child may be killed or seriously injured.

●Do not use the seat belt extender when installing a child restraint system

on the front or rear passenger seat. If installing a child restraint system

with the seat belt extender connected to the seat belt, the seat belt will not

securely hold the child restraint system, which could cause death or seri-

ous injury to the child or other passengers in the event of sudden braking,

sudden swerving or an accident.

WARNING

■Child restraint precautions

●Do not allow the child to lean his/her head or any part of his/her body

against the door or the area of the seat, front and rear pillars or roof side

rails from which the SRS side airbags or SRS curtain shield airbags deploy

even if the child is seated in the child restraint system. It is dangerous if

the SRS side airbags and curtain shield airbags inflate, and the impact

could cause death or serious injury to the child.

●Make sure you have complied with all installation instructions provided by

the child restraint manufacturer and that the system is properly secured. If

it is not secured properly, it may cause death or serious injury to the child

in the event of a sudden stop, sudden swerve or an accident.

■When children are in the vehicle

Do not allow children to play with the seat belt. If the seat belt becomes

twisted around a child’s neck, it may lead to choking or other serious injuries

that could result in death.

If this occurs and the buckle cannot be unfastened, scissors should be used

to cut the belt.

■When the child restraint system is not in use

●Keep the child restraint system properly secured on the seat even if it is

not in use. Do not store the child restraint system unsecured in the pas-

senger compartment.

●If it is necessary to detach the child restraint system, remove it from the

vehicle or store it securely in the luggage compartment. This will prevent it

from injuring passengers in the event of a sudden stop, sudden swerve or

an accident.

WARNING

■When installing a booster seat

To prevent the belt from going into ALR lock mode, do not fully extend the

shoulder belt. ALR mode causes the belt to tighten only. This could cause

injury or discomfort to the child. (P. 29)

■When installing a child restraint system

Follow the directions given in the child restraint system installation manual

and fix the child restraint system securely in place.

If the child restraint system is not correctly fixed in place, the child or other

passengers may be seriously injured or even killed in the event of a sudden

braking, sudden swerving or an accident.

●When a booster seat is installed, always ensure that the shoulder belt is

positioned across the center of the child’s shoulder. The belt should be

kept away from the child’s neck, but not so that it could fall off the child’s

shoulder. Failure to do so may result in death or serious injury in the event

of a sudden braking, sudden swerving or an accident.

●If the driver’s seat interferes with the

child restraint system and prevents it

from being attached correctly, attach the

child restraint system to the rear right

seat.

●Adjust the front passenger seat so that

it does not interfere with the child

restraint system.

●Only put a forward-facing child restraint

system on the front passenger seat

when unavoidable.

When installing a forward-facing child

restraint system on the front passenger

seat, move the seat as far back as pos-

sible even if the “AIR BAG OFF” indica-

tor light is illuminated.

Failure to do so may result in death or

serious injury if the airbags deploy

(inflate).

WARNING

■When installing a child restraint system

●Ensure that the belt and plate are securely locked and the seat belt is not

twisted.

●Shake the child restraint system left and right, and forward and backward

to ensure that it has been securely installed.

●After securing a child restraint system, never adjust the seat.

●Follow all installation instructions provided by the child restraint system

manufacturer.

●When a child restraint system with a top tether strap is installed, do not

install the head restraint. The head restraint may interfere with the top

tether strap preventing secure installation of the child restraint system.

●Make sure to properly store the removed head restraint in a secure place

when you use the child restraint system on the rear seat.

●When securing some types of child restraint systems in rear seats, it may

not be possible to properly use the seat belts in positions next to the child

restraint without interfering with it or affecting seat belt effectiveness. Be

sure your seat belt fits snugly across your shoulder and low on your hips. If

it does not, or if it interferes with the child restraint, move to a different

position. Failure to do so may result in death or serious injury.

■Do not use a seat belt extender

If a seat belt extender is used when installing a child restraint system, the

seat belt will not securely hold the child restraint system, which could cause

death or serious injury to the child or other passengers in the event of sud-

den braking, sudden swerving or an accident.

■To correctly attach a child restraint system to the anchors

When using the LATCH anchors, be sure that there are no foreign objects

around the anchors and that the seat belt is not caught behind the child

restraint system. Make sure the child restraint system is securely attached,

or it may cause death or serious injury to the child or other passengers in

the event of a sudden braking, sudden swerve or an accident.

Exhaust gas precautions

Harmful substances to the human body are included in exhaust

gases if inhale.

WARNING

Exhaust gases contain harmful carbon monoxide (CO), which is colorless and

odorless. Observe the following precautions.

Failure to do so may cause exhaust gases enter the vehicle and may lead to

an accident caused by light-headedness, or may lead to death or a serious

health hazard.

■Important points while driving

●Keep the back door closed.

●If you smell exhaust gases in the vehicle even when the back door is

closed, open the windows and have the vehicle inspected at your Toyota

dealer as soon as possible.

■When parking

●If the vehicle is in a poorly ventilated area or a closed area, such as a

garage, stop the engine.

●Do not leave the vehicle with the engine running for a long time.

If such a situation cannot be avoided, park the vehicle in an open space

and ensure that exhaust fumes do not enter the vehicle interior.

●Do not leave the engine running in an area with snow build-up, or where it

is snowing. If snowbanks build up around the vehicle while the engine is

running, exhaust gases may collect and enter the vehicle.

■Exhaust pipe

The exhaust system needs to be checked periodically. If there is a hole or

crack caused by corrosion, damage to a joint or abnormal exhaust noise, be

sure to have the vehicle inspected and repaired by your Toyota dealer.

WARNING

■Operating the back door

Observe the following precautions.

Failure to do so may cause parts of the body to be caught, resulting in death

or serious injury.

●Remove any heavy loads, such as snow and ice, from the back door

before opening it. Failure to do so may cause the back door to suddenly

shut again after it is opened.

●When opening or closing the back door, thoroughly check to make sure

the surrounding area is safe.

●If anyone is in the vicinity, make sure they are safe and let them know that

the back door is about to open or close.

●Use caution when opening or closing the back door in windy weather as it

may move abruptly in strong wind.

●Do not pull on the back door damper stay to close the back door, and do

not hang on the back door damper stay.

Doing so may cause hands to be caught or the back door damper stay to

break, causing an accident.

●If a bicycle carrier or similar heavy object is attached to the back door, it

may suddenly shut again after being opened, causing someone’s hands,

head or neck to be caught and injured. When installing an accessory part

to the back door, using a genuine Toyota part is recommended.

●The back door may suddenly shut if it is

not opened fully. It is more difficult to

open or close the back door on an

incline than on a level surface, so

beware of the back door unexpectedly

opening or closing by itself. Make sure

that the back door is fully open and

secure before using the luggage com-

partment.

●When closing the back door, take extra

care to prevent your fingers, etc., from

being caught.

●When closing the back door, make sure

to press it lightly on its outer surface. If

the back door handle is used to fully

close the back door, it may result in

hands or arms being caught.

YARIS_F_U_52G61U

WARNING

■When adjusting the seat position

●Take care when adjusting the seat position to ensure that other passen-

gers are not injured by the moving seat.

●Do not put your hands under the seat or near the moving parts to avoid

injury.

Fingers or hands may become jammed in the seat mechanism.

■Seat adjustment

●Be careful that the seat does not hit passenger or luggage.

●To reduce the risk of sliding under the lap belt during a collision, do not

recline the seat more than necessary.

If the seat is too reclined, the lap belt may slide past the hips and apply

restraint forces directly to the abdomen, or your neck may contact the

shoulder belt, increasing the risk of death or serious injury in the event of

an accident.

Adjustments should not be made while driving as the seat may unexpect-

edly move and cause the driver to lose control of the vehicle.

●After adjusting the seat, make sure that the seat is locked in position.

●Never allow anyone to touch seatback lock release levers while the vehi-

cle is moving.

●If anyone is in the vicinity, make sure they are clear of the seat back path

and let them know that the seat is about to move.

■After returning the seatback to the upright position

Make sure the seatback is securely locked by pushing it forward and rear-

ward. Failure to do so may result in death or serious injury.

NOTICE

■To prevent the seat lock mechanism malfunction

Do not use the seatback angle adjustment lever and seatback lock release

lever at the same time. If they are used together, the seat lock mechanism

may be damaged.

serious injury.

●Do not fold the seatbacks down while driving.

●Stop the vehicle on level ground, set the parking brake and shift the shift

lever to P (automatic transmission) or N (manual transmission).

●Do not allow anyone to sit on a folded seatback or in the luggage compart-

ment while driving.

●Do not allow children to enter the luggage compartment.

●Do not allow anyone to sit on the rear center seat if the rear right seat is

folded down, as the seat belt buckle for the rear center seat belt is then

concealed under the folded seat and cannot be used.

●Be careful not to catch your hand when folding the rear seatbacks.

●If it is necessary to detach the head restraints, remove it from the vehicle

or store it securely in the luggage compartment. This will prevent it from

injuring passengers in the event of sudden braking, sudden swerving or an

accident.

●Depending on the position of the front seat, it may interfere when trying to

fold down the rear seatbacks. If this happens, adjust the position of the

front seat.

■Driving in the rain

●Drive carefully when it is raining, because visibility will be reduced, the win-

dows may become fogged-up, and the road will be slippery.

●Drive carefully when it starts to rain, because the road surface will be espe-

cially slippery.

●Refrain from high speeds when driving on an expressway in the rain,

because there may be a layer of water between the tires and the road sur-

face, preventing the steering and brakes from operating properly.

■When driving the vehicle

●Do not drive if you are unfamiliar with the location of the brake and accel-

erator pedals to avoid depressing the wrong pedal.

• Accidentally depressing the accelerator pedal instead of the brake

pedal will result in sudden acceleration that may lead to an accident.

• When backing up, you may twist your body around, leading to difficulty

in operating the pedals. Make sure to operate the pedals properly.

• Make sure to keep a correct driving posture even when moving the

vehicle only slightly. This allows you to depress the brake and accelera-

tor pedals properly.

• Depress the brake pedal using your right foot. Depressing the brake

pedal using your left foot may delay response in an emergency, result-

ing in an accident.

YARIS_F_U_52G61U

WARNING

Observe the following precautions.

Failure to do so may result in death or serious injury.

●Do not drive the vehicle over or stop the vehicle near flammable materials.

The exhaust system and exhaust gases can be extremely hot. These hot

parts may cause a fire if there is any flammable material nearby.

●During normal driving, do not turn off the engine. Turning the engine off

while driving will not cause loss of steering or braking control, but the

power assist to these systems will be lost. This will make it more difficult to

steer and brake, so you should pull over and stop the vehicle as soon as it

is safe to do so.

However, in the event of an emergency, such as if it becomes impossible

to stop the vehicle in the normal way: P. 263

●Use engine braking (downshift) to maintain a safe speed when driving

down a steep hill.

Using the brakes continuously may cause the brakes to overheat and lose

effectiveness. (P. 139, 141)

●Do not adjust the positions of the steering wheel, the seat, or the inside or

outside rear view mirrors while driving.

Doing so may result in a loss of vehicle control.

●Always check that all passengers’ arms, heads or other parts of their body

are not outside the vehicle.

●Do not drive in excess of the speed limit. Even if the legal speed limit per-

mits it, do not drive over 85 mph (140 km/h) unless your vehicle has high-

speed capability tires. Driving over 85 mph (140 km/h) may result in tire

failure, loss of control and possible injury. Be sure to consult a tire dealer

to determine whether the tires on your vehicle are high-speed capability

tires or not before driving at such speeds.

122 4-1. Before driving

YARIS_F_U_52G61U

WARNING

Observe the following precautions.

Failure to do so may result in death or serious injury.

■When driving on slippery road surfaces

●Sudden braking, acceleration and steering may cause tire slippage and

reduce your ability to control the vehicle.

●Sudden acceleration, engine braking due to shifting, or changes in engine

speed could cause the vehicle to skid, resulting in an accident.

●After driving through a puddle, depress the brake pedal to make sure that

the brakes are functioning properly. Wet brake pads may prevent the

brakes from functioning properly. If the brakes on only one side are wet

and not functioning properly, steering control may be affected.

■When shifting the shift lever

●On vehicles with an automatic transmission, do not let the vehicle roll

backward while the shift lever is in a driving position, or roll forward while

the shift lever is in R.

Doing so may cause the engine to stall or lead to poor brake and steering

performance, resulting in an accident or damage to the vehicle.

●On vehicles with an automatic transmission, do not shift the shift lever to P

while the vehicle is moving.

Doing so can damage the transmission and may result in a loss of vehicle

control.

●Do not shift the shift lever to R while the vehicle is moving forward.

Doing so can damage the transmission and may result in a loss of vehicle

control.

●Do not shift the shift lever to a driving position while the vehicle is moving

backward. Doing so can damage the transmission and may result in a loss

of vehicle control.

●Shifting the shift lever to N while the vehicle is moving will disengage the

engine from the transmission. Engine braking is not available when N is

selected.

●On vehicles with an automatic transmission, be careful not to shift the shift

lever with the accelerator pedal depressed. Shifting the shift lever to a

gear other than P or N may lead to unexpected rapid acceleration of the

vehicle that may cause an accident and result in death or serious injury.

WARNING

■If you hear a squealing or scraping noise (brake pad wear limit indica-

tors)

Have the brake pads checked and replaced by your Toyota dealer as soon

as possible.

Rotor damage may result if the pads are not replaced when needed.

It is dangerous to drive the vehicle when the wear limits of the brake pads

and/or those of the brake discs are exceeded.

■When the vehicle is stopped

●Do not race the engine.

If the vehicle is in any gear other than P (automatic transmission) or N, the

vehicle may accelerate suddenly and unexpectedly, causing an accident.

●On vehicles with an automatic transmission, in order to prevent accidents

due to the vehicle rolling away, always keep depressing the brake pedal

while the engine is running, and apply the parking brake as necessary.

●If the vehicle is stopped on an incline, in order to prevent accidents caused

by the vehicle rolling forward or backward, always depress the brake pedal

and securely apply the parking brake as needed.

●Avoid revving or racing the engine.

Running the engine at high speed while the vehicle is stopped may cause

the exhaust system to overheat, which could result in a fire if combustible

material is nearby.

■When the vehicle is parked

●Do not leave glasses, cigarette lighters, spray cans, or soft drink cans in

the vehicle when it is in the sun.

Doing so may result in the following:

• Gas may leak from a cigarette lighter or spray can, and may lead to a

fire.

• The temperature inside the vehicle may cause the plastic lenses and

plastic material of glasses to deform or crack.

• Soft drink cans may rupture, causing the contents to spray over the

interior of the vehicle, and may also cause a short circuit in the vehicle’s

electrical components.

●Do not leave cigarette lighters in the vehicle. If a cigarette lighter is in a

place such as the glove box or on the floor, it may be lit accidentally when

luggage is loaded or the seat is adjusted, causing a fire.

WARNING

●Do not attach adhesive discs to the windshield or windows. Do not place

containers such as air fresheners on the instrument panel or dashboard.

Adhesive discs or containers may act as lenses, causing a fire in the vehi-

cle.

●Do not leave a door or window open if the curved glass is coated with a

metallized film such as a silver-colored one. Reflected sunlight may cause

the glass to act as a lens, causing a fire.

●Always apply the parking brake, shift the shift lever to P (automatic trans-

mission), stop the engine and lock the vehicle.

Do not leave the vehicle unattended while the engine is running.

●Do not touch the exhaust pipes while the engine is running or immediately

after turning the engine off.

Doing so may cause burns.

■When taking a nap in the vehicle

Always turn the engine off. Otherwise, if you accidentally move the shift

lever or depress the accelerator pedal, this could cause an accident or fire

due to engine overheating. Additionally, if the vehicle is parked in a poorly

ventilated area, exhaust gases may collect and enter the vehicle, leading to

death or a serious health hazard.

■When braking

●When the brakes are wet, drive more cautiously.

Braking distance increases when the brakes are wet, and this may cause

one side of the vehicle to brake differently than the other side. Also, the

parking brake may not securely hold the vehicle.

●If the power brake assist function does not operate, do not follow other

vehicles closely and avoid hills or sharp turns that require braking.

In this case, braking is still possible, but the brake pedal should be

Have your brakes fixed immediately.

●Do not pump the brake pedal if the engine stalls.

Each push on the brake pedal uses up the reserve for the power-assisted

brakes.

●The brake system consists of 2 individual hydraulic systems; if one of the

systems fails, the other will still operate. In this case, the brake pedal

should be depressed more firmly than usual and the braking distance will

increase. Have your brakes fixed immediately.

Cargo and luggage

Cargo capacity depends on the total weight of the occupants.

(Cargo capacity) = (Total load capacity)  (Total weight of occupants)

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 lug-

gage 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  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.

Take notice of the following information about storage precau-

tions, cargo capacity and load:

●Stow cargo and luggage in the luggage compartment whenever

possible.

●Be sure all items are secured in place.

●To maintain vehicle balance while driving, position luggage evenly

within the luggage compartment.

●For better fuel economy, do not carry unnecessary weight.

(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.

Toyota does not recommend towing a trailer with your vehicle. Your

vehicle is not designed for trailer towing.

Cargo capacity

Total load capacity (vehicle

capacity weight) (P. 306)

When 2 people with the combined weight of A lb. (kg) are riding in

your vehicle, which has a total load capacity (vehicle capacity weight)

of B lb. (kg), the available amount of cargo and luggage load capacity

will be C lb. (kg) as follows:

B*2 lb. (kg) A*1 lb. (kg) = C*3 lb. (kg)

*1: A = Weight of people

*2: B = Total load capacity

*3: C = Available cargo and luggage load

In this condition, if 3 more passengers with the combined weight of

D lb. (kg) get on, the available cargo and luggage load will be reduced

E lb. (kg) as follows:

C lb. (kg) D*4 lb. (kg) = E*5 lb. (kg)

*4: D = Additional weight of people

*5: E = Available cargo and luggage load

Driving

YARIS_F_U_52G61U

As shown in the example above, if the number of occupants

increases, the cargo and luggage load will be reduced by an amount

that equals the increased weight due to the additional occupants. In

other words, if an increase in the number of occupants causes an

excess of the total load capacity (combined weight of occupants plus

cargo and luggage load), you must reduce the cargo and luggage on

your vehicle.

WARNING

■Things that must not be carried in the luggage compartment

The following things may cause a fire if loaded in the luggage compart-

ment:

●Receptacles containing gasoline

●Aerosol cans

■Storage precautions

Observe the following precautions.

Failure to do so may prevent the pedals from being depressed properly,

may block the driver’s vision, or may result in items hitting the driver or

passengers, possibly causing an accident.

●Stow cargo and luggage in the luggage compartment whenever possi-

ble.

●Do not stack anything in the luggage compartment higher than the

seatbacks.

●Do not place cargo or luggage in or on the following locations:

• At the feet of the driver

• On the front passenger or rear seats (when stacking items)

• On the luggage cover

• On the instrument panel

• On the dashboard

●Secure all items in the occupant compartment.

●When you fold down the rear seats, long items should not be place

directly behind the front seats.

●Never allow anyone to ride in the luggage compartment. It is not

designed for passengers. They should ride in their seats with their seat

belts properly fastened. Otherwise, they are much more likely to suffer

death or serious bodily injury, in the event of sudden braking, sudden

swerving or an accident.

than the total load capacity, do not apply the load unevenly. Improper

loading may cause deterioration of steering or braking control which

may cause death or serious injury.

■Fuel types

P. 317

■Fuel tank opening for unleaded gasoline

To help prevent incorrect fueling, your vehicle has a fuel tank opening that

only accommodates the special nozzle on unleaded fuel pumps.

WARNING

■When refueling the vehicle

Observe the following precautions while refueling the vehicle. Failure to do

so may result in death or serious injury.

●After exiting the vehicle and before opening the fuel door, touch an

unpainted metal surface to discharge any static electricity. It is important to

discharge static electricity before refueling because sparks resulting from

static electricity can cause fuel vapors to ignite while refueling.

●Always hold the grips on the fuel tank cap and turn it slowly to remove it.

A whooshing sound may be heard when the fuel tank cap is loosened.

Wait until the sound cannot be heard before fully removing the cap. In hot

weather, pressurized fuel may spray out the filler neck and cause injury.

●Do not allow anyone that has not discharged static electricity from their

body to come close to an open fuel tank.

●Do not inhale vaporized fuel.

Fuel contains substances that are harmful if inhaled.

●Do not smoke while refueling the vehicle.

Doing so may cause the fuel to ignite and cause a fire.

●Do not return to the vehicle or touch any person or object that is statically

charged.

This may cause static electricity to build up, resulting in a possible ignition

hazard.

■When refueling

Observe the following precautions to prevent fuel overflowing from the fuel

tank:

●Securely insert the fuel nozzle into the fuel filler neck.

●Stop filling the tank after the fuel nozzle automatically clicks off.

●Do not top off the fuel tank.

■When replacing the fuel tank cap

Do not use anything but a genuine Toyota fuel tank cap designed for your

vehicle. Doing so may cause a fire or other incident which may result in

death or serious injury.

Rotate the tires in the order

shown.

To equalize tire wear and extend

tire life, Toyota recommends that

tire rotation is carried out at the

same interval as tire inspection.

Vehicles with P195/50R16 tires:

Do not fail to initialize the tire

pressure warning system after

tire rotation.

Your vehicle is equipped with a tire pressure warning system that uses

tire pressure warning valves and transmitters to detect low tire infla-

tion pressure before serious problems arise. (P. 274)

The compact spare tire is not equipped with a tire pressure warning

valve and transmitter.

When replacing tires or wheels, tire pressure warning valves and

transmitters must also be installed.

When new tire pressure warning valves and transmitters are installed,

new ID codes must be registered in the tire pressure warning computer

and the tire pressure warning system must be initialized. Have tire

pressure warning valve and transmitter ID codes registered by your

Toyota dealer. (P. 225)

■The tire pressure warning system must be initialized in the fol-

lowing circumstances:

●For vehicles with P195/50R16 tires, when rotating front and rear

tires which have different tire inflation pressures

●When the tire inflation pressure is changed such as when chang-

ing traveling speed

When the tire pressure warning system is initialized, the current tire

inflation pressure is set as the benchmark pressure.

■When to replace your vehicle’s tires

Tires should be replaced if:

●The treadwear indicators are showing on a tire.

●You have tire damage such as cuts, splits, cracks deep enough to

expose the fabric, and bulges indicating internal damage

●A tire goes flat repeatedly or cannot be properly repaired due to the size

or location of a cut or other damage

If you are not sure, consult with your Toyota dealer.

■Replacing tires and wheels (vehicles with a tire pressure warning

system)

If the ID code of the tire pressure warning valve and transmitter is not reg-

istered, the tire pressure warning system will not work properly. After driv-

ing for about 20 minutes, the tire pressure warning light blinks for 1

minute and stays on to indicate a system malfunction.

■Tire life

Any tire over 6 years old must be checked by a qualified technician even

if it has seldom or never been used or damage is not obvious.

■Routine tire inflation pressure checks (vehicles with a tire pressure

warning system)

The tire pressure warning system does not replace routine tire inflation

pressure checks. Make sure to check tire inflation pressure as part of

your routine of daily vehicle checks.

■Low profile tires (vehicles with 195/50R16 tires)

Generally, low profile tires will wear more rapidly and tire grip perfor-

mance will be reduced on snowy and/or icy roads when compared to

standard tires. Be sure to use snow tires or tire chains on snowy and/or

icy roads and drive carefully at a speed appropriate for road and weather

conditions.

■Maximum load of tire

Check that the maximum load of the replacement tire is greater than 1/2

of the Gross Axle Weight Ratings (GAWR) of either the front axle or the

rear axle, whichever is greater.

■Tire types

●Summer tires

Summer tires are high-speed performance tires best suited to highway

driving under dry conditions. Since summer tires do not have the same

traction performance as snow tires, summer tires are inadequate for

driving on snow-covered or icy roads. For driving on snow-covered

roads or icy roads, the use of snow tires is recommended. When install-

ing snow tires, be sure to replace all four tires.

●All season tires

All season tires are designed to provide better traction in snow and to

be adequate for driving in most winter conditions as well as for use

year-round. All season tires, however, do not have adequate traction

performance compared with snow tires in heavy or loose snow. Also, all

season tires fall short in acceleration and handling performance com-

pared with summer tires in highway driving.

●Snow tires

For driving on snow-covered roads or icy roads, we recommend using

snow tires. If you need snow tires, select tires of the same size, con-

struction and load capacity as the originally installed tires. Since your

vehicle has radial tires as original equipment, make sure your snow

tires also have radial construction. Do not install studded tires without

first checking local regulations for possible restrictions. Snow tires

should be installed on all wheels. (P. 167)

For the GAWR, see the Certification

Label. For the maximum load of the tire,

see the load limit at maximum cold tire

inflation pressure mentioned on the

sidewall of the tire. (P. 320)

fied level.

■If the tread on snow tires wears down below 0.16 in. (4 mm)

The effectiveness of the tires as snow tires is lost.

■If you press the tire pressure warning reset switch accidentally (vehi-

cles with a tire pressure warning system)

If initialization is performed, adjust the tire inflation pressure to the speci-

fied level and initialize the tire pressure warning system again.

■When the initialization of the tire pressure warning system has failed

(vehicles with a tire pressure warning system)

Initialization can be completed in a few minutes. However, in the following

cases, the settings has not been recorded and the system will not operate

properly. If repeated attempts to record tire inflation pressure settings are

unsuccessful, have the vehicle inspected by your Toyota dealer.

●When operating the tire pressure warning reset switch, the tire pressure

warning light does not blink 3 times.

●After driving for a certain period of time since the initialization has been

completed, the warning light comes on after blinks for 1 minute.

ing system)

●When removing or fitting the wheels, tires or the tire pressure warning

valves and transmitters, contact your Toyota dealer as the tire pres-

sure warning valves and transmitters may be damaged if not handled

correctly.

●When replacing tire valve caps, do not use tire valve caps other than

those specified. The cap may become stuck.

■To avoid damage to the tire pressure warning valves and transmit-

ters (vehicles with a tire pressure warning system)

When a tire is repaired with liquid sealants, the tire pressure warning

valve and transmitter may not operate properly. If a liquid sealant is

used, contact your Toyota dealer or other qualified service shop as soon

as possible. Make sure to replace the tire pressure warning valve and

transmitter when replacing the tire. (P. 224)

■Driving on rough roads

Take particular care when driving on roads with loose surfaces or pot-

holes.

These conditions may cause losses in tire inflation pressure, reducing

the cushioning ability of the tires. In addition, driving on rough roads

may cause damage to the tires themselves, as well as the vehicle’s

wheels and body.

■Low profile tires (vehicles with 195/50R16 tires)

Low profile tires may cause greater damage than usual to the tire wheel

when sustaining impact from the road surface. Therefore, pay attention

to the following:

●Be sure to use proper tire inflation pressure. If tires are under-inflated,

they may be damaged more severely.

●Avoid potholes, uneven pavement, curbs and other road hazards. Fail-

ure to do so may lead to severe tire and wheel damage.

■If tire inflation pressure of each tire becomes low while driving

Do not continue driving, or your tires and/or wheels may be ruined.

■Tire inflation pressure check interval

You should check tire inflation pressure every two weeks, or at least once

a month.

Do not forget to check the spare.

■Effects of incorrect tire inflation pressure

Driving with incorrect tire inflation pressure may result in the following:

●Reduced fuel economy

●Reduced driving comfort and poor handling

●Reduced tire life due to wear

●Reduced safety

●Damage to the drive train

If a tire needs frequent inflating, have it checked by your Toyota dealer.

■Instructions for checking tire inflation pressure

When checking tire inflation pressure, observe the following:

●Check only when the tires are cold.

If your vehicle has been parked for at least 3 hours or has not been

driven for more than 1 mile or 1.5 km, you will get an accurate cold tire

inflation pressure reading.

●Always use a tire pressure gauge.

It is difficult to judge if a tire is properly inflated based only on its appear-

ance.

●It is normal for the tire inflation pressure to be higher after driving as

heat is generated in the tire. Do not reduce tire inflation pressure after

driving.

●Never exceed the vehicle capacity weight.

Passengers and luggage weight should be placed so that the vehicle is

balanced.

●When rotating, repairing or changing your tires, check that the

wheel nuts are still tight after driving 1000 miles (1600 km).

●Be careful not to damage the aluminum wheels when using tire

chains.

●Use only Toyota genuine balance weights or equivalent and a plas-

tic or rubber hammer when balancing your wheels.

If a wheel is bent, cracked or heavily corroded, it should be

replaced. Otherwise, the tire may separate from the wheel or

cause a loss of handling control.

■When replacing wheels (vehicles with a tire pressure warning sys-

tem)

The wheels of your vehicle, except for the compact spare tire, are

equipped with tire pressure warning valves and transmitters that allow the

tire pressure warning system to provide advance warning in the event of

a loss in tire inflation pressure. Whenever wheels are replaced, tire pres-

sure warning valves and transmitters must be installed. (P. 224)

WARNING

■When replacing wheels

●Do not use wheels that are a different size from those recommended in

the Owner’s Manual, as this may result in a loss of handling control.

●Never use an inner tube in a leaking wheel which is designed for a

tubeless tire. Doing so may result in an accident, causing death or seri-

ous injury.

■When installing the wheel nuts

●Never use oil or grease on the wheel bolts or wheel nuts.

Oil and grease may cause the wheel nuts to be excessively tightened,

leading to bolt or disc wheel damage. In addition, the oil or grease can

cause the wheel nuts to loosen and the wheel may fall off, causing an

accident and resulting in death or serious injury. Remove any oil or

grease from the wheel bolts or wheel nuts.

■Use of defective wheels prohibited

Do not use cracked or deformed wheels.

Doing so could cause the tire to leak air during driving, possibly causing

an accident.

●Be sure to install the wheel nuts with

the tapered ends facing inward.

Installing the nuts with the tapered

ends facing outward can cause the

wheel to break and eventually cause

the wheel to come off while driving,

which could lead to an accident

resulting in death or serious injury.

●Because tire repair or replacement may affect the tire pressure warn-

ing valves and transmitters, make sure to have tires serviced by your

Toyota dealer or other qualified service shop. In addition, make sure to

purchase your tire pressure warning valves and transmitters at your

Toyota dealer.

●Ensure that only genuine Toyota wheels are used on your vehicle.

Tire pressure warning valves and transmitters may not work properly

with non-genuine wheels.

NOTICE

■To prevent damage to the vehicle when towing using a wheel-lift type

truck

●Do not tow the vehicle from the rear when the engine switch is in the

“LOCK” position or the key is removed.

The steering lock mechanism is not strong enough to hold the front wheels

straight.

●When raising the vehicle, ensure adequate ground clearance for towing at

the opposite end of the raised vehicle. Without adequate clearance, the

vehicle could be damaged while being towed.

■To prevent damage to the vehicle when towing with a sling-type truck

Do not tow with a sling-type truck, either from the front or rear.

■To prevent damage to the vehicle during emergency towing

Do not secure cables or chains to the suspension components.

Be sure to transport the vehicle with the

front wheels raised or with all four wheels

raised off the ground. If the vehicle is

towed with the front wheels contacting

the ground, the drivetrain and related

■If the tire pressure warning light frequently comes on after blinking

for 1 minute (vehicles with a tire pressure warning system)

If the tire pressure warning light frequently comes on after blinking for

1 minute when the engine switch is turned to the “ON” position, have it

checked by your Toyota dealer.

■Customization that can be configured at Toyota dealer

The vehicle speed linked seat belt reminder buzzer can be disabled.

(Customizable features P. 333) However, Toyota recommends that the seat

belt reminder buzzer be operational to alert the driver and front passenger

when seat belts are not fastened.

WARNING

■When the electric power steering system warning light comes on

The steering wheel may become extremely heavy.

If the steering wheel becomes heavier than usual when operating, hold

firmly and operate using more force than usual.

■If the tire pressure warning light comes on (vehicles with a tire

pressure warning system)

Be sure to observe the following precautions. Failure to do so could

cause a loss of vehicle control and result in death or serious injury.

●Stop your vehicle in a safe place as soon as possible. Adjust the tire

inflation pressure immediately.

●If the tire pressure warning light comes on even after tire inflation pres-

sure adjustment, it is probable that you have a flat tire. Check the tires.

If a tire is flat, change it with the spare tire and have the flat tire

repaired by the nearest Toyota dealer.

●Avoid abrupt maneuvering and braking. If the vehicle tires deteriorate,

you could lose control of the steering wheel or the brakes.

■If a blowout or sudden air leakage should occur (vehicles with a tire

pressure warning system)

When trouble arises

YARIS_F_U_52G61U

WARNING

■Maintenance of the tire (vehicles with a tire pressure warning sys-

tem)

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 (tire and load information label). (If your vehicle has tires of a dif-

ferent size than the size indicated on the vehicle placard or tire inflation

pressure label [tire and load information 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-tire pressure warning system) that

illuminates a low tire pressure telltale (tire pressure warning light) when

one or more of your tires is significantly under-inflated. Accordingly,

when the low tire pressure telltale (tire pressure warning light) illumi-

nates, 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 (tire pressure warning system) is not a sub-

stitute 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 (tire

pressure warning light).

YARIS_F_U_52G61U

WARNING

Your vehicle has also been equipped with a TPMS (tire pressure warn-

ing system) malfunction indicator to indicate when the system is not

operating properly. The TPMS (tire pressure warning system) malfunc-

tion indicator is combined with the low tire pressure telltale (tire pressure

warning light). When the system detects a malfunction, the telltale will

flash for approximately one minute and then remain continuously illumi-

nated. This sequence will continue upon subsequent vehicle start-ups

as long as the malfunction exists. When the malfunction indicator is illu-

minated, the system may not be able to detect or signal low tire pres-

sure as intended.

TPMS (tire pressure warning system) malfunctions may occur for a vari-

ety of reasons, including the installation of replacement or alternate tires

or wheels on the vehicle that prevent the TPMS (tire pressure warning

system) from functioning properly. Always check the TPMS (tire pres-

sure warning system) malfunction telltale after replacing one or more

tires or wheels on your vehicle to ensure that the replacement or alter-

nate tires and wheels allow the TPMS (tire pressure warning system) to

continue to function properly.

NOTICE

■To ensure the tire pressure warning system operates properly

(vehicles with a tire pressure warning system)

Do not install tires with different specifications or makers, as the tire

pressure warning system may not operate properly.

Once the engine starts, have the vehicle inspected at your Toyota

dealer as soon as possible.

■Starting the engine when the battery is discharged (vehicles with an

automatic transmission)

The engine cannot be started by push-starting.

■To prevent battery discharge

●Turn off the headlights and the audio system while the engine is not running.

●Turn off any unnecessary electrical components when the vehicle is running

at a low speed for an extended period, such as in heavy traffic.

■Charging the battery

The electricity stored in the battery will discharge gradually even when the

vehicle is not in use, due to natural discharge and the draining effects of cer-

tain electrical appliances. If the vehicle is left for a long time, the battery may

discharge, and the engine may be unable to start. (The battery recharges

automatically during driving.)

Fuel information

■Gasoline quality

In very few cases, driveability problems may be caused by the brand of gaso-

line you are using. If driveability problems persist, try changing the brand of

gasoline. If this does not correct the problem, consult your Toyota dealer.

■Gasoline quality standards

●Automotive manufacturers in the U.S.A., Europe and Japan have developed

a specification for fuel quality called World-Wide Fuel Charter (WWFC),

which is expected to be applied worldwide.

●The WWFC consists of four categories that are based on required emission

levels. In the U.S., category 4 has been adopted.

●The WWFC improves air quality by lowering emissions in vehicle fleets, and

improves customer satisfaction through better performance.

■Recommendation of the use of gasoline containing detergent additives

●Toyota recommends the use of gasoline that contains detergent additives to

avoid the build-up of engine deposits.

●All gasoline sold in the U.S.A. contains minimum detergent additives to

clean and/or keep clean intake systems, per EPA’s lowest additives concen-

tration program.

●Toyota strongly recommends the use of Top Tier Detergent Gasoline. For

more information on Top Tier Detergent Gasoline and a list of marketers,

please go to the official website www.toptiergas.com.

You must only use unleaded gasoline.

Select octane rating 87 (Research Octane Number 91) or higher.

Use of unleaded gasoline with an octane rating lower than 87

may result in engine knocking. Persistent knocking can lead to

engine damage.

At minimum, the gasoline you use should meet the specifications of

ASTM D4814 in the U.S.A..

YARIS_F_U_52G61U

■Recommendation of the use of low emissions gasoline

Gasolines containing oxygenates such as ethers and ethanol, as well as

reformulated gasolines, are available in some cities. These fuels are typically

acceptable for use, providing they meet other fuel requirements.

Toyota recommends these fuels, since the formulations allow for reduced

vehicle emissions.

■Non-recommendation of the use of blended gasoline

●If you use gasohol in your vehicle, be sure that it has an octane rating no

lower than 87.

●Toyota does not recommend the use of gasoline containing methanol.

■Non-recommendation of the use of gasoline containing MMT

Some gasoline contains an octane enhancing additive called MMT (Methylcy-

clopentadienyl Manganese Tricarbonyl).

Toyota does not recommend the use of gasoline that contains MMT. If fuel

containing MMT is used, your emission control system may be adversely

affected.

The malfunction indicator lamp on the instrument cluster may come on. If this

happens, contact your Toyota dealer for service.

●Use only gasoline containing up to 15%

ethanol.

DO NOT use any flex-fuel or gasoline

that could contain more than 15% etha-

nol, including from any pump labeled

E30, E50, E85 (which are only some

examples of fuel containing more than

15% ethanol).

DO NOT use gasoline

containing more than

15% ethanol.

■If your engine knocks

●Consult your Toyota dealer.

●You may occasionally notice light knocking for a short time while accelerat-

ing or driving uphill. This is normal and there is no need for concern.

NOTICE

■Notice on fuel quality

●Do not use improper fuels. If improper fuels are used, the engine will be

damaged.

●Do not use leaded gasoline.

Leaded gasoline can cause damage to your vehicle’s three-way catalytic

●Do not use gasohol other than the type previously stated.

Other gasohol may cause fuel system damage or vehicle performance

problems.

●Using unleaded gasoline with an octane number or rating lower than the

level previously stated will cause persistent heavy knocking.

At worst, this will lead to engine damage.

■Fuel-related poor driveability

If poor driveability (poor hot starting, vaporization, engine knocking, etc.) is

encountered after using a different type of fuel, discontinue the use of that

type of fuel.

■When refueling with gasohol

Take care not to spill gasohol. It can damage your vehicle’s paint.

This information has been prepared in accordance with regulations

issued by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration of the

U.S. Department of Transportation.

It provides the purchasers and/or prospective purchasers of Toyota

vehicles with information on uniform tire quality grading.

Your Toyota dealer will help answer any questions you may have as

you read this information.

■DOT quality grades

All passenger vehicle tires must conform to Federal Safety Require-

ments in addition to these grades. Quality grades can be found

where applicable on the tire sidewall between tread shoulder and

maximum section width.

For example: Treadwear 200 Traction AA Temperature A

■Treadwear

The treadwear grade is a comparative rating based on the wear

rate of the tire when tested under controlled conditions on a speci-

fied government test course.

For example, a tire graded 150 would wear one and a half (1 - 1/2)

times as well on the government course as a tire graded 100.

The relative performance of tires depends upon the actual condi-

tions of their use. Performance may differ significantly from the norm

due to 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,

and they 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 cornering (turn-

ing) traction.

■Temperature A, B, C

The temperature grades are A (the highest), B, and C, representing

the tire’s resistance to the generation of heat and its ability to dissi-

pate 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 temperature can lead

to sudden tire failure.

The grade C corresponds to a level of performance which all pas-

senger car tires must meet under the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety

Standard No. 109.

Grades B and A represent higher levels of performance on the labo-

ratory test wheel than the minimum required by law.

Warning: The temperature grades for this tire are established for a

tire that is properly inflated and not overloaded.

Excessive speed, underinflation, or excessive loading, either sepa-

rately or in combination, can cause heat buildup and possible tire

failure.

AVERTISSEMENT

■Précautions avec les coussins gonflables SRS

Respectez les précautions suivantes concernant les coussins gonflables

SRS.

À défaut, des blessures graves, voire mortelles, pourraient s’ensuivre.

●Le conducteur et tous les passagers à bord du véhicule doivent porter leur

ceinture de sécurité correctement.

Les coussins gonflables SRS sont des dispositifs de protection complé-

mentaires aux ceintures de sécurité.

●Le coussin gonflable SRS conducteur se déploie avec une puissance con-

sidérable et peut occasionner des blessures graves, voire mortelles, nota-

mment lorsque le conducteur se trouve très près du coussin gonflable.

L’autorité fédérale chargée de la sécurité routière aux États-Unis, la

NHTSA (National Highway Traffic Safety Administration) conseille:

Sachant que la zone de danger pour le coussin gonflable conducteur se

trouve dans les premiers 50 à 75 mm (2 à 3 pouces) du déploiement,

placez-vous à 250 mm (10 pouces) du coussin gonflable conducteur pour

garantir une marge de sécurité suffisante. Cette distance est à mesurer

entre le moyeu du volant de direction et le sternum. Si vous êtes assis à

moins de 10 in. (250 mm), vous pouvez changer votre position de con-

duite de plusieurs façons:

• Reculez votre siège le plus possible, tout en continuant à pouvoir

atteindre confortablement les pédales.

• Inclinez légèrement le dossier du siège. Bien que les véhicules soient

différents les uns des autres, la plupart des conducteurs peuvent

s’asseoir à une distance de 250 mm (10 in.), même avec le siège con-

ducteur complètement avancé, simplement en inclinant un peu le dos-

sier de siège. Si vous avez des difficultés à voir la route après avoir

incliné votre siège, utilisez un coussin ferme et antidérapant pour vous

rehausser ou, si votre véhicule est équipé du réglage en hauteur du

siège, remontez-le.

• Si votre volant de direction est réglable, inclinez-le vers le bas. Cela

vous permet d’orienter le coussin gonflable vers votre buste plutôt que

vers la tête et le cou.

Le siège doit être réglé selon les recommandations de la NHTSA ci-des-

sus, tout en conservant le contrôle des pédales et du volant, et la vue des

commandes au tableau de bord.

possible du coussin gonflable et le dossier doit être réglé de manière à ce

que le passager avant soit assis bien droit.

●Le déploiement d’un coussin gonflable peut infliger des blessures graves,

voire mortelles, aux nourrissons et aux enfants mal assis et/ou mal

attachés. Installez dans un siège de sécurité enfant les enfants trop jeunes

pour pouvoir utiliser la ceinture de sécurité. Toyota recommande vivement

que tous les nourrissons et enfants soient installés dans les sièges arrière

du véhicule et convenablement attachés. Les sièges arrière sont plus sûrs

pour les nourrissons et les enfants que le siège passager avant.

●N’installez jamais un siège de sécurité enfant type dos à la route sur le

siège passager avant, même si le voyant “AIR BAG OFF” est allumé. En

cas d’accident, la force exercée par le déploiement rapide du coussin gon-

flable passager avant peut causer des blessures graves, voire mortelles à

un enfant, si le siège de sécurité enfant type dos à la route est installé sur

le siège passager avant.

●Si vous attachez une rallonge de cein-

ture de sécurité aux boucles des cein-

tures de sièges avant, mais pas au

pêne de la ceinture de sécurité propre-

ment dite, les coussins gonflables SRS

frontaux déterminent que le conducteur

et le passager avant portent leur cein-

ture de sécurité, alors même qu’elle

n’est pas attachée. Dans ce cas, les

coussins gonflables SRS frontaux ris-

quent de ne pas se déployer correcte-

ment en cas de collision, causant des

blessures graves, voire mortelles.

Veillez à porter la ceinture de sécurité

avec la rallonge de ceinture de sécurité.

●Ne pas s’asseoir sur le bord du siège et

ne pas s’appuyer contre la planche de

bord.

AVERTISSEMENT

■Précautions avec les coussins gonflables SRS

●Ne pas laisser un enfant rester debout

devant le coussin gonflable SRS pas-

sager avant ni assis sur les genoux du

passager avant.

●Ne pas laisser les occupants des sièges

avant voyager avec un objet sur les

genoux.

●Ne pas s’appuyer contre la porte, contre

le rail latéral de toit ou contre les mon-

tants avant, latéraux et arrière.

●Interdisez à quiconque de s’agenouiller

sur le siège passager en appui contre la

porte ou de sortir la tête ou les mains à

l’extérieur du véhicule.

●Ne rien fixer ou disposer sur la planche

de bord, la garniture centrale du moyeu

de volant de direction et la partie

inférieure du tableau de bord.

Lors du déploiement des coussins gon-

flables SRS conducteur, passager

avant et de genoux conducteur, tout

objet risque de se transformer en pro-

jectile.

AVERTISSEMENT

■Précautions avec les coussins gonflables SRS

●Ne pas suspendre aux crochets à vêtements un cintre nu ni aucun objet

dur ou tranchant. En cas de déploiement des coussins gonflables SRS

rideau, tous ces objets pourraient se transformer en projectiles et causer

des blessures graves, voire mortelles.

●Si une housse en vinyle recouvre la partie où le coussin gonflable SRS de

genoux conducteur se déploie, veillez à l’enlever.

●N’utilisez aucun accessoire de siège venant recouvrir les zones de

déploiement des coussins gonflables SRS latéraux et des coussins gon-

flables SRS d’assise de siège, car il risquerait d’en gêner le déploiement.

De tels accessoires peuvent empêcher les coussins gonflables latéraux et

d’assise de siège de fonctionner correctement, neutraliser le système ou

provoquer le déploiement accidentel des coussins gonflables latéraux et

d’assise de siège, provoquant ainsi des blessures graves, voire mortelles.

●Évitez de faire subir des chocs ou des pressions excessives aux parties

renfermant les composants des coussins gonflables SRS.

En effet, cela pourrait entraîner un mauvais fonctionnement des coussins

gonflables SRS.

●Ne touchez aucun composant du système immédiatement après le

déclenchement (déploiement) des coussins gonflables SRS, car ils sont

alors encore très chauds.

●Ne rien fixer aux portes, à la vitre de

pare-brise, aux vitres latérales, aux

montants avant et arrière, au rail latéral

de toit et à la poignée de maintien.

●Ne pas attacher à la clé des objets

lourds, pointus ou très durs, comme

d’autres clés par exemple. Ces objets

risquent d’entraver le déploiement du

coussin gonflable SRS de genoux con-

ducteur ou d’être projetés en direction

du siège conducteur par la force de

déploiement, constituant ainsi un dan-

ger potentiel.

AVERTISSEMENT

■Précautions avec les coussins gonflables SRS

●Si vous avez des difficultés à respirer après le déploiement des coussins

gonflables SRS, ouvrez une porte ou une vitre pour faire entrer de l’air

frais, ou bien descendez du véhicule si cela ne présente pas de danger.

Retirez tout résidu dès que possible afin d’éviter d’éventuelles irritations

de la peau.

●Si les parties renfermant les coussins gonflables SRS, telles que la garni-

ture centrale du volant de direction et les garnitures de montants avant et

arrière, apparaissent abîmées ou craquelées, faites-les remplacer par

votre concessionnaire Toyota.

●Ne rien poser sur le siège du passager avant, comme un coussin par

exemple. Cela a pour conséquence de répartir le poids du passager sur

toute la surface du siège, ce qui empêche le capteur de détecter normale-

ment le poids du passager. En conséquence, les coussins gonflables SRS

frontaux du passager avant peuvent ne pas se déployer en cas de colli-

sion.

■Modification et élimination en fin de vie des éléments du système de

coussins gonflables SRS

Consultez impérativement votre concessionnaire Toyota si vous avez

besoin d’intervenir sur votre véhicule ou de procéder à l’une des modifica-

tions suivantes. Les coussins gonflables SRS peuvent ne pas fonctionner

correctement ou se déployer (se gonfler) accidentellement, provoquant

ainsi des blessures graves, voire mortelles.

●Installation, dépose, démontage et réparations des coussins gonflables

SRS

●Réparations, modifications, démontage ou remplacement du volant, du

tableau de bord, de la planche de bord, des sièges ou de leur garnissage,

des montants avant, latéraux et arrière ou des rails latéraux de toit

●Réparation ou modification des ailes avant, du bouclier avant, ou des

flancs de l’habitacle

●Installation d’une protection de calandre (pare-buffle ou pare-kangourou,

etc.), d’un chasse-neige, d’un treuil

●Modification des suspensions du véhicule

●Installation d’appareils électroniques, tels qu’un émetteur/récepteur radio

ou lecteur de CD

●Aménagements apportés au véhicule pour une personne atteinte d’un

handicap physique.
