If the engine is stopped by the Stop & Start system and the following action is
performed, a buzzer will sound and the Stop & Start indicator will flash. This
indicates that the engine is only stopped by the Stop & Start system, not that
the engine has been turned off completely.
The shift lever is shifted to a position other than N with the clutch pedal
released.
If the Stop & Start cancel indicator continues to flash
The Stop & Start system may be malfunctioning. Contact any authorized
Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped professional.

CAUTION
When the Stop & Start system is operating
Keep the shift lever in N and apply the brake pedal or parking brake for
safety while the engine is stopped due to the Stop & Start system (while
Stop & Start indicator is on).
Unexpected accidents may occur due to the automatic engine start func-
tion.
Do not leave the vehicle while the engine is stopped due to the Stop &
Start system (while Stop & Start indicator is on).
Unexpected accidents may occur due to the automatic engine start func-
tion.
Ensure that the engine is not stopped by the Stop & Start system while the
vehicle is in a poorly ventilated area. The engine may restart due to the
automatic engine start function, causing exhaust gases to collect and
enter the vehicle and resulting in death or a serious health hazard.
NOTICE
To ensure the system operates correctly
If any one of the following situations occurs, the Stop & Start system may
not operate correctly, thus, please have your vehicle checked by any autho-
rized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped pro-
fessional.
While the driver’s seat belt is fastened, the driver’s and front passenger’s

Auris Touring Sports_EE (OM12G98E)
CAUTION
Driving with snow tires
Observe the following precautions to reduce the risk of accidents.
Failure to do so may result in a loss of vehicle control and cause death or
serious injury.
Use tires of the specified size.
Maintain the recommended level of air pressure.
Do not drive at speeds in excess of the speed limit or the speed limit spec-
ified for the snow tires being used.
Use snow tires on all, not just some wheels.
Driving with tire chains
Observe the following precautions to reduce the risk of accidents.
Failure to do so may result in the vehicle being unable to be driven safely,
and may cause death or serious injury.
Do not drive in excess of the speed limit specified for the tire chains being
used, or 50 km/h (30 mph), whichever is lower.
Avoid driving on bumpy road surfaces or over potholes.
Avoid sudden acceleration, abrupt steering, sudden braking and shifting
operations that cause sudden engine braking.
Slow down sufficiently before entering a curve to ensure that vehicle con-
trol is maintained.
NOTICE
Repairing or replacing snow tires (vehicles with a tire pressure warn-
ing system)
Request repairs or replacement of snow tires from Toyota dealers or legiti-
mate tire retailers.
This is because the removal and attachment of snow tires affects the opera-
tion of the tire pressure warning valves and transmitters.
Fitting tire chains (vehicles with a tire pressure warning system)
The tire pressure warning valves and transmitters may not function correctly
when tire chains are fitted.

Maintenance and care
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. 498)
Installing tire pressure warning valves and transmitters
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 valves and transmitter ID
codes registered by any authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or
another duly qualified and equipped professional. (P. 429)
Initializing the tire pressure warning system
The tire pressure warning system must be initialized in the fol-
lowing circumstances:
When rotating front and rear tires which have different tire infla-
tion pressures.
When changing the tire size.
When the tire inflation pressure is changed such as when chang-
ing traveling speed or load weight.
When the tire pressure warning system is initialized, the current tire
inflation pressure is set as the benchmark pressure.
