When driving
YARIS_F (including HV)_WE_52C79E
Engine speed while driving (vehicles with a hybrid transmission and a
Multidrive)
In the following conditions, the engine speed may become high while driving.
This is due to automatic up-shifting control or down-shifting implementation
to meet driving conditions. It does not indicate sudden acceleration.
The vehicle is judged to be driving uphill or downhill
When the accelerator pedal is released
Breaking in your new Toyota
To extend the life of the vehicle, observing the following precautions is rec-
ommended:
Except hybrid vehicle
For the first 300 km (186 miles):
Avoid sudden stops.
For the first 800 km (500 miles):
Do not tow a trailer.
For the first 1000 km (621 miles):
• Do not drive at extremely high speeds.
• Avoid sudden acceleration.
• Do not drive continuously in low gears.
• Do not drive at a constant speed for extended periods.
Hybrid vehicle
For the first 300 km (186 miles):
Avoid sudden stops.
For the first 1600 km (994 miles):
• Do not drive at extremely high speeds.
• Avoid sudden acceleration.
• Do not drive at a constant speed for extended periods.

210 2-1. Driving procedures
YARIS_F (including HV)_WE_52C79E
Idling time before stopping the engine (diesel engine)
To prevent damage to the turbocharger, allow the engine to idle immediately
after high-speed driving or driving up a hill.
Eco-friendly driving (vehicles with a Multidrive)
Driving conditionIdling time
Normal city driving Not necessary
High-speed driv-
ingConstant speed of approx.
80 km/h (50 mph)Approximately 20
seconds
Constant speed of approx.
100 km/h (63 mph)Approximately 1 minute
Steep hill driving or continuous driving at 100
km/h (63 mph) or more (race track driving etc.)Approximately 2
minutes
During Eco-friendly acceleration opera-
tion (Eco driving), Eco Driving Indicator
Light will turn on. When the accelerator
pedal is depressed excessively, and
when the vehicle is stopped, the light
turns off.
Eco Driving Indicator Light will not oper-
ate in the following conditions:
The shift lever is in anything other than
D.
The driving mode is set to sport mode.
The paddle shift switch is operated
while the shift lever in D.
The vehicle speed is approximately 130
km/h (80 mph) or higher.
Eco Driving Indicator Light can be acti-
vated or deactivated. (P. 291)

When driving
YARIS_F (including HV)_WE_52C79E
Operating your vehicle in a foreign country
Comply with the relevant vehicle registration laws and confirm the availability
of the correct fuel. (P. 660)
For efficient use (Hybrid vehicle)
Shift the shift lever to D when driving.
In the N position, the gasoline engine operates but electricity cannot be
generated. The hybrid battery (traction battery) will discharge, requiring
unnecessary engine power to recharge.
Drive your vehicle smoothly.
Avoid abrupt acceleration and deceleration. Gradual acceleration and
deceleration will make more effective use of the electric motor (traction
motor) without having to use gasoline engine power.
Avoid repeated acceleration.
Repeated acceleration consumes hybrid battery (traction battery) power,
resulting in poor acceleration. Battery power can be restored by driving
with the accelerator pedal slightly released.
Shift the shift lever to P when parking.
In the N position, the hybrid battery (traction battery) does not recharge.
Leaving the shift lever in the N position for an extended period of time
may discharge the hybrid battery. The vehicle cannot run if the hybrid
battery is discharged.

212 2-1. Driving procedures
YARIS_F (including HV)_WE_52C79E
CAUTION
When starting the vehicle
On vehicles with a hybrid transmission, always keep your foot on the brake
pedal while stopped with the hybrid system operating. This prevents the
vehicle from creeping.
On vehicles with a Multidrive, always keep your foot on the brake pedal
while stopped with the engine running. This prevents the vehicle from creep-
ing.
On vehicles with a multi-mode manual transmission, always keep your foot
on the brake pedal while stopped with the engine running. This prevents the
vehicle from moving unexpectedly.
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
that could result in death or serious injury.
• When backing up, you may twist your body around, leading to a diffi-
culty 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 acceler-
ator 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.
On hybrid vehicles, the driver should pay extra attention to pedestrians
when the vehicle is powered only by the electric motor (traction motor).
Because there is no engine noise, the pedestrians may misjudge the vehi-
cle’s movement.

When driving
YARIS_F (including HV)_WE_52C79E
CAUTION
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.
On vehicles with a hybrid 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 result in an accident or damage to the vehicle.
On vehicles with a Multidrive or a multi-mode manual 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.
If the smell of exhaust is noticed inside the vehicle, open the windows and
check that the back door is closed. Large amounts of exhaust in the vehi-
cle can cause driver drowsiness and an accident, resulting in death or a
serious health hazard. Have the vehicle inspected immediately by any
authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and
equipped professional immediately.
On vehicles with a hybrid transmission or a Multidrive, 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 D (vehicles with a hybrid transmission or a
Multidrive), E (vehicles with a multi-mode manual transmission) or 1 (vehi-
cles with a manual transmission) while the vehicle is moving backward.
Doing so can damage the transmission and may result in a loss of vehicle
control.
