The hybrid system may not start on the first attempt after the 12-volt bat-
tery has recharged but will start normally after the second attempt. This is
not a malfunction.
Vehicles with an electronic key: The “POWER” switch mode is memo-
rized by the vehicle. When the 12-volt battery is reconnected, the system
will return to the mode it was in before the 12-volt battery was dis-
charged. Before disconnecting the 12-volt battery, turn the “POWER”
switch off.
If the “POWER” switch was in ACCESSORY or ON mode before the 12-
volt battery was discharged, the audio system and/or air conditioning
system may operate when the 12-volt battery is reconnected.
Charging the 12-volt battery
The electricity stored in the 12-volt battery will discharge gradually even
when the vehicle is not in use, due to natural discharge and the draining
effects of certain electrical appliances. If the vehicle is left for a long time, the
12-volt battery may discharge, and the hybrid system may be unable to start.
(The 12-volt battery recharges automatically while the hybrid system is oper-
ating.)
CAUTION
Avoiding 12-volt battery fires or explosions
Observe the following precautions to prevent accidentally igniting the flam-
mable gas that may be emitted from the 12-volt battery:
Make sure each jumper cable is connected to the correct terminal and that
it is not unintentionally in contact with anything other than the intended ter-
minal.
Do not allow the other end of the jumper cable connected to the “+” termi-
nal to come into contact with any other parts or metal surfaces in the area,
such as brackets or unpainted metal.
Do not allow the + and - clamps of the jumper cables to come into contact
with each other.
Do not smoke, use matches, cigarette lighters or allow open flame near
the 12-volt battery.

ing system, and then stop the engine.
If you see steam:
Carefully lift the hood after the steam subsides.
If you do not see steam:
Carefully lift the hood.
After the engine has cooled down sufficiently, inspect the
hoses and radiator core (radiator) for any leaks.

immediately contact any autho-
rized Toyota dealer or repairer, or
another duly qualified and
equipped professional.

649 5-2. Steps to take in an emergency
When trouble arises
YARIS_F (including HV)_WE_52E26EStart the hybrid system and check for the hybrid system over-
heat warning light.
If the warning light does not go off:
Stop the hybrid system and contact any authorized Toyota
dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped
professional.
If the warning light goes off:
Have the vehicle inspected at the nearest authorized Toy-
ota dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and
equipped professional.
CAUTION
To prevent an accident or injury when inspecting under the hood of
your vehicle
If steam is seen coming from under the hood, do not open the hood until
the steam has subsided. The engine compartment may be very hot, caus-
ing serious injuries such as burns.
Check that the “READY” indicator is off.
On hybrid vehicles, the gasoline engine may automatically start, or the
cooling fan may suddenly operate even if the gasoline engine stops. Do
not touch or approach rotating parts such as the fan, which may lead to fin-
gers or clothing (especially a tie, a scarf or a muffler) getting caught,
resulting in serious injury.
Do not loosen the coolant reservoir cap while the hybrid system and radia-
tor are hot.
Serious injuries, such as burns, may result from hot coolant and steam
released under pressure.

NOTICE
When restarting the engine
Do not crank the engine before refueling and operating the priming pump.
This may damage the engine and fuel system.
Vehicles without a smart entry & start system: Do not crank the engine for
more than 30 seconds at a time. This may overheat the starter and wiring
system.
Start the engine. (P. 222, 226)
If the engine does not start after the above steps have been per-
formed, wait for 10 seconds and then try steps 3 and 5 again. If
the engine still does not start, contact any authorized Toyota
dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped profes-
sional.
After starting the engine, depress the accelerator pedal lightly until

Fuel tank opening for unleaded gasoline (gasoline engine)
To help prevent incorrect fueling, your vehicle has a fuel tank opening that
only accommodates the special nozzle on unleaded fuel pumps.
If you plan to drive in foreign countries (diesel engine)
Low sulfur diesel fuel may not be available, so please check the availability
with your distributor.
If your engine knocks
Consult any authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly quali-
fied and equipped professional.
You may occasionally notice light knocking for a short time while acceler-
ating or driving uphill. This is normal and there is no need for concern.
NOTICE
Notice on fuel quality (gasoline engine)
Do not use improper fuels. If improper fuels are used, the engine will be
damaged.
Do not use leaded gasoline.
Leaded gasoline will cause the three-way catalytic converter to lose its
effectiveness and the emission control system to function improperly.
EU area: Bioethanol fuel sold under names such as “E50” or “E85” and
fuel containing a large amount of ethanol should not be used. The use of
these fuels will damage the vehicle’s fuel system. In case of any doubt,
ask any authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and
equipped professional.
Except EU area: Bioethanol fuel sold under names such as “E50” or “E85”
and fuel containing a large amount of ethanol should not be used. Your
vehicle can use gasoline mixed with 10% max ethanol. The use of fuel
with more than 10% ethanol content (E10) will damage the vehicle’s fuel
system. You must ensure that refueling is carried out only from a source
where fuel specification and quality can be guaranteed. In case of any
doubt, ask any authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly quali-
fied and equipped professional.
