Before recharging
When recharging, the battery produces hydrogen gas which is flammable
and explosive. Therefore, observe the following before recharging:
If recharging with the battery installed on the vehicle, be sure to discon-
nect the ground cable.
Make sure the power switch on the charger is off when connecting and
disconnecting the charger cables to the battery.
After recharging/reconnecting the battery (vehicles with a smart entry
& start system)
Unlocking the doors using the smart entry & start system may not be
possible immediately after reconnecting the battery. If this happens, use
the wireless remote control or the mechanical key to lock/unlock the
doors.
Start the engine with the “ENGINE START STOP” switch in ACCES-
SORY mode. The engine may not start with the “ENGINE START STOP”
switch turned off. However, the engine will operate normally from the sec-
ond attempt.
The “ENGINE START STOP” switch mode is recorded by the vehicle. If
the battery is reconnected, the vehicle will return the “ENGINE START
STOP” switch mode to the status it was in before the battery was discon-
nected. Make sure to turn off the engine before disconnect the battery.
Take extra care when connecting the battery if the “ENGINE START
STOP” switch mode prior to discharge is unknown.
If the engine will not start even after multiple attempts, contact any autho-
rized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped pro-
fessional.

Maintenance and care
YARIS_F(including HV)_WE_52E26E
Before recharging
When recharging, the 12-volt battery produces hydrogen gas which is flam-
mable and explosive. Therefore, observe the following precautions before
recharging:
If recharging with the 12-volt battery installed on the vehicle, be sure to
disconnect the ground cable.
Make sure the power switch on the charger is off when connecting and
disconnecting the charger cables to the 12-volt battery.
When disconnecting the 12-volt battery terminals
Always disconnect the negative (-) terminal first.
After recharging/reconnecting the 12-volt battery
Unlocking the doors using the smart entry & start system may not be
possible immediately after reconnecting the 12-volt battery. If this hap-
pens, use the wireless remote control or the mechanical key to lock/
unlock the doors.
Vehicles with an electronic key: Start the hybrid system with the
“POWER” switch in ACCESSORY mode. The hybrid system may not
start with the “POWER” switch turned off. However, the hybrid system will
operate normally from the second attempt.
Vehicles with an electronic key: The “POWER” switch mode is recorded
by the vehicle. If the 12-volt battery is reconnected, the vehicle will return
the “POWER” switch mode to the status it was in before the 12-volt bat-
tery was disconnected. Make sure to turn off the power before discon-
nect the 12-volt battery. Take extra care when connecting the 12-volt
battery if the “POWER” switch mode prior to discharge is unknown.
If the system will not start even after multiple attempts, contact any autho-
rized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped pro-
fessional.

CAUTION
When inspecting or replacing tires
Observe the following precautions to prevent accidents.
Failure to do so may cause damage to parts of the drive train as well as dan-
gerous handling characteristics, which may lead to an accident resulting in
death or serious injury.
Do not mix tires of different makes, models or tread patterns.
Also, do not mix tires of remarkably different treadwear.
Do not use tire sizes other than those recommended by Toyota.
Do not mix differently constructed tires (radial, bias-belted or bias-ply
tires).
Do not mix summer, all season and snow tires.
Do not use tires that have been used on another vehicle.
Do not use tires if you do not know how they were used previously.
Vehicles with a compact spare tire: Do not tow if your vehicle has a com-
pact spare tire installed.

Passenger detection sensor and passenger seat belt reminder
If luggage is placed on a passenger seat, the passenger detection sensor
may cause the warning light to flash even if a passenger is not sitting in
the seat.
If a cushion is placed on the seat, the sensor may not detect a passen-
ger, and the warning light may not operate properly.
Electric power steering warning light (warning buzzer)
Except hybrid vehicle: When the battery charge becomes insufficient or the
voltage temporarily drops, the electric power steering system warning light
may come on and the warning buzzer may sound.
Hybrid vehicle: When the 12-volt battery charge becomes insufficient or the
voltage temporarily drops, the electric power steering system warning light
may come on and the warning buzzer may sound.
If the malfunction indicator lamp comes on while driving
For some models, the malfunction indicator lamp will come on if the fuel tank
becomes completely empty. If the fuel tank is empty, refuel the vehicle
immediately. The malfunction indicator lamp will go off after several trips.
If the malfunction indicator lamp does not go off, contact any authorized
Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped profes-
sional as soon as possible.
If the engine oil change reminder light flashes (diesel engine with a
DPF system)
Repeated short trips and/or low-speed driving may cause the oil to degrade
sooner than usual, regardless of the actual distance driven. If this happens,
the engine oil change reminder light will flash.
Engine oil change reminder light comes on (diesel engine only)
Vehicles without a DPF system:
Replace the engine oil and oil filter when the engine oil change reminder
light does not come on even if you have driven over 40000 km (25000 miles)
after the engine oil was changed.
There is a possibility that the engine oil change reminder light has been illu-
minated when you have driven less than 40000 km (25000 miles) based on
a usage or driving condition.
