2-3. Fuel and Emission
Fuel-Filler Lid and Cap
WARNING
■When removing the fuel-filler cap, lo osen the cap slightly and wait for
any hissing to stop, then remove it
Fuel spray is dangerous. Fuel can burn skin and eyes and cause illness if
ingested. Fuel spray is released when there is pressure in the fuel tank and
the fuel-filler cap is removed too quickly.
■ Before refueling, stop the engine, and always keep sparks and flames
away from the filler neck
Fuel vapor is dangerous. It could be ignited by sparks or flames causing
serious burns and injuries.
Additionally, use of the incorrect fuel-filler cap or not using a fuel-filler cap
may result in a fuel leak, which could result in serious burns or death in an
accident.
■ Do not continue refueling after the fuel pump nozzle shuts off automat-
ically
Continuing to add fuel after the fuel pump nozzle has shut off automatically
is dangerous because overfilling the fuel tank may cause fuel overflow or
leakage. Fuel overflow and leakage could damage the vehicle and if the fuel
ignites it could cause a fire and explosion resulting in serious injury or
death.
NOTICE
Always use only a genuine Toyota fuel-filler cap or an approved equivalent,
available at your Toyota dealer. The wrong cap can result in a serious mal-
function of the fuel and emission control systems. It may also cause the
check engine light in the combination meter to illuminate.

NOTICE
If the check fuel cap warning light illuminates, the fuel-filler cap may not be
properly installed. If the warning light illuminates, park your vehicle safely off
the right-of-way, remove the fuel-filler cap and reinstall it correctly. After the
cap has been correctly installed, the fuel cap warning light may continue to
illuminate until a number of driving cycles have been completed. A drive
cycle consists of starting the engine (after four or more hours with the
engine off) and driving the vehicle on city and highway roads.
Continuing to drive with the check fuel cap warning light illuminated could
cause the check engine light to illuminate as well.

2-7. Security System
■Arming
The system is armed when the
ignition is switched from ON to
off.
The security indicator light in
the combination meter flashes
every 2 seconds until the sys-
tem is disarmed.
■Disarming
The system is disarmed when the ignition is switched ON with the
correct programmed key. The security indicator light illuminates for
about 3 seconds and then turns off. If the engine does not start with
the correct key, and the security indicator light remains illuminated
or flashing, try the following:
Make sure the key is within the operational range for signal trans-
mission. Switch the ignition off, and then restart the engine. If the
engine does not start after 3 or more tries, contact your Toyota
dealer.
●The engine may not start and security indicator light may illuminate or flash
if the key is placed in an area where it is difficult for the system to detect the
signal, such as on the dashboard or in the glove compartment. Move the
key to a location within the signal range, switch the ignition off, and then
restart the engine.
● Signals from a TV or radio station, or from a transceiver or mobile telephone
could interfere with your immobilizer system. If you are using the proper key
and the engine fails to start, check the security indicator light.
● If the security indicator light flashes continuously while you are driving, do
not shut off the engine. Go to your Toyota dealer and have it checked. If the
engine is shut off while the indicator li ght is flashing, you will not be able to
restart it.
● Because the electronic codes are reset when the immobilizer system is
repaired, the keys are needed. Make sure to bring all the keys to your
Toyota dealer so that they can be programmed.

2-8. Driving Tips
2
Before Driving
Winter Driving
Carry emergency gear, including tire chains, window scraper, flares, a
small shovel, jumper cables, and a small bag of sand or salt.
Ask your Toyota dealer to check the following:
●Have the proper ratio of antifreeze in the radiator.
Refer to Engine Coolant on P. 431.
● Inspect the battery and its cables. Cold reduces battery capacity.
● Use an engine oil appropriate for the lowest ambient temperatures
that the vehicle will be driven in ( →P. 429).
● Inspect the ignition system for damage and loose connections.
● Use washer fluid made with antifreeze but do not use engine cool-
ant antifreeze for washer fluid ( →P. 435).
●Do not use the parking brake in freezing weather as it may freeze. Instead,
shift to 1 or R with a manual transaxle and to P with an automatic transaxle.
Block the rear wheels.
● Remove snow before driving. Snow left on the windshield is dangerous as it
could obstruct vision.
● Do not apply excessive force to a window scraper when removing ice or fro-
zen snow on the mirror glass and windshield.
● Never use warm or hot water for removing snow or ice from windows and
mirrors as it could result in the glass cracking.
● Drive slowly. Braking performance can be adversely affected if snow or ice
adheres to the brake components. If this situation occurs, drive the vehicle
slowly, releasing the accelerator pedal and lightly applying the brakes sev-
eral times until the brake performance returns to normal.

4-1. Climate Control System
Operating Tips
●Operate the climate control system with the engine running.
● To prevent the battery from being discharged, do not leave the fan
control dial on for a long period of time with the ignition switched
ON when the engine is not running.
● Clear all obstructions such as leaves, snow and ice from the hood
and the air inlet in the cowl grille to improve the system efficiency.
● Use the climate control system to defog the windows and dehumid-
ify the air.
● The recirculate mode should be used when driving through tunnels
or while in a traffic jam, or when you would like to shut off outside
air for quick cooling of the interior.
● Use the outside air position for ventilation or windshield defrosting.
● If the vehicle has been parked in direct sunlight during hot weather,
open the windows to let warm air escape, then run the climate con-
trol system.
● Run the air conditioner about 10 minutes at least once a month to
keep internal parts lubricated.
● Have the air conditioner
checked before the weather
gets hot. Lack of refrigerant
may make the air conditioner
less efficient.
The refrigerant specifications
are indicated on a label
attached to the inside of the
engine compartment. Check
the label before refilling the
refrigerant. If the wrong type of
refrigerant is used, it could
result in a serious malfunction
of the air conditioner.
For details, consult your Toyota
dealer.

6-5. Overheating
Overheating
If the high engine coolant temperature warning light illuminates:
Drive safely to the side of the road and park off the right-of-way.
Put a vehicle with an automatic transaxle in park (P), a manual
transaxle in neutral.
Apply the parking brake.
Turn off the air conditioner.
Check whether coolant or steam is escaping from the engine com-
partment.
XIf steam is coming from the engine compartment:
Do not go near the front of the vehicle. Stop the engine.
Wait until the steam dissipates, then open the hood and start the
engine.
XIf neither coolant nor steam is escaping:
Open the hood and idle the engine until it cools.
Make sure the cooling fan is operating, then turn off the engine after
the temperature has decreased.
When cool, check the coolant level.
If it is low, look for coolant leaks from the radiator and hoses.
■If you find a leak or other damage, or if coolant is still leaking:
Stop the engine and call your Toyota dealer.Cooling fan
Cooling system cap
Coolant reservoir
If the high engine coolant temperature warning light illuminates,
the vehicle loses power, or you hear a loud knocking or pinging
noise, the engine is probably too hot.

5086-7. Warning/Indicator Lights and Warning Sounds
YARIS_SEDAN_OM_OM99M18z_(U)
Electronic Brake Force Distribution System WarningIf the electronic brake force distribution control unit deter-
mines that some components are operating incorrectly,
the control unit may illuminate the brake system warning
light and the ABS warning light simultaneously. The prob-
lem is likely to be the electronic brake force distribution
system.
Charging System Warning Light
If the warning light illuminates while driving, it indicates a
malfunction of the alternator or of the charging system.
Drive to the side of the road and park off the right-of-way.
Consult your Toyota dealer.
Do not continue driving when the charging system warning
light is illuminated because the engine could stop unex-
pectedly.
Engine Oil Warning LightThis warning light indicates low engine oil pressure.
Do not run the engine if the oil pressure is low. Otherwise,
it could result in extensive engine damage.
If the light illuminates or the warning indication is dis-
played while driving:
Drive to the side of the road and park off the right-of-
way on level ground.
Turn off the engine and wait 5 minutes for the oil to
drain back into the oil pan.
Inspect the engine oil level P. 430. If it’s low, add the
appropriate amount of engine oil while being careful
not to overfill.
Do not run the engine if the oil level is low. Otherwise, it
could result in extensive engine damage. Start the engine and check the warning light.
If the light remains illuminated even though the oil level is
normal or after adding oil, stop the engine immediately
and have your vehicle towed to your Toyota dealer.
