2-8. Driving Tips

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.

YARIS_SEDAN_OM_OM99M18z_(U)
Only use SAE 0W-20 oil “Certi-
fied For Gasoline Engines” by
the American Petroleum Insti-
tute (API).
Oil with this trademark symbol
conforms to the current engine
and emission system protection
standards and fuel economy
requirements of the Interna-
tional Lubricant Standardiza-
tion and Approval Committee
(ILSAC), comprised of U.S. and
Japanese automobile manufac-
turers.
Be sure the vehicle is on a level surface.
Warm up the engine to normal operating temperature.
Turn it off and wait at least 5 minutes for the oil to return to the oil
pan.
Pull out the dipstick, wipe it
clean, and reinsert it fully.Full
OK
Low
Pull it out again and examine the level. The level is normal if it is
between Low and Full.
If it is near or below Low, add enough oil to bring the level to Full.
Make sure the O-ring on the dipstick is positioned properly before
reinserting the dipstick.
Reinsert the dipstick fully.

Maintenance and Care
●When cleaning the plastic lenses of the lights, do not use gasoline,
kerosene, rectified spirit, paint, thinner, highly acidic detergents, or
strongly alkaline detergents. Otherwise, these chemical agents can
discolor or damage the surfaces resulting in a significant loss in
functionality. If plastic parts become inadvertently exposed to any of
these chemical agents, flush with water immediately.
● If plastic parts such as the bumpers become inadvertently exposed
to chemical agents or fluids such as gasoline, oil, engine coolant, or
battery fluid, it could cause discoloration, staining, or paint peeling.
Wipe off any such chemical agents or fluids using a soft cloth imme-
diately.
● High water temperature and high water pressure car washers are
available depending on the type of high pressure car washer
device. If the car washer nozzle is put too close to the vehicle or
aimed at one area for an extended period of time, it could deform
plastic parts or damage the paint.
● Do not use wax containing compounds (polish). Otherwise, it could
result in paint damage.
● In addition, do not use an electrical or air tool to apply wax. Other-
wise, the frictional heat generated could result in deformation of
plastic parts or paint damage.
NOTICE
Do not use any detergent other than mild detergent. Before using any deter-
gent, verify the ingredients.
Otherwise, the product could discolor or stain the aluminum wheels.

4785-4. Appearance Care
YARIS_SEDAN_OM_OM99M18z_(U)
■Cleaning the Upholstery and Interior Trim
●Because genuine leather is a natural material, its surface is not uniform and
it may have natural scars, scratches, and wrinkles.
● To maintain the quality for as long as possible, periodical maintenance,
about twice a year, is recommended.
● Sand and dust on the seat surface may damage the overcoat of the genuine
leather surfaces and accelerate wear.
● Greasy soiling on genuine leather may cause molding and stains.
● Rubbing hard with a stiff brush or cloth may cause damage.
● Do not wipe the leather using alcohol, chlorine bleach, or organic solvents
such as thinner, benzene, or gasoline. Otherwise, it may cause discoloration
or stains.
● If the seats get wet, promptly remove moisture with a dry cloth. Remaining
moisture on the surface may cause deterioration such as hardening and
shrinkage.
● Exposure to direct sunlight for long periods may cause deterioration and
shrinkage. When parking the car under direct sunlight for long periods,
shade the interior using sunshades.
● Do not leave vinyl products on the seats for long periods as they may affect
the leather quality and coloring. If the cabin temperature becomes hot, the
vinyl may deteriorate and adhere to the genuine leather.
● Do not wipe leather parts using alcohol, chlorine bleach, or organic solvents
such as thinner, benzene, or gasoline. Otherwise, it may cause discoloration
or stains.
• Scratches or nicks on the panels and metallic trim resulting from the use
of a hard brush or cloth may not be repairable. Be particularly careful
when cleaning high lustre panels and metallic trim as they can be easily
scratched.
NOTICE
Use only recommended cleaners and procedures. Others may affect
appearance and fire-resistance.
