Before Driving
WARNING
■Driving with tire chains
●Chains may affect handling.
● Do not go faster than 30 mph (50 km/h) or the chain manufacturer’s rec-
ommended limit, whichever is lower.
● Drive carefully and avoid bumps, holes, and sharp turns.
● Avoid locked-wheel braking.
NOTICE
● Do not use chains on a temporary spare tire; it may result in damage to the
vehicle and to the tire.
● Do not use chains on roads that are free of snow or ice. The tires and
chains could be damaged.
● Chains may scratch or chip aluminum wheels.

3-6. ABS/TCS/DSC
Dynamic Stability Control (DSC)
DSC operation is possible at speeds greater than 12 mph (20 km/h).
The warning light turns on when the system has a malfunction.
Refer to Warning Lights on P. 157.
The Dynamic Stability Control (DSC) automatically controls
braking and engine torque in conjunction with systems such as
ABS and TCS to help control side slip when driving on slippery
surfaces, or during sudden or evasive maneuvering, enhancing
vehicle safety.
Refer to ABS (→P. 193) and TCS ( →P. 194).
WARNING
■Do not rely on the Dynamic Stability Control as a substitute for safe
driving
The Dynamic Stability Control (DSC) cannot compensate for unsafe and
reckless driving, excessive speed, tailgating (following another vehicle too
closely), and hydroplaning (reduced tire friction and road contact because
of water on the road surface). You can still have an accident.
NOTICE
●The DSC may not operate correctly unless the following are observed:
• Use tires of the correct size specified for your Toyota on all four wheels.
• Use tires of the same manufacturer, brand and tread pattern on all four
wheels.
• Do not mix worn tires.
● The DSC may not operate correctly when tire chains are used or a tempo-
rary spare tire is installed because the tire diameter changes.

3-10. Active Safety System
WARNING
■Do not rely on the Smart City Brake Support System (SCBS) as a sub-
stitute for safer driving
The Smart City Brake Support (SCBS) system cannot compensate for
unsafe and reckless driving, excessive speed, tailgating (following another
vehicle too closely), and driving on slippery roads such as wet, snowy, and
icy roads (reduced tire friction and road contact because of water on the
road surface). You can still have an accident.
■ Do not rely completely on the Smart City Brake Support (SCBS) system
●The Smart City Brake Support (SCBS) system is only designed to reduce
damage in the event of a collision. Over reliance on the system leading to
the accelerator pedal or brake pedal being mistakenly operated could
result in an accident.
● The Smart City Brake Support (SCBS) is a system which operates in
response to a vehicle ahead. The system may not be able to detect or
react to two-wheeled vehicles or pedestrians.
● The laser sensor for the Smart Ci ty Brake Support (SCBS) system is
installed near the rearview mirror. To assure the correct operation of the
Smart City Brake Support (SCBS), heed the following cautions.
• Do not apply stickers to the surface of the windshield near the laser sensor (including transparent stickers). Otherwise, the laser sensor
may not be able to detect vehicles ahead which could result in an acci-
dent.
• Do not apply coating agent to the windshield. Otherwise, the laser sen- sor may not be able to detect vehicles or obstructions in front which
could result in an accident.
• Do not disassemble the laser sensor.
• If cracks or damage caused by flying gravel or debris is visible near the laser sensor, stop using the Smart City Brake Support (SCBS)
system immediately and have your vehicle inspected by your Toyota
dealer. If the vehicle continues to be driven with cracks or scratch
marks left on the windshield near the laser sensor, the system may
operate unnecessarily and cause an unexpected accident.
Refer to Stopping The Smart City Brake Support (SCBS) System
Operation on P. 210.
• When replacing the windshield wipers or windshield, consult your Toyota dealer.
● The laser sensor includes a functi on for detecting a soiled windshield and
informing the driver, however, depending on the conditions, it may not
detect plastic shopping bags, ice or snow on the windshield. In such
cases, the system cannot accurately determine a vehicle ahead and may
not be able to operate normally. Always drive carefully and pay attention to
the road ahead.

3-12. Tire Pressure Monitoring System
NOTICE
●Each tire, including the spare (if provided), should be checked monthly
when cold and inflated to the inflation pressure recommended by the
vehicle manufacturer on the vehicle placard or tire inflation pressure
label. (If your vehicle has tires of a different size than the size indicated
on the vehicle placard or tire inflation pressure label, you should deter-
mine the proper tire inflation pressure for those tires.)
As an added safety feature, your vehicle has been equipped with a tire
pressure monitoring system (TPMS) that illuminates a low tire pres-
sure telltale when one or more of your tires is significantly under-
inflated. Accordingly, when the low tire pressure telltale illuminates,
you should stop and check your tires as soon as possible, and inflate
them to the proper pressure. Driving on a significantly under-inflated
tire causes the tire to overheat and can lead to tire failure. Under-infla-
tion also reduces fuel efficiency and tire tread life, and may affect the
vehicle’s handling and stopping ability.
Please note that the TPMS is not a substitute for proper tire mainte-
nance, and it is the driver’s responsibility to maintain correct tire pres-
sure, even if under-inflation has not reached the level to trigger
illumination of the TPMS low tire pressure telltale.
Your vehicle has also been equipped with a TPMS malfunction indica-
tor to indicate when the system is not operating properly.
The TPMS malfunction indicator is combined with the low tire pressure
telltale. When the system detects a malfunction, the telltale will flash
for approximately one minute and then remain continuously illumi-
nated. This sequence will continue upon subsequent vehicle start-ups
as long as the malfunction exists. When the malfunction indicator is
illuminated, the system may not be able to detect or signal low tire
pressure as intended. TPMS malfunctions may occur for a variety of
reasons, including the installation of replacement or alternate tires or
wheels on the vehicle that prevent the TPMS from functioning properly.
Always check the TPMS malfunction telltale after replacing one or
more tires or wheels on your vehicle to ensure that the replacement or
alternate tires and wheels allow the TPMS to continue to function prop-
erly.
●To avoid false readings, the system samples for a little while before
indicating a problem. As a result it will not instantaneously register a
rapid tire deflation or blow out.

3-13. Rear View Monitor
Rear View Monitor∗
●If water, snow, or mud is stuck on the camera lens, wipe it off using a soft
cloth. If it cannot be wiped off, use a mild detergent.
● If the camera temperature changes rapidly (Hot to cold, cold to hot), the rear
view monitor may not operate correctly.
● When replacing the tires, consult your Toyota dealer. Replacing the tires
could result in deviation of the guide lines which appear on the display.
● If the vehicle’s front, side, or rear has been involved in a collision, the align-
ment of the rear view parking camera (location, installation angle) may have
deviated. Always consult your Toyota dealer to have the vehicle inspected.
● If “No Video Signal Available” is indica ted in the display, there could be a
problem with the camera. Have your vehicle inspected at your Toyota
dealer.
∗: If equipped
The rear view monitor provides visual images of the rear of the
vehicle when reversing.
WARNING
■ Always drive carefully confirming the safety of the rear and the sur-
rounding conditions by looking directly with your eyes
Reversing the vehicle by only looking at the screen is dangerous as it may
cause an accident or a collision with an object. The rear view monitor is only
a visual assist device when reversing the vehicle. The images on the screen
may be different from the actual conditions.
■ Do not use the rear view monitor under the following conditions
Using the rear view monitor under the following conditions is dangerous and
could result in injury or vehicle damage or both.
●Icy or snow-covered roads.
● Tire chains or a temporary spare tire is installed.
● The trunk lid is not fully closed.
● The vehicle is on a road incline.
■ Rear view monitor display precautions in cold temperatures
When the display is cold, images may course across the monitor or the
screen and may be dimmer than usual, which could cause difficulty in con-
firming the surrounding conditions of the vehicle. Always drive carefully con-
firming the safety of the rear and the surrounding conditions by looking
directly with your eyes.

5-3. Owner Maintenance
Tires
Inspect all tire pressures monthly (including the spare) when the tires
are cold. Maintain recommended pressures for the best ride, han-
dling, and minimum tire wear.
Refer to the specification charts
(→P. 5 7 0).
Vehicles with tire pressure monitoring system:
After adjusting the tire pressure, initialization of the tire pressure mon-
itoring system is necessary to make the system operate normally.
Refer to Tire Pressure Monitoring System Initialization on P. 221.
●Always check tire pressure when tires are cold.
●Warm tires normally exceed recommended pressures. Do not release
air from warm tires to adjust the pressure.
●Underinflation can cause reduced fuel economy, uneven and acceler-
ated tire wear, and poor sealing of the tire bead, which will deform the
wheel and cause separation of tire from rim.
●Overinflation can produce a harsh ride, uneven and accelerated tire
wear, and a greater possibility of damage from road hazards.
For reasons of proper performance, safety, and better fuel econ-
omy, always maintain recommended tire inflation pressures and
stay within the recommended load limits and weight distribu-
tion.
WARNING
■Using Different Tire Types
Driving your vehicle with different types of tires is dangerous. It could
cause poor handling and poor braking; leading to loss of control.
Except for the limited use of the temporary spare tire, use only the same
type tires (radial, bias-belted, bias-type) on all four wheels.
■Using Wrong-Sized Tires
Using any other tire size than what is specified for the vehicle ( →P. 570)
is dangerous. It could seriously affect ride, handling, ground clearance,
tire clearance, and speedometer calibration. This could cause you to
have an accident. Use only tires that are the correct size specified for
the vehicle.

Maintenance and Care
Keep your tire pressure at the correct levels. If one frequently needs
inflating, have it inspected.
During rotation, inspect them for
correct balance.
Also, inspect them for uneven wear and damage. Abnormal wear is
usually caused by one or a combination of the following:
●Incorrect tire pressure
● Improper wheel alignment
● Out-of-balance wheel
● Severe braking
After rotation, inflate all tire pressures to specification (
→P. 570) and
inspect the lug nuts for tightness.
Vehicles with tire pressure monitoring system:
After adjusting the tire pressure, initialization of the tire pressure mon-
itoring system is necessary to make the system operate normally.
WARNING
■Always inflate the tires to the correct pressure
Overinflation or underinflation of tires is dangerous. Adverse handling or
unexpected tire failure could result in a serious accident.
Refer to Tires on ( →P. 570).
■Use only a Toyota-genuine tire valve cap
Use of a non-genuine part is dangerous as the correct tire air pressure
cannot be maintained if the tire valve becomes damaged. If the vehicle
is driven under this condition, the tire air pressure will decrease which
could result in a serious accident. Do not use any part for the tire valve
cap that is not a Toyota-genuine part.
Tire Rotation
Forward
Do not include (TEMPORARY
USE ONLY) spare tire in rotation.

4485-3. Owner Maintenance
YARIS_SEDAN_OM_OM99M18z_(U)
Refer to Tire Pressure Monitoring System Initialization on P. 221.
If a tire wears evenly, a wear indi-
cator will appear as a solid band
across the tread.
Replace the tire when this hap-
pens.
You should replace the tire before the band crosses the entire tread.
Vehicles with tire pressure monitoring system:
After adjusting the tire pressure, initialization of the tire pressure mon-
itoring system is necessary to make the system operate normally.
Refer to Tire Pressure Monitoring System Initialization on P. 221.
Tires degrade over time, even when they are not being used on the road.
It is recommended that tires generally be replaced when they are 6 years
or older. Heat caused by hot climates or frequent high loading conditions
can accelerate the aging process. You should replace the spare tire when
you replace the other road tires due to the aging of the spare tire. The
period in which the tire was manufactured (both week and year) is indi-
cated by a 4-digit number.
Refer to Tire Labeling on P. 541.
WARNING
■Rotate tires periodically
Irregular tire wear is dangerous. To equalize tire wear and extend tire
life, Toyota recommends that tire rotation is carried out at the same
interval as tire inspection.
For scheduled maintenance information, please refer to the “Owner’s
Manual Supplement/Scheduled Maintenance Guide”.
NOTICE
Rotate unidirectional tires and radial tires that have an asymmetrical
tread pattern or studs only from front to rear, not from side to side. Tire
performance will be reduced if rotated from side to side.

Maintenance and Care
Inspect the temporary spare tire at least monthly to make sure it is
properly inflated and stored.
The temporary spare tire is easier to handle because of its construc-
tion which is lighter and smaller than a conventional tire. This tire
should be used only for an emergency and only for a short distance.
Use the temporary spare tire only until the conventional tire is
repaired, which should be as soon as possible.
Refer to Tires on P. 570.
●The temporary spare tire condition gradually deteriorates even if it has
not been used.
●Tires degrade over time, even when they are not being used on the
road. It is recommended that tires generally be replaced when they are
6 years or older. Heat caused by hot climates or frequent high loading
conditions can accelerate the aging process. You should replace the
spare tire when you replace the other road tires due to the aging of the
spare tire. The period in which the tire was manufactured (both week
and year) is indicated by a 4-digit number.
Refer to Tire Labeling on P. 541.
WARNING
■Always use tires that are in good condition
Driving with worn tires is dangerous. Reduced braking, steering, and
traction could result in an accident.
■Replace all four tires at the same time
Replacing just one tire is dangerous. It could cause poor handling and
poor braking resulting in loss of vehicle control. Toyota strongly recom-
mends that you replace all four tires at the same time. If you replace
only two tires, the new tires should be installed on the rear of the vehi-
cle.
