Operation of each component
YARIS_F_OM_Europe_OM52J20E
■ Notes for the entry function
● Even when the electronic key is within the effective range (detection areas),
the system may not operate properly in the following cases:
• The electronic key is too close to the window or outside door handle, near
the ground, or in a high place w hen the doors are locked or unlocked.
• The electronic key is on the inst rument panel, luggage cover (if equipped)
or floor, or in the door pockets, glove box, accessory box of the instru-
ment panel, or in/near the front cup holder when the engine is started or
engine switch modes are changed.
● Do not leave the electronic key on top of the instrument panel or near the
door pockets when exiting the vehicle. Depending on the radio wave recep-
tion conditions, it may be detected by the antenna outside the cabin and the
door will become lockable from the outside, possibly trapping the electronic
key inside the vehicle.
● As long as the electronic key is within the effective range, the doors may be
locked or unlocked by anyone.
● Even if the electronic key is not inside the vehicle, it may be possible to start
the engine if the electronic key is near the window.
● The doors may unlock if a large amount of water splashes on the door han-
dle, such as in the rain or in a car wash when the electronic key is within the
effective range. (The door will automatically be locked after approximately
30 seconds if the doors are not opened and closed.)
● Gripping the door handle when wearing a glove may not unlock the door.
● If the wireless remote control is used to lock the doors when the electronic
key is near the vehicle, there is a possibility that the door may not be
unlocked by the entry function. (Use the wireless remote control to unlock
the doors.)
● A sudden approach to the effective range or door handle may prevent the
doors from being unlocked. In this case, return the door handle to the origi-
nal position and check that the doors unlock before pulling the door handle
again.
■ Notes for locking the doors
● Touching the door lock sensor while wearing gloves may delay or prevent
lock operation. Remove the gloves and touch the lock sensor again.
● If the door handle becomes wet while the electronic key is within the effec-
tive range, the door may lock and unlock repeatedly. Place the key in a posi-
tion 2 m (6 ft.) or more separate from the vehicle while the vehicle is being
washed. (Take care to ensure that the key is not stolen.)
● If the electronic key is inside the vehicle and a door handle becomes wet
during a car wash, a buzzer will sound outside the vehicle. To turn off the
alarm, lock all the doors.
● The lock sensor may not work properly if it comes into contact with ice,
snow, mud, etc. Clean the lock sensor and attempt to operate it again.

■ Notes for the unlocking function
● A sudden approach to the effective range or door handle may prevent the
doors from being unlocked. In this case, return the door handle to the origi-
nal position and check that the doors unlock before pulling the door handle
again.
● Gripping the door handle when wearing a glove may not unlock the door.
Remove the gloves and touch the sensor on the back of the handle again.
● If the door handle becomes wet while the electronic key is within the effec-
tive range, the door may lock and unlock repeatedly. Place the key in a posi-
tion 2 m (6 ft.) or more separate from the vehicle while the vehicle is being
washed. (Take care to ensure that the key is not stolen.)
● If there is another electronic key in the detection area, it may take slightly
longer to unlock the doors after the door handle is gripped.
■ When the vehicle is not driven for extended periods
● To prevent theft of the vehicle, do not leave the electronic key within 2 m
(6 ft.) of the vehicle.
● The smart entry & start system can be deactivated in advance. (P. 524)
■ To operate the system properly
Make sure to carry the electronic key when operating the system. Do not get
the electronic key too close to the vehicle when operating the system from the
outside of the vehicle.
Depending on the position and holding condition of the electronic key, the key
may not be detected correctly and the system may not operate properly. (The
alarm may go off accidentally, or the door lock prevention function may not
operate.)

WARNING
■Caution regarding interference with electronic devices
● People with implantable cardiac pacemakers, cardiac resynchronization
therapy-pacemakers or implantable cardioverter defibrillators should
maintain a reasonable distance between themselves and the smart entry
& start system antennas. ( P. 127)
The radio waves may affect the operation of such devices. If necessary,
the entry function can be disabled. Ask any authorized Toyota dealer or
repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped professional for details,
such as the frequency of radio waves and timing of the emitted radio
waves. Then, consult your doctor to see if you should disable the entry
function.
● Users of any electrical medical device other than implantable cardiac
pacemakers, cardiac resynchronization therapy-pacemakers or implant-
able cardioverter defibrillators should consult the manufacturer of the
device for information about its operation under the influence of radio
waves.
Radio waves could have unexpected effects on the operation of such
medical devices.
Ask any authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and
equipped professional for details on disabling the entry function.

Operation of each component
YARIS_F_OM_Europe_OM52J20E
■Getting in the vehicle
For easy access to the rear seat, use the seatback lock release
lever. When the seatback lock release lever is used, the seat’s orig-
inal slide position is memorized, so the seat may be returned to that
original position. However, if the seatback angle adjustment lever is
used, the seat will not return to its original position.
Lift the seatback lock release
lever.
The seatback will fold forward,
and the seat’s slide lock will be
released.
Move the seat all the way for-
ward.
■Getting out of the vehicle
Lift the seatback lock release
lever or seatback angle adjust-
ment lever.
The seatback will fold forward,
and the seat’s slide lock will be
released.
Move the seat all the way for-
ward.
Moving front passenger’s seat for rear seat entry (3-door models
only)

1403-3. Adjusting the seats
YARIS_F_OM_Europe_OM52J20E
■After passengers have entered the vehicle (3-door models only)
Slide the seat backward and then lift the seatback. The seat will be set and
locked to its previous position automatically. If the seat cannot be slid back to
the previous position due to the rear passenger or luggage, the seat will be
locked in that position, disabling the seat position memory system.
To recall the previous position, lift the seatback lock release lever after
removing the luggage, or after having the passenger get out or sit properly so
that the seat can be slid back to the previous position. However, if you slide
the seat further backwards than previous position using the seat position
adjustment lever, the memory of previous position will be overwritten.
WARNING
■ When adjusting the seat position
● Take care when adjusting the seat position to ensure that other passen-
gers are not injured by the moving seat.
● Do not put your hands under the seat or near the moving parts to avoid
injury.
Fingers or hands may become jammed in the seat mechanism.
■ Seat adjustment
● Be careful that the seat does not hit passengers or luggage.
● To reduce the risk of sliding under the lap belt during a collision, do not
recline the seat more than necessary.
If the seat is too reclined, the lap belt may slide past the hips and apply
restraint forces directly to the abdomen, or your neck may contact the
shoulder belt, increasing the risk of death or serious injury in the event of
an accident.
Adjustments should not be made while driving as the seat may unexpect-
edly move and cause the driver to lose control of the vehicle.
● After adjusting the seat, make sure that the seat is locked in position.
● Never allow anyone to touch seatback lock release levers while the vehi-
cle is moving.
● If anyone is in the vicinity, make sure they are clear of the seat back path
and let them know that the seat is about to move.
■ After returning the seatback to the upright position
Make sure the seatback is securely locked by pushing it forward and rear-
ward. Failure to do so may result in death or serious injury.
