■ Raindrop sensor
● If the wiper switch is turned to while the engine switch is in IGNITION
ON mode, the wiper will operate once to show that “AUTO” mode is acti-
vated.
● When the sensor sensitivity ring is turned toward high while in “AUTO”
mode, the wiper will operate once to indicate that the sensor sensitivity is
enhanced.
● If the temperature of the raindrop sensor is 90°C (194°F) or higher, or -15°C
(5°F) or lower, automatic operation may not occur. In this case, operate the
wiper in any mode other than “AUTO” mode.
■ If no windshield washer fluid sprays
Check that the washer nozzle is not blocked, if there is washer fluid in the

YARIS_GRMN_OM_Europe_OM52J40E
Winter driving tips
●Use fluids that are appropriate to the prevailing outside tempera-
tures.
• Engine oil
• Engine/intercooler coolant
• Washer fluid
● Have a service technician inspect the condition of the battery.
● Have the vehicle fitted with four snow tires.
Ensure that all tires are the same size and brand.
Perform the following according to the driving conditions:
● Do not try to forcibly open a window or move a wiper that is frozen.
Pour warm water over the frozen area to melt the ice. Wipe away
the water immediately to prevent it from freezing.
● To ensure proper operation of the climate control system fan,
remove any snow that has accumulated on the air inlet vents in
front of the windshield.
● Check for and remove any excess ice or snow that may have accu-
mulated on the exterior lights, vehicle’s roof, chassis, around the
tires or on the brakes.
● Remove any snow or mud from the bottom of your shoes before
getting in the vehicle.
Carry out the necessary preparations and inspections before
driving the vehicle in winter. Always drive the vehicle in a man-
ner appropriate to the prevailing weather conditions.
