air conditioning TOYOTA YARIS HYBRID 2013 User Guide

252 2-1. Driving procedures
YARIS_F (including HV)_WE_52D27E
Operation of the air conditioning system in Eco drive mode
Eco drive mode controls the heating/cooling operations and fan speed of the
air conditioning system to enhance fuel efficiency. (P. 366) To improve air
conditioning performance, adjust the temperature setting or fan speed, or
turn off Eco drive mode.
When in heavy traffic
If the shift lever is in N, the hybrid battery (traction battery) will not be
charged. To help prevent the battery from discharging, avoid putting the shift
lever in N for an extended period of time.
If the shift lever cannot be shifted from P
P. 613
CAUTION
When driving on slippery road surfaces
Do not accelerate or shift gears suddenly.
Sudden changes in engine braking may cause the vehicle to spin or skid,
resulting in an accident.

YARIS_F (including HV)_WE_52D27EIf the Stop & Start cancel switch is pressed while the vehicle is
stopped
When the engine is stopped by the Stop & Start system, press-
ing the Stop & Start cancel switch will restart the engine.
From the next time the vehicle is stopped (after Stop & Start sys-
tem has been turned off), the engine will not be stopped.
With the Stop & Start system disabled, pressing the Stop & Start
cancel switch will re-enable the system but not stop the engine.
From the next time the vehicle is stopped (after Stop & Start sys-
tem has been turned on), the engine will be stopped.
Operating conditions
The Stop & Start system is operational when all of the following condi-
tions are met:
• The engine is adequately warmed up.
• The battery is sufficiently charged.
• The driver’s door is closed.
• Vehicles with a Multidrive: The driver’s seat belt is fastened.
• The hood is closed.
• The accelerator pedal is not being depressed.
• The shift lever is not in R.
In the following circumstances the engine may not be stopped by the
Stop & Start system. This is not a malfunction of the Stop & Start system.
• Engine coolant temperature or transmission fluid temperature is too
low or too high.
• The air conditioning system is being used when the vehicle interior
temperature is extremely high such as after the vehicle was parked
under the hot sun.
• Vehicles with an automatic air conditioning system only: The wind-
shield defogger is being used.
• The battery is not sufficiently charged, or is undergoing a periodic
recharge.
• Due to traffic or other circumstances the vehicle is stopped repeatedly,
resulting in the amount of time the engine is stopped by the Stop &
Start system to become excessively high.
• The brake pedal is not depressed firmly.

When driving
YARIS_F (including HV)_WE_52D27E
• The vehicle is stopped on a steep hill.
• The brake booster vacuum is low.
• A large amount of electricity is being used.
• At high altitude.
When the above conditions improve, the Stop & Start system will stop and
restart the engine from the next time the vehicle is stopped.
In the following situations, the engine may start even without the brake
pedal being released (vehicles with a Multidrive) or clutch pedal being
depressed (vehicles with a manual transmission).
• The brake pedal is pumped or strongly depressed.
• The air conditioning system is being used or turned on.
• Vehicles with an automatic air conditioning system only: The wind-
shield defogger is turned on.
• The battery is not sufficiently charged.
• The vehicle starts to roll on an incline.
• Vehicles with a Multidrive: The hood is opened when the shift lever is in
N or P.
• The accelerator pedal is depressed.
• A large amount of electricity is being used.
• Vehicles with a Multidrive: The driver’s door is opened.
• Vehicles with a Multidrive: The driver’s seat belt is unfastened.
In the following situations, it may take longer than normal for the Stop &
Start system to activate.
• The battery is discharged.
• After the battery terminals have been disconnected and reconnected
after a battery replacement, etc.
• The engine coolant temperature is low.
Automatic reactivation of the Stop & Start system
Vehicles without a smart entry & start system:
Even if the Stop & Start system is disabled by the Stop & Start cancel switch,
it will be automatically re-enabled once the engine switch is turned to the
“LOCK” position then to the “START” position.
Vehicles with a smart entry & start system:
Even if the Stop & Start system is disabled by the Stop & Start cancel switch,
it will be automatically re-enabled once the “ENGINE START STOP” switch
is turned off then the engine is started.

When driving
YARIS_F (including HV)_WE_52D27E
Stop & Start system warning buzzer
If the engine is stopped by the Stop & Start system and either of the following
actions is performed, a buzzer will sound and the Stop & Start indicator will
flash (vehicles with a Multidrive), or a buzzer will sound (vehicles with a
manual transmission). This indicates that the engine is only stopped by the
Stop & Start system, not that the engine has been turned off completely.
Vehicles with a Multidrive: The driver’s door is opened when the shift
lever is in D or M.
Vehicles with a Multidrive: The shift lever is shifted into a position other
than N or P with the brake pedal released.
Vehicles with a manual transmission: The shift lever is shifted into a posi-
tion other than N with the clutch pedal released.
If the Stop & Start cancel indicator light continues to flash
The Stop & Start system may be malfunctioning. Contact any authorized
Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped profes-
sional.
If the windshield is fogged up while the engine is stopped by the Stop
& Start system
Vehicles with an automatic air conditioning system
Turn the windshield defogger on. (The engine will start due to the auto-
matic engine start function.) (P. 363)
Vehicles with a manual air conditioning system
• Vehicles with a Multidrive: Restart the engine by releasing the brake
pedal (when the shift lever is in D or M) or depress the brake pedal and
shift the shift lever to D or M (when the shift lever is in N or P) (P.
317), or by pressing the Stop & Start cancel switch, and then set the air
outlet selector dial to . (P. 355)
• Vehicles with a manual transmission: Restart the engine by depressing
the clutch pedal (P. 317), or by pressing the Stop & Start cancel
switch, and then set the air outlet selector dial to . (P. 355)
If the windshield fogs up frequently, press the Stop & Start cancel switch to
deactivate the system.

350 2-5. Driving information
YARIS_F (including HV)_WE_52D27ETransmission information
Vehicles with a Multidrive and multi-mode manual transmission:
To maintain engine braking efficiency, when using engine braking,
do not use the transmission in D. Transmission shift gear position
must be in 4 in the M mode. (P. 253, 258)
Vehicles with a manual transmission:
To maintain engine braking efficiency, when using engine braking,
do not use the transmission in 5 and 6 (vehicles with a 6-speed
manual transmission) gear. (P. 263)
If the engine overheats
Towing a loaded trailer up a long, steep incline in temperatures
exceeding 30C (85F) may result in the engine overheating. If the
high engine coolant temperature warning light flashes or comes
on, turn the air conditioning off immediately, leave the road and
stop the vehicle in a safe place. (P. 632)
When parking the vehicle
Always place wheel chocks under the wheels of both the vehicle
and trailer. Firmly set the parking brake and shift the shift lever to P
for Multidrives, E, M or R for multi-mode manual transmissions,
and 1 or R for manual transmissions.
