of the negative (black) jumper cable to
a solid, stationary, unpainted, metallic
point of the vehicle with the discharged
battery.
The recommended connecting point is
shown in the following illustration:

Connecting point
Do not connect the cable to or near
any part that moves when the engine
is cranked.
CAUTION
When making the connections, to
avoid death or serious injury, do not
lean over the battery or accidentally
let the jumper cables or clamps touch
anything except the correct battery
terminals or the ground.
4.Multi−mode manual transmission:
Turn the engine switch to “ON” posi-
tion. Hold down the brake pedal firmly,
and place the shift lever to “N” posi-
tion. Make sure that the “N” indicator
in the instrument cluster comes on.
Then start your engine in a normal
way.
Manual transmission:Start your en-
gine in the normal way.
After starting, run it at about 2000 rpm
for several minutes with the accelerator
pedal lightly depressed.
5. Carefully disconnect the cables in the
exact reverse order: The negative
cable and then the positive cable.

224IN CASE OF AN EMERGENCY
If the cause of the battery discharging is
not apparent (for example lights left on)
you should have it checked at any
authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or
another duly qualified and equipped
professional.
If the first start attempt is not success-
ful...
Check that the clamp on the jumper
cables are tight. Recharge the discharged
battery with the jumper cables connected
for several minutes and restart your en-
gine in the normal way.
If another attempt is not successful, the
battery may be depleted. Have it checked
at any authorized Toyota dealer or repair-
er, or another duly qualified and equipped
professional.If your engine stalls while driving...
1. Reduce your speed gradually, keeping
a straight line. Move cautiously off the
road to a safe place.
2. Turn on your emergency flashers.
3. Try starting the engine again.
If the engine will not start, see “If your
vehicle will not start” on page 220 in this
Section.
CAUTION
If the engine is not running, the pow-
er assist for the brakes will not work
so braking will be much harder than
usual.
AYGO WE 99E37E11 02.18
If your engine stalls while
driving

IN CASE OF AN EMERGENCY225
If engine speed does not increase when
the accelerator pedal is depressed, there
may be a problem somewhere in the elec-
tronic throttle control system.
At this time, vibration may occur. Howev-
er, if you depress the accelerator pedal
more firmly and slowly, you can drive your
vehicle at low speeds. Have your Toyota
checked by any authorized Toyota dealer
or repairer, or another duly qualified and
equipped professional, as soon as pos-
sible.
Even if the abnormality of the electronic
throttle control system is corrected during
low speed driving, thesystem may not be
recovered until the engine is stopped and
the engine switch is turned to “ACC” or
“LOCK” position.
CAUTION
Be especially careful to prevent erro-
neous pedal operation.
If your high engine coolant temperature
warning light flashes to indicates over-
heating, if you experience a loss of
power, or if you hear a loud knocking
or pinging noise, the engine has prob-
ably overheated. You should follow this
procedure...
1. Pull safely off the road, stop the ve-
hicle and turn on your emergency
flashers. Put the transmission in “N”
(multi−mode manual transmission), or
neutral (manual transmission) and ap-
ply the parking brake. Turn off the air
conditioning if it is being used.
2. If coolant or steam is boiling out of the
radiator or reservoir, stop the engine.
Wait until the steam subsides before
opening the hood. If there is no coolant
boiling over or steam, leave the engine
running and make sure the electric
cooling fan is operating. If it is not,
turn the engine switch off.
CAUTION
To help avoid personal injury, keep
the hood closed until there is no
steam. Escaping steam or coolant is
a sign of very high pressure.
3. Look for obvious coolant leaks from the
radiator, hoses, and under the vehicle.
However, note that water draining from
the air conditioning is normal if it has
been used.
CAUTION
When the engine is running, keep
hands and clothing away from the
moving fan and engine drive belts.

If your vehicle overheats

226IN CASE OF AN EMERGENCY
4. If the coolant is leaking, stop the en-
gine immediately. Call any authorized
Toyota dealer or repairer, or another
duly qualified and equipped profession-
al, for assistance.
5. If there are no obvious leaks, check
the coolant reservoir. If it is dry, add
coolant to the reservoir while the
engine is running. Fill it about half full.
For the coolant type see “Coolant type
selection” on page 267 in Section 7−2.
CAUTION
Do not attempt to remove the radiator
cap when the engine and radiator are
hot. Serious injury could result from
scalding hot fluid and steam blown
out under pressure.
6. After the engine coolant temperature
has cooled to normal, again check the
coolant level in the reservoir. If
necessary, bring it up to half full again.
Serious coolant loss indicates a leak in
the system. You should have it
checked as soon as possible at any
authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or
another duly qualified and equipped
professional.1. Reduce your speed gradually, keeping
a straight line. Move cautiously off the
road to a safe place well away from
the traffic. Avoid stopping on the center
divider of a highway. Park on a level
spot with firm ground.
2. Stop the engine and turn on your
emergency flashers.
3.Manual transmission:
Firmly set the parking brake and put
the transmission in reverse.
Multi−mode manual transmission:
Securely apply the parking brake and
turn the engine switch “ON”. After the
operation, shift the shift lever to “M(1)”,
“E(1)” or “R”.
4. Have everyone get out of the vehicle
onthesideawayfromtraffic.
5. Read the following instructions thor-
oughly.
CAUTION
When jacking, be sure to observe the
following to help reduce the possibil-
ity of death or serious injury:
DFollow jacking instructions.
DDo not put any part of your body
under a vehicle supported by a
jack. Otherwise, death or serious
injury may occur.
DDo not start or run the engine while
your vehicle is supported by the
jack.
DStop the vehicle on a level firm
ground, firmly set the parking brake
and put the transmission in reverse.
Block the wheel diagonally opposite
to the one being changed if neces-
sary.
AYGO WE 99E37E11 02.18
If you have a flat tire—

IN CASE OF AN EMERGENCY227
DMake sure to set the jack properly
in the jack point. Raising the ve-
hicle with the jack improperly posi-
tioned will damage the vehicle or
may allow the vehicle to fall off the
jack and cause death or serious in-
jury.
DNever get under the vehicle when
the vehicle is supported by the jack
alone.
DUse the jack only for lifting your
vehicle during wheel changing.
DDo not raise the vehicle with any-
one in the vehicle.
DWhen raising the vehicle, do not
place any objects on top of or un-
derneath the jack.
DRaise the vehicle only high enough
to remove and change the tire.
NOTICE
Do not continue driving with a de-
flated tire. Driving even a short dis-
tance can damage the tire and wheel
beyond repair.

To remove the spare tire:
1. Remove the tool tray.
2. Loosen the bolt and remove it.
Then take the spare tire out of the ve-
hicle.
When storing the spare tire, put it in place
with the inner side of the wheel facing up.
Then secure the tire by repeating the
above removal steps in reverse order to
prevent it from flying forward during a
collision or sudden braking.
—Blocking the wheel
MS41001
2. Block the wheel diagonally opposite
the flat tire to keep the vehicle from
rolling when it is jacked up.
When blocking the wheel, place a wheel
block in front of one of the front wheels
or behind one of the rear wheels.

3. Remove the wheel ornament.
Pry off the wheel ornament, using the
wheel bolt wrench as shown.
CAUTION
Do not try to pull off the ornament by
hand. Take due care in handling the
ornament to avoid unexpected person-
al injury.
—Loosening wheel bolts
MS41012b
4. Loosen all the wheel bolts.
Always loosen the wheel bolts before rais-
ing the vehicle.
Turn the wheel bolts counterclockwise to
loosen. To get maximum leverage, fit the
wrench to the bolt so that the handle is
on the right side, as shown above. Grab
the wrench near the end of the handle
and pull up on the handle. Be careful that
the wrench does not slip off the bolt.
Do not remove the bolts yet—just unscrew
them about one−half turn.
CAUTION
Never use oil or grease on the bolts.
The bolts may loosen and the wheels
may fall off, which could cause a se-
rious accident.

CAUTION
Steel wheels: Never use tools, such
as an Allen wrench, that are used by
applying them to a hexagonal con-
cave portion of a bolt head. Doing so
could cause bolt deformation and im-
proper installation, and may result in
serious injury.
—Positioning the jack

Make sure the jack is positioned on a
level and solid place.
