When driving
YARIS_F (including HV)_WE_52D27E
When driving with the cruise control activated (if equipped)
Even when performing the following actions with the intent of enabling
engine braking, engine braking will not activate because cruise control will
not be canceled.
• While driving in D or 7-speed sport sequential shiftmatic mode, down-
shifting to 6, 5, or 4. (P. 255)
• When switching the driving mode to sport mode while driving in D posi-
tion. (P. 254)
When the vehicle comes to a stop with the shift lever in the M position
The transmission will automatically downshift to M1 once the vehicle is
stopped.
After a stop, the vehicle will start off in M1.
When the vehicle is stopped, the transmission is set at M1.
If the shift lever cannot be shifted from P
P. 613
If the “M” indicator flashes or a buzzer beeps after shifting the shift
lever to M
This may indicate a malfunction in the Multidrive system. Have the vehicle
inspected by any authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly quali-
fied and equipped professional immediately.
(In this situation, the transmission will operate in the same manner as when
the shift lever is in D.)
Downshift restriction warning buzzer (vehicles with a 7-speed sport
sequential shiftmatic mode)
To help ensure safety and driving performance, downshifting operation may
sometimes be restricted. In some circumstances, downshifting may not be
possible even when the shift lever or paddle shift switches are operated. (A
buzzer will sound twice.)
CAUTION
When driving on slippery road surfaces
Do not accelerate or shift gear steps suddenly.
Sudden changes in engine braking may cause the vehicle to spin or skid,
resulting in an accident.

Multi-mode manual transmission
: If equipped
Select a shift position appropriate for the driving conditions.
Shifting the shift lever
Shift position purpose
*1: The most appropriate gear is automatically selected upon an opera-
tion of the accelerator pedal and vehicle speed.
*2: A gear must be selected manually. However, the gear may automati-
cally be changed down optimally according to vehicle speed.

Maximum allowable speeds
Observe the following maximum allowable speeds in each gear.
Es mode automatic deactivation
Es mode is automatically deactivated if the “ENGINE START STOP” switch
(vehicles with a smart entry & start system) or the engine switch (vehicles
without a smart entry & start system) is turned off after driving in Es mode.
If the shift lever cannot be shifted
With the shift lever in N
Depress the brake pedal to shift the shift lever. If the shift lever cannot be
shifted with your foot on the brake, there may be a problem with the shift
lock system. (P. 614)
With the shift lever in a position other than N
P. 614
If the driver's door is opened when the shift lever is in a position other
than N and the engine is running
A buzzer will sound. Close the driver’s door.
If the parking brake is set when the shift lever is in a position other
than N with engine running
When the driver’s door is opened
A buzzer will sound and the gear position will automatically change to N
in 10 seconds.
When the driver’s door is closed
A buzzer will sound and the gear position will automatically change to N
in 90 seconds.

If the “M” indicator does not come on even after shifting the shift lever
to M
This may indicate a malfunction in the multi-mode manual transmission sys-
tem. Have the vehicle inspected by any authorized Toyota dealer or repairer,
or another duly qualified and equipped professional immediately.
(In this situation, the transmission will operate in the same manner as when
the shift lever is in E.)
If the “N” indicator is flashing
When shifting the shift lever
Shift the shift lever to N. Wait a few seconds and shift the shift lever to the
desired position.
When the engine is turned off
Vehicles without a smart entry & start system: Turn the engine switch to
the “ON” position. Depress the brake pedal and shift the shift lever to N,
and then to the desired position.
Vehicles with a smart entry & start system: Turn the “ENGINE START
STOP” switch to IGNITION ON mode. Depress the brake pedal and shift
the shift lever to N, and then to the desired position.
If the indicator still flashes after the above operations, shift the shift lever to
N and start the engine. Then, shift the shift lever to the desired position.
If the “N” indicator is flashing and warning buzzer is beeping
Shift the shift lever to N, and then to E, M or R.
Reverse warning buzzer
When shifting into R, a buzzer will sound to inform the driver that the shift
lever is in R.
Downshift restriction warning buzzer (in E mode [when the paddle shift
switches are operated] or M mode)
To help ensure safety and driving performance, downshifting operation may
sometimes be restricted. In some circumstances, downshifting may not be
possible even when the shift lever or paddle shift switches are operated. (A
buzzer will sound twice.)

Hybrid System Indicator
By keeping the indicator needle within Eco area, more Eco-friendly driv-
ing can be achieved.
Charge area indicates regeneration
* status. Regenerated energy will be
used to charge the battery.
*: When used in this manual, “regeneration” refers to the conversion of
energy created by the movement of the vehicle into electrical energy.
Power area
Shows that the driving power is more
than the upper limit of Eco driving.
Eco area
Shows that the vehicle is driven Eco-
friendly.
Hybrid Eco area
Shows that the vehicle is driven in a
condition that promotes frequent
motor-only operation. (When the vehi-
cle is operating with low driving load,
such as when driving slowly, using
Hybrid Eco area leads Eco-friendly
driving.)
Charge area
Shows regenerative charging.
