YARIS_HB_OM_USA_OM52G64U• If the wheels are misaligned
• If a wiper blade is blocking the front sensor
• The vehicle is wobbling.
• The vehicle is being driven at extremely high speeds.
• When driving on roads with sharp bends or uneven surfaces
• When a preceding vehicle is a poor reflector of laser
● In some situations such as the following, sufficient braking force may not be
obtained, preventing the system from performing properly:
• If the braking functions cannot operate to their full extent, such as when
the brake parts are extremely cold, extremely hot, or wet
• If the vehicle is not properly maintained (brakes or tires are excessively worn, improper tire inflation pressure, etc.)
• When the vehicle is being driven on a gravel road or other slippery sur-
face
• If your vehicle is skidding

■Temporary cancelation of the LDA system functions
If any of the following occurs, the LDA system functions will be temporarily
canceled. The functions will resume after the necessary operating conditions
have returned.
●The turn signal lever is operated.
● The vehicle speed deviates from the operating range of the LDA system
functions.
● When the lane lines cannot be recognized while driving.
● When the lane departure warning sounds.
The lane departure warning function will not operate again for a several sec-
onds after it has been activated, even if the vehicle leaves the lane again.
■ The lane departure warning
Depending on the audio system sound le vel or air conditioning fan noise
while the audio system or air conditioning system is in use, it may be difficult
to hear the warning sound.
■ After the vehicle has been parked in the sun
The LDA system may not be immediately available. When the temperature in
the cabin decreases and the temperature around the front sensor ( P. 161)
becomes suitable for its operation, the functions will begin to operate.
■ If there are lane markers on only one side of the vehicle
The lane departure warning will not operate for the side on which lane mark-
ers could not be recognized.
■ Conditions in which the function may not operate correctly
In the following situations, the front sensor may be unable to recognize lane
markers causing the lane departure warning function to operate incorrectly.
However, this does not indicate a malfunction.
●When driving through an area, such as a tollbooth, a crossing or before a
ticket checkpoint
● When driving on a sharp curve
● When lane markers are extremel y narrow or extremely wide
● When the vehicle leans to one side an unusual amount due to a heavy load
or improper tire inflation pressure
● When the following distance between your vehicle and the vehicle ahead is
extremely short
● When the lane markers are yellow (These may be more difficult for the sys-
tem to recognize compared to white markers.)
● When the lane markers are broken, Botts’ dots (raised pavement markers)
or stones

High beam may be turned on or off when unexpected by the driver.
● In the situations below, the system may not be able to correctly detect the
surrounding brightness levels, and may flash or expose nearby pedestrians
to the high beam. Therefore, you should consider turning the high beams on
or off manually rather than relying on the Automatic High Beam system.
• In bad weather (rain, snow, fog, sandstorms, etc.)
• The windshield is obscured by fog, mist, ice, dirt, etc.
• The windshield is cracked or damaged.
• The front sensor is deformed or dirty.
• The front sensor temperature is extremely high.
• Surrounding brightness levels are equal to those of headlights, tail lights
or fog lights.
• Vehicles ahead have headlights or tail lights that are either switched off, dirty, are changing color, or are not aimed properly.
• When driving through an area of intermittently changing brightness and
darkness.
• When frequently and repeatedly driving ascending/descending roads, or roads with rough, bumpy or uneven surfaces (such as stone-paved
roads, gravel tracks, etc.).
• When frequently and repeatedly taking curves or driving on a winding road.
• There is a highly reflective object ahead of the vehicle, such as a sign or a mirror.
• The back of a vehicle ahead is highly reflective, such as a container on a
truck.
• The vehicle’s headlights are damaged or dirty.
• The vehicle is listing or titling, due to a flat tire, a trailer being towed, etc.
• The driver believes that the high beam may be causing problems or dis- tress to other drivers or pedestrians nearby.
■ If the Automatic High Beam indicator comes on in yellow
It may indicate a malfunction in the system. Contact your Toyota dealer.
■ Temporarily lowering sensor sensitivity
The sensitivity of the sensor can be temporarily lowered.
Turn the engine switch off while the following conditions are met.
• The headlight switch is in .
• The headlight switch lever is in low beam position.
• Automatic High Beam switch is on.
Turn the engine switch to the “ON” position.
Within 30 seconds after , repeat pulling the headlight switch lever to the
original position then pushing it to the high beam position quickly 10 times,

YARIS_HB_OM_USA_OM52G64U
WARNING
■When the VSC is activated
The slip indicator flashes. Always drive carefully. Reckless driving may
cause an accident. Exercise particular care when the indicator light flashes.
■ When the TRAC/VSC systems are turned off
Be especially careful and drive at a speed appropriate to the road condi-
tions. As these are the systems to help ensure vehicle stability and driving
force, do not turn the TRAC/VSC systems off unless necessary.
■
Replacing tires
Make sure that all tires are of the specified size, brand, tread pattern
and total load capacity. In addition, make sure that the tires are inflated
to the recommended tire inflation pressure level.
The ABS, TRAC and VSC systems will not function correctly if different
tires are installed on the vehicle.
Contact your Toyota dealer for further information when replacing tires
or wheels.
■Handling of tires and the suspension
Using tires with any kind of problem or modifying the suspension will
affect the driving assist systems, and may cause a system to malfunc-
tion.
