2164-5. Toyota Safety Sense
YARIS_HV_OM_Europe_OM52G76E
WARNING
■To avoid malfunction of the front sensor 
Observe the following precautions. 
Otherwise, the front sensor may not  operate properly, possibly leading to an 
accident resulting in death or serious injury. 
● Keep the windshield clean at all times. If the windshield is dirty or covered 
with an oily film, water droplets, snow, etc., clear the windshield. If the
inner side of the windshield in front of the front sensor is dirty, contact any 
authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and 
equipped professional. 
● If there is a large difference in temperature between the inside and outside 
of the vehicle, such as in winter, t he windshield is likely to fog up easily. If 
the part of the windshield in front of the front sensor is fogged up or cov- 
ered with condensation or ice, the PCS warning light may flash or illumi- 
nate and the system may be temporarily disabled. In this case, use the
windshield defogger to remove the fog, etc. ( P. 295)
●Do not attach objects, such as stickers, 
transparent stickers, etc., and so forth,
to the outer side of the windshield in 
front of the front sensor (shaded area in 
the illustration). 
A: From the top of the windshield to 
approximately 10 cm (4.0 in.) below 
the bottom of the front sensor 
B: Approximately 20 cm (7.9 in.) 
(Approximately 10 cm (4.0 in.) to the 
right and left from the center of the
front sensor) 
● Do not install or attach anything to the 
inner side of the windshield under the
front sensor (shaded area in the illustra- 
tion). 
A: Approximately 10 cm (4.0 in.) (Start- 
ing from the bottom of the front sen- 
sor) 
B: Approximately 20 cm (7.9 in.) 
(Approximately 10 cm (4.0 in.) to the
right and left from the center of the 
front sensor)

Maintenance and care
YARIS_HV_OM_Europe_OM52G76E
WARNING
The engine compartment contains many mechanisms and fluids that may 
move suddenly, become hot, or become electrically energized. To avoid death 
or serious injury, observe the following precautions. 
■ When working on the engine compartment 
● Make sure that the power switch is in the “LOCK” position (vehicles with- 
out a smart entry & start system) or the power switch off (vehicles with a 
smart entry & start system) and the “READY” indicator are both off. 
● Keep hands, clothing and tools away from the moving fan. 
● Be careful not to touch the engine, power control unit, radiator, exhaust 
manifold, etc. right after driving as they may be hot. Oil and other fluids 
may also be hot. 
● Do not leave anything that may burn easily, such as paper and rags, in the 
engine compartment. 
● Do not smoke, cause sparks or expose an open flame to fuel. Fuel fumes 
are flammable. 
● Take care because brake fluid can harm your hands or eyes and damage 
painted surfaces. If fluid gets on your hands or in your eyes, flush the
affected area with clean water immediately. 
If you still experience discomfort, consult a doctor. 
■ When working near the electric cooling fan or radiator grille
Vehicles without a smart entry & start system 
Be sure the power switch is in the “LOCK” position.  
With the power switch in the “ON” position, the electric cooling fan may
automatically start to run if the air conditioning is on and/or the coolant tem- 
perature is high. ( P. 340)
Vehicles with a smart entry & start system 
Be sure the power switch is off.  
With the power switch in ON mode, the electric cooling fan may automati- 
cally start to run if the air conditioning is on and/or the coolant temperature
is high. ( P. 340) 
■ Safety glasses 
Wear safety glasses to prevent flying or falling material, fluid spray, etc. 
from getting in your eyes. 

3367-3. Do-it-yourself maintenance
YARIS_HV_OM_Europe_OM52G76E
With the engine at operating temperature and turned off, check the oil 
level on the dipstick.
■Checking the engine oil 
Park the vehicle on level ground. After warming up the engine 
and turning off the hybrid system, wait more than 5 minutes for 
the oil to drain back into the bottom of the engine. 
Holding a rag under the end, 
pull the dipstick out. 
Wipe the dipstick clean. 
Reinsert the dipstick fully. 
Holding a rag under the end, 
pull the dipstick out and 
check the oil level.

The shape of the dipstick 
may differ depending on the 
type of vehicle or engine. 
Wipe the dipstick and reinsert it fully.

YARIS_HV_OM_Europe_OM52G76E
If a war ning light tur ns on or a warning  
buzzer sounds
Calmly perform the following actions if any of the warning lights 
comes on or flashes. If a light comes on or flashes, but then 
goes off, this does not necessarily indicate a malfunction in the
system. However, if this continues to occur, have the vehicle 
inspected by any authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or 
another duly qualified and equipped professional.
Warning light and warning buzzer list
Warning lightWarning light/Details/Actions
(Red)
Brake system warning light (warning buzzer)*1
• Low brake fluid 
• Malfunction in the brake system
This light also comes on when the parking brake is not 
released. If the light turns off after the parking brake is fully 
released, the system is operating normally.
 Immediately stop the vehicle in a safe place and con- 
tact any authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or 
another duly qualified and equipped professional.
Continuing to drive the vehicle may be dangerous.
Charging system warning light 
Indicates a malfunction in the vehicle’s charging system. 
 Immediately stop the vehicle in a safe place and con- 
tact any authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or 
another duly qualified and equipped professional.
Low engine oil pressure warning light 
Indicates that the engine oil pressure is too low.
 Immediately stop the vehicle in a safe place and con- 
tact any authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or 
another duly qualified and equipped professional.
(Red warning light  flashers or comes on)
High engine coolant temperature warning light 
Indicates that the engine is overheating. 
As the coolant temperature rises, it changes from flashing
to steady on.

■Oil capacity (Drain and refill — reference*)
*: The engine oil capacity is a reference quantity to be used when changing 
the engine oil. Warm up the engine and turn off hybrid system, wait more 
than 5 minutes, and check the oil level on the dipstick. 
■Engine oil selection 
“Toyota Genuine Motor Oil” is used in your Toyota vehicle. Toyota 
recommends the use of approved “Toyota Genuine Motor Oil”. 
Another motor oil of matching quality can also be used. 
Oil grade: 
0W-20, 5W-30 and 10W-30: 
API grade SL “Energy-Conserving”, SM “Energy-Conserving” or SN 
“Resource-Conserving”; or ILSAC multigrade engine oil 
15W-40: 
API grade SL, SM or SN multigrade engine oil 
Recommended viscosity (SAE): 
SAE 0W-20 is filled into your 
Toyota vehicle at manufactur- 
ing, and the best choice for 
good fuel economy and good 
starting in cold weather. 
If SAE 0W-20 oil is not avail- 
able, SAE 5W-30 oil may be 
used. However, it should be 
replaced with SAE 0W-20 at the 
next oil change. 
If you use SAE 10W-30 or a 
higher viscosity engine oil in 
extremely low temperatures, 
the engine may become difficult 
to start, so SAE 0W-20 or 
5W-30 engine oil is recom- 
mended.
Lubrication system
With filter 3.7 L (3.9 qt., 3.3 Imp.qt.)
Without filter 3.4 L (3.6 qt., 3.0 Imp.qt.)
Temperature range anticipated  
before next oil change.
Preferred 

4689-1. Specifications
YARIS_HV_OM_Europe_OM52G76E
Oil viscosity (0W-20 is explained here as an example):  
• The 0W in 0W-20 indicates the characteristic of the oil which 
allows cold startability. Oils with a lower value before the W allow 
for easier starting of the engine in cold weather. 
• The 20 in 0W-20 indicates the viscosity characteristic of the oil 
when the oil is at high temperature. An oil with a higher viscosity 
(one with a higher value) may be better suited if the vehicle is 
operated at high speeds, or under extreme load conditions. 
How to read oil container labels: 
Either or both API registered marks are added to some oil contain- 
ers to help you select the oil you should use. 
API Service Symbol
Top portion: “API SERVICE SN” 
means the oil quality designa-
tion by American Petroleum 
Institute (API). 
Center portion: “SAE 0W-20” 
means the SAE viscosity grade. 
Lower portion: “Resource-Con- 
serving” means that the oil has
fuel-saving and environmental 
protection capabilities.
ILSAC Certification Mark
The International Lubricant Specification Advisory Committee (ILSAC)
Certification Mark is displayed on the front of the container.
