YARIS iA_OM_OM99Q46z_(U)
■Washing
●Toyota is not responsible for scratches caused by automatic car washes or
improper washing.
● Scratches are more noticeable on vehicles with darker paint finishes.
■ Waxing
A spot remover to remove oil, tar, and similar materials will usually also take
off the wax. Rewax these areas even if the rest of the vehicle does not need
it.
WARNING
■Dry off brakes that have become wet by driving slowly, releasing the
accelerator pedal and lightly applyi ng the brakes several times until
the brake performance returns to normal
Driving with wet brakes is dangerous. Increased stopping distance or the
vehicle pulling to one side when braking could result in a serious accident.
Light braking will indicate whether the brakes have been affected.
NOTICE
● Do not spray water in the engine compartment. Otherwise, it could result in
engine-starting problems or damage to electrical parts.
● When washing and waxing the vehicle, be careful not to apply excessive
force to any single area of the vehicle roof. Otherwise, you could dent the
vehicle.
● Do not use steel wool, abrasive cleaners, or strong detergents containing
highly alkaline or caustic agents on chrome-plated or anodized aluminum
parts. This may damage the protective coating; also, cleaners and deter-
gents may discolor or deteriorate the paint.

Road chemicals and salt used for ice and snow removal and solvents
used for dust control may collect on the underbody. If not removed,
they will speed up rusti ng and deterioration of such underbody parts
as fuel lines, frame, floor pan, a nd exhaust system, even though these
parts may be coated with anti-corrosive material.
Thoroughly flush the underbody and wheel housings with lukewarm or
cold water at the end of each winter. Try also to do this every month.
Pay special attention to these areas because they easily hide mud
and dirt. It will do more harm than good to wet down the road grime
without removing it.
The lower edges of doors, rocker panels, and frame members have
drain holes that should not be clogged. Water tr apped there will cause
rusting.
A protective coating is provided over the aluminum wheels. Special
care is needed to protect this coating.

Parking in an Emergency
The hazard warning lights should
always be used when you stop on
or near a roadway in an emer-
gency.
The hazard warning lights warn
other drivers that your vehicle is a
traffic hazard and that they must
take extreme caution when near
it.
Depress the hazard warning flasher and all the turn signals will flash.
The hazard warning indicator lights in the combination meter flash
simultaneously.
● The turn signals do not work when the hazard warning lights are on.
● Check local regulations about the use of hazard warning lights while the
vehicle is being towed to verify that it is not in violation of the law.

Put a vehicle with an automatic tr ansaxle in park (P), a manual tran-
saxle in neutral.

Do not go near the front of the vehicle. Stop the engine.
Wait until the steam dissipates, then open the hood and start the
engine.
If neither coolant nor steam is escaping
Open the hood and idle the engine until it cools.
Make sure the cooling fan is operating, then turn off the engine after
the temperature has decreased.
When cool, check the coolant level.
If it is low, look for coolant leaks from the radiator and hoses.
■If you find a leak or other damage , or if coolant is still leaking:
Stop the engine and call your Toyota dealer.
