Driving
AYGO_OM_Europe_OM99R19E
WARNING
●While driving, such as when driving through a railway crossing, the system 
may determine that the possibility of a collision with an object, such as rail- 
way crossing barrier, is high and operate the pre-collision braking function.
To move the vehicle in an emergency, such as if the system operates in a 
railway crossing, perform the following operations and then take the nec- 
essary measures to ensure your safety. 
• If the vehicle has been stopped, depress the accelerator pedal. 
• If the vehicle is decelerating, fully depress the accelerator pedal.  
( P. 223) 
• Disable the pre-collision system. ( P. 222) 
■ When to disable the pre-collision system In the following situations, disable the system, as it may not operate prop- 
erly, possibly leading to an accident resulting in death or serious injury: 
● When the vehicle is being towed 
● When your vehicle is towing another vehicle 
● When transporting the vehicle via truck, boat, train or similar means of 
transportation 
● When the vehicle is raised on a lift with the engine running and the tires 
are allowed to rotate freely 
● When inspecting the vehicle using a drum tester such as a chassis dyna- 
mometer or speedometer tester, or when using an on vehicle wheel bal- 
ancer 
● If the vehicle cannot be driven in a stable manner, such as when the vehi- 
cle has been in an accident or is malfunctioning 
● When the vehicle is driven in a sporty manner or off-road 
● When the condition of the tires is poor and they do not perform well 
( P. 372) 
● When tires of a size other than specified are installed 
● When tire chains are installed 
● When a compact spare tire or an emergency tire puncture repair kit is used

3767-3. Do-it-yourself maintenance
AYGO_OM_Europe_OM99R19E
WARNING
■Maintenance of the tires (vehicles with the tire pressure warning sys- 
tem) 
Each tire, including the spare (if provided), should be checked monthly 
when cold and inflated to the inflation pressure recommended by the vehi- 
cle manufacturer on the vehicle placard or tire inflation pressure label (tire
and load information label). (If your vehicle has tires of a different size than 
the size indicated on the vehicle placard or tire inflation pressure label [tire 
and load information label], you should determine the proper tire inflation
pressure for those tires.) 
As an added safety feature, your vehicle has been equipped with a tire 
pressure monitoring system (TPMS-tire  pressure warning system) that illu- 
minates a low tire pressure telltale (tire pressure warning light) when one or 
more of your tires is significantly under-inflated. Accordingly, when the low 
tire pressure telltale (tire pressure warning light) illuminates, you should
stop and check your tires as soon as possible, and inflate them to the 
proper pressure. Driving on a significantly under-inflated tire causes the tire 
to overheat and can lead to tire failure. Under-inflation also reduces fuel effi-
ciency and tire tread life, and may affect the vehicle’s handling and stopping 
ability. 
Please note that the TPMS (tire pressure warning system) is not a substi- 
tute for proper tire maintenance, and it is the driver’s responsibility to main- 
tain correct tire pressure, even if under-inflation has not reached the level to 
trigger illumination of the TPMS low tire pressure telltale (tire pressure
warning light). 
Your vehicle has also been equipped with a TPMS (tire pressure warning 
system) malfunction indicator to indicate when the system is not operating
properly. The TPMS (tire  pressure warning system) malfunction indicator is 
combined with the low tire pressure telltale (tire pressure warning light). 
When the system detects a malfunction, the telltale will flash for approxi- 
mately one minute and then remain continuously illuminated. This
sequence will continue upon subsequent vehicle start-ups as long as the 
malfunction exists. When the malfunction  indicator is illuminated, the sys- 
tem may not be able to detect or signal low tire pressure as intended. 
TPMS (tire pressure warning system) malfunctions may occur for a variety 
of reasons, including the installation of replacement or alternate tires or 
wheels on the vehicle that prevent the TPMS (tire pressure warning system)
from functioning properly. Always check the TPMS (tire pressure warning 
system) malfunction telltale after replacing one or more tires or wheels on 
your vehicle to ensure that the repl acement or alternate tires and wheels 
allow the TPMS (tire pressure warning system) to continue to function prop- 
erly.

4248-2. Steps to take in an emergency
AYGO_OM_Europe_OM99R19E
WARNING
■If both the ABS and the brake system warning lights remain on 
Stop your vehicle in a safe place immediately and contact any authorized 
Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized r epairer, or any reliable repairer. The 
vehicle will become extremely unstable during braking, and the ABS system 
may fail, which could cause an accident resulting in death or serious injury. 
■ When the electric power steering system warning light comes on 
The steering wheel may become extremely heavy. 
When steering wheel operations are heavier than usual, grip the steering 
wheel firmly and operate it using more force than usual. 
■ If the tire pressure warning light comes on (vehicles with the tire pres- 
sure warning system) 
Be sure to observe the following precautions. Failure to do so could cause a 
loss of vehicle control and result in death or serious injury. 
● Stop your vehicle in a safe place as soon as possible. Adjust the tire infla- 
tion pressure immediately.  
● If the tire pressure warning light comes on even after tire inflation pressure 
adjustment, it is probable that you have a  flat tire. Check the tires. If a tire 
is flat, change it with the spare tire and have the flat tire repaired by the
nearest any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or 
any reliable repairer. 
● Avoid abrupt maneuvering and braking. If the vehicle tires deteriorate, you 
could lose control of the steering wheel or the brakes. 
■ If a blowout or sudden air leakage should occur (vehicles with the tire 
pressure warning system) 
The tire pressure warning system may not activate immediately.
NOTICE
■ To ensure the tire pressure warning system operates properly (vehi- 
cles with the tire pressure warning system) 
Do not install tires with different specif ications or makers, as the tire pres- 
sure warning system may not operate properly.

If you have a flat tire (vehicles without a  
spare tire)
Your vehicle is not equipped with a spare tire, but instead is 
equipped with an emergency tire puncture repair kit. 
A puncture caused by a nail or screw passing through the tire
tread can be repaired temporarily with the emergency tire punc- 
ture repair kit.
WARNING
■ If you have a flat tire 
Do not continue driving with a flat tire. 
Driving even a short distance with a flat tire can damage the tire and the 
wheel beyond repair, which could result in an accident. 
Driving with a flat tire may cause a circumferential groove on the side wall.
In such a case, the tire may explode when using a repair kit.
