● 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 lightsor 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 anddarkness. • When frequently and repeatedly driving ascending/descending roads, or roads with rough, bumpy or uneven surfaces (such as stone-pavedroads, gravel tracks, etc.).• When frequently and repeatedly taking curves or driving on a windingroad.• 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 atruck.• 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 (vehicles with monochrome display)
It may indicate a malfunction in the system. Contact any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer.
■ If “Headlight system malfunction. Visit your dealer.” is displayed on the multi-information display ( vehicles with color display)
The system may be malfunctioning. Have the vehicle inspected by any autho- rized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer.
3544-6. Using the driving support systems
YARIS_F_OM_Europe_OM52K19E
WARNING
■When the VSC is activated
The slip indicator light flashes. Always drive carefully. Reckless driving may
cause an accident. Exercise particular care when the indicator light flashes.
■ When the TRC/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 TRC/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, TRC and VSC systems will not function correctly if different tires
are installed on the vehicle.
Contact any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any
reliable repairer 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 malfunction.

■Where to go for the maintenance service?
In order to maintain your vehicle in the best possible condition, Toyota recom-
mends that all repairs and service operations be carried out by authorized
Toyota retailers or Toyota authorized repairers, or any reliable repairers. For
repairs and services covered by your warranty, please visit an authorized
Toyota retailer or repairer, who will use genuine Toyota parts in repairing any
difficulties you may encounter. There can also be advantages in utilizing
authorized Toyota retailers or repairers for non-warranty repairs and services,
as members of the Toyota network will be able to expertly assist you with any
difficulties you may encounter.
Your Toyota retailer or Toyota authoriz ed repairer, or any reliable repairer will
perform all of the scheduled maintenance on your vehicle reliably and eco-
nomically due to their experience with Toyota vehicles.
■ Does your vehicle need repairs?
Be on the alert for changes in performance and sounds, and visual tip-offs
that indicate service is needed. Some important clues are:
● Engine misfire, stumbling or pinging
● Appreciable loss of power
● Strange engine noises
● A fluid leak under the vehicle (However, water dripping from the air condi-
tioning system after use is normal.)
● Change in exhaust sound (This may indicate a dangerous carbon monoxide
leak. Drive with the windows open and have the exhaust system checked
immediately.)
● Flat-looking tires, excessive tire squeal when cornering, uneven tire wear
● Vehicle pulls to one side when driven straight on a level road
● Strange noises related to suspension movement
● Loss of brake effectiveness, spongy feeling brake pedal or clutch pedal
(vehicles with a manual transmission), pedal almost touches the floor, vehi-
cle pulls to one side when braking
● Engine coolant temperature continually higher than normal
If you notice any of these clues, take your vehicle to any authorized Toyota
retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer as soon as pos-
sible. Your vehicle may need adjustment or repair.

Rotate the tires in the order
shown.
To equalize tire wear and help
extend tire life, Toyota recom-
mends that tire rotation is carried
out approximately every 10000 km
(6000 miles).
When rotating front and rear tires
which have different tire inflation
pressures, do not fail to initialize
the tire pressure warning system
after tire rotation.

Maintenance and care
YARIS_F_OM_Europe_OM52K19E
Your vehicle is equipped with a tire pressure warning system that uses
tire pressure warning valves and transmitters to detect low tire infla-
tion pressure before serious problems arise.
If the tire pressure drops below a predetermined level, the driver is
warned by a warning light. ( P. 580)
When replacing tires or wheels, tire pressure warning valves and
transmitters must also be installed.
When new tire pressure warning valves and transmitters are installed,
new ID codes must be registered in the tire pressure warning com-
puter and the tire pressure warning system must be initialized. Have
tire pressure warning valve and transmitter ID codes registered by
any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any
reliable repairer. ( P. 507)
■The tire pressure warning system must be initialized in the fol-
lowing circumstances:
● When rotating front and rear tires which have different tire infla-
tion pressures
● When the tire inflation pressure is changed such as when chang-
ing traveling speed
● When changing the tire size
When the tire pressure warning system is initialized, the current tire
inflation pressure is set as the benchmark pressure.

■How to initialize the tire pressure warning system
Park the vehicle in a safe place and turn the engine switch to the
“LOCK” position (vehicles without a smart entry & start system)
or off (vehicles with a smart entry & start system).
Initialization cannot be performed while the vehicle is moving.
Adjust the tire inflation pressure to the specified cold tire inflation
pressure level. ( P. 663)
Make sure to adjust the tire pressure to the specified cold tire inflation
pressure level. The tire pressure warning system will operate based on
this pressure level.
Turn the engine switch to the “ON” position (vehicles without a
smart entry & start system) or IGNITION ON mode (vehicles with
a smart entry & start system).
Press and hold the tire pres-
sure warning reset switch
until the tire pressure warn-
ing light blinks slowly 3 times.
Vehicles without a smart entry & start system: Wait for a few min-
utes with the engine switch in the “ON” position and then turn the
engine switch to the “ACC” or “LOCK” position.
Vehicles with a smart entry & start system: Wait for a few minutes
with the engine switch in IGNITION ON mode and then turn the
engine switch off.
