YARIS_F_OM_Europe_OM52K19E
WARNING
Observe the following precautions.
Failure to do so may result in death or serious injury.
■ When driving on slippery road surfaces
● Sudden braking, acceleration and steering may cause tire slippage and
reduce your ability to control the vehicle.
● Sudden acceleration, engine braking due to shifting, or changes in engine
speed could cause the vehicle to skid.
● After driving through a puddle, depress the brake pedal to make sure that
the brakes are functioning properly. Wet brake pads may prevent the
brakes from functioning properly. If the brakes on only one side are wet
and not functioning properly, steering control may be affected.
■ When shifting the shift lever
● On vehicles with a Multidrive, do not let the vehicle roll backward while the
shift lever is in a driving position, or roll forward while the shift lever is in R.
Doing so may cause the engine to stall or lead to poor brake and steering
performance, resulting in an accident or damage to the vehicle.
● On vehicles with a Multidrive, do not shift the shift lever to P while the vehi-
cle is moving. Doing so can damage the transmission and may result in a
loss of vehicle control.
● Do not shift the shift lever to R while the vehicle is moving forward.
Doing so can damage the transmission and may result in a loss of vehicle
control.
● Do not shift the shift lever to a driving position while the vehicle is moving
backward. Doing so can damage the transmission and may result in a loss
of vehicle control.
● Shifting the shift lever to N while the vehicle is moving will disengage the
engine from the transmission. Engine braking is not available when N is
selected.
● On vehicles with a Multidrive, be careful not to shift the shift lever with the
accelerator pedal depressed. Shifting the shift lever to a gear other than P
or N may lead to unexpected rapid acceleration of the vehicle that may
cause an accident and result in death or serious injury.

YARIS_F_OM_Europe_OM52K19E
■Deactivation of the temporally gear steps selection mode in the D posi-
tion
In the following situations, temporally gear steps selection mode in the D
position will be deactivated:
● When the vehicle comes to a stop
● If the accelerator pedal is depressed for more than a certain period of time in
one gear step
● When the “+” paddle shift switch is held down for a period of time
■ When driving with the cruise control activated (if equipped)
Even when performing the following actions with the intent of enabling engine
braking, engine braking will not activate because cruise control will not be
canceled.
• While driving in D or 7-speed sport sequential shiftmatic mode, down-
shifting to 6, 5, or 4. ( P. 257)
• When switching the driving mode to sport mode while driving in D posi-
tion. ( P. 256)
■ When the vehicle comes to a stop with the shift lever in the M position
● The transmission will automatically downshift to M1 once the vehicle is
stopped.
● After a stop, the vehicle will start off in M1.
● When the vehicle is stopped, the transmission is set at M1.
■ Shift lock system
The shift lock system is a system to prevent accidental operation of the shift
lever in starting.
The shift lever can be shifted from P only when the engine switch is in the
“ON” position and the brake pedal is being depressed.

To change the set speed, operate the lever until the desired set speed
is obtained.
Increases the speed
Decreases the speed
Fine adjustment: Momentarily
move the lever in the desired direc-
tion.
Large adjustment: Hold the lever in
the desired direction.
The set speed will be increased or decreased as follows:
Fine adjustment: By approximately 1.6 km/h (1 mph) each time the lever is
operated.
Large adjustment: The set speed can be increased or decreased continu-
ally until the lever is released.
Pulling the lever toward you
cancels the constant speed
control.
The speed setting is also canceled
when the brakes are applied or the
clutch pedal (manual transmission
only) is depressed.
Pushing the lever up resumes
the constant speed control.
Resuming is available when the vehicle speed is more than approximately
40 km/h (25 mph).

■Cruise control can be set when
Vehicles with a Multidrive
● The shift lever is in the D or range 4 or higher of M has been selected.
● Range 4 or higher has been selected by using the paddle shift.
● Vehicle speed is above approximately 40 km/h (25 mph).
Vehicles with a manual transmission
● Vehicle speed is above approximately 40 km/h (25 mph).
■ Accelerating after setting the vehicle speed
● The vehicle can be accelerated normally. After acceleration, the set speed
resumes.
● Even without canceling the cruise control, the set speed can be increased
by first accelerating the vehicle to the desired speed and then pushing the
lever down to set the new speed.
■ Automatic cruise control cancelation
Cruise control will stop maintaining the vehicle speed in any of the following
situations.
● Actual vehicle speed falls more than approximately 16 km/h (10 mph) below
the preset vehicle speed.
At this time, the memorized set speed is not retained.
● Actual vehicle speed is below approximately 40 km/h (25 mph).
● VSC is activated (if equipped).
● Speed limiter is activated (if equipped).

■ Operating conditions of hill-start assist control
When the following four conditions are me t, the hill-start assist control will
operate:
● Vehicles with Multidrive: The shift lever is in a position other than P or N
(when starting off forward/bac kward on an upward incline).
● Vehicles with manual transmission: The shift lever is in a position other than
R when starting off forward on an upward incline, or the shift lever is in R
when starting off backward on an upward incline.
● The vehicle is stopped.
● The accelerator pedal is not depressed.
● The parking brake is not engaged.
■ Automatic system cancelation of hill-start assist control
The hill-start assist control will turn off in any of the following situations:
● Vehicles with Multidrive: The shift lever is shifted to P or N.
● Vehicles with manual transmission: The shift lever is shifted to R when start-
ing off forward on an upward incline, or the shift lever is shifted to other than
R when starting off backward on an upward incline.
● The accelerator pedal is depressed.
● Approximately 2 seconds elapse.
● 2 seconds at maximum elapsed after the brake pedal is released.
■ Sounds and vibrations caused by the ABS, brake assist, VSC, TRC, and
hill-start assist control systems
● A sound may be heard from the engine compartment when the brake pedal
is depressed repeatedly, when the engine is started or just after the vehicle
begins to move. This sound does not indicate that a malfunction has
occurred in any of these systems.
● Any of the following conditions may occur when the above systems are
operating. None of these indicates that a malfunction has occurred.
• Vibrations may be felt through the vehicle body and steering.
• A motor sound may be heard also after the vehicle comes to a stop.
• The brake pedal may pulsate slightly after the ABS is activated.
• The brake pedal may move down slightly after the ABS is activated.
