3-10. Active Safety System
Low Speed Pre-Collision System
The  Low  Speed  Pre-Collision  System  is  designed  to  reduce
damage in the event of a colli sion by operating the brake control
(Low  Speed  Pre-Collision  System  brake)  when  the  system’s
laser sensor detects a vehicle a head and determines that a colli-
sion with a vehicle ahead is unavo idable. It may also be possible
to  avoid  a  collision  if  the  relat ive  speed  between  your  vehicle
and a vehicle ahead is less  than about 12 mph (20 km/h).
In addition, when the driver depresses the brake pedal while th e
system  is  in  the  operation  range  at  about  2  to  18  mph  (4  to
30 km/h),  the  brakes  are  applied  firmly  and  quickly  to  assist.

When Driving
WARNING
■Do not rely on the Low Speed Pre -Collision System as a substitute for
safer driving
The  Low  Speed  Pre-Collision  System  cannot  compensate  for  unsafe   and
reckless  driving,  excessive  speed,  tailgating  (following  anothe r  vehicle  too
closely),  and  driving  on  slippery  roads  such  as  wet,  snowy,  and   icy  roads
(reduced  tire  friction  and  road  contact  because  of  water  on  the   road  sur-
face). You can still have an accident.
■ Do not rely completely on the  Low Speed Pre-Collision System
● The Low Speed Pre-Collision System is only designed to reduce d amage
in  the  event  of  a  collision.  Over  reliance  on  the  system  leadin g  to  the
accelerator pedal or brake pedal being mistakenly operated coul d result in
an accident.
● The  Low  Speed  Pre-Collision  System  is  a  system  which  operates  in
response  to  a  vehicle  ahead.  The  system  may  not  be  able  to  detect  or
react to two-wheeled vehicles or pedestrians.
● The laser sensor for the Low Speed Pre-Collision System is inst alled near
the rearview mirror. To assure the correct operation of the Low  Speed Pre-
Collision System, heed the following cautions.
• Do  not  apply  stickers  to  the  surface  of  the  windshield  near  the  laser sensor  (including  transparent  stickers).  Otherwise,  the  laser  s ensor
may not be able to detect vehicles ahead which could result in  an acci-
dent.
• Do not apply coating agent to the windshield. Otherwise, the l aser sen-
sor  may  not  be  able  to  detect  vehicles  or  obstructions  in  front  which
could result in an accident.
• Do not disassemble the laser sensor.
• If  cracks  or  damage  caused  by  flying  gravel  or  debris  is  visib le  near
the  laser  sensor,  stop  using  the   Low  Speed  Pre-Collision  System
immediately and have your vehicle inspected by your Toyota deal er. If
the vehicle continues to be driven with cracks or scratch marks left on
the windshield near the laser sensor, the system may operate un nec-
essarily and cause an unexpected accident.
Refer to Stopping The Low Speed Pre-Collision System Operation  on
P.   2 3 3 .
• When  replacing  the  windshield  wi pers  or  windshield,  consult  your
Toyota dealer.
● The laser sensor includes a function for detecting a soiled windshield and
informing  the  driver,  however,  depending  on  the  conditions,  it  may  not
detect  plastic  shopping  bags,  ice  or  snow  on  the  windshield.  In  such
cases,  the  system  cannot  accurately  determine  a  vehicle  ahead a nd  may
not be able to operate normally. Always drive carefully and pay  attention to
the road ahead. 

4465-4. Appearance Care
YARIS_YARIS HATCHBACK_OM_OM99V59z_(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 fin ishes.
■ 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,  releasin g  the
accelerator  pedal  and  lightly  applying  the  brakes  several  times  until
the brake performance returns to normal
Driving  with  wet  brakes  is  dangerous.  Increased  stopping  distan ce  or  the
vehicle pulling to  one  side  when braking  could  result in  a  seri ous accident.
Light braking will indicate whether the brakes have been affect ed.
NOTICE
●When  the  wiper  lever  is  in  the AUTO  position  and  the  ignition  is  switched
ON, the wipers may move automatically in the following cases:
• If the windshield above the rain sensor is touched or wiped with a cloth.
• If the windshield is struck with a hand or other object from e ither outside
or inside the vehicle.
Keep hands and scrapers clear of the windshield when the wiper lever is
in  the AUTO  position and  the  ignition is switched  ON  as fingers could  be
pinched  or  the  wipers  and  wiper  blades  damaged  when  the  wipers  acti-
vate automatically.
If you are going to clean the windshield, be sure the wipers ar e turned off
completely (when it is most likely that the engine is left runn ing) this is par-
ticularly important when clearing ice and snow.
● Do not spray water in the engine compartment. Otherwise, it cou ld result in
engine-starting problems or damage to electrical parts.
● When  washing  and  waxing  the  vehicle,  be  careful  not  to  apply  ex cessive
force to any single area of the vehicle roof or the antenna. Otherwise, you
could dent the vehicle or damage the antenna.
● 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  a nd  deter-
gents may discolor or deteriorate the paint.
