2-4. Fuel and Emission
Fuel-Filler Lid and Cap
WARNING
■When  removing  the  fuel-filler  cap,  loosen  the  cap  slightly  and  wait  for
any hissing to stop, then remove it
Fuel  spray  is  dangerous.  Fuel  can  burn  skin  and  eyes  and  cause  illness  if
ingested. Fuel spray is released when there is pressure in the fuel tank and
the fuel-filler cap is removed too quickly.
■ Before  refueling,  stop  the  engine,  and  always  keep  sparks  and  f lames
away from the filler neck
Fuel  vapor  is  dangerous.  It  could  be  ignited  by  sparks  or  flame s  causing
serious burns and injuries.
Additionally,  use  of  the  incorrect  fuel-filler  cap  or  not  using   a  fuel-filler  cap
may result in a fuel leak, which could result in serious burns  or death in an
accident.
■ Do not continue refueling after  the fuel pump nozzle shuts off automat-
ically
Continuing to add fuel after the fuel pump nozzle has shut off  automatically
is  dangerous  because  overfilling  the  fuel  tank  may  cause  fuel  o verflow  or
leakage. Fuel overflow and leakage could damage the vehicle and  if the fuel
ignites  it  could  cause  a  fire  and  explosion  resulting  in  serious  injury  or
death.
NOTICE
Always use only a genuine Toyota fuel-filler cap or an approved equivalent,
available at your Toyota dealer. The wrong cap can result in a  serious mal-
function of the fuel and emission control systems. 
It may also cause the check engine light in the combination met er to illumi-
nate.

NOTICE
If the check fuel cap warning light illuminates, the fuel-filler cap may not be
properly installed. If the warning light illuminates, park your  vehicle safely off
the right-of-way, remove the fuel-filler cap and reinstall it c orrectly. After the
cap has been correctly installed, the fuel cap warning light ma y continue to
illuminate  until  a  number  of  driving  cycles  have  been  completed.  A  drive
cycle  consists  of  starting  the  engine  (after  four  or  more  hours   with  the
engine off) and driving the vehicle on city and highway roads.
Continuing  to  drive  with  the  check  fuel  cap  warning  light  illum inated  could
cause the check engine light to illuminate as well.

YARIS_YARIS HATCHBACK_OM_OM99V59z_(U)
●Always check tire pressure when tires are cold.
●Warm  tires  normally  exceed  recommended  pressures.  Do  not  releas e
air from warm tires to adjust the pressure.
●Underinflation  can  cause  reduced  fuel  economy,  uneven  and  accel er-
ated  tire  wear,  and  poo r  sealing  of  the  tire  bead,  which  will  d eform  the
wheel and cause separat ion of tire from rim.
●Overinflation  can  produce  a  harsh  ride,  uneven  and  accelerated  tire
wear, and a greater p ossibility of damage from road hazards.
Keep  your  tire  pressure  at  the  correct  levels.  If  one  frequentl y  needs
inflating, have it inspected.
During  rotation,  inspect  them  for
correct balance.
WARNING
■Always inflate the tires to the correct pressure
Overinflation or underinflation o f tires is dangerous. Adverse handling or
unexpected tire failure could result in a serious accident.
Refer to Tires on (P. 553).
■Use only a Toyota-genuine tire valve cap
Use of a non-genuine part is dangerous as the correct tire air  pressure
cannot be maintained if the tire  valve becomes damaged. If the  vehicle
is  driven  under  this  condition,  the  tire  air  pressure  will  decr ease  which
could result in a serious accident. Do not use any part for the  tire valve
cap that is not a Toyota-genuine part.

(TEMPORARY USE ONLY)
