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.

When Driving
NOTICE
●Each tire, including the spare (if provided), should be checked  monthly
when  cold  and  inflated  to  the  inflation  pressure  recommended  by  the
vehicle  manufacturer  on  the  vehi cle  placard  or  tire  inflation  pressure
label. (If your vehicle has tires of a different size than the  size indicated
on the vehicle placard or tire i nflation pressure label, you sh ould deter-
mine the proper tire inflati on pressure for those tires.)
As an added safety feature, your vehicle has been equipped with  a tire
pressure  monitoring  system  (TPMS )  that  illuminates  a  low  tire  pres-
sure  telltale  when  one  or  more  of  your  tires  is  significantly  u nder-
inflated.  Accordingly,  when  the   low  tire  pressure  telltale  illuminates,
you  should  stop  and  check  your  tires  as  soon as  possible,  and  i nflate
them  to  the  proper  pressure.  Driving  on  a  significantly  under-i nflated
tire causes the tire to overheat and can lead to tire failure.  Under-infla-
tion  also  reduces  fuel  efficiency  and  tire  tread  life,  and  may  affect  the
vehicle’s handling an d stopping ability.
Please  note  that  the  TPMS  is  not  a  substitute  for  proper  tire  m ainte-
nance, and it is the driver’s r esponsibility to maintain correc t tire pres-
sure,  even  if  under-inflation  has  not  reached  the  level  to  trig ger
illumination of the TPMS lo w tire pressure telltale.
Your vehicle has also been equipped with a TPMS malfunction ind ica-
tor to indicate when the syste m is not operating properly.
The TPMS malfunction indicator i s combined with the low tire pressure
telltale.  When  the  system  detects  a  malfunction,  the  telltale  will  flash
for  approximately  one  minute  an d  then  remain  continuously  illumi-
nated. This sequence will continue upon subsequent vehicle star t-ups
as  long  as  the  malfunction  exists .  When  the  malfunction  indicator  is
illuminated,  the  system  may  not  be  able  to  detect  or  signal  low tire
pressure  as  intended.  TPMS  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 from functioning pr operly.
Always  check  the  TPMS  malfunction  telltale  after  replacing  one  or
more tires or wheels on your veh icle to ensure that the replacement or
alternate tires and wheels allow the TPMS to continue to functi on prop-
erly.
●To  avoid  false  readings,  the  system  samples  for  a  little  while  before
indicating  a  problem. As  a  res ult  it  will  not  instantaneously  register  a
rapid tire deflation or blow out.

Owner Maintenance Precautions
The owner or a qualified service technician should make these vehicle
inspections  at  the  indicated  intervals  to  ensure  safe  and  depen dable
operation.
Bring  any  problem  to  the  attention  of  your  Toyota  dealer  or  qua lified
service technician a s soon as possible.
■When Refueling
• Brake and clutch fluid level ( P. 401)
• Engine coolant level ( P.   3 9 8 )
• Engine oil level ( P. 397)
• Washer fluid level ( P. 402)
■At Least Monthly
• Tire inflation pressures ( P. 413)
■At Least Twice a Year (For Exam ple, Every Spring and Fall)
You can do the following scheduled maintenance items if you hav e
some mechanical ability and a few basic tools and if you closel y fol-
low the directions  in this manual.
• Engine coolant ( P. 398)
• Engine oil ( P. 395)
Improper  or  incomplete  service  may  result  in  problems.  This  sec tion
gives instructions only for it ems that are easy to perform.
As explained in the Introduction ( P. 386), several procedures can be
done only by a qualifi ed service technician with special tools.
Improper  owner  maintenance  during  the  warranty  period  may  affec t
warranty  coverage.  Refer  to  Introduction  ( P.  386)  for  owner’s
responsibility in protecting your  investment. For details, read the sep-
arate Toyota Warranty and Maintenance Guide provided with the v ehi-
cle. If you are unsure about any servicing or maintenance proce dure,
have it done by your Toyota dealer.
There are strict environmental laws regarding the disposal of w aste oil
and fluids. Please dispose of your waste properly and with due  regard
to the environment.
We recommend that you entrust the oil and fluid changes of your vehi-
cle to your Toyota dealer.

Maintenance and Care
Tires
Inspect all tire pressures monthly (including the spare) when the tires
are  cold.  Maintain  recommended  pressures  for  the  best  ride,  han -
dling, and minimum tire wear.
Refer to the spec ification charts
 (P.   5 5 3).
With tire pressure m onitoring system: 
After adjusting the tire pressur e, initialization of the tire p ressure mon-
itoring system is necessary to m ake the system operate normally .
Refer to Tire Pressure Monitorin g System Initialization on P. 244.
For reasons of proper performan ce, safety, and better fuel econ-
omy, always maintain recommended tire inflation pressures and
stay  within  the  recommended  load  limits  and  weight  distribu-
tion.
WARNING
■Using Different Tire Types
Driving  your  vehicle  with  differ ent  types  of  tires  is  dangerous .  It  could
cause poor handling and poor bra king; leading to loss of control.
Except for the limited use of the temporary spare tire, use onl y the same
type tires (radial, bi as-belted, bias-type) on all four wheels.
■Using Wrong-Sized Tires
Using any other tire size than wh at is specified for the vehicle (P.   5 5 3 )
is dangerous. It could seriously affect ride, handling, ground  clearance,
tire  clearance,  and  speedometer  calibration.  This  could  cause  y ou  to
have  an  accident.  Use  only  tires  that  are  the  correct  size  spec ified  for
the vehicle.
Tire Inflation Pressure 

4145-3. Owner Maintenance
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.
