load is large, the battery fluid temperature is excessively low or the bat-
tery has deteriorated.
• The battery fluid temperature is extremely low or high.
• Due to traffic or other circumstances the vehicle is stopped repeatedly,
resulting in the amount of time the engine is stopped by the Stop & Start

YARIS_F_OM_Europe_OM52A54E■The Stop & Start system protection feature
Vehicles without a smart entry & start system
When an excessively loud sound is being projected by the audio system, the
audio system may be automatically cut off in order to maintain power for the
Stop & Start system function.
If this occurs, turning the engine switch to the “LOCK” position then to the
“ACC” or “ON” position re-enables the audio system.
Vehicles with a smart entry & start system
When an excessively loud sound is being projected by the audio system, the
audio system may be automatically cut off in order to maintain power for the
Stop & Start system function.
If this occurs, turning the engine switch off then to ACCESSORY mode or
IGNITION ON mode re-enables the audio system.
■Hood
Even if the hood is closed after the engine is started with the hood open, the
Stop & Start system will not operate. Close the hood, turn the engine switch
off, wait 30 seconds or more, and then start the engine. (P. 241, 243)
Vehicles with a Multidrive: If the hood is opened while the engine is stopped
by the Stop & Start system and the shift lever is in N or P, the engine will
restart.
■When to use the Stop & Start system
When the system does not operate, is canceled, or is malfunctioning, warning
messages (vehicles with color display only) and a warning buzzer are used to
inform the driver. (P. 350)
■Stop & Start system warning buzzer
If the engine is stopped by the Stop & Start system and either of the following
actions is performed, a buzzer will sound and the Stop & Start indicator will
flash (Multidrive), or a buzzer will sound (manual transmission). This indi-
cates that the engine is only stopped by the Stop & Start system, not that the
engine has been turned off completely.
Vehicles with a Multidrive
The driver’s door is opened when the shift lever is in D or M.
Vehicles with a manual transmission
The shift lever is shifted into a position other than N with the clutch pedal
released.

■ Air conditioning system operation while the engine is stopped by the
Stop & Start system
● If the air conditioning system is being used in automatic mode, the fan
speed may be reduced or the fan may be stopped while the engine is
stopped by the Stop & Start system in order to reduce changes in the cabin
temperature.
● To ensure air conditioning system performance when the vehicle is stopped,
disable the Stop & Start system by pressing the Stop & Start cancel switch.

WARNING
■When the Stop & Start system is operating
● Keep the shift lever in N (manual transmission) and apply the brake pedal
or parking brake for safety while the engine is stopped due to the Stop &
Start system (while the Stop & Start indicator is on).
Unexpected accidents may occur due to the automatic engine start func-
tion.
● Do not leave the vehicle while the engine is stopped due to the Stop &
Start system (while the Stop & Start indicator is on).
Unexpected accidents may occur due to the automatic engine start func-
tion.
● Ensure that the engine is not stopped by the Stop & Start system while the
vehicle is in a poorly ventilated area. The engine may restart due to the
automatic engine start function, causing exhaust gases to collect and
enter the vehicle and resulting in death or a serious health hazard.

YARIS_F_OM_Europe_OM52A54E■Operating conditions of hill-start assist control
When the following four conditions are met, 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/backward 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.

●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.
