Active Safety System 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 another 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 damage in the event of a collision. Over reliance on the system leading to the accelerator pedal or brake pedal being mistakenly operated could 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 installed 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 sensor 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 laser 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 visible near the laser sensor, stop using the Low Speed Pre-Collision System immediately and have your vehicle inspected by your Toyota dealer. If the vehicle continues to be driven with cracks or scratch marks left on the windshield near the laser sensor, the system may operate unnec- essarily and cause an unexpected accident. Refer to Stopping The Low Speed Pre-Collision System Operation on P. 232. • When replacing the windshield wipers 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 and may not be able to operate normally. Always drive carefully and pay attention to the road ahead. YARIS_SEDAN_OM_OM99M18z_(U) 3-10. Active Safety System 231 WARNING ■Do not modify the suspension If the vehicle height or inclination is changed, the system will not be able to correctly detect vehicles ahead. This will result in the Low Speed Pre-Colli- sion System not operating normally or mistakenly operating, which could cause a serious accident. ■Turn off the Low Speed Pre-Collision System when the vehicle is run- ning on a chassis roller or being towed Turn off the Low Speed Pre-Collision System to prevent mistaken operation when the vehicle is running on a chassis roller or being towed. Refer to Stopping The Low Speed Pre-Collision System Operation on P. 232. NOTICE ●When driving off-road in areas where there is grass or forage, it is recom- mended that the Low Speed Pre-Collision System be turned off. ●Always use tires for all wheels that are of the specified size, and the same manufacturer, brand, and tread pattern. In addition, do not use tires with significantly different wear patterns on the same vehicle as the Low Speed Pre-Collision System may not operate normally. Low Speed Pre-Collision System Indicator Light (Red) If the Low Speed Pre-Collision System is operating, the indicator light (red) flashes. ●The collision warning beep sounds intermittently while the Low Speed Pre- Collision System brake or brake assist (Low Speed Pre-Collision System brake assist) is operating. ●If the vehicle is stopped by the Low Speed Pre-Collision System operation and the brake pedal is not depressed, the warning beep sounds one time after about 2 seconds and the Low Speed Pre-Collision System brake is automatically released. YARIS_SEDAN_OM_OM99M18z_(U) 232 3-10. Active Safety System Stopping the Low Speed Pre-Collision System Operation The Low Speed Pre-Collision System can be temporarily deactivated. When the Low Speed Pre-Colli- sion System is turned off, the Low Speed Pre-Collision System OFF indicator light turns on. When the engine is restarted, the system becomes operational.  Without Low Speed Pre-Collision System OFF switch Refer to Customizable Features on P. 598.  With Low Speed Pre-Collision System OFF switch Press the Low Speed Pre-Colli- sion System OFF switch to turn off the system.

Active Safety System 233 Laser Sensor The Low Speed Pre-Collision System laser sensor is installed at the top of the windshield near the rearview mirror. Always keep the surface of the windshield around the laser sen- sor clean to assure proper opera- tion of the Low Speed Pre- Collision System. WARNING ■As there is the possibility of eye damage occurring from the laser, always heed the following precautions ●Never remove the sensor. ●A removed sensor will not meet the conditions for a class 1M laser under the IEC 60825-1 specification and therefore eye safety cannot be assured. ●Do not peer into the sensor using optical instruments with a magnification function such as magnifying glasses, and microscopic and objective lenses within a distance of 3.94 in. (100 mm) from the sensor. : If equipped YARIS_SEDAN_OM_OM99M18z_(U) 234 3-10.

Active Safety System 235 Radar Sensors (Rear) Your vehicle is equipped with radar sensors (rear). The following systems also use the radar sensors (rear). ● Blind Spot Monitoring system (BSM) ● Rear Cross Traffic Alert (RCTA) The radar sensors (rear) function by detecting the radio waves reflected off a vehicle approaching from the rear or an obstruc- tion sent from the radar sensor. The radar sensors (rear) are installed inside the rear bumper, one each on the left and right sides. Radar sensors (rear) Always keep the surface of the rear bumper near the radar sensors (rear) clean so that the radar sensors (rear) operate normally. Also, do not apply items such as stickers. Refer to Exterior Care on P. 492. ●The detection ability of the radar sensors (rear) has limitations. In the follow- ing cases, the detection ability may lower and the system may not operate normally. • The rear bumper near the radar sensors (rear) has become deformed. • Snow, ice or mud adheres to the radar sensors (rear) on the rear bumper. • Under bad weather conditions such as rain, snow and fog. ●Under the following conditions, the radar sensors (rear) cannot detect target objects or it may be difficult to detect them. • Stationary objects on a road or a road side such as small, two-wheeled vehicles, bicycles, pedestrians, animals, and shopping carts. • Vehicle shapes which do not reflect radar waves well such as empty trail- ers with a low vehicle height and sports cars. : If equipped YARIS_SEDAN_OM_OM99M18z_(U) 236 3-10. Active Safety System ●Vehicles are shipped with the direction of the radar sensors (rear) adjusted for each vehicle to a loaded vehicle condition so that the radar sensors (rear) detect approaching vehicles correctly. If the direction of the radar sen- sors (rear) has deviated for some reason, have the vehicle inspected at your Toyota dealer. ●For repairs or replacement of the radar sensors (rear), or bumper repairs, paintwork, and replacement near the radar sensors, consult your Toyota dealer. ●Turn off the system while pulling a trailer or while an accessory such as a bicycle carrier is installed to the rear of the vehicle. Otherwise, the radio waves emitted by the radar will be blocked causing the system to not oper- ate normally. ●The radar sensors are regulated by the relevant radio wave laws of the country in which the vehicle is driven. If the vehicle is driven abroad, autho- rization from the country in which the vehicle is driven may be required. NOTICE If the rear bumper receives a severe impact, the system may no longer operate normally. Stop the system immediately and have the vehicle inspected at your Toyota dealer.

Cruise Control 241 To Resume Cruising Speed at More Than 16 mph (25 km/h) If some other method besides the OFF switch was used to cancel cruising speed (such as applying the brake pedal) and the system is still activated, the most recent set speed will automatically resume when the RESUME switch is pressed. If vehicle speed is below 16 mph (25 km/h), increase the vehicle speed up to 16 mph (25 km/h) or more and press the RESUME switch. To Temporarily Cancel To temporarily cancel the system, use one of these methods: ● Slightly depress the brake pedal. ● Manual transaxle: Depress the clutch pedal. ● Press the CANCEL switch. If the RESUME switch is pressed when the vehicle speed is 16 mph (25 km/h) or higher, the system reverts to the previously set speed. ●If any of the following conditions occur, the cruise control system is tempo- rarily canceled. • The parking brake is applied. • Manual transaxle: The shift lever is in the neutral position. • Automatic transaxle: The selector lever is in the P or N position. ●When the cruise control system is temporarily canceled by even one of the applicable cancel conditions, the speed cannot be re-set. ●Automatic transaxle: The cruise control cannot be cancelled while driving in manual mode (selec- tor lever shifted from D to M position). Therefore, engine braking will not be applied even if the transaxle is shifted down to a lower gear. If deceleration is required, lower the set speed or depress the brake pedal. To Deactivate To deactivate the system, press the OFF switch. YARIS_SEDAN_OM_OM99M18z_(U) 242 3-12. Tire Pressure Monitoring System Tire Pressure Monitoring System The Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) monitors the air pressure of all four tires. If the air pressure of one or more tires is too low, the system warns the driver by indicating the tire pressure monitoring system warning light in the combination meter and operating a beep sound. The system monitors the tire pres- sures indirectly using the data sent from the ABS wheel speed sensors. ABS wheel speed sensor To allow the system to operate correctly, the system needs to be ini- tialized with the specified tire pressure (value on the tire pressure label). Follow the procedure and perform the initialization. Refer to Tire Pressure Monitoring System Initialization on P. 245. The warning light flashes when the system has a malfunction. Refer to Warning Lights on P. 165. : If equipped YARIS_SEDAN_OM_OM99M18z_(U) 3 3-12. Tire Pressure Monitoring System 243 Because this system detects slight changes in tire conditions, the timing of the warning may be faster or slower in the following cases: ●The size, manufacturer, or the type of tires is different from the specifica- tion. ●The size, manufacturer, or the type of a tire is different from the others, or the level of tire wear is excessively different between them. ●A run-flat tire, studless tire, snow tire, or tire chains are used. ●An emergency tire is used (The tire pressure monitoring system warning light may flash and then continue illuminating). ●A tire is repaired using the emergency flat tire repair kit. ●The tire pressure is excessively higher than the specified pressure, or the tire pressure is suddenly lowered for some reason such as a tire burst during driving. ●The vehicle speed is lower than about 9.3 mph (15 km/h) (including when the vehicle is stopped), or the drive period is shorter than 5 min- utes. ●The vehicle is driven on an extremely rough road or a slippery, icy road. ●Hard steering and rapid acceleration/deceleration are repeated such as during aggressive driving on a winding road. ●Load on the vehicle is applied to a tire such as by loading heavy luggage to one side of the vehicle. ●System initialization has not been implemented with the specified tire pressure. YARIS_SEDAN_OM_OM99M18z_(U) 244 3-12. Tire Pressure Monitoring System 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 vehicle 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 inflation pressure label, you should deter- mine the proper tire inflation 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 under- inflated. Accordingly, when the low tire pressure telltale illuminates, you should stop and check your tires as soon as possible, and inflate them to the proper pressure. Driving on a significantly under-inflated 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 and stopping ability. Please note that the TPMS is not a substitute for proper tire mainte- nance, and it is the driver’s responsibility to maintain correct tire pres- sure, even if under-inflation has not reached the level to trigger illumination of the TPMS low tire pressure telltale. Your vehicle has also been equipped with a TPMS malfunction indica- tor to indicate when the system is not operating properly. The TPMS malfunction indicator is combined with the low tire pressure telltale. When the system detects a malfunction, the telltale will flash for approximately one minute and then remain continuously illumi- nated. This sequence will continue upon subsequent vehicle start-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 properly. Always check the TPMS malfunction telltale after replacing one or more tires or wheels on your vehicle to ensure that the replacement or alternate tires and wheels allow the TPMS to continue to function prop- erly. ●To avoid false readings, the system samples for a little while before indicating a problem. As a result it will not instantaneously register a rapid tire deflation or blow out. YARIS_SEDAN_OM_OM99M18z_(U) 3 3-12. Tire Pressure Monitoring System 245 Tire Pressure Monitoring System Initialization In the following cases, system initialization must be performed so that the system operates normally. ● A tire pressure is adjusted. ● Tire rotation is performed. ● A tire or wheel is replaced. ● The battery is replaced or completely drained. ● The tire pressure monitoring system warning light is illuminated. ■ Initialization method Park the car in a safe place and firmly apply the parking brake. Let the tires cool, then adjust the tire pressure of all four (4) tires to the specified pressure indicated on the tire pressure label located on the door jamb of the driver’s door (door open). Refer to Tires on P. 596. Switch the ignition ON. While the vehicle is parked, press and hold the tire pres- sure monitoring system set switch and verify that the tire pressure monitoring system warning light in the combina- tion meter flashes twice and a beep sound is heard once. NOTICE If the system initialization is performed without adjusting the tire pres- sure, the system cannot detect the normal tire pressure and it may not illuminate the tire pressure monitoring system warning light even if a tire pressure is low, or it may illuminate the light even if the pressures are normal. Adjust the tire pressure on all four tires and initialize the system when the warning light is turned on. If the warning light turns on for a reason other than a flat tire, the tire pressure of all four tires may have decreased naturally. The system initialization will not be performed if the switch is pressed while the vehicle is being driven. YARIS_SEDAN_OM_OM99M18z_(U) 246 3-13. Rear View Monitor Rear View Monitor The rear view monitor provides visual images of the rear of the vehicle when reversing. ●If water, snow, or mud is stuck on the camera lens, wipe it off using a soft cloth. If it cannot be wiped off, use a mild detergent. ●If the camera temperature changes rapidly (Hot to cold, cold to hot), the rear view monitor may not operate correctly. ●When replacing the tires, consult your Toyota dealer.

Audio System Antenna Embedded Type (if equipped) The antenna is embedded into the window glass. NOTICE When washing the inside of the window which has an antenna, use a soft cloth dampened in lukewarm water, gently wiping the antenna lines. Use of glass cleaning products could damage the antenna. ●To prevent damage to the antenna, remove it before entering a car wash facility or passing beneath a low overhead clearance. ●Be careful around the antenna when removing snow from the roof. Other- wise the antenna could be damaged. YARIS_SEDAN_OM_OM99M18z_(U) 4-2. Audio System 269 Operating Tips for Audio System Do not spill any liquid on the audio system. Do not insert any objects, other than CDs, into the slot. ●To prevent the battery from being discharged, do not leave the audio system on for a long period of time when the engine is not running. ●If a cellular phone or CB radio is used in or near the vehicle, it could cause noise to occur from the audio system, however, this does not indicate that the system has been damaged. WARNING ■Always adjust the audio while the vehicle is stopped Do not adjust the audio control switches while driving the vehicle. Adjusting the audio while driving the vehicle is dangerous as it could distract your attention from the vehicle operation which could lead to a serious accident. Even if the audio control switches are equipped on the steering wheel, learn to use the switches without looking down at them so that you can keep your maximum attention on the road while driving the vehicle. NOTICE For the purposes of safe driving, adjust the audio volume to a level that allows you to hear sounds outside of the vehicle including car horns and particularly emergency vehicle sirens. YARIS_SEDAN_OM_OM99M18z_(U) 270 4-2. Audio System Radio Reception ■ AM characteristics AM signals bend around such things as buildings or mountains and bounce off the ionosphere. Therefore, they can reach longer distances than FM signals. Because of this, two stations may sometimes be picked up on the same frequency at the same time. Ionosphere Station 2 Station 1 ■ FM characteristics An FM broadcast range is usually about 25 - 30 miles (40 - 50 km) from the source. Because of extra coding needed to break the sound into two channels, stereo FM has even less range than mon- aural (non-stereo) FM. FM Station 25 - 30 miles (40 - 50 km) YARIS_SEDAN_OM_OM99M18z_(U) 4-2. Audio System 271 Signals from an FM transmitter are similar to beams of light because they do not bend around corners, but they do reflect. Unlike AM signals, FM signals cannot travel beyond the horizon. Therefore, FM stations cannot be received at the great distances possible with AM reception. FM wave Ionosphere AM wave 60 - 120 miles (100 - 200 km) Atmospheric conditions can also affect FM reception. High humidity will cause poor reception. However, cloudy days may provide better reception than clear days. YARIS_SEDAN_OM_OM99M18z_(U) 272 4-2. Audio System ● Multipath noise Since FM signals can be reflected by obstructions, it is possible to receive both the direct signal and the reflected signal at the same time. This causes a slight delay in reception and may be heard as a broken sound or a distortion. This problem may also be encountered when in close proximity to the transmitter. Direct Reflected wave ● Flutter/Skip noise Signals from an FM transmit- ter move in straight lines and become weak in valleys between tall buildings, moun- tains, and other obstacles. When a vehicle passes through such an area, the reception conditions may change suddenly, resulting in annoying noise. ● Weak signal noise become In suburban areas, broadcast signals weak because of distance from the transmitter. Reception in such fringe areas is charac- terized by sound breakup. YARIS_SEDAN_OM_OM99M18z_(U) 4-2. Audio System 273 ● Strong signal noise This occurs very close to a transmitter tower. The broad- cast signals are extremely strong, so the result is noise and sound breakup at the radio receiver. ● Station drift noise When a vehicle reaches the area of two strong stations broad- casting at similar frequencies, the original station may be tempo- rarily lost and the second station picked up. At this time there will be some noise from this disturbance. Station 1 88.1 MHz Station 2 88.3 MHz Operating Tips for CD Player ■ Condensation phenomenon Immediately after turning on the heater when the vehicle is cold, the CD or optical components (prism and lens) in the CD player may become clouded with condensation. At this time, the CD will eject immediately when placed in the unit. A clouded CD can be corrected simply by wiping it with a soft cloth. Clouded optical components will clear naturally in about an hour. Wait for normal operation to return before attempting to use the unit. YARIS_SEDAN_OM_OM99M18z_(U) 274 4-2. Audio System ■ Handling the CD player The following precautions should be observed. ● Do not use deformed or cracked CDs. The disc may not eject resulting in a mal- function. ● Do not use non-conventional discs such as heart-shaped, octagonal discs, etc. The disc may not eject result- ing in a malfunction. ● If the memory portion of the CD is transparent or translu- cent, do not use the disc. Transparent YARIS_SEDAN_OM_OM99M18z_(U) 4-2. Audio System 275 ● A new CD may have rough edges on its inner and outer perimeters. If a disc with rough edges is used, proper setting will not be possible and the CD player will not play the CD. In addition, the disc may not eject resulting in a malfunction. Remove the rough edges in advance by using a ball-point pen or pencil as shown below. To remove the rough edges, rub the side of the pen or pencil against the inner and outer perimeter of the CD. ● When driving over uneven the sound may surfaces, jump. the ● CDs bearing the logo shown in illustration can be played. No other discs can be played. ● Use discs that have been legitimately produced. If illegally-cop- ied discs such as pirated discs are used, the system may not operate properly. YARIS_SEDAN_OM_OM99M18z_(U) 276 4-2. Audio System ● Be sure never to touch the signal surface when handling the CDs. Pick up a CD by grasping the outer edge or the edge of the hole and the outer edge. ● Do not stick paper or tape on the CD. Avoid scratching the reverse side (the side without a label). The disc may not eject resulting in a malfunction. ● Dust, finger smudges, and dirt can decrease the amount of light reflected from the signal surface, thus affecting sound quality. If the CD should become soiled, gently wipe it with a soft cloth from the center of the CD to the edge. ● Do not use record sprays, antistatic agents, or household spray cleaners. Volatile chemicals such as benzine and thinner can also damage the surface of the CD and must not be used. Any- thing that can damage, warp, or fog plastic should never be used to clean CDs. ● The CD player ejects the CD if the CD is inserted upside down. Also dirty and/ or defective CDs may be ejected. ● Do not insert cleaning discs in the CD player. ● Do not insert any disc with a peel-off seal affixed to it. ● This unit may not be able to play certain CD-R/CD-RWs made using a computer or music CD recorder due to disc characteris- tics, scratches, smudges, dirt, etc., or due to dust or condensa- tion on the lens inside the unit. ● Storing CDs in the vehicle exposed to direct sunlight or high tem- perature may damage the CD-R/CD-RWs, and make them unplayable. ● CD-R/CD-RW exceeding 700 MB cannot be played. YARIS_SEDAN_OM_OM99M18z_(U) 4-2. Audio System 277 ● This unit may not be able to play certain discs made using a computer due to the application (writing software) setting used. (For details, consult the store where the application was pur- chased.) ● It is possible that certain text data, such as titles, recorded on a CD-R/CD-RW may not be displayed when musical data (CD-DA) is playing. ● The period from when a CD-RW is inserted to when it begins playing is longer than a normal CD or CD-R. ● Completely read the instruction manual and cautions for CD-R/ CD-RWs. ● Do not use discs with cellophane tape adhering, partially peeled off labels, or adhesive material exuding from the edges of the CD label. Also, do not use discs with a commercially-available CD-R label affixed. The disc may not eject resulting in a malfunction.
