For your information

Main Owner’s Manual

Please note that this manual applies to all models and all equipment, includ-

ing options. Therefore, you may find some explanations for equipment not

installed on your vehicle.

All specifications provided in this manual are current at the time of printing.

However, because of the Toyota policy of continual product improvement, we

reserve the right to make changes at any time without notice.

Depending on specifications, the vehicle shown in the illustrations may differ

from your vehicle in terms of equipment.

Accessories, spare parts and modification of your Toyota

Both genuine Toyota and a wide variety of other spare parts and accessories

for Toyota vehicles are currently available on the market. Should it be

determined that any of the genuine Toyota parts or accessories supplied with

the vehicle need to be replaced, Toyota recommends that genuine Toyota

parts or accessories, be used to replace them. Other parts or accessories of

matching quality can also be used. Toyota cannot accept any liability or

guarantee spare parts and accessories which are not genuine Toyota

products, nor for replacement or installation involving such parts. In addition,

damage or performance problems resulting from the use of non-genuine

Toyota spare parts or accessories may not be covered under warranty.

YARIS_HB_WE_52A70E

Installation of a RF-transmitter system

The installation of an RF-transmitter system in your vehicle could affect elec-

tronic systems such as:

 Multiport fuel injection system/sequential multiport fuel injection system

 Cruise control system (if equipped)

 Anti-lock brake system

 SRS airbag system

 Seat belt pretensioner system

Be sure to check with any authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another

duly qualified and equipped professional for precautionary measures or spe-

cial instructions regarding installation of an RF-transmitter system.

Further information regarding frequency bands, power levels, antenna posi-

tions and installation provisions for the installation of RF-transmitters, is

available on request at any authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another

duly qualified and equipped professional.

Scrapping of your Toyota

The SRS airbag and seat belt pretensioner devices in your Toyota contain

explosive chemicals. If the vehicle is scrapped with the airbags and seat belt

pretensioners left as they are, this may cause an accident such as fire. Be

sure to have the systems of the SRS airbag and seat belt pretensioner

removed and disposed of by a qualified service shop or by any authorized

Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped profes-

sional, before you scrap your vehicle.

YARIS_HB_WE_52A70E

Vehicle control and operation data recording

Your Toyota is equipped with sophisticated computers that record certain

information about your vehicle’s operation, such as:

• Engine speed

• Accelerator status

• Brake status

• Vehicle speed

• Shift position (except manual transmission)

The data recorded varies according to the grade level and options the vehi-

cle is equipped with. The computers do not record conversations, sound or

pictures.

 Data usage

Toyota may use the data recorded in these computers to diagnose malfunc-

tions, conduct research and development, and improve quality.

Toyota will not disclose the recorded data to a third party except:

• With the consent of the vehicle owner or with the consent of the lessee if

the vehicle is leased

• In response to an official request by the police, a court of law or a govern-

ment agency

• For research purposes where the data is not tied to a specific vehicle or

vehicle owner

 Event data recorder

This vehicle is equipped with an event data recorder (EDR). The main pur-

pose of an EDR is to record, in certain crash or near crash-like situations,

such as an air bag deployment or hitting a road obstacle, data that will assist

in understanding how a vehicle’s systems performed. The EDR is designed

to record data related to vehicle dynamics and safety systems for a short

period of time, typically 30 seconds or less.

The EDR in this vehicle is designed to record such data as:

• How various systems in your vehicle were operating;

• How far (if at all) the driver was depressing the accelerator and/or brake

pedal; and,

• How fast the vehicle was traveling.

YARIS_HB_WE_52A70E

These data can help provide a better understanding of the circumstances in

which crashes and injuries occur.

NOTE: EDR data are recorded by your vehicle only if a non-trivial crash situ-

ation occurs; no data are recorded by the EDR under normal driving condi-

tions and no personal data (e.g., name, gender, age, and crash location) are

recorded. However, other parties, such as law enforcement, could combine

the EDR data with the type of personally identifying data routinely acquired

during a crash investigation.

To read data recorded by an EDR, special equipment is required, and access

to the vehicle or the EDR is needed. In addition to the vehicle manufacturer,

other parties, such as law enforcement, that have the special equipment, can

read the information if they have access to the vehicle or the EDR.

 Disclosure of the EDR data

Toyota will not disclose the data recorded in an EDR to a third party except

when:

• An agreement from the vehicle’s owner (or the lessee for a leased vehicle)

is obtained

• Officially requested by the police or other authorities

• For use by Toyota in a law suit

• Ordered by a court of law

However, if necessary, Toyota will:

• Use the data for research on vehicle safety performance

• Disclose the data to a third party for research purposes without disclosing

information about the specific vehicle or vehicle owner

Your vehicle contains batteries and/or accumulators. Do not discard them into

the environment but cooperate with separate collection (Directive 2006/66/

EC).

YARIS_HB_WE_52A70E

CAUTION

 General precautions while driving

Driving under the influence: Never drive your vehicle when under the influ-

ence of alcohol or drugs that have impaired your ability to operate your vehi-

cle. Alcohol and certain drugs delay reaction time, impair judgment and

reduce coordination, which could lead to an accident that could result in

death or serious injury.

Defensive driving: Always drive defensively. Anticipate mistakes that other

drivers or pedestrians might make and be ready to avoid accidents.

Driver distraction: Always give your full attention to driving. Anything that dis-

tracts the driver, such as adjusting controls, talking on a cellular phone or

reading can result in a collision with resulting death or serious injury to you,

your occupants or others.

 General precaution regarding children’s safety

Never leave children unattended in the vehicle, and never allow children to

have or use the key.

Children may be able to start the vehicle or shift the vehicle into neutral.

There is also a danger that children may injure themselves by playing with

the cigarette lighter, the windows, or other features of the vehicle. In addi-

tion, heat build-up or extremely cold temperatures inside the vehicle can be

fatal to children.

sudden braking, sudden swerving or an accident.

Failure to do so may cause death or serious injury.

 Wearing a seat belt

 Ensure that all passengers wear a seat belt.

 Always wear a seat belt properly.

 Each seat belt should be used by one person only. Do not use a seat belt

for more than one person at once, including children.

 Toyota recommends that children be seated in the rear seat and always

use a seat belt and/or an appropriate child restraint system.

 To achieve a proper seating position, do not recline the seat more than

necessary. The seat belt is most effective when the occupants are sitting

up straight and well back in the seats.

 Do not wear the shoulder belt under your arm.

 Always wear your seat belt low and snug across your hips.

 When children are in the vehicle

Do not allow children to play with the seat belt. If the seat belt becomes

twisted around a child’s neck, it may lead to choking or other serious injuries

that could result in death.

If this occurs and the buckle cannot be unfastened, scissors should be used

to cut the belt.

 Seat belt pretensioners

 Do not place anything, such as a cushion, on the front passenger’s seat.

The seat belt pretensioner for the front passenger’s seat may not activate

in the event of a collision.

YARIS_HB_WE_52A70E

CAUTION

 While driving

 Do not adjust the position of the driver’s seat.

Doing so could cause the driver to lose control of the vehicle.

 Do not place a cushion between the driver or passenger and the seatback.

A cushion may prevent correct posture from being achieved, and reduce

the effectiveness of the seat belt and head restraint, increasing the risk of

death or serious injury to the driver or passenger.

 Do not place anything under the front seats.

Objects placed under the front seats may become jammed in the seat

tracks and stop the seat from locking in place. This may lead to an acci-

dent, resulting in death or serious injury. The adjustment mechanism may

also be damaged.

 Adjusting the seat position

 Take care when adjusting the seat position to ensure that other passen-

gers are not injured by the moving seat.

 Do not put your hands under the seat or near the moving parts to avoid

injury.

Fingers or hands may become jammed in the seat mechanism.

SRS airbags

The SRS airbags inflate when the vehicle is subjected to certain

types of severe impacts that may cause significant injury to the

occupants. They work together with the seat belts to help reduce the

risk of death or serious injury.

SRS front airbags

SRS driver airbag/front passenger airbag

Can help protect the head and chest of the driver and front pas-

senger from impact with interior components

SRS driver knee airbag

Can help provide driver protection

SRS side and curtain shield airbags

SRS side airbags

Can help protect the torso of the front seat occupants

SRS curtain shield airbags

Can help protect primarily the head of occupants in the outer

seats

SRS airbag system components

The main SRS airbag system components are shown above. The

SRS airbag system is controlled by the airbag sensor assembly. As

the airbags deploy, a chemical reaction in the inflators quickly fills the

airbags with non-toxic gas to help restrain the motion of the occu-

pants.

 If the SRS airbags deploy (inflate)

 Bruising and slight abrasions may result from contact with a deploying

(inflating) SRS airbag.

 A loud noise and white powder will be emitted.

 Parts of the airbag module (steering wheel hub, airbag cover and inflator)

as well as the front seats, parts of the front and rear pillars, and roof side

rails, may be hot for several minutes. The airbag itself may also be hot.

 The windshield may crack.

 SRS airbag deployment conditions (SRS front airbags)

 The SRS front airbags will deploy in the event of an impact that exceeds

the set threshold level (the level of force corresponding to an approxi-

mately 20 - 30 km/h [12 - 18 mph] frontal collision with a fixed wall that

does not move or deform).

However, this threshold velocity will be considerably higher if the vehicle

strikes an object, such as a parked vehicle and sign pole, which can move

or deform on impact, or if the vehicle is involved in an underride collision

(e.g. a collision in which the front of the vehicle “underrides”, or goes

under, the bed of a truck etc.).

 It is possible that in some collisions where the forward deceleration of the

vehicle is very close to the designed threshold level, the SRS front air-

bags and the seat belt pretensioners may not activate together.

 SRS airbag deployment conditions (SRS side and curtain shield air-

bags)

The SRS side and curtain shield airbags will deploy in the event of an impact

that exceeds the set threshold level (the level of force corresponding to the

impact force produced by an approximately 1500 kg [3300 lb.] vehicle collid-

ing with the vehicle cabin from a direction perpendicular to the vehicle orien-

tation at an approximate speed of 20 - 30 km/h [12 - 18 mph]).

1-7. Safety information

YARIS_HB_WE_52A70E

 Conditions under which the SRS airbags may deploy (inflate), other

than a collision

The SRS front airbags may also deploy if a serious impact occurs to the

underside of your vehicle. Some examples are shown in the illustration.

 Types of collisions that may not deploy the SRS airbags (SRS front air-

bags)

The SRS front airbags do not generally inflate if the vehicle is involved in a

side or rear collision, if it rolls over, or if it is involved in a low-speed frontal

collision. But, whenever a collision of any type causes sufficient forward

deceleration of the vehicle, deployment of the SRS front airbags may occur.

 Hitting a curb, edge of pavement or

hard surface

 Falling into or jumping over a deep hole

 Landing hard or falling

 Collision from the side

 Collision from the rear

 Vehicle rollover

1-7. Safety information

Before driving

YARIS_HB_WE_52A70E

 Types of collisions that may not deploy the SRS airbags

(SRS side and curtain shield airbags)

The SRS side and curtain shield airbags may not activate if the vehicle is

subjected to a collision from the side at certain angles, or a collision to the

side of the vehicle body other than the passenger compartment.

The SRS side and curtain shield airbags do not generally inflate if the vehi-

cle is involved in a frontal or rear collision, if it rolls over, or if it is involved in

a low-speed side collision.

 Collision from the side to the vehicle

body other than the passenger com-

partment

 Collision from the side at an angle

 Collision from the front

 Collision from the rear

 Vehicle rollover

1-7. Safety information

YARIS_HB_WE_52A70E

 When to contact any authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another

duly qualified and equipped professional

In the following cases, contact any authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or

another duly qualified and equipped professional as soon as possible.

 Any of the SRS airbags have been inflated.

 The front of the vehicle is damaged or

deformed, or was involved in an acci-

dent that was not severe enough to

cause the SRS front airbags to inflate.

 A portion of a door is damaged or

deformed, or the vehicle was involved

in an accident that was not severe

enough to cause the SRS side and cur-

tain shield airbags to inflate.

 The pad section of the steering wheel,

dashboard near the front passenger air-

bag or lower portion of the instrument

panel is scratched, cracked, or other-

wise damaged.

 The surface of the seats with the side

airbag is scratched, cracked, or other-

wise damaged.

 The portion of the front pillars, rear pil-

lars or roof side rail garnishes (padding)

containing the curtain shield airbags is

inside scratched, cracked, or otherwise

damaged.

1-7. Safety information

Before driving

YARIS_HB_WE_52A70E

CAUTION

 SRS airbag precautions

Observe the following precautions regarding the SRS airbags.

Failure to do so may cause death or serious injury.

 The driver and all passengers in the vehicle must wear their seat belts

properly.

The SRS airbags are supplemental devices to be used with the seat belts.

 The SRS driver airbag deploys with considerable force, and can cause

death or serious injury especially if the driver is very close to the airbag.

Since the risk zone for the driver’s airbag is the first 50 - 75 mm (2 - 3 in.)

of inflation, placing yourself 250 mm (10 in.) from your driver airbag pro-

vides you with a clear margin of safety. This distance is measured from the

center of the steering wheel to your breastbone. If you sit less than 250

mm (10 in.) away now, you can change your driving position in several

ways:

• Move your seat to the rear as far as you can while still reaching the

pedals comfortably.

• Slightly recline the back of the seat. Although vehicle designs vary,

many drivers can achieve the 250 mm (10 in.) distance, even with the

driver seat all the way forward, simply by reclining the back of the seat

somewhat. If reclining the back of your seat makes it hard to see the

road, raise yourself by using a firm, non-slippery cushion, or raise the

seat if your vehicle has that feature.

• If your steering wheel is adjustable, tilt it downward. This points the air-

bag toward your chest instead of your head and neck.

The seat should be adjusted as recommended above, while still maintain-

ing control of the foot pedals, steering wheel, and your view of the instru-

ment panel controls.

 The SRS front passenger airbag also deploys with considerable force, and

can cause death or serious injury especially if the front passenger is very

close to the airbag. The front passenger seat should be as far from the air-

bag as possible with the seatback adjusted, so the front passenger sits

upright.

1-7. Safety information

YARIS_HB_WE_52A70E

CAUTION

 SRS airbag precautions

 Improperly seated and/or restrained infants and children can be killed or

seriously injured by a deploying airbag. An infant or child who is too small

to use a seat belt should be properly secured using a child restraint sys-

tem. Toyota strongly recommends that all infants and children be placed in

the rear seats of the vehicle and properly restrained. The rear seats are

safer for infants and children than the front passenger seat. (P. 96)

 Do not sit on the edge of the seat or

lean against the dashboard.

 Do not allow a child to stand in front of

the SRS front passenger airbag unit or

sit on the knees of a front passenger.

 Do not allow the front seat occupants to

hold items on their knees.

 Do not lean against the door, the roof

side rail or the front, side and rear pil-

lars.

1-7. Safety information

Before driving

YARIS_HB_WE_52A70E

CAUTION

 SRS airbag precautions

 Do not allow anyone to kneel on the

passenger seat toward the door or put

their head or hands outside the vehicle.

 Do not attach anything to or lean any-

thing against areas such as the dash-

board, steering wheel pad and lower

portion of the instrument panel.

These items can become projectiles

when the SRS driver, front passenger

and driver knee airbags deploy.

 Do not attach anything to areas such as

a door, windshield glass, side door

glass, front or rear pillar, roof side rail

and assist grip.

 Do not attach any heavy, sharp or hard

objects such as keys and accessories

to the key. The objects may restrict the

SRS driver knee airbag inflation or be

thrust into the driver’s seat area by the

force of the deploying airbag, thus

causing a danger.

1-7. Safety information

YARIS_HB_WE_52A70E

CAUTION

 SRS airbag precautions

 Do not hang coat hangers or other hard objects on the coat hooks. All of

these items could become projectiles and may cause death or serious

injury, should the SRS curtain shield airbags deploy.

 If a vinyl cover is put on the area where the SRS driver knee airbag will

deploy, be sure to remove it.

 Do not use seat accessories which cover the parts where the SRS side

airbags inflate as they may interfere with inflation of the airbags. Such

accessories may prevent the side airbags from activating correctly, disable

the system or cause the side airbags to inflate accidentally, resulting in

death or serious injury.

 Do not strike or apply significant levels of force to the area of the SRS air-

bag components.

Doing so can cause the SRS airbags to malfunction.

 Do not touch any of the component parts immediately after the SRS air-

bags have deployed (inflated) as they may be hot.

 If breathing becomes difficult after the SRS airbags have deployed, open a

door or window to allow fresh air in, or leave the vehicle if it is safe to do

so. Wash off any residue as soon as possible to prevent skin irritation.

 If the areas where the SRS airbags are stored, such as the steering wheel

pad and front and rear pillar garnishes, are damaged or cracked, have

them replaced by any authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly

qualified and equipped professional.

1-7. Safety information

CAUTION

 Modification and disposal of SRS airbag system components

Do not dispose of your vehicle or perform any of the following modifications

without consulting any authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly

qualified and equipped professional. The SRS airbags may malfunction or

deploy (inflate) accidentally, causing death or serious injury.

 Installation, removal, disassembly and repair of the SRS airbags

 Repairs, modifications, removal or replacement of the steering wheel,

instrument panel, dashboard, seats or seat upholstery, front, side and rear

pillars or roof side rails

 When installing the child restraint system on the front passenger seat

 Selecting an appropriate child restraint system

 Use a child restraint system appropriate for the child until the child

becomes large enough to properly wear the vehicle’s seat belt.

 If the child is too large for a child restraint system, sit the child on a rear

seat and use the vehicle’s seat belt. (P. 59)

CAUTION

 Using a child restraint system

The use of a child restraint system not suitable for the vehicle may not prop-

erly secure the infant or child. It may result in death or serious injury (in the

event of sudden braking or an accident).

 Child restraint precautions

 For effective protection in automobile accidents and sudden stops, a child

must be properly restrained, using a seat belt or child restraint system

depending on the age and size of the child. Holding a child in your arms is

not a substitute for a child restraint system. In an accident, the child can be

crushed against the windshield, or between you and the vehicle’s interior.

 Toyota strongly urges the use of a proper child restraint system that con-

forms to the size of the child, installed on the rear seat. According to acci-

dent statistics, the child is safer when properly restrained in the rear seat

than in the front seat.

 Never use a rear-facing child restraint system on the front passenger seat

when the airbag manual on-off switch is on. (P. 94)

In the event of an accident, the force of the rapid inflation of the front pas-

senger airbag can cause death or serious injury to the child.

When you have to use a child restraint

system on the front passenger seat,

adjust the following:

 The seatback to the most upright posi-

tion

 The seat as far back as possible

103

1-7. Safety information

Before driving

YARIS_HB_WE_52A70E

CAUTION

 Child restraint precautions

 A forward-facing child restraint system may be installed on the front pas-

senger seat only when it is unavoidable. A child restraint system that

requires a top tether strap should not be used in the front passenger seat

since there is no top tether strap anchor for the front passenger seat.

Adjust the seatback as upright as possible and always move the seat as

far back as possible because the front passenger airbag could inflate with

considerable speed and force. Otherwise, the child may be killed or seri-

ously injured.

 Do not allow the child to lean his/her head or any part of his/her body

against the door or the area of the seat, front and rear pillars or roof side

rails from which the SRS side airbags or SRS curtain shield airbags deploy

even if the child is seated in the child restraint system. It is dangerous if

the SRS side airbags and SRS curtain shield airbags inflate, and the

impact could cause death or serious injury to the child.

 Make sure you have complied with all installation instructions provided by

the child restraint manufacturer and that the system is properly secured. If

it is not secured properly, it may cause death or serious injury to the child

in the event of a sudden stop, sudden swerve or an accident.

 When children are in the vehicle

Do not allow children to play with the seat belt. If the seat belt becomes

twisted around a child’s neck, it may lead to choking or other serious injuries

that could result in death.

If this occurs and the buckle cannot be unfastened, scissors should be used

to cut the belt.

 When the child restraint system is not in use

 Keep the child restraint system properly secured on the seat even if it is

not in use. Do not store the child restraint system unsecured in the pas-

senger compartment.

 If it is necessary to detach the child restraint system, remove it from the

vehicle or store it securely in the luggage compartment. This will prevent it

from injuring passengers in the event of a sudden stop, sudden swerve or

accident.

2-1. Driving procedures

YARIS_HB_WE_52A70E

CAUTION

 When starting the vehicle (vehicles with a Multidrive)

Always keep your foot on the brake pedal while stopped with the engine run-

ning. This prevents the vehicle from creeping.

 When driving the vehicle

 Do not drive if you are unfamiliar with the location of the brake and accel-

erator pedals to avoid depressing the wrong pedal.

• Accidentally depressing the accelerator pedal instead of the brake

pedal will result in sudden acceleration that may lead to an accident

that could result in death or serious injury.

• When backing up, you may twist your body around, leading to a diffi-

culty in operating the pedals. Make sure to operate the pedals properly.

• Make sure to keep a correct driving posture even when moving the

vehicle only slightly. This allows you to depress the brake and acceler-

ator pedals properly.

• Depress the brake pedal using your right foot. Depressing the brake

pedal using your left foot may delay response in an emergency, result-

ing in an accident.

 Do not drive the vehicle over or stop the vehicle near flammable materials.

The exhaust system and exhaust gases can be extremely hot. These hot

parts may cause a fire if there is any flammable material nearby.

 On vehicles with a Multidrive, do not let the vehicle roll backward while the

shift lever is in a driving position, or roll forward while the shift lever is in R.

Doing so may cause the engine to stall or lead to poor brake and steering

performance, resulting in an accident or damage to the vehicle.

 If the smell of exhaust is noticed inside the vehicle, open the windows and

check that the back door is closed. Large amounts of exhaust in the vehi-

cle can cause driver drowsiness and an accident, resulting in death or a

serious health hazard. Have the vehicle inspected immediately by any

authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and

equipped professional immediately.

 On vehicles with a Multidrive, do not shift the shift lever to P while the vehi-

cle is moving.

Doing so can damage the transmission and may result in a loss of vehicle

control.

121

2-1. Driving procedures

When driving

YARIS_HB_WE_52A70E

CAUTION

 Do not shift the shift lever to R while the vehicle is moving forward.

Doing so can damage the transmission and may result in a loss of vehicle

control.

 Do not shift the shift lever to D (vehicles with a Multidrive) or 1 (vehicles

with a manual transmission) while the vehicle is moving backward.

Doing so can damage the transmission and may result in a loss of vehicle

control.

 Moving the shift lever to N while the vehicle is moving will disengage the

engine from the transmission. Engine braking is not available when N is

selected.

 During normal driving, do not turn off the engine. Turning the engine off

while driving will not cause loss of steering or braking control, but the

power assist to these systems will be lost. This will make it more difficult to

steer and brake, so you should pull over and stop the vehicle as soon as it

is safe to do so.

However, in the event of an emergency, such as if it becomes impossible

to stop the vehicle in the normal way: P. 406

 Use engine braking (downshift) to maintain a safe speed when driving

down a steep hill.

Using the brakes continuously may cause the brakes to overheat and lose

effectiveness. (P. 131, 136)

 When stopped on an inclined surface, use the brake pedal and parking

brake to prevent the vehicle from rolling backward or forward and causing

an accident.

 Do not adjust the positions of the steering wheel, the seat, or the inside or

outside rear view mirrors while driving.

Doing so may result in a loss of vehicle control that can cause accidents,

resulting in death or serious injury.

 Always check that all passengers’ arms, heads or other parts of their body

are not outside the vehicle, as this may result in death or serious injury.

122

2-1. Driving procedures

YARIS_HB_WE_52A70E

CAUTION

 When driving on slippery road surfaces

 Sudden braking, acceleration and steering may cause tire slippage and

reduce your ability to control the vehicle, resulting in an accident.

 Sudden changes in engine speed, such as engine braking caused by up-

shifting and down-shifting, may cause the vehicle to skid, resulting in an

accident.

 After driving through a puddle, lightly depress the brake pedal to make

sure that the brakes are functioning properly. Wet brake pads may prevent

the brakes from functioning properly. If the brakes on only one side are wet

and not functioning properly, steering control may be affected, resulting in

an accident.

 When shifting the shift lever (vehicles with a Multidrive)

Be careful not to shift the shift lever with the accelerator pedal depressed.

Shifting the shift lever to a gear other than P or N may lead to unexpected

rapid acceleration of the vehicle that may cause an accident and result in

death or serious injury.

 If you hear a squealing or scraping noise (brake pad wear indicators)

Have the brake pads checked and replaced by any authorized Toyota dealer

or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped professional as soon as

possible.

Rotor damage may result if the pads are not replaced when needed.

It is dangerous to drive the vehicle when the wear limits of the brake pads

and/or those of the brake discs are exceeded.

123

2-1. Driving procedures

When driving

YARIS_HB_WE_52A70E

CAUTION

 When the vehicle is stopped

 Do not race the engine.

If the vehicle is in any gear other than P (vehicles with a Multidrive only) or

N, the vehicle may accelerate suddenly and unexpectedly, causing an

accident.

 Do not leave the vehicle with the engine running for a long time.

If such a situation cannot be avoided, park the vehicle in an open space

and check that exhaust fumes do not enter the vehicle interior.

 On vehicles with a Multidrive, in order to prevent accidents due to the vehi-

cle rolling away, always keep depressing the brake pedal while the engine

is running, and apply the parking brake as necessary.

 If the vehicle is stopped on an incline, in order to prevent accidents caused

by the vehicle rolling forward or backward, always depress the brake pedal

and securely apply the parking brake as needed.

 Avoid revving or racing the engine.

Running the engine at high speed while the vehicle is stopped may cause

the exhaust system to overheat, which could result in a fire if combustible

material is nearby.

 When the vehicle is parked

 Do not leave glasses, cigarette lighters, spray cans, or soft drink cans in

the vehicle when it is in the sun.

Doing so may result in the following:

• Gas may leak from a cigarette lighter or spray can, and may lead to a

fire.

• The temperature inside the vehicle may cause the plastic lenses and

plastic material of glasses to deform or crack.

• Soft drink cans may fracture, causing the contents to spray over the

interior of the vehicle, and may also cause a short circuit in the vehi-

cle’s electrical components.

 Do not leave cigarette lighters in the vehicle. If a cigarette lighter is in a

place such as the glove box or on the floor, it may be lit accidentally when

luggage is loaded or the seat is adjusted, causing a fire.

124

2-1. Driving procedures

YARIS_HB_WE_52A70E

CAUTION

 Do not attach adhesive discs to the windshield or windows. Do not place

containers such as air fresheners on the instrument panel or dashboard.

Adhesive discs or containers may act as lenses, causing a fire in the vehi-

cle.

 Do not leave a door or window open if the curved glass is coated with a

metallized film such as a silver-colored one. Reflected sunlight may cause

the glass to act as a lens, causing a fire.

 On vehicles with a Multidrive, always apply the parking brake, shift the

shift lever to P, stop the engine and lock the vehicle.

Do not leave the vehicle unattended while the engine is running.

 Do not touch the exhaust pipes while the engine is running or immediately

after turning the engine off.

Doing so may cause burns.

 Do not leave the engine running in an area with snow build-up, or where it

is snowing. If snowbanks build up around the vehicle while the engine is

running, exhaust gases may collect and enter the vehicle. This may lead

to death or a serious health hazard.

 Exhaust gases

Exhaust gases include harmful carbon monoxide (CO), which is colorless

and odorless. Inhaling exhaust gases may lead to death or a serious health

hazard.

 If the vehicle is in a poorly ventilated area, stop the engine. In a closed

area, such as a garage, exhaust gases may collect and enter the vehicle.

This may lead to death or a serious health hazard.

 The exhaust system should be checked occasionally. If there is a hole or

crack caused by corrosion, damage to a joint or abnormal exhaust noise,

be sure to have the vehicle inspected and repaired by any authorized Toy-

ota dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped professional.

Failure to do so may allow exhaust gases to enter the vehicle, resulting in

death or a serious health hazard.

125

2-1. Driving procedures

When driving

YARIS_HB_WE_52A70E

CAUTION

 When taking a nap in the vehicle

Always turn the engine off. Otherwise, if you accidentally move the shift lever

or depress the accelerator pedal, this could cause an accident or fire due to

engine overheating. Additionally, if the vehicle is parked in a poorly venti-

lated area, exhaust gases may collect and enter the vehicle, leading to

death or a serious health hazard.

 When braking

 When the brakes are wet, drive more cautiously.

Braking distance increases when the brakes are wet, and this may cause

one side of the vehicle to brake differently than the other side. Also, the

parking brake may not securely hold the vehicle.

 If the power brake assist function does not operate, do not follow other

vehicles closely and avoid hills or sharp turns that require braking.

In this case, braking is still possible, but the brake pedal should be

depressed more firmly than usual. Also, the braking distance will increase.

 Do not pump the brake pedal if the engine stalls.

Each push on the brake pedal uses up the reserve for the power-assisted

brakes.

 The brake system consists of 2 individual hydraulic systems; if one of the

systems fails, the other will still operate. In this case, the brake pedal

should be depressed more firmly than usual and the braking distance will

increase.

If this happens, do not continue to drive the vehicle. Have your brakes

fixed immediately.

126

2-1. Driving procedures

Driving assist systems

To help enhance driving safety and performance, the following sys-

tems operate automatically in response to various driving situations.

Be aware, however, that these systems are supplementary and

should not be relied upon too heavily when operating the vehicle.

 ABS (Anti-lock Brake System)

Helps to prevent wheel lock when the brakes are applied suddenly, or if

the brakes are applied while driving on a slippery road surface.

 Brake assist

Generates an increased level of braking force after the brake pedal is

depressed when the system detects a panic stop situation.

 VSC (Vehicle Stability Control)

Helps the driver to control skidding when swerving suddenly or turning

on slippery road surfaces.

 TRC (Traction Control)

Helps to maintain drive power and prevent the drive wheels from spin-

ning when starting the vehicle or accelerating on slippery roads.

 Hill-start assist control (with Stop & Start system and Multi-

drive)

Helps to prevent the vehicle from rolling backwards when the brake

pedal is released to restart the engine.

 Supplementary outside rear view mirrors should be added to the vehicle

if the traffic behind cannot be clearly seen with standard mirrors. Adjust

the extending arms of these mirrors on both sides of the vehicle so that

they always provide maximum visibility of the road behind.

 Maintenance

 Maintenance must be performed more frequently when using the vehicle

for towing due to the greater weight burden placed on the vehicle com-

pared to normal driving.

 Retighten all bolts securing the hitching ball and bracket after towing for

approximately 1000 km (600 miles).

NOTICE

 When the rear bumper strengthening material is aluminum

Ensure the steel bracket part does not come directly in contact with that

area.

When steel and aluminum come into contact, there is a reaction similar to

corrosion, which will weaken the section concerned and may result in dam-

age. Apply a rust inhibitor to parts that will come in contact when attaching a

steel bracket.

2-5. Driving information

When driving

YARIS_HB_WE_52A70E

Guidance

Your vehicle will handle differently when towing a trailer. In order to

avoid accident, death or serious injury, keep the following in mind

when towing:

 Checking connections between trailer and lights

Stop the vehicle and check the operation of the connection

between the trailer and lights after driving for a brief period as well

as before setting off.

 Practicing driving with a coupled trailer

 Get the feel for turning, stopping and reversing with the trailer

coupled by practicing in an area with no or light traffic.

 When reversing with a coupled trailer, hold the section of the

steering wheel nearest to you and rotate clockwise to turn the

trailer left or counterclockwise to turn it right. Always rotate a lit-

tle at a time to prevent steering error. Have someone guide you

when reversing to lessen the risk of accident.

 Increasing vehicle-to-vehicle distance

At a speed of 10 km/h (6 mph), the distance to the vehicle running

ahead of you should be equivalent to or greater than the combined

length of your vehicle and trailer. Avoid sudden braking that may

cause skidding. Otherwise, the vehicle may spin out of control.

This is especially true when driving on wet or slippery road sur-

faces.

 Sudden acceleration/steering input/cornering

Executing sharp turns when towing may result in the trailer collid-

ing with your vehicle. Decelerate well in advance when approach-

ing turns and take them slowly and carefully to avoid sudden

braking.

206

2-5. Driving information

YARIS_HB_WE_52A70E

 Important points regarding turning

The wheels of the trailer will travel closer to the inside of the curve

than the wheels of the vehicle. To make allowance for this, take the

turns wider than you would normally do.

 Important points regarding stability

Vehicle movement resulting from uneven road surfaces and strong

crosswinds will affect handling. The vehicle may also be rocked by

passing buses or large trucks. Frequently check behind when mov-

ing alongside such vehicles. As soon as such vehicle movement

occurs, immediately start to decelerate smoothly by slowly apply-

ing the brakes. Always steer the vehicle straight ahead while brak-

ing.

 Passing other vehicles

Consider the total combined length of your vehicle and trailer, and

ensure that the vehicle-to-vehicle distance is sufficient before exe-

cuting lane changes.

 Transmission information

Vehicles with a Multidrive:

To maintain engine braking efficiency, when using engine braking,

do not use the transmission in D. Transmission shift gear position

must be in 4 in the 7-speed sport sequential shift matic mode.

(P. 131)

Vehicles with a manual transmission:

To maintain engine braking efficiency, when using engine braking,

do not use the transmission in 5 and 6 (vehicles with a 6-speed

manual transmission) gear. (P. 136)

 If the engine overheats

Towing a loaded trailer up a long, steep incline in temperatures

exceeding 30C (85F) may result in the engine overheating. If the

high engine coolant temperature warning light flashes or comes

on, turn the air conditioning off immediately, leave the road and

stop the vehicle in a safe place. (P. 401)

207

2-5. Driving information

When driving

YARIS_HB_WE_52A70E

 When parking the vehicle

Always place wheel chocks under the wheels of both the vehicle

and trailer. Firmly set the parking brake and shift the shift lever to P

for Multidrives, and 1 or R for manual transmissions.

CAUTION

Follow all the instructions described in this section.

Failure to do so could cause an accident resulting in death or serious injury.

 Trailer towing precautions

When towing, make sure that none of the weight limits are exceeded.

(P. 199)

 Vehicle speed in towing

Observe the legal maximum speeds for trailer towing.

 Before descending hills or long declines

Reduce speed and downshift. However, never downshift suddenly while

descending steep or long downhill grades.

 Operation of the brake pedal

Do not hold the brake pedal depressed often or for long periods of time.

Doing so may result in the brake overheating or reduce braking effects.

 To avoid accident or injury

 Vehicles with a cruise control: Do not use cruise control when you are tow-

ing.

 Vehicles with a compact spare tire: Do not tow if your vehicle has a com-

pact spare tire installed.

into and accumulate in the air conditioning system. This may then cause

odor to be emitted from the vents.

 To reduce potential odors from occurring:

It is recommended that the air conditioning system be set to outside air

mode prior to turning the vehicle off.

 An odor comes from the air conditioning system due to the Stop &

Start system operation (vehicles with a Stop & Start system)

When the engine is stopped due to the Stop & Start system, an odor caused

by moisture may be detected. This does not indicate a malfunction.

 Air conditioning filter

 MP3 and WMA playback

When a disc containing MP3 or WMA files is inserted, all files on the disc

are first checked. Once the file check is finished, the first MP3 or WMA file

is played. To make the file check finish more quickly, we recommend you

do not write in any files other than MP3 or WMA files or create any unnec-

essary folders.

If the discs contain a mixture of music data and MP3 or WMA format data,

only music data can be played.

 Extensions

If the file extensions .mp3 and .wma are used for files other than MP3 and

WMA files, they will be mistakenly recognized and played as MP3 and

WMA files. This may result in large amounts of interference and damage

to the speakers.

 Playback

• To play MP3 files with steady sound quality, we recommend a fixed bit

rate of 128 kbps and a sampling frequency of 44.1 kHz.

• CD-R or CD-RW playback may not be possible in some instances,

depending on the characteristics of the disc.

• There is a wide variety of freeware and other encoding software for

MP3 and WMA files on the market, and depending on the status of the

encoding and the file format, poor sound quality or noise at the start of

playback may result. In some cases, playback may not be possible at

all.

• When files other than MP3 or WMA files are recorded on a disc, it may

take more time to recognize the disc and in some cases, playback may

not be possible at all.

• Microsoft, Windows, and Windows Media are the registered trade-

marks of Microsoft Corporation in the U.S. and other countries.

 Engine oil consumption

 The amount of engine oil consumed depends on the oil viscosity, the

quality of the oil and the way the vehicle is driven.

 More oil is consumed under driving conditions such as high speeds and

frequent acceleration and deceleration.

 A new engine consumes more oil.

 When judging the amount of oil consumption, keep in mind that the oil

may have become diluted, making it difficult to judge the true level accu-

rately.

 Oil consumption: Max. 1.0 L/1000 km (1.1 qt./600 miles, 0.9 Imp. qt./600

miles)

 If your vehicle consumes more than 1.0 L (1.1 qt., 0.9 Imp. qt.) every

1000 km (600 miles), contact any authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or

another duly qualified and equipped professional.

CAUTION

 Used engine oil

 Used engine oil contains potentially harmful contaminants which may

cause skin disorders such as inflammation and skin cancer, so care

should be taken to avoid prolonged and repeated contact. To remove used

engine oil from your skin, wash thoroughly with soap and water.

 Dispose of used oil and filters only in a safe and acceptable manner. Do

not dispose of used oil and filters in household trash, in sewers or onto the

ground. Call any authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly

qualified and equipped professional, service station or auto parts store for

information concerning recycling or disposal.

 When to replace your vehicle’s tires

Tires should be replaced if:

 You have tire damage such as cuts, splits, cracks deep enough to

expose the fabric, and bulges indicating internal damage

 A tire goes flat repeatedly or cannot be properly repaired due to the size

or location of a cut or other damage

If you are not sure, consult with any authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or

another duly qualified and equipped professional.

 Tire life

Any tire over 6 years old must be checked by a qualified technician even if it

has seldom or never been used or damage is not obvious.

 If the tread on snow tires wears down below 4 mm (0.16 in.)

The effectiveness of the tires as snow tires is lost.

Vehicles with a spare tire of the same wheel type as the

installed tires

Rotate the tires in the order

shown.

To equalize tire wear and help

extend tire life, Toyota recom-

mends that you rotate your

tires approximately every

CAUTION

 When inspecting or replacing tires

Observe the following precautions to prevent accidents.

Failure to do so may cause damage to parts of the drive train as well as dan-

gerous handling characteristics, which may lead to an accident resulting in

death or serious injury.

 Do not mix tires of different makes, models or tread patterns.

Also, do not mix tires of remarkably different treadwear.

 Do not use tire sizes other than those recommended by Toyota.

 Do not mix differently constructed tires (radial, bias-belted or bias-ply

tires).

 Do not mix summer, all season and snow tires.

 Do not use tires that have been used on another vehicle.

Do not use tires if you do not know how they were used previously.

 Vehicles with a compact spare tire: Do not tow if your vehicle has a com-

pact spare tire installed.

NOTICE

 Driving on rough roads

Take particular care when driving on roads with loose surfaces or potholes.

These conditions may cause losses in tire inflation pressure, reducing the

cushioning ability of the tires. In addition, driving on rough roads may cause

damage to the tires themselves, as well as the vehicle’s wheels and body.

 If tire inflation pressure of each tire becomes low while driving

Do not continue driving, or your tires and/or wheels may be ruined.

Tire inflation pressure

 Effects of incorrect tire inflation pressure

Driving with incorrect tire inflation pressure may result in the following:

 Reduced fuel efficiency

 Reduced driving comfort and tire life

 Reduced safety

 Damage to the drive train

If a tire needs frequent inflating, have it checked by any authorized Toyota

dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped professional.

 Instructions for checking tire inflation pressure

When checking tire inflation pressure, observe the following:

 Check only when the tires are cold.

If your vehicle has been parked for at least 3 hours or has not been

driven for more than 1.5 km or 1 mile, you will get an accurate cold tire

inflation pressure reading.

 Always use a tire pressure gauge.

The appearance of the tire can be misleading. In addition, tire inflation

pressure that is even just a few pounds off can affect ride quality and

handling.

 Do not reduce tire inflation pressure after driving. It is normal for tire infla-

tion pressure to be higher after driving.

 Never exceed the vehicle capacity weight.

Passengers and luggage weight should be placed so that the vehicle is

balanced.

Make sure to maintain proper tire inflation pressure. Tire inflation

pressure should be checked at least once per month. However, Toy-

ota recommends that tire inflation pressure be checked once every

two weeks. (P. 422)

316

4-3. Do-it-yourself maintenance

YARIS_HB_WE_52A70E

CAUTION

 Proper inflation is critical to save tire performance

Keep your tires properly inflated. Otherwise, the following conditions may

occur and result in an accident causing death or serious injury:

 Excessive wear

 Uneven wear

 Poor handling

 Possibility of blowouts resulting from overheated tires

 Poor sealing of the tire bead

 Wheel deformation and/or tire separation

 A greater possibility of tire damage from road hazards

NOTICE

 When inspecting and adjusting tire inflation pressure

Be sure to put the tire valve caps back on.

Without the valve caps, dirt or moisture could get into the valve and cause

air leakage, which could result in an accident. If the caps are lost, replace

them as soon as possible.

Maintenance and care

YARIS_HB_WE_52A70E

Wheels

If a wheel is bent, cracked or heavily corroded, it should be replaced.

Otherwise, the tire may separate from the wheel or cause a loss of

handling control.

 Wheel selection

When replacing wheels, care should be taken to ensure that

they are equivalent to those removed in load capacity, diameter,

rim width and inset*.

Replacement wheels are available at any authorized Toyota

dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped profes-

sional.

*: Conventionally referred to as “offset”.

Toyota does not recommend using the following:

 Wheels of different sizes or types

 Used wheels

 Bent wheels that have been straightened

 Aluminum wheel precautions (if equipped)

 Use only Toyota wheel nuts and wrenches designed for use

with your aluminum wheels.

 When rotating, repairing or changing your tires, check that the

wheel nuts are still tight after driving 1600 km (1000 miles).

 Be careful not to damage the aluminum wheels when using

tire chains.

 Use only Toyota genuine balance weights or equivalent and

use a plastic or rubber hammer when balancing your wheels.

318

4-3. Do-it-yourself maintenance

YARIS_HB_WE_52A70E

CAUTION

 When replacing wheels

 Do not use wheels that are a different size from those recommended in the

Owner’s Manual, as this may result in a loss of handling control.

 Never use an inner tube in a leaking wheel which is designed for a tube-

less tire. Doing so may result in an accident, causing death or serious

injury.

 When installing the wheel nuts

 Never use oil or grease on the wheel bolts or wheel nuts.

Oil and grease may cause the wheel nuts to be excessively tightened,

leading to bolt or disc wheel damage. In addition, the oil or grease can

cause the wheel nuts to loosen and the wheel may fall off, causing an acci-

dent and resulting in death or serious injury. Remove any oil or grease

from the wheel bolts or wheel nuts.

 Be sure to install the wheel nuts with

the tapered end facing inward. Install-

ing the nuts with the tapered end facing

outward can cause wheel to break and

eventually cause a wheel to come off

while driving, which could lead to an

accident resulting in death or serious

injury.

 Emergency tire puncture repair kit

 The sealant stored in the emergency tire puncture repair kit can be used

only once to temporarily repair a single tire. If the sealant has been used

and needs to be replaced, purchase a new bottle at any authorized Toy-

ota dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped profes-

sional. The compressor is reusable.

 The sealant can be used when the outside temperature is from -30°C

(-22°F) to 60°C (140°F).

 The repair kit is exclusively designed for size and type of tires originally

installed on your vehicle. Do not use it for tires that a different size than

the original ones, or for any other purposes.

 The sealant has a limited lifespan. The expiry date is marked on the bot-

tle. The bottle of sealant should be replaced with a new bottle before the

expiry date. Contact any authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another

duly qualified and equipped professional and purchase a new bottle.

 If the sealant gets on your clothes, it may stain.

 If the sealant adheres to a wheel or the surface of the vehicle body, the

stain may not be removable if it is not cleaned at once. Immediately wipe

away the sealant with a wet cloth.

 During operation of the repair kit, a loud operation noise is produced.

This does not indicate a malfunction.

 Do not use to check or to adjust the tire pressure.

5-2. Steps to take in an emergency

YARIS_HB_WE_52A70E

CAUTION

 Do not drive the vehicle with a flat tire

Do not continue driving with a flat tire.

Driving even a short distance with a flat tire can damage the tire and the

wheel beyond repair.

Driving with a flat tire may cause a circumferential groove on the side wall. In

such a case, the tire may explode when using a repair kit.

 Caution while driving

 Store the repair kit in the luggage room.

Injuries may result in the event of an accident or sudden braking.

 The repair kit is exclusively only for your vehicle.

Do not use repair kit on other vehicles, which could lead to an accident

causing death or serious injury.

 Do not use repair kit for tires that are different size than the original ones,

or for any other purpose. If the tires have not been completely repaired, it

could lead to an accident causing death or serious injury.

 Precautions for use of the sealant

 Ingesting the sealant is hazardous to your health. If you ingest sealant,

consume as much water as possible, and then immediately consult a doc-

tor.

 If sealant gets in eyes or adheres to skin, immediately wash it off with

water. If discomfort persists, consult a doctor.

 When fixing the flat tire

 Stop your vehicle in a safe and flat area.

 Do not touch the wheels or the area around the brakes immediately after

the vehicle has been driven.

After the vehicle has been driven, the wheels and the area around the

brakes may be extremely hot. Touching these areas with hands, feet or

other body parts may result in burns.

 Connect the valve and hose securely with the tire installed on the vehicle.

If the hose is not properly connected to the valve, air leakage may occur

as sealant may be sprayed out.

 If the hose comes off the valve while inflating the tire, there is a risk that

the hose will move abruptly due to air pressure.

391

5-2. Steps to take in an emergency

When trouble arises

YARIS_HB_WE_52A70E

CAUTION

 After inflation of the tire has completed, the sealant may splatter when the

hose is disconnected or some air is let out of the tire.

 Follow the operation procedure to repair the tire. If the procedures not fol-

lowed, the sealant may spray out.

 Keep back from the tire while it is being repaired, as there is a chance of it

bursting while the repair operation is being performed. If you notice any

cracks or deformation of the tire, turn off the compressor switch and stop

the repair operation immediately.

 The repair kit may overheat if operated for a long period of time. Do not

operate the repair kit continuously for more than 40 minutes.

 Parts of the repair kit become hot during operation. Be careful when han-

dling the repair kit during and after operation. Do not touch the metal part

around the connecting area between the bottle and compressor. It will be

extremely hot.

 Do not attach the vehicle speed warning sticker to an area other than the

one indicated. If the sticker is attached to an area where an SRS airbag is

located, such as the pad of the steering wheel, it may prevent the SRS air-

bag from operating properly.

 Driving to spread the liquid sealant evenly

Observe the following precautions to reduce the risk of accidents.

Failing to do so may result in a loss of vehicle control and cause death or

serious injury.

 Drive the vehicle carefully at a low speed. Be especially careful when turn-

ing and cornering.

 If the vehicle does not drive straight or you feel a pull through the steering

wheel, stop the vehicle and check the following.

• Tire condition. The tire may have separated from the wheel.

• Tire inflation pressure. If the tire inflation pressure is 130 kPa (1.3

kgf/cm

or bar, 19 psi) or less, the tire may be severely damaged.

 Engine oil selection

“Toyota Genuine Motor Oil” is used in your Toyota vehicle. Toyota rec-

ommends the use of approved “Toyota Genuine Motor Oil”. Another

motor oil of matching quality can also be used.

Oil grade:

0W-20, 5W-20, 5W-30 and 10W-30:

API grade SL “Energy-Conserving”, SM “Energy-Conserving” or

ILSAC multigrade engine oil

15W-40 and 20W-50:

API grade SL or SM multigrade engine oil

Recommended viscosity (SAE):

SAE 0W-20 is filled into your

Toyota vehicle at manufacturing,

and the best choice for good fuel

economy and good starting in

cold weather.

If SAE 0W-20 oil is not available,

SAE 5W-30 oil may be used.

However, it should be replaced

with SAE 0W-20 at the next oil

change.

If you use SAE 10W-30 or a

higher viscosity engine oil in

extremely low temperatures, the

engine may become difficult to

start, so SAE 5W-30 or lower vis-

cosity engine oil is recom-

mended.

Temperature range anticipated before

next oil change.

Vehicle specifications

YARIS_HB_WE_52A70E

Oil viscosity (0W-20 is explained here as an example):

• The 0W in 0W-20 indicates the characteristic of the oil which allows

cold startability. Oils with a lower value before the W allow for easier

starting of the engine in cold weather.

• The 20 in 0W-20 indicates the viscosity characteristic of the oil when

the oil is at high temperature. An oil with a higher viscosity (one with a

higher value) may be better suited if the vehicle is operated at high

speeds, or under extreme load conditions.

How to read oil container labels:

Either or both API registered marks are added to some oil containers

to help you select the oil you should use.

API Service Symbol

Top portion: The oil quality

designation by API (American

Petroleum Institute) (SM)

Center portion: The SAE viscosity

grade (SAE 0W-20)

Lower portion: “Energy-

Conserving” means that the oil

has fuel-saving capabilities.

ILSAC Certification Mark

The ILSAC (International

Lubricant Standardization and

Approval Committee) Certification

Mark is displayed on the front of

the container.
