Important information about your


Toyota

Occupant restraint systems


Toyota encourages you and your family to take the time to read
Section 1−3 of this Owner’s Manual carefully. In terms of helping
you understand how you can receive the maximum benefit of the
occupant restraint systems this vehicle provides, Section 1−3 of
this Owner’s Manual is the most important Section for you and
your family to read.
Section 1−3 describes the function and operation concerning seats,
seat belts, SRS airbags and child restraint systems of this vehicle
and some potential hazards you should be aware of. These sys-
tems work together along with the overall structure of this vehicle
in order to provide occupant restraint in the event of a crash. The
effect of each system is enhanced when it is used properly and
together with other systems. No single occupant restraint system
can, by itself, provide you or your family with the equal level of
restraint which these systems can provide when used together.
That is why it is important for you and your family to understand
the purpose and proper use of each of these systems and how
they relate to each other.
The purpose of all occupant restraint systems is to help reduce
the possibility of death or serious injury in the event of a colli-
sion. None of these systems, either individually or together, can
ensure that there is no injury in the event of collision. However,
the more you know about these systems and how to use them
properly, the greater your chances become of surviving an acci-
dent without death or serious injury.

iii
11 02.18

AYGO WE 99E37E

Seat belts provide the primary restraint to all occupants of the


vehicle, and every occupant of the vehicle should wear seat belts
properly at all times. Children should always be secured in child
restraint systems that are appropriate for their age and size. SRS
(Supplemental Restraint System) airbags are, as their names im-
ply, designed to work with, and be supplemental to, seat belts and
are not substitutes for them. SRS airbags can be very effective in
reducing the risk of head and chest injuries by preventing contact
of the head and chest with interior portions of the vehicle.
In order to be effective, the SRS airbags must deploy with tre-
mendous speed. The rapid deployment of the SRS airbags makes
the SRS airbags themselves potential sources of death or serious
injury if an occupant is too close to an airbag, or if an object or
some part of his or her body has been placed between the
occupant and the airbag at the time of deployment. This is just
one example of how the instructions in Section 1−3 of this Own-
er’s Manual will help ensure proper use of the occupant restraint
systems, and increase the safety they can provide to you and
your family in the event of an accident.
Toyota recommends you to read the provisions in Section 1−3
carefully and refer to them as needed during your time of owner-
ship of this vehicle.

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 mar-
ket. 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.

Installation of a RF−transmitter system


As the installation of an RF−transmitter system in your vehicle
may affect electronic systems such as the multi−port fuel injection
system/sequential multi−port fuel injection system, anti−lock brake
system, SRS airbag system or 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 special instructions regarding installation.
Further information regarding frequency bands, power levels, an-
tenna positions 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 profes-
sional.

Maintenance schedule
Please refer to the separate “Toyota Service Booklet” or “Toyota
Warranty Booklet”.

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 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
authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and
equipped professional, before you dispose of your vehicle.

Multi−mode manual transmission


driving tips
(Models equipped with multi−mode manual
transmission only)
The multi−mode manual transmission is a 5−speed forward/reverse
transmission and to do the clutch operation and gear shift
electronically having the basic features of the conventional manual
transmission.
This system has two driving modes. Easy (E) mode automatically
selects an appropriate gear position in accordance with an
accelerator pedal operation and a vehicle speed variation. Manual
(M) mode allows the driver to shift the gear using the shift lever.
To understand the unique system and operation method of the
multi−mode manual transmission, read Section 1−7 on page 139
thoroughly before driving. For starting procedures, see “How to
start the engine” on page 210 in Section 3.

Engine immobilizer system


If you make your own duplicate key,
you will not be able to cancel the sys-
tem or start the engine.

NOTICE
Do not modify or remove the system.
MS12029 If modified or removed, the proper
operation of the system cannot be
guaranteed.

The engine immobilizer system is a


theft prevention system. When you in-
sert the key in the engine switch, the
transponder chip in the key’s head
transmits an electronic code to the ve-
hicle. The engine will start only when
the electronic code in the chip corre-
sponds to the registered ID code for
the vehicle.
Never leave the keys inside the vehicle
when you leave the vehicle.
The system is automatically set when ei-
ther of the following conditions applies.
D When the engine switch is turned from
the “ACC” to the “LOCK” position.
D When 20 seconds have elapsed since
the engine switch is turned from the
“ON” to the “ACC” position.
After opening the driver’s door, inserting
the registered key in the engine switch
and turning it to the “ACC” position auto-
matically cancel the system, which en-
ables the engine to start.
The system is maintenance−free.
For your authorized Toyota dealer or work-
shop, or another duly qualified and
equipped professional, to make you a new
key with a built−in transponder chip, they
will need your key number and key. How-
ever, there is a limit to the number of
additional keys that can be made for you.

The airbag sensor assembly consists of a

The airbag sensor constantly monitors the

impact results in a forward deceleration
beyond the designed threshold level, the
system triggers the airbag inflators. At this
time a chemical reaction in the inflators
very quickly fills the airbags with non−tox-

Air flow selector settings Operating tips


D To cool off your Toyota after it has
been parked in the hot sun, drive with
the windows open for a few minutes.
This vents the hot air, allowing the air
conditioning to cool the interior more
quickly.
D Make sure the air intake grilles in front
of the windshield are not blocked (by
leaves or snow, for example).
D Keep the area under the front seats
clear to allow air to circulate through-
out the vehicle.
D On cold days, set the fan speed to
high for a minute to help clear the
intake ducts of snow or moisture. This
can reduce the amount of fogging on
the windows.
D With air conditioning: When driving
on dusty roads, close all windows. If
dust thrown up by the vehicle is still
drawn into the vehicle after closing the
MS18002d windows, it is recommended that the
air intake selector be set to FRESH
and the fan speed selector to any set-
ting except “ ” (OFF).
D With air conditioning: If following
another vehicle on a dusty road, or
driving in windy and dusty conditions,
it is recommended that the air intake
selector be temporarily set to RECIR-
CULATE, which will close off the out-
side passage and prevent outside air
and dust from entering the vehicle inte-
rior.
D During use, various odors from inside
and outside the vehicle may enter into
and accumulate in the air conditioning
system. This may then cause odor to
be emitted from the vents.
D To reduce potential odors from occur-

CAUTION

D To prevent cargo and luggage from


sliding forward during braking, do
not stack anything in the luggage
compartment higher than the seat-
backs. Keep cargo and luggage low,
as close to the floor as possible.
D Never allow anyone to ride in the
luggage compartment. It is not de-
signed for passengers. They should
ride in their seats with their seat
belts properly fastened. Otherwise,
they are much more likely to suffer
death or serious bodily injury, in
the event of sudden braking or a
collision.
D Do not place anything on the lug-

about and possibly injure people in
the vehicle during sudden braking
or an accident.
D Do not drive with objects left on
top of the instrument panel. They
may interfere with the driver’s field
of view. Or they may move during

MS21003a stolen vehicles. The label is designed so
that once it is applied to a surface, any
attempt to remove it will result in destroy-

How to save fuel and make


Trailer towing your vehicle last longer
Improving fuel economy is easy—just take
it easy. It will help make your vehicle last
longer, too. Here are some specific tips
on how to save money on both fuel and
repairs:
D Keep your tires inflated at the cor-
MS31001 rect pressure. Underinflation causes
tire wear and wastes fuel. See page
269 in Section 7−2 for instructions.
D Do not carry unnecessary weight in
your vehicle. Excess weight puts a
heavier load on the engine, causing
greater fuel consumption.
Toyota does not recommend towing a D Avoid lengthy warm−up idling. Once

er, that on cold winter days this may
take a little longer.
D Accelerate slowly and smoothly.
Avoid jackrabbit starts. Get into high
gear as quickly as possible.
D Avoid long engine idling. If you have
a long wait and you are not in traffic,
it is better to turn off the engine and
start again later.
D Avoid engine lugging or over−rev-
ving. Use a gear position suitable for
the road on which you are travelling.
D Avoid continuous speeding up and
slowing down. Stop−and−go driving
wastes fuel.
D Avoid unnecessary stopping and
braking. Maintain a steady pace. Try
to time the traffic signals so you only
need to stop as little as possible or
take advantage of through streets to
avoid traffic lights. Keep a proper dis-
tance from other vehicles to avoid sud-
den braking. This will also reduce wear
on your brakes.
D Avoid heavy traffic or traffic jams
whenever possible.
D Do not rest your foot on the clutch
or brake pedal. This causes premature
wear, overheating and poor fuel econo-
my.
11 02.18

AYGO WE 99E37E

STARTING AND DRIVING 217

D Maintain a moderate speed on high-


ways. The faster you drive, the greater
the fuel consumption. By reducing your
speed, you will cut down on fuel con-
sumption.
D Keep the front wheels in proper
alignment. Avoid hitting the curb and
slow down on rough roads. Improper
alignment not only causes faster tire
wear but also puts an extra load on
the engine, which, in turn, wastes fuel.
D Keep the bottom of your vehicle free
from mud, etc. This not only lessens
weight but also helps prevent corro-
sion.
D Keep your vehicle tuned−up and in
top shape. A dirty air cleaner, improp-
er valve clearance, dirty plugs, dirty oil
and grease, brakes not adjusted, etc.
all lower engine performance and con-
tribute to poor fuel economy. For longer
life of all parts and lower operating
costs, keep all maintenance work on
schedule, and if you often drive under
severe conditions, see that your vehicle
receives more frequent maintenance.

CAUTION

Never turn off the engine to coast


down hills. Your power steering and
brake booster will not function with-
out the engine running. Also, the
emission control system operates
properly only when the engine is run-
ning.

Rotating tires
When a tire is replaced, the wheel
should always be balanced.
An unbalanced wheel may affect vehicle
handling and tire life. Wheels can get out
of balance with regular use and should
therefore be balanced occasionally.
When replacing a tubeless tire, the air MS72005
valve should also be replaced with a
new one.

Steel wheels

MS72003

Aluminum wheels

To equalize tire wear and help extend


tire life, Toyota recommends that you
rotate your tires approximately every
10000 km (6000 miles). However, the
most appropriate timing for tire rotation
may vary according to your driving hab-
its and road surface conditions.
See “If you have a flat tire” on page 226
in Section 4 for tire change procedure.
When rotating tires, check for uneven
wear and damage. Abnormal wear is usu-
ally caused by incorrect tire pressure, im-

SNOW TIRE SELECTION
If you need snow tires, select tires of
the same size, construction and load
capacity as the originally installed tires.
Do not use tires other than those men-
tioned above. Do not install studded tires
without first checking local regulations for
possible restrictions.

CAUTION

Do not use snow tires other than the


manufacturer’s recommended size, as
this may cause dangerous handling
characteristics resulting in loss of
control. Otherwise, an accident may
occur resulting in death or serious
injuries.

SNOW TIRE INSTALLATION


Snow tires should be installed on all
wheels.
Installing snow tires on the front or rear
wheels only can lead to an excessive dif-
ference in road grip capability between the
front and rear tires which could cause
loss of vehicle control.
When storing removed tires, you should
store them in a cool dry place.
Mark the direction of rotation and be sure
to install them in the same direction when
replacing.

chains vary according to location or
type of road, so always check local reg-
ulations before installing chains.

NOTICE
If the wrong combination of tire and
chain is used, the chains could dam-
age the vehicle body.

CHAIN INSTALLATION
Install the chains on the front tires as
tightly as possible. Do not use tire
chains on the rear tires. Retighten the
chains after driving 0.5—1.0 km
(1/4—1/2 mile).
When installing chains on your tires, care-
fully follow the instructions of the chain
manufacturer.
If wheel covers are used, they will be
scratched by the chain band, so remove
the covers before putting on the chains.
