DorWey Driving School - Starting the Car

 

Starting Sequence for the Toyota Yaris (The Yaris requires the clutch to be pressed fully down before the engine will start.)

Preparing the car to move off requires several inputs from the driver. At first the sequence may be hard to remember but very shortly, with the help of this web page, you will be carrying it out with little difficulty.

The starting sequence, listed below, assumes that the driver takes all the appropriate safety checks before moving off!

NB Just before starting the engine you should always make one final check that the car is in neutral.
  1. Press the clutch pedal all the way down.

  2. Whilst holding the steering wheel with the left hand, turn the engine on with the other hand.

  3. With clutch pedal still down, select first gear.

  4. Lightly press the gas pedal to increase the revs. and then bring the clutch pedal up to bite point.

  5. Handbrake up with button in (but don't drop it yet).

  6. (All round observations and safety checks)

  7. When it is safe all around - allow the handbrake to drop to the floor. Briefly pause on the pedals to allow the car to get going and then, whilst gently applying gas, allow the clutch to come up s-l-o-w-l-y all the way to the top.
