How do you charge your phone? 2nd gen 5dr hatchback - Toyota Yaris Forums

Wellpenny · 03-06-2021, 08:59 AM

Hi, I've just bought a 2nd hand 2011 yaris but I didn't get to play with it as much and it later occurred to me that I don't remember seeing that little cigarette holder button.

To anyone that own's a 2nd gen hatch YRS auto, does it have one and if not how do you charge your phones? I was planning on using an adapter.

Was it just somewhere at the bottom that I missed or is there a secret plug I should've undone?

The layout of the middle part was very different compared to other cars so sadly it wasn't as obvious to me.

(No charger spot = no phone = no GPS = getting lost = not good) so I'm a tad concerned...

Page 3 of your Owner's Manual. Just below left of the Climate Control Panel. Yours will probably be to the right as you drive on the wrong side

I upgraded my headunit which has a USB port:

Anyway I don't use it to charge my phone anymore as I noticed that it affects the battery life span. I'd prefer to use a portable power/battery bank now.
