The range varies depending on
the type of gauge.
When the tachometer needle enters the STRIPED ZONE, this indicates to the
driver that the gears should be shifted before entering the RED ZONE.
The fuel gauge shows approximately how much fuel is remaining in
the tank when the ignition is switched ON. We recommend keeping
the tank over 1/4 full.

● The display indicating a quarter or less remaining fuel has more segments
to show the remaining fuel level in greater detail.
● The direction of the arrow ( ) indicates that the fuel-filler lid is on the left
side of the vehicle.

The following information can be selected by pressing the up or
down part of the INFO switch with the ignition switched ON.
• Approximate distance you can travel on the available fuel
• Average fuel economy
• Current fuel economy
• Average vehicle speed
If you have any problems with your trip computer, consult your Scion
dealer.
■Distance-to-empty mode
The distance-to-empty will be ca lculated and displayed every sec-
ond.
■Average fuel economy mode
The average fuel economy is calculated and displayed every
minute.
To clear the data being displayed, press the INFO button for more
than 1.5 seconds.
After pressing the INFO button, - - - mpg (- - - L/100 km) will be dis-
played for about 1 minute before the fuel economy is recalculated
and displayed.
Trip Computer and INFO Switch
This mode displays t he approximate distance
you can travel on the remaining fuel based on
the fuel economy.
This mode displays the average fuel economy
by calculating the total fuel consumption and
the total traveled distance since purchasing
the vehicle, re-connecting the battery after dis-
connection, or resetting the data.

■Current fuel economy mode
Current fuel economy will be calculated and displayed every 2 sec-
onds.
When you’ve slowed to about 3 mph (5 km/h), - - - mpg (- - - L/100
km) will be displayed.
■Average vehicle speed mode
Average vehicle speed will be calculated and displayed every 10
seconds.
To clear the data being displayed, press the INFO button for more
than 1.5 seconds.
After pressing the INFO button, - - - mph (- - - km/h) will be dis-
played for about 1 minute before the vehicle speed is recalculated
and displayed.
■ Distance-to-empty mode
●Even though the distance-to-empty display may indicate a sufficient amount
of remaining driving distance before ref ueling is required, refuel as soon as
possible if the fuel level is very low or the low fuel warning light illuminates.
● The display may not change unless you add more than approximately 2.3
gal. (9 L, 1.9 Imp.gal.) of fuel.
● The distance-to-empty is the approximate remaining distance the vehicle
can be driven until all the graduation marks in the fuel gauge (indicating the
remaining fuel supply) disappear.
● If there is no past fuel economy information such as after first purchasing
your vehicle or the information is deleted when the battery cables are dis-
connected, the actual distance-to empty/range may differ from the amount
indicated.
This mode displays the current fuel economy
by calculating the amount of fuel consumption
and the distance traveled.
This mode displays th e average vehicle speed
by calculating the distance and the time trav-
eled since connecting the battery or resetting
the data.

When Driving
When the ignition is switched ON,
the wrench indicator light is illumi-
nated and then turns off after a
few seconds.
The wrench indicator light is illu-
minated when the preset mainte-
nance period arrives. Verify the
content and perform mainte-
nance.
Refer to Maintenance Monitor on
P. 420.
The light illuminates continuously
when the engine coolant tempera-
ture is low and turns off after the
engine is warm.
If the low engine coolant tempera-
ture indicator light remains illumi-
nated after the engine has been
sufficiently warmed up, the tem-
perature sensor could have a mal-
function. Consult your Scion
dealer.

Manual Transaxle Operation
The shift pattern of the transaxle
is conventional, as shown.
Depress the clutch pedal all the
way down while shifting; then
release it slowly.
Your vehicle is equipped with a
device to prevent shifting to R
(reverse) by mistake. Push the
shift lever downward and shift to
R.
If shifting to R is difficult, shift back into neutral, release the clutch pedal, and
try again.

WARNING
■ Do not use sudden engine braking on slippery road surfaces or at high
speeds
Shifting down while driving on wet, snowy, or frozen roads, or while driving
at high speeds causes sudden engine braking, which is dangerous. The
sudden change in tire speed could cause the tires to skid. This could lead to
loss of vehicle control and an accident.
■ Always leave the shift lever in 1 or R position and set the parking brake
when leaving the vehicle unattended
Otherwise the vehicle could move and cause an accident.
