The displayed values in the multi−informa-
tion display indicate general driving condi-
tions. Accuracy varies with driving habits
and road conditions.
When the engine switch is on, the last
previously used mode displayed just be-
fore the engine switch is off will appear.
If the electrical power source has been
disconnected from the multi −information
display, the display will automatically be
set to the initial mode.
When the headlight switch is turned on,
the brightness of the display will be re-
duced.
You can adjust the brightness of the dis-
play. To adjust the brightness, see “Instru-
ment panel light control” on page 94.
CAUTION
Do not operate the switches while the
vehicle is moving. Make sure to oper-
ate the switches when the vehicle is
stopped.
1. Odometer
The total distance the vehicle has been
driven is displayed.
2. Two trip meters
Two different distances are displayed
independently.
You can use one trip meter to calculate
the fuel economy and the other to mea-
sure the distance on each trip. All trip
meter data are cancelled if the electrical
power source is disconnected.
To reset the trip meter A to zero, display
the meter A reading, then push and hold
the knob until the meter is set to zero.
The same process can be applied for re-
setting the trip meter B. 3. Instantaneous fuel consumption (“MPG”)
The instantaneous fuel consumption is
calculated and displayed based on dis-
tance and fuel consumption with the
engine running.
Note that an accurate figure may not be
shown in the following cases.The vehicle is stopped with the engine
running. (The display will indicate the
extremely high fuel consumption.)
The vehicle is driving down a long
slope, applying the engine brake. (The
display will indicate the extremely low
fuel consumption.)
The calculation is reset when the engine
switch is turned off. 4. Average fuel consumption (“AVG. MPG”)
Average fuel consumption is calculated
and displayed based on total driving
distance and total fuel consumption
with the engine running.
Every time you refuel the vehicle, the cal-
culation is reset. 5. Average vehicle speed (“AVG. MPH”)
Average vehicle speed is calculated and
displayed based on total driving dis-
tance and total driving time with the
engine running.

(b) Driver’s Seat Belt Reminder Lightand Buzzer
The light and buzzer act as a reminder to
buckle up the driver’s seat belt.
Once the engine switch is turned to the
“ON” or “START” position, the reminder
light and buzzer come on if the driver’s
seat belt is not fastened. Unless the driv-
er fastens the belt, the light continues
flashing and 5 beeps sound.
If the vehicle speed rises above 20 km/h
(12 mph) with the seat belt unfastened,
the buzzer will sound for about 10 sec-
onds. Then, if the seat belt is still unfas-
tened, the buzzer will sound in a different
tone for 20 seconds. Even if the vehicle
speed drops below 20 km/h (12 mph), the
buzzer will continue to sound. To stop the
buzzer, fasten the seat belt. If the buzzer
still sounds, make sure the front passen-
ger ’s seat belt is fastened.
The vehicle speed linked seat belt remind-
er buzzer can be disabled. For details,
contact your Scion dealer.
However, Scion recommends that the seat
belt reminder buzzer be operational to
alert the driver and front passenger that
the seat belts are not fastened. (c) Front Passenger ’s Seat Belt
Reminder Light and Buzzer
The light acts as a reminder to have the
front passenger buckle up the seat belt.
Once the engine switch is turned to the
“ON” or “START” position, the reminder
light comes on if a passenger sits in the
front passenger seat and does not fasten
the seat belt. Unless the front passenger
fastens the belt, the light continues flash-
ing.
If the vehicle speed rises above 20 km/h
(12 mph) with the seat belt unfastened,
the buzzer will sound for about 10 sec-
onds. Then, if the seat belt is still unfas-
tened, the buzzer will sound in a different
tone for 20 seconds. Even if the vehicle
speed drops below 20 km/h (12 mph), the
buzzer will continue to sound. To stop the
buzzer, fasten the seat belt. If the buzzer
still sounds, make sure the driver ’s seat
belt is fastened.
If luggage or other load is placed on the
front passenger seat, depending on its
weight, the reminder light to flash and
buzzer to sound.
The vehicle speed linked seat belt remind-
er buzzer can be disabled. For details,
contact your Scion dealer. (d) Engine Oil Replacement Reminder
Light
This light acts as a reminder to replace
the engine oil.
This light will come on when the engine
switch is turned to the “ON” position, and
will go off after a few seconds.
When you drive for about 7200 km (4500
miles) after engine oil replacement, this
light illuminates for about 3 seconds and
then flashes for about 12 seconds after
the engine switch is turned to the “ON”
position. If you continue driving without
engine oil replacement, and if the driving
range exceeds 8000 km (5000 miles), the
light will come on when the engine switch
is turned to the “ON” position. The light
will remain on thereafter.
If the light is flashing, we recommend that
you replace the engine oil at an early
opportunity depending on the driving and
road conditions. If the light comes on,
replace it as soon as possible.
The system must be reset after engine oil
replacement. Reset the system by follow-
ing the procedure below: 1. Turn the engine switch to the “OFF” position with the odometer reading
shown. (For details, see “Multi −informa-
tion display” on page 102.)

engine switch is turned to the “ON” posi-
tion, and goes off when the engine is
started.
When there are problems in the charging
system while the engine is r unning, the
warning light comes on.
NOTICE
When the charging system warning
light comes on while the engine is

This means that the warning light sys-
tem is operating properly.
If the lamp remains on, first check the
following.
Empty fuel tank
If the fuel tank is empty, refuel immedi-
ately.
Loose fuel tank cap
If the fuel tank cap is loose, securely
tighten it.
These cases are temporary malfunctions.
The malfunction indicator lamp will go off
after taking several driving trips.
If the lamp does not go off even after
several trips, contact your Scion dealer as
soon as possible.
If the fuel tank is not empty or the fuel
tank cap is not loose...
There is a problem somewhere in the
engine, emission control system, auto-
matic transmission electrical system or

maintenance (I/M) programs” on page 236.
(g) Low Fuel Level Warning Light
This light comes on when the fuel level
in the tank becomes very low. Fill up the
tank as soon as possible.
On inclines or curves, due to the move-
ment of fuel in the tank, the low fuel level
warning light may come on earlier than
usual.
(h) Low Engine Oil Pressure Warning Light
This light warns that the engine oil pres-
sure is too low.
If it flickers or stays on while you are

An y ti res wh i ch are over 6 years
old must be checked by a qualified
technician even if damage is not
obvious.
Tires deteriorate with age even if they
have never or seldom been used.
This applies also to the spare tire and
tires stored for future use.
REPLACING YOUR TIRES
When replacing a tire, use a tire of
the same size and construction,
and the same or greater maximum
load as the originally installed
tires.
Using any other size or type of tire
may seriously affect handling, ride,
speedometer/odometer calibration,
ground clearance, and clearance be-
tween the body and tires or snow
chains.
Check that the maximum load of the
replaced tire is greater than 1/2 of the
Gross Axle Weight Ratings (GAWR)
of either the front axle or the rear
axle, whichever is greater. As for the
maximum load of the tire, see the load
limit at maximum cold tire inflation
pressure mentioned on the sidewall
of the tire, and as for the Gross Axle
Weight Ratings (GAWR), see the Cer-
tification Label. For details about the
sidewall of the tire and the Certifica-
tion Label, see pages 169 and 166.
CAUTION
Observe the following instruc-
tions. Otherwise, an accident
may occur resulting in death or
serious injuries.

Do not mix radial, bias belted,
or biasply tires on your ve-
hicle, as this may cause dan-
gerous handling characteris-
tics resulting in loss of control.
 Do not use tires other than the
manufacturer’s recommended
size, as this may cause danger-
ous handling characteristics
resulting in loss of control.
