Turn on the air conditioner by pressing the A/C switch.
After cooling begins, adjust the f an control dial and temperature
control dial as needed to maintain maximum comfort.
■ Cooling
●When maximum cooling is desired, set the temperature control dial to the
extreme cold position and set the air intake selector to the recirculated air
position, then set the fan control dial to position 4.
● If warmer air is desired at floor level, set the mode selector dial to the
position and adjust the temperature control dial to maintain maximum com-
fort.
● The air to the floor is warmer than air to the face (except when the tempera-
ture control dial is set at the extreme hot or cold position).

NOTICE
If the air conditioner is used while driving up long hills or in heavy traffic,
monitor the engine coolant temperature warning light to see if it is illumi-
nated or flashing ( P. 148).
The air conditioner may cause engine overheating. If the warning light is
illuminated or flashing, turn the air conditioning off ( P. 502).

inspections at the indicated intervals to ensure safe and dependable
operation.
Bring any problem to the attention of your Scion dealer or qualified
service technician as soon as possible.
■When Refueling
● Brake and clutch fluid level ( P. 434)
● Engine coolant level ( P. 431)
● Engine oil level ( P. 430)
● Washer fluid level ( P. 435)
■At Least Monthly
Tire inflation pressures ( P. 446)
■At Least Twice a Year (For Example, Every Spring and Fall)
You can do the following scheduled maintenance items if you have
some mechanical ability and a few basic tools and if you closely fol-
low the directions in this manual.
● Engine coolant ( P. 431)
● Engine oil ( P. 429)
Improper or incomplete service ma y result in problems. This sec-

Maintenance and Care
Engine Coolant
Inspect the antifreeze protection and coolant level in the coolant res-
ervoir at least once a year—at t he beginning of the winter season—
and before traveling where temperatures may drop below freezing.
Inspect the condition and connecti ons of all cooling system and
heater hoses.
Replace any that are swollen or deteriorated.
The coolant should be at full in the
radiator and between the F and L
marks on the coolant reservoir
when the engine is cool.
Cooling fan
Cooling system cap
Coolant reservoir
If it is at or near L, add enough coolant to the coolant reservoir to pro-
vide freezing and corrosion protecti on and to bring the level to F.
Securely tighten the coolant reserv oir tank cap after adding coolant.
If the coolant reservoir is empty or new coolant is required frequently,
consult your Scion dealer.
Changing the coolant should be done by your Scion dealer.

6-5. Overheating
Overheating
If the high engine coolant temperature warning light illuminates:
Drive safely to the side of the road and park off the right-of-way.
Put a vehicle with an automatic transaxle in park (P), a manual tran-
saxle in neutral.
Apply the parking brake.
Turn off the air conditioner.
Check whether coolant or steam is escaping from the engine com-
partment.
If steam is coming from the engine compartment:
Do not go near the front of the vehicle. Stop the engine.
Wait until the steam dissipates, then open the hood and start the
engine.
If neither coolant nor steam is escaping:
Open the hood and idle the engine until it cools.
Make sure the cooling fan is operat ing, then turn off the engine after
the temperature has decreased.
When cool, check the coolant level.
If it is low, look for coolant leaks from the radiator and hoses.
■If you find a leak or other damage , or if coolant is still leaking:
Stop the engine and call your Scion dealer.

Coolant reservoir
If the high engine coolant temper ature warning light illuminates,
the vehicle loses power, or you hear a loud knocking or pinging
noise, the engine is probably too hot.
