“
” on the left side of screen and select “Display” on the setup screen. Then
select “Camera” to adjust the screen brightness and contrast.

Manual or Scion Bespoke Audio with Navigation Owner’s Manual.
The rear view monitor system camera is located as shown in the illustration.
REAR VIEW MONITOR SYSTEM CAMERA
The camera uses a special lens. The distance of the image that appears on the
screen differs from the actual distance.
When the camera is used under fluorescent lights, sodium lights or mercury lights
etc., the lights and the illuminated areas may appear to flicker.
In the following cases, it may become difficult to see the images on the screen,
even when the system is functioning:
• In the dark (for example, at night)
• When the temperature near the lens is high or low
• When water droplets are adhering to the camera, or when humidity is
high (for example, when it rains)
• When foreign matter (for example, snow or mud) is adhering to the camera
• When the camera has scratches or dirt on it
• When the sun or the beam of headlights is shining directly into the camera

INFORMATION
*Smear effect
A phenomenon that occurs when a bright light (for example, sunlight reflected off
the vehicle body) is picked up by the camera; when transmitted by the camera,
the light source appears to have a vertical streak above and below it.
If a bright light (for example,
sunlight reflected off the vehicle
body) is picked up by the camera,
a Smear effect* may occur.

Star Safety SystemTM
VSC helps prevent loss of traction during cornering by reducing engine power and
applying brake force to selected wheels.
Toyota’s VSC monitors steering angle and the direction your vehicle is traveling.
When it senses that the front or rear wheels begin to lose traction, VSC reduces
engine power and applies braking to selected wheels. This helps restore traction
and vehicle control.
Vehicle Stability Control (VSC)
Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS)
Brake Assist (BA)
ABS helps prevent brakes from locking up by “pulsing” brake pressure to each
wheel. This limits brake lockup and helps provide directional control for the
current road conditions.
Toyota’s ABS sensors detect which wheels are locking up and limits wheel lockup
by “pulsing” each wheel’s brakes independently. Pulsing releases brake pressure
repeatedly for fractions of a second. This helps the tires attain the traction that
current road conditions will allow, helping you to stay in directional control. Brake Assist is designed to detect sudden or “panic” braking, and then add braking
pressure to help decrease the vehicle’s stopping distance. When there’s only a
split second to react, Brake Assist can add additional brake pressure more quickly
than just the driver alone can. VSC helps prevent loss of traction during cornering by reducing engine power, and
Traction Control helps maintain traction on loose gravel and wet, icy, or uneven
surfaces by applying brake force to the spinning wheel(s).
Toyota’s TRAC sensors are activated when one of the drive wheels starts to slip.
TRAC limits engine output and applies the brakes to the spinning wheel. This
transfers power to the wheels that still have traction to help keep you on track.
Traction Control (TRAC)
Electronic Brake Force Distribution (EBD)
Toyota’s ABS technology has Electronic Brake-force Distribution (EBD) to help
maintain control and balance when braking. Abrupt stops can cause a vehicle
to tilt forward, reducing the braking power of the rear wheels. EBD responds to
sudden stops by redistributing brake force to enhance the braking effectiveness of
all four wheels.
SAFETY AND EMERGENCY FEATURES
Your new Scion vehicle comes standard with the Star Safety SystemTM, which
combines Traction Control (TRAC), Electronic Brake-force Distribution (EBD),
Vehicle Stability Control (VSC), Brake Assist (BA), an Anti-lock Braking System (ABS)
and Smart Stop Technology (SST).
