CAUTION
■
If a safety system warning light does not come on
Should a safety system light such as ABS and the SRS airbag warning light
not come on when you start the engine, this could mean that these systems
are not available to help protect you in an accident, which could result in
death or serious injury. Have the vehicle inspected by your Scion dealer
immediately if this occurs.

vehicle’s systems. ( P. 273)

the lights do not turn off. Have the vehicle inspected by your Scion
dealer.
*2: The indicator flashes to indicate that the system is operating.
