241-1. For safe use
For safety drive
Adjust the angle of the seat-
back so that you are sitting
straight up and so that you do
not have to lean forward to
steer. (P. 138)
Adjust the seat so that you can
depress the pedals fully and so
that your arms bend slightly at
the elbow when gripping the
steering wheel. ( P. 138)
Wear the seat belt correctly.
(  P. 26)
Make sure that all occupants are wearing their seat belts before driv-
ing the vehicle. ( P. 2 6 )
Use a child restraint system appropriate for the child until the child
becomes large enough to properly wear the vehicle’s seat belt.
(  P. 52)
Make sure that you can see backwar d clearly by adjusting the inside
and outside rear view mirrors properly. ( P. 144, 145)
For safe driving, adjust the seat and mirror to an appropriate
position before driving.

For safety and security
Your vehicle is equipped with ADVANCED AIRBAGS designed based
on the US motor vehicle safety standards (FMVSS208). The airbag
sensor assembly (ECU) controls airbag deployment based on infor-
mation obtained from the sensors et c. shown in the system compo-
nents diagram above. This informat ion includes crash severity and
occupant information. As the airbags deploy, a chemical reaction in
the inflators quickly fills the airbag s with non-toxic gas to help restrain
the motion of the occupants.
CAUTION
■ SRS airbag precautions
Observe the following precautions regarding the SRS airbags.
Failure to do so may cause death or serious injury.
● The driver and all passengers in the vehicle must wear their seat belts
properly.
The SRS airbags are supplemental devices to be used with the seat belts.
● The SRS driver airbag deploys with considerable force, and can cause
death or serious injury especially if the driver is very close to the airbag.
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) advises:
Since the risk zone for the driver’s airbag is the first 2 - 3 in. (50 - 75 mm)
of inflation, placing yourself 10 in. (250 mm) from your driver airbag pro-
vides you with a clear margin of safety. This distance is measured from
the center of the steering wheel to your breastbone. If you sit less than 10
in. (250 mm) away now, you can change your driving position in several
ways:
• Move your seat to the rear as far as you can while still reaching the ped- als comfortably.
• Slightly recline the back of the seat. Although vehicle designs vary, many drivers can achieve the 10 in. (250
mm) distance, even with the driver seat all the way forward, simply by
reclining the back of the seat somewhat. If reclining the back of your
seat makes it hard to see the road, raise yourself by using a firm, non-
slippery cushion, or raise the seat if your vehicle has that feature.
• If your steering wheel is adjustable, tilt it downward. This points the air- bag toward your chest instead of your head and neck.
The seat should be adjusted as recommended by NHTSA above, while
still maintaining control of the foot pedals, steering wheel, and your view
of the instrument panel controls.

For safety and security
CAUTION
■SRS airbag precautions
● Do not allow a child to stand in front of
the SRS front passenger airbag unit or
sit on the knees of a front passenger.
● Do not allow the front seat occupants to
hold items on their knees.
● Do not lean against the door, the roof
side rail or the front, side and rear pil-
lars.
● Do not allow anyone to kneel on the
passenger seat toward the door or put
their head or hands outside the vehicle.
● Do not allow anyone to kneel on the
rear seat toward the back door.
● Do not attach anything to or lean any-
thing against areas such as the dash-
board, steering wheel pad and lower
portion of the instrument panel.
These items can become projectiles
when the SRS driver, front passenger
and knee airbags deploy.

381-1. For safe use
CAUTION
■SRS airbag precautions
● If a vinyl cover is put on the area where the SRS knee airbags will deploy,
be sure to remove it.
● Do not use seat accessories which cover the parts where the SRS side
airbags and SRS seat cushion airbags inflate as they may interfere with
inflation of the SRS airbags. Such accessories may prevent the SRS side
airbags and SRS seat cushion airbags from activating correctly, disable
the system or cause the SRS side airbags and SRS seat cushion airbags
to inflate accidentally, resulting in death or serious injury.
● Do not strike or apply significant levels of force to the area of the SRS air-
bag components.
Doing so can cause the SRS airbags to malfunction.
● Do not touch any of the component parts immediately after the SRS air-
bags have deployed (inflated) as they may be hot.
● If breathing becomes difficult after the SRS airbags have deployed, open a
door or window to allow fresh air in, or leave the vehicle if it is safe to do
so. Wash off any residue as soon as possible to prevent skin irritation.
● If the areas where the SRS airbags are stored, such as the steering wheel
pad, front and rear pillar, roof side rail garnishes and rear roof headlining
are damaged or cracked, have them replaced by your Scion dealer.
● Do not place anything, such as a cushion, on the front passenger’s seat.
Doing so will disperse the passenger’s weight, which prevents the sensor
from detecting the passenger’s weight properly. As a result, the SRS front
airbags for the front passenger may not deploy in the event of a collision.
●Do not attach anything to areas such as
a door, windshield glass, side and back
door glass, front and rear pillar, roof
side rail, rear roof headlining or assist
grip. (Except for the speed limit label
P. 365)

■If the SRS airbags deploy (inflate)
●Bruising and slight abrasions may result from contact with a deploying
(inflating) SRS airbag.
● A loud noise and white powder will be emitted.
● Parts of the airbag module (steering wheel hub, airbag cover and inflator) as
well as the front seats, parts of the front and rear pillars, roof side rails and
rear roof headlining, may be hot for several minutes. The airbag itself may
also be hot.
● The windshield may crack.
CAUTION
■Modification and disposal of SRS airbag system components
Do not dispose of your vehicle or per form any of the following modifications
without consulting your Scion dealer. The SRS airbags may malfunction or
deploy (inflate) accidentally, causing death or serious injury.
● Installation, removal, disassembly and repair of the SRS airbags
● Repairs, modifications, removal or replacement of the steering wheel,
instrument panel, dashboard, seats or seat upholstery, front, side and rear
pillars, roof side rails or roof headlining
● Repairs or modifications of the front fender, front and rear bumper, or side
or rear of the occupant compartment
● Installation of snow plows, winches, etc. to the front grille (bull bars or kan-
garoo bar etc.)
● Installation of racks etc. to the back door (strap racks, bicycle rack etc.)
● Modifications to the vehicle’s suspension system
● Installation of electronic devices such as mobile two-way radios and CD
players
● Modifications to your vehicle for a person with a physical disability

441-1. For safe use
●The pad section of the steering wheel,
dashboard near the front passenger air-
bag or lower portion of the instrument
panel is scratched, cracked, or other-
wise damaged.
● The seat cushion surface is scratched,
cracked, or otherwise damaged.
● The surface of the seats with the side
airbag is scratched, cracked, or other-
wise damaged.
● The portion of the front pillars, rear pil-
lars or roof side rail garnishes (padding)
containing the curtain shield airbags
inside is scratched, cracked, or other-
wise damaged.
● The portion of the rear roof headlining or
rear pillars containing the rear window
curtain shield airbag inside is scratched,
cracked, or otherwise damaged.

822-1. Electric vehicle
CAUTION
■Road accident cautions
Follow the instructions described below to reduce the risk of death or seri-
ous injury, and immediately contact your Scion dealer:
● Stop the vehicle in a safe place, apply the parking brake while depressing
the brake pedal, shift the shift lever to P and turn the EV system off.
Then, slowly release the brake pedal.
● Do not touch the high voltage parts, cables (orange) and connectors.
● If electric wires are exposed inside or outside your vehicle, an electric
shock may occur. Never touch exposed electric wires.
● Do not touch the traction battery if liquid is leaking from or adhered to it.
If electrolyte (Organic Carbonate-based electrolyte) from the traction bat-
tery comes into contact with the eyes or skin, it could cause blindness or
skin wounds. In the unlikely event that it comes into contact with the eyes
or skin, wash it off immediately with a large amount of water, and seek
immediate medical attention.
● If electrolyte is leaking from the traction battery, do not approach the vehi-
cle.
Even in the unlikely event that the traction battery has been damaged, the
internal construction of the battery will prevent a large amount of electro-
lyte from leaking out. However, if electrolyte leaks, vapors will be emitted.
These vapors are an irritant to skin and eyes and could cause acute poi-
soning if inhaled.
● Do not bring burning or high-temperat ure items close to the electrolyte.
The electrolyte may ignite and cause a fire.
● If a fire occurs in the electric vehicle, leave the vehicle as soon as possi-
ble. Never use a fire extinguisher that is not meant for electrical fires.
Using even a small amount of water may be dangerous.
● If your vehicle needs to be towed, do so with the front wheels raised. If the
wheels connected to the electric motor (traction motor) are on the ground
when towing, the motor may continue to generate electricity. This may
cause an electricity leakage leading to a fire. ( P. 330)
