Miles or Months?
Scion recommends obtaining
scheduled maintenance for your vehicle
every 5,000 miles or six months,
whichever comes first.
For example:
>If you drive 5,000 miles in less than
six months, you should obtain
maintenance at5,000 miles- don’t
wait until six months.
>If at six months you have driven less
than 5,000 miles, you should obtain
maintenance atsix months- don’t
wait until 5,000 miles.
Be sure to keep an eye on your mileage
so that you obtain maintenance when
recommended. If you are a low-mileage
driver, mark your calendar to remind
yourself to obtain maintenance every
six months.
Special Operating Conditions
In addition to standard maintenance
items, the maintenance log indicates
services that should be performed on
vehicles that are driven under
especially demanding conditions.
These “special operating conditions”
and their required maintenance items
are clearly indicated in each chart.
NOTE:You should perform these
additional maintenance services
only if the majority of your driving is
done under the special operating
conditions indicated. If you only
occasionally drive under these
circumstances, it is not necessary
to perform the additional services.
Engine Oil Selection
Please refer to your Owner’s Manual
for the specific oil viscosity rating
recommended for your vehicle/engine
type.
