ow that you’ve got your Scion on the road, you want to make
sure it keeps going. That’s where scheduled maintenance
comes in. Taking your car in for regular service will help your
ride run better and last longer. It will keep your repair bills down, too.
This booklet makes it easy to keep your Scion running smoothly. The
maintenance log lists all the factory-recommended services and tells
you when your vehicle needs them. You’ll also find information on how
Scion and your dealership can help you with maintenance and repairs.
Be sure to look this booklet over carefully and keep it in your glove box.
Do what it says and your Scion should be happy for many miles to come.
Complimentary Oil Changes
To help you get started with regular maintenance, Scion provides your
vehicle’s first three oil changes on a complimentary basis. To find out
how to obtain your complimentary oil changes, see page 17.
Remember that changing the oil is just one of the maintenance ser-
vices that should be performed regularly on your Scion. Make sure that
all the other services recommended in this booklet are performed on
your car as well.
Put It In Writing
To help you keep track of your Scion’s service history, each mainte-
nance chart in this booklet includes:
›Boxes to check for each service item performed
›Space for the maintenance provider to include a service
verification stamp
›Space to write the date and mileage that service is performed
Documenting your service history may make your car worth more when
you’re ready to sell. There’s a reason smart people write things down.
In addition to scheduled maintenance, your vehicle requires
general maintenance such as fluid checks and visual inspections.
These procedures are explained in the “Vehicle Maintenance and
Care” section of the
Owner’s Manual. To keep your Scion out of
trouble, be sure to perform these procedures regularly.
Scion is a marque of Toyota Motor Sales, U.S.A., Inc.

Maintenance Records
To make sure your warranty coverage stays intact, you need to maintain
your Scion according to the recommendations in this booklet. You should
keep records of vehicle maintenance, including date and mileage at
time of service and a description of service items performed and parts
installed. The scheduled maintenance log can help you keep track of
this information. If you sell your car, be sure to give your maintenance
records to the new owner.
Scion will not deny a warranty claim solely because you don’t have
records to show that you maintained your vehicle. However, damage or
failures caused by lack of proper maintenance are not covered under
warranty.
Maintenance Providers
You can have maintenance and repair services done by any automotive
service provider you choose, or you can do them yourself. Scion won’t
deny a warranty claim solely because you used a service provider other
than a Scion dealership for maintenance and repairs. However, damage
or failures caused by improper maintenance or repairs are not covered
under warranty.
Note: Only Scion dealerships and Toyota dealerships are authorized to
provide warranty service/repairs for your Scion.
Dealer-Recommended Maintenance
Your dealer may recommend more frequent maintenance intervals or
more maintenance services than those listed in the scheduled mainte-
nance log. You don’t need to have these additional services performed
to maintain your warranty coverage. Ask your dealer to explain any
recommended maintenance that is not included in the scheduled
maintenance log.
For a complete description of Scion warranty coverages, check out
the booklet called
2004 Owner’s Warranty Information. You’ll find it
in your glove box.

Determining the Proper Maintenance Interval
Depending on your circumstances, you should obtain maintenance for
your Scion every 5,000 miles or every 7,500 miles. Follow these guide-
lines to determine which interval to use.
5,000-Mile Intervals
Use 5,000-mile intervals if you primarily operate your vehicle under
any of the following conditions:
›Driving on unpaved or dusty roads.
›Using a car-top carrier.
›Repeated trips of less than five miles in temperatures
below freezing.
7,500-Mile Intervals
Use 7,500-mile intervals if you primarily operate your vehicle under
conditions other than those listed above.
Note: If you drive your vehicle under any of the special operating con-
ditions noted on the following page, you may need to perform specific
services at 5,000-mile intervals. See the 5,000-mile maintenance
charts for details.
Special Operating Conditions
In addition to standard maintenance items for both 5,000-mile and
7,500-mile intervals, the scheduled maintenance log indicates services
that should be performed on vehicles that are driven under especially
demanding conditions. Specific conditions require specific services, as
indicated on the following page. The scheduled maintenance log indi-
cates at which mileage/time intervals each service should be performed.
You should perform these additional maintenance services if you
drive primarily under any of the conditions noted. If you drive only
occasionally under these conditions, it is not necessary to perform
the additional services.

To help you get started with regular maintenance, Scion provides your
vehicle’s first three oil changes on a complimentary basis. While they
don’t have to be your initial three oil changes, the oil changes must be
obtained within 3 years or 36,000 miles (whichever occurs first) of your
vehicle’s original in-service date. If you bought your Scion used and the
previous owner did not use all three oil changes, you are entitled to the
remaining complimentary oil changes if your car is still within 3 years
or 36,000 miles of its original in-service date.
To obtain a complimentary oil change, call a Scion dealership or partici-
pating Toyota dealership to make an appointment. The dealership will
verify that the service was performed by completing one of the boxes
on the inside back cover of this booklet.
Complimentary oil changes include change of engine oil and oil filter
only. You are responsible for the cost of any other services performed
at the time of your complimentary oil changes, including other mainte-
nance services listed in the scheduled maintenance log.
