For your information
Main Owner’s Manual
Please note that this manual applies to all models and all equipment, includ-
ing options. Therefore, you may find some explanations for equipment not
installed on your vehicle.
All specifications provided in this manual are current at the time of printing.
However, because of the Scion policy of continual product improvement, we
reserve the right to make changes at any time without notice.
Depending on specifications, the vehicle shown in the illustrations may differ
from your vehicle in terms of equipment.
Noise from under vehicle after turning off the engine
Approximately five hours after the engine is turned off, you may hear sound
coming from under the vehicle for several minutes. This is the sound of a fuel
evaporation leakage check and, it does not indicate a malfunction.
Accessories, spare parts and modification of your Scion
A wide variety of non-genuine spare parts and accessories for Scion vehicles
are currently available on the market. You should know that Scion does not
warrant these products and is not responsible for their performance, repair,
or replacement, or for any damage they may cause to, or adverse effect they
may have on, your Scion vehicle.
This vehicle should not be modified with non-genuine Scion products.
Modification with non-genuine Scion products could affect its performance,
safety or durability, and may even violate governmental regulations. In
addition, damage or performance problems resulting from the modification
may not be covered under warranty.

electronic systems such as:
●Multiport fuel injection system/sequential multiport fuel injection system

● SRS airbag system and seat belt pretensioner system
Be sure to check with your Scion dealer for precautionary measures or spe-
cial instructions regarding installation of a mobile two-way radio system.
Vehicle data recordings
Your Scion is equipped with several sophisticated computers that will record
certain data, such as:
• Engine speed
• Accelerator status
• Brake status
• Vehicle speed
• Shift position (except manual transmission)
The recorded data varies according to the vehicle grade level and options
with which it is equipped. Furthermore, these computers do not record con-
versations, sounds or pictures.
● Data usage
Scion may use the data recorded in these computers to diagnose malfunc-
tions, conduct research and development, and improve quality.
Scion will not disclose the recorded data to a third party except:
• With the consent of the vehicle owner or with the consent of the lessee if the vehicle is leased
• In response to an official request by the police, a court of law or a govern-
ment agency
• For use by Scion in a lawsuit
• For research purposes where the data is not tied to a specific vehicle or
vehicle owner
