The REMOTEENGINESTARTERallows you to start your engine from outside the vehicle. It uti-
lizes your vehicle’s keyless entry remote, so there is no need to carry around an extra remote.
The REMOTEENGINESTARTERis operated the same way for vehicles equipped with or without
the Smart Entry / Push Start system; simply push the remote’s LOCK button in a quick, two-
step sequence. In addition, the REMOTEENGINESTARTERcan activate the heater or air condi-
tioner, providing you with a comfortable cabin upon entry. As an added convenience, the
REMOTEENGINESTARTERcan also activate the defroster (when preset) to clear up the wind-
shield during cold weather.
To ensure your safety, and the safety of anyone near the vehicle, the REMOTEENGINE
STARTERis designed to shut the engine off when it detects any attempt to enter or move the
vehicle after a remote engine start. Please consult your Scion dealer for more details.
NOTE: To utilize the REMOTEENGINESTARTER, your vehicle must have an automatic transmis-
sion; it cannot be used for manual transmission models. The transmission range for remote
start may be shorter than the remote’s basic keyless entry operation. Range can also be
affected by the surrounding environment. Laws in some communities require that the vehicle
be within view of anyone using the REMOTEENGINESTARTER. In some states, use of the
REMOTEENGINESTARTERmay violate state or local laws. Before using the REMOTEENGINE
STARTER, check your state and local laws.
For any questions or concerns about the REMOTEENGINESTARTER, please call Scion
Customer Experience at (866) 707-2466.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION
Do not start the engine if a child or pet are
present in or near the vehicle. Interior power
components such as windows and seats can
accidentally be switched on and lead to injury.
Do not check the engine while it is still warm
after being remotely started. Allow at least five
minutes for the engine to cool to avoid being
burned.
Do not start the engine near dry foliage,
paper, or other flammable substances. The
exhaust tube and emissions can create a fire
hazard at high temperatures.
Do not use the REMOTEENGINESTARTERfrom
a distance where the vehicle cannot be seen.
Children or small animals should not be near
the vehicle.
Do not start the engine in an enclosed area
(such as a garage or indoor parking lot) where
too much exhaust may accumulate and create
a hazardous environment with potential for
CO2poisoning.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION
Do not start the engine with the body cover
still on the vehicle. The exhaust tube and

you intend to drive the vehicle; excessive
engine starting consumes fuel and battery
power.
To help reduce the risk of injury during engine
service, the REMOTEENGINESTARTERwill not
function while the hood is open.
Always shut off components such as the wind-
shield wipers and radio after parking. If left on,
such components may be damaged by
remote engine start in extremely cold weather.
Check that all vehicle windows are closed and
all doors locked after parking.
