CAUTION
Before driving, be sure that the doors
are closed and locked, especially
when small children are in the ve-
hicle. Along with the proper use of
seat belts, locking the doors helps
prevent the driver and passengers
from being thrown out from the ve-
hicle during an accident. It also helps
prevent the doors from being opened
unintentionally.
Power windows
12A007
The windows can be operated with the
switch on each side door.
The power windows work when the ignition
switch is in the “ON” position.
OPERATING THE DRIVER’S WINDOW
Use the switch on the driver’s door.
Normal operation: The window moves as
long as you hold the switch.
To open: Lightly push down the switch.
To close: Pull up the switch.
12A008
Automatic operation (to open only):
Push the switch completely down and then
release it. The window will fully open. To
stop the window partway, lightly pull the
switch up and then release it.

When refueling, turn off the engine.
CAUTION
Do not smoke, cause sparks or al-
low open flames when refueling.

When opening the cap, do not re-
move the cap quickly. In hot weath-
er, fuel under pressure could cause
injury by spraying out of the filler
neck if the cap is suddenly re-
moved.

2. To remove the fuel tank cap, turnthe cap slowly counterclockwise,
then pause slightly before removing
it.
It is not unusual to hear a slight swoosh
when the cap is opened. When installing,
turn the cap clockwise till you hear a
click.
If the cap is not tightened securely, the
malfunction indicator lamp comes on.
Make sure the cap is tightened securely. The indicator lamp goes off after driving
several times. If the indicator lamp does
not go off, contact your Scion dealer as
soon as possible.
CAUTION
Make sure the cap is tightened se-
curely to prevent fuel sp
illage in
the event of an accident.
Use only a genuine fuel tank cap
for replacement. It is designed to
regulate fuel tank pressure.

Tilting operation
To operate the moon roof, use the
switch beside the front interior light.
The moon roof works when the ignition
switch is in the “ON” position.
The sun shade can be operated or closed
by hand.
Sliding operation—
To open: Push the switch on the “OPEN”
side.
The roof will open and stop partway 62
mm (2.4 in.) from the fully opened posi-
tion. When you push “OPEN” side again,
the moon roof will open fully. To stop the
roof partway, push the switch on either
the “OPEN” or “CLOSE” side briefly.
As driving with the moon roof opened fully
will cause wind throbs, we recommend
you to drive with the moon roof partway
62 mm (2.4 in.) from the fully opened
position.
The sun shade will be opened together
with the roof.
To close: Push the switch on the “CLOSE”
side.
The roof will fully close. To stop the roof
partway, push the switch on either the
“OPEN” or “CLOSE” side briefly.Tilting operation—
To tilt up: Push the switch on the
“CLOSE” side.
You may stop the moon roof at any de-
sired position. The roof will move while
the switch is being pushed and stop when
released.
To tilt down: Push the switch on the
“OPEN” side.
Jam protection function (closing opera-
tion only):
If something gets caught be-
tween the moon roof and frame during
closing operation, the moon roof stops and
opens halfway.
If the moon roof receives a strong impact,
this function may work even if nothing is
caught.
If the battery is disconnected or run
down, the moon roof may not operate
automatically after you reconnect, replace
or recharge the battery. In any of these
cases, you should normalize the moon
roof.
To normalize the moon roof, push and
hold the moon roof switch on the “CLOSE”
side until the moon roof tilts all the way
up and then tilts down a little automatical-
ly.
