(c) Front Passenger ’s Seat BeltReminder Light
This light reminds you to buckle up the
front passenger ’s seat belt.
Once the ignition key is turned to the
“ON” or “START” position, the reminder
light comes on if a passenger sits in the
front passenger seat and does not fasten
the seat belt. Unless the front passenger
fastens the belt, the light keeps flashing.
If luggage or other load is placed on the
front passenger seat, depending on its
weight and how it is placed on the seat,
built −in sensors in the seat cushion may
detect the pressure, causing the reminder
light to flash. (d) Engine Oil Replacement Reminder
Light
This light reminds you when to replace
the engine oil.
This light will come on when the ignition
key is turned to the “ON” position, and
will go off after a few seconds.
When you drive for about 8000 km (5000
miles) after the engine oil replacement,
this light illuminates for about 3 seconds
and then flashes for about 12 seconds
after the ignition key is turned to the “ON”
position. If you continue driving without
engine oil replacement, and if the driving
range exceeds 12000 km (7500 miles), the
light will come on when the ignition key
is turned to the “ON” position. The light
will remain on thereafter.
If the light is flashing, we recommend that
you replace the engine oil at an early
opportunity depending on the driving and
road conditions. If the light comes on,
replace it as soon as possible.
The system must be reset after the en-
gine oil replacement. Reset the system by
following the procedure below: 1. Turn the ignition key to the “OFF” posi- tion with the odometer reading shown.
(For details, see “Odometer and two
trip meters” on page 75.) 2. Turn the ignition key to the “ON” posi-
tion while holding down the trip meter
reset knob.
Hold down the knob for at least 5 sec-
onds. The light goes off, and the display
shows zero for 1 second and changes to
the odometer reading.
If the system fails to reset, the light will
remain on or keep flashing.
(e) Discharge Warning Light
This light warns that the battery is being
discharged.
If it comes on while you are driving, there
is a problem somewhere in the charging
system.
The engine ignition will continue to oper-
ate, however, until the battery is dis-
charged. Turn off the air conditioning,
blower, radio, etc., and drive directly to
the nearest Scion dealer or repair shop.
NOTICE
Do not continue driving if the engine
drive belt is broken or loose.
