If the engine coolant temperature gauge
needle is not displayed, there may be a
problem in the system. In this case, con-
tact your Scion dealer as soon as pos-
sible.
NOTICE
Do not remove the thermostat in
the engine cooling system as this
may cause the engine to overheat.
The thermostat is designed to con-
trol the flow of coolant to keep the
temperature of the engine within
the specified operating range.
 Do not continue driving with an
overheated engine. See “If your
vehicle overheats” on page 193.
Tachometer
The tachometer indicates engine speed
in thousands of rpm (revolutions per
minute). Use it while driving to select
correct shift points and to prevent en-
gine lugging and over–revving.
Driving with the engine running too fast
causes excessive engine wear and poor
fuel economy. Remember, in most cases
the slower the engine speed, the greater
the fuel economy.
NOTICE
Do not let the indicator needle get
into the red zone. This may cause
severe engine damage.
Odometer and two trip meters
This meter displays the odometer and
two trip meters.
1. Odometer—Shows the total distance the vehicle has been driven.
2. Two trip meters—Show two different distances independently driven since
the last time each trip meter was set
to zero.
You can use one trip meter to calculate
the fuel economy and the other to
measure the distance on each trip. All
trip meter data is cancelled if the elec-
trical power source is disconnected.

104
3. Trip meter reset knob—Resets the twotrip meters to zero, and also change
the meter display.
To reset the trip meter A to zero, dis-
play the meter A reading, then push
and hold the knob until the meter is
set to zero. The same process can be
applied for resetting the trip meter B.
To change the meter display, quickly
push and release the knob. The meter
display changes in the order from the
odometer to trip meter A to trip meter
B, then back to the odometer each
time you push.

Automatic transmission
Your automatic transmission has a shift
lock system to minimize the possibility of
incorrect operation. This means you can
only move out of “P” position when the
brake pedal is depressed (with the ignition
switch in “ON” position).
(a) Selector lever
The shift position is displayed on the in-
strument cluster.
P: Parking, engine starting and key re-
moval
R: Reverse
N: Neutral
D: Normal driving (with overdrive on)
3: Engine braking
2: Stronger engine braking
L: Maximum engine braking
Shift with the brake pedal
depressed.
(The ignition switch must be in
“ON” position.)
Shift normally.

The displayed temperature ranges from
–30C (–22 F) up to 50 C (122 F).
When you return the key to the “ACC”
position, the display returns to clock
mode.
If there is a problem with the connection
to the outside air temperature sensor,
“– –” will appear on the display. Contact
your Scion dealer.
