N
ow that you’ve got your Scion on the road, you want to make sure it keeps going.
That’s where scheduled maintenance comes in. Taking your car in for regular
service will help your ride run better and last longer. It will keep your repair bills
down too.
This booklet makes it easy to keep your Scion running smoothly. It lists all the
factory-recommended services and tells you when your vehicle needs them. Be sure to
look this booklet over carefully and keep it in your glove box. Do what it says and your
Scion should be happy for many miles to come.
Complimentary 5,000 Mile & 10,000 Mile Factory-Recommended
Maintenance Services
To help you get started with regular maintenance, Scion provides your vehicle’s 5,000
mile and 10,000 mile factory-recommended maintenance services on a complimentary
basis. To find out how to obtain your complimentary maintenance services, see the
section titled Complimentary Maintenance Services.
Please make sure that all the other services recommended in this booklet are
performed on your car as well.
Put it In Writing
To help you keep track of your Scion’s service history, each maintenance chart in this
booklet includes:
> Boxes to check for each service item performed
> Space for the maintenance provider to include a service verification stamp
> Space to write the date and mileage that service is performed
Documenting your service history may make your car worth more when you’re ready to
sell. There’s a reason smart people write things down.
In addition to scheduled maintenance, your vehicle requires general maintenance
such as fluid checks and visual inspections. These procedures are explained in the
“Vehicle Maintenance and Care” section of theOwner’s Manual. To help keep your
Scion out of trouble, be sure to perform these procedures regularly.
Scion is a marque of Toyota Motor Sales, U.S.A., Inc.

Maintenance Records
To make sure your warranty coverage stays intact, you need to maintain your Scion
according to the recommendations in this booklet. You should keep records of vehicle
maintenance, including date and mileage at time of service and a description of
service items performed and parts installed. The scheduled maintenance log can help
you keep track of this information. If you sell your car, be sure to give your
maintenance records to the new owner.
Scion will not deny a warranty claim solely because you don’t have records to show
that you maintained your vehicle. However, damage or failures caused by lack of
proper maintenance are not covered under warranty.
Maintenance Providers
You can have maintenance and repair services done by any automotive service provider
you choose, or you can do them yourself. Scion won’t deny a warranty claim solely
because you used a service provider other than a Scion dealership for maintenance
and repairs. However, damage or failures caused by improper maintenance or repairs
are not covered under warranty. Note:
Only Scion dealerships and Toyota dealerships are authorized to provide
warranty service/repairs for your Scion.
Dealer-Recommended Maintenance
Your dealer may recommend more frequent maintenance intervals or more
maintenance services than those listed in the scheduled maintenance log. You don’t
need to have these additional services performed to maintain your warranty coverage.
Ask your dealer to explain any recommended maintenance that is not included in the
scheduled maintenance log.
For a complete description of Scion warranty coverages, check out the booklet
called2008 Owner’s Warranty Information. You’ll find it in your glove box.
