Locking operation
Unlocking operation
To lock and unlock all the side doors
and back door, push the switches slow-
ly and securely.
To lock: Push the lock switch. All the side
doors and back door are locked simulta-
neously. At this time, you will hear one
beep and the turn signal lights will flash
once.
Check to see that all the doors are se-
curely locked.
The beep and flashing turn signal lights
can be disabled. For details, contact your
Scion dealer.
If any of side doors or back door is not
securely closed or if the key is in the
ignition switch, locking cannot be per-
formed by the lock switch. At this time,

To unlock: Push the unlock switch once to
unlock the driver ’s door alone. Pushing
the switch twice within 3 seconds unlocks
all the side doors and back door simulta-
neously. Each time the unlock switch is
pushed, you will hear two beeps and the
turn signal lights will flash twice.
This double switch operation to unlock all
the side doors and back door can be
changed to a single switch operation. For
details, contact your Scion dealer.
When the unlock switch is pressed, the
interior lights come on. The light remain
on for about 15 seconds unless any of the
doors is opened and then closed. (For
further information, see “Interior light” on
page 90.)
You have 60 seconds to open a door after
using the wireless remote unlock feature.
If a door is not opened by then, all the
side doors and back door will be automati-
cally locked again.
The timing for the automatic door lock
function can be changed. For details, con-
tact your Scion dealer.
If the lock or unlock switch is kept
pressed in, the locking or unlocking opera-
tion is not repeated. Release the switch
and then push it again.
Pushing the panic switch for 1 second
blows the horn intermittently and
flashes the headlights, tail lights and
emergency flashers and turns on the
interior light.
The panic switch is used to deter vehicle
theft when you witness anyone attempting
to break into or damage your vehicle.
The panic mode will last for one minute.
To stop the panic mode midway, do the
follows:
Push any switch on the key.
Turn the ignition key from the “LOCK”
to “ON” position.The panic mode does not work when the
ignition key is in the “ON” position.
This panic mode can be disabled. For

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 spillage in
the event of an accident.
Use only a genuine fuel tank cap
for replacement. It is designed to
regulate fuel tank pressure.
NOTICE
To prevent damage to the cap, apply
force only in the turning direction to
the cap. Do not pull or pry it.
Sliding operation
Tilting operation
To operate the moon roof, use the
switch between the personal lights.
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 “SLIDE
OPEN” side.
The roof will open and stop partway 67
mm (2.6 in.) from the fully opened posi-
tion. When you push “SLIDE OPEN” side
again, the moon roof will open fully. To
stop the roof partway, push the switch on
either the “SLIDE OPEN” or “TILT UP”
side briefly.
As driving with the moon roof opened fully
will cause wind throbs, we recommend
you to drive with the moon roof partway
67 mm (2.6 in.) from the fully opened
position.
The sun shade will be opened together
with the roof.
To close: Push the switch on the “TILT
UP” side.
The roof will fully close. To stop the roof
partway, push the switch on either the
“SLIDE OPEN” or “TILT UP” side briefly.

The front passenger ’s seat belt pretension-
er will not activate if no passenger is
detected in the front passenger seat by
the front passenger occupant classification
system. However, the front passenger ’s
seat belt pretensioner may activate if lug-
gage is put on the seat, or the seat belt
is buckled up regardless of the presence
of an occupant in the seat. (As for the
front passenger occupant classification
system, see “—Front pass enger occupant
classification system” on page 58.)
The seat belt pretensioners and SRS air-
bags may not operate together in all colli-
sions.
The seat belt pretensioner system con-
sists mainly of the following components,
and their locations are shown in the il-
lustration.
1. Front airbag sensors
2. SRS warning light
3. “AIR BAG ON” and “AIR BAG OFF” indicator lights
4. Front passenger occupant classification system (ECU and sensors)
5. Seat belt pretensioner assemblies
6. Front passenger ’s seat belt buckle switch
7. Driver ’s seat belt buckle switch
8. Airbag sensor assembly The seat belt pretensioners are controlled
by the airbag sensor assembly. The airbag
sensor assembly consists of a safing sen-
sor and airbag sensor.
When the seat belt pretensioners are acti-
vated, an operating noise may be heard
and a small amount of non
−toxic gas may
be released. This does not indicate that
a fire is occurring. This gas is normally
harmless.
Once the seat belt pretensioners have
been activated, the seat belt retractors
remain locked.
If the vehicle is involved in multiple colli-
sions, the pretensioner will activate for the
first collision, but will not activate for the
second or subsequent collisions.

The SRS front airbag system consists
mainly of the following components, and
their locations are shown in the illustra-
tion.1. Front airbag sensors
2. SRS warning light
3. Airbag module for front passenger (airbag and inflator)
4. “AIR BAG ON” and “AIR BAG OFF” indicator lights
5. Front passenger occupant classification system (ECU and sensors)
6. Front passenger ’s seat position sensor
7. Front passenger ’s seat belt buckle switch 8. Driver ’s seat belt buckle switch
9. Driver ’s seat position sensor
10. Airbag sensor assembly 11. Airbag module for driver (airbag and inflator) The airbag sensor assembly consists of a
safing sensor and airbag sensor.
The front airbag sensors constantly moni-
tor the forward deceleration of the vehicle.
If an impact results in a forward decelera-
tion beyond the designed threshold level,
the system triggers the airbag inflators. At
this time a chemical reaction in the inflat-
ors very quickly fills the airbags with non
−
toxic gas to help restrain the forward mo-
tion of the occupants. The front airbags
then quickly deflate so that there is no
obstruction of the driver ’s vision should it
be necessary to continue driving.
When the airbags inflate, they produce a
loud noise and release some smoke and
residue along with non −toxic gas. This
does not indicate a fire. This smoke may
remain inside the vehicle for some time,
and may cause some minor irritation to
the eyes, skin or breathing. Be sure to
wash off any residue as soon as possible
to prevent any potential skin irritation with
soap and water. If you can safely exit
from the vehicle, you should do so imme-
diately.
