Scrapping of your Scion
The SRS airbag and seat belt pretensioner devices in
your Scion contain explosive chemicals. If the vehicle is
scrapped with the airbags and pretensioners left as they
are, this may cause an accident such as a fire. Be sure
to have the systems of the SRS airbag and seat belt
pretensioner removed and disposed of by a qualified
service shop or by your Scion dealer before you dis-
pose of your vehicle.
Leak detection pump
This pump performs fuel evaporation leakage check.
This check is done approximately five hours after the
engine is turned off. So you may hear a sound coming
from underneath the luggage compartment for several
minutes. It does not indicate a malfunction.
Perchlorate Material
Special handling may apply,
See www.dtsc.ca.gov/hazardouswaste/perchlorate.
Your vehicle has components that may contain perchlo-
rate. These components may include airbag, seat belt
pretensioners, and wireless remote control batteries.
