THE NEW WORLD OF
ANTI-THEFT
TECHNOLOGY
This Scion vehicle may be equipped
with an electronic “immobilizer”
anti-theft system. When the key is
inserted into the ignition switch it
transmits an electronic code to an
immobilizer computer. The engine will
only start if the code in the key matches
the code in the immobilizer. If the code
does not match, the immobilizer
disables the ignition and fuel systems.
While an exact physical copy of the key
will open the door and allow retrieval of
items locked in the vehicle, it won’t
start the vehicle unless the key has the
same code as the immobilizer.
SECURITY
For security purposes, access to key
codes and service procedures for
electronically registering replacement
keys is restricted. Only an Authorized
Servicing Dealership* or certain
bonded/registered independent
locksmiths can generate replacement
keys.
* For the purposes of this system, an Authorized Servicing Dealership is a Scion dealership or a Toyota dealership.

REPLACING THE KEY
Upon purchase, each vehicle should
have two master keys, one valet key
and an aluminum tag with a key-code
imprinted on it.
To generate a fully functional
replacement key (one that will both
open the doors and start the engine),
one of the master keys is required. To
make a key that will open the door for
retrieval of items locked inside the
vehicle, the valet key or aluminum
key-code tag can be used. If a master
key or the aluminum key-code tag is
not available, an Authorized Servicing
Dealership or certain registered
locksmiths can obtain the key code
from a restricted-access database.
These businesses can also access a
service utility to reprogram the
immobilizer if all registered master
keys have been lost. If an Authorized
Servicing Dealership is not available,
please refer to www.aloa.orgto find a
bonded/registered locksmith who
performs high security key service.
KEEPING THE KEY SAFE
Replacing an immobilizer key may be
costly. It is advisable to keep a spare
master key and the aluminum key-code
tag in a safe place. If you record the
key-code in more than one place, do
not record it in a way that can be easily
identified and associated with the
vehicle. For example, don’t leave the
code somewhere that can be accessed
by a valet. It is wise to keep a copy of
the key-code outside of the vehicle.
If the vehicle was delivered with less
than all three keys and the aluminum
key-code tag, consider having an
Authorized Servicing Dealership or a
qualified independent automotive
locksmith make a duplicate key before
you need it.

Engine Air Filter
Replace at specified intervals. When
performing inspections, check for
damage, excessive wear and oiliness,
and replace if necessary.
Engine Coolant
Drain the cooling system and refill with
an ethylene-glycol type coolant. Inspect
the radiator, condenser and/or
intercooler for leaves, dirt and insects,
and clean if necessary. Inspect hoses
and connections for corrosion and
leaks. Tighten connections and replace
parts when necessary. A qualified
technician should perform these
operations. (For further details, refer to
 Radiator, Condenser and Hoses in the
 Vehicle Maintenance and Care section
of the
Owner’s Manual).
Your Scion is equipped with Genuine
Toyota Super Long-Life Coolant.
The replacement intervals for
engine coolant recommended in
this booklet are based on
replacement with Genuine Toyota
Super Long-Life Coolant or similar
high-quality non-silicate,
non-amine, non-borate
ethylene-glycol coolant with
long-life hybrid organic acid
technology (i.e., a combination of
low phosphates and organic acids).
If another type of ethylene-glycol
coolant is used, replacement
intervals may be different.
