Before driving
CAUTION
■Seat adjustment
●When sliding the seat rearward, make sure not to squash the legs of the
rear passengers.
● Do not recline the seat more than necessary when the vehicle is in motion
to reduce the risk of sliding under the lap belt.
If the seat is too reclined, the lap belt may slide past the hips and apply
restraint forces directly to the abdomen or your neck may contact the
shoulder belt, increasing the risk of death or serious injury in the event of
an accident.
● After adjusting the seat, make sure that the seat is locked in position.
● When returning the seatback upright, be careful not to be hit by the seat-
back which will rebound with considerable spring force.
● When operating the front seat from the rear seat, make sure that no pas-
senger is seated in the front seat.
■ After returning the seatback
Push and pull the seatback to confirm that it is securely locked.
■ When sitting down or getting up off the rear seat
When sitting down or getting up off the rear seat, make sure not to trip over
the seat rail grooves.
■ Caution while driving
●Never operate the seat position adjustment lever and the seatback angle
adjustment lever while driving.
● Do not place anything under the front seats.
The items may fly out and interrupt pedal operation in events such as sud-
den braking, and may cause an accident.

5-2. Steps to take in an emergency
●If non-genuine Scion wheels are used. (Even if you use Scion
wheels, the tire pressu
re warning system may not work properly with
some types of tires.)
●If tire chains are used.
●If emergency tire puncture repair kit is used.
■If the tire pressure warning light frequently comes on after blinking
for 1 minute
If the tire pressure warning light frequently comes on after blinking for 1
minute when the engine switch is turned to the ON position, have it
checked by your Scion dealer.
■ Customization that can be configured at Scion dealer
The vehicle speed linked seat belt reminder buzzer can be disabled.
(Customizable features P. 343)
CAUTION
■When the electric power steering system warning light comes on
The steering wheel may become extremely heavy.
If the steering wheel becomes heavier than usual when operating, hold
firmly and operate using more force than usual.
■If the tire pressure warning light comes on
Be sure to observe the following precautions. Failure to do so could
cause loss of vehicle control and result in death or serious injury.
●Stop your vehicle in a safe place as soon as possible. Adjust the tire
inflation pressure immediately.
●If the tire pressure warning light comes on even after tire inflation pres-
sure adjustment, it is pr obable that you have a flat tire. Check the tires.
If the tire is flat, temporary repair it with liquid sealants and have the
flat tire repaired or replaced by the nearest Scion dealer as soon as
possible.
●Avoid abrupt maneuvering and braking. If the vehicle tires deteriorate,
you could lose control of the steering wheel or the brakes.
■If a blowout or sudden air leakage should occur
