(d) Charging System Warning Light
This warning light comes on when the
ignition switch is turned to the "ON" posi-
tion, and goes off when the engine is
started.
When there are problems in the charging
system while the engine is running, the
warning light comes on.
NOTICE
When the charging system warning
light comes on while the engine is
running, malfunctions such as the en-
gine drive belt being broken may have
occurred. If the warning light comes
on, immediately stop the vehicle in a
safe place and contact your Scion
dealer.
(e) Engine Oil Replacement Reminder
Light
This light acts as a reminder to replace
the engine oil.
This light will come on when the ignition
key is turned to the "ON" position, and
will go off after a few seconds.
96
When you drive for about 7200 km (4500
miles) after the engine oil replacement,
this light illuminates for about 3 seconds
and then flashes for about 12 seconds
after the ignition key is turned to the "ON"
position. If you continue driving without
replacing the engine oil, and if the dis-
tance driven exceeds 8000
km (5000
miles), the light will come on after the
ignition key is turned to the "ON" position.
The light will remain on thereafter.
If the light is flashing, we recommend that
you replace the engine oil at an early
opportunity depending on the driving and
road conditions. If the light comes on,
replace it as soon as possible.
The system must be reset after the en-
gine oil replacement. Reset the system by
the following procedure:
1. Turn the ignition key to the "OFF" posi-
tion with the odometer reading shown.
(For details, see "Odometer and two
trip meters" on page 91.)
2. Turn the ignition key to the "ON" posi-
tion while holding down the trip meter
reset knob.
Hold down the knob for at least 5 sec-
onds. The odometer indicates "000000"
and the light goes off.
If the system fails to reset, the light will
remain on or keep flashing.
(f) Malfunction Indicator Lamp
This lamp comes on when the ignition
key is turned to the "ON" position and
goes off after the engine starts. This
means that the warning light system is
operating properly.
If the lamp remains on or the lamp
comes on while driving, first check the
following.
D
Empty fuel tank
If the fuel tank is empty, refuel immedi-
ately.
D
Loose fuel tank cap
If the fuel tank cap is loose, securely
tighten it.
These cases are temporary malfunctions.
The malfunction indicator lamp will go off
after taking several driving trips.
If the lamp will not go off even after
the several trips, contact your Scion
dealer as soon as possible.
