Rear view monitor system CAUTION
The image on the screen is different from actual conditions. Depicted distances between
objects and flat surfaces will differ from actual distance. If you back up looking only at
the screen monitor, you may hit an object, vehicle or person.
Use your own eyes to confirm the vehicle’s surroundings, as the displayed image may
become faint or dark, and moving images will be distorted or not entirely visible when
the outside temperature is low.
NOTICE
If the vehicle is hit, the position and mounting angle of the camera may change. Be sure
to have the camera position and mounting angle checked at your local Toyota dealer.
The camera is of water proof construction. Do not detach, disassemble or modify it. Any
of these activities may cause the system to malfunction.
If the temperature changes rapidly, such as pouring hot water on the vehicle in cold
temperatures, the system may not operate normally.
Do not hit the camera or expose it to strong impact as this may cause its position and
mounting angle to change.
Do not rub the camera lens strongly. If the lens is scratched it cannot transmit a clear
image.
Do not allow organic solvent, car wax, window cleaner or glass coat to adhere to the
camera. If contact is made with one of these substances wipe it off as soon as possible.
When replacing tires on the vehicle, please consult your Toyota dealer. If you replace
the tires, the area displayed on the screen may change.
Do not use a high-pressure car-wash machine type wand to spray the camera or camera
area as this may cause serious damage to the rear view camera. Using intensive bursts
of water may result in the camera malfunctioning.
The rear view monitor system assists the driver by displaying an image of the
camera’s view behind the vehicle when in reverse.
To see the camera’s image of the view behind the vehicle on the monitor screen,
the vehicle ignition switch must be in the ON position and the gear selector must
be in the REVERSE position.
If you shift the vehicle out of the “R” position, the screen returns to the
previous image.
The rear view monitor system is a device intended to supplement the driver
when motoring in reverse and should not be relied upon solely. Drivers should
check behind the vehicle before entering and are reminded to use the rear
view and side mirrors once seated to ensure the intended path is clear before
moving the vehicle.
INFORMATION
If the camera lens becomes dirty, it cannot transmit a clear image. If water
droplets, snow or mud adhere to the lens rinse with water and wipe with a soft
clean cloth. If the lens is extremely dirty, wash it with a mild cleaner and rinse
immediately.
AREA DISPLAYED ON SCREEN
The image displayed on the screen is an approximation only.
INFORMATION
The area displayed on the screen may vary
according to vehicle orientation or road
conditions.
The area detected by the camera is limited.
The camera does not detect objects which
are close to either corner of the bumper or
under the bumper.

The camera for the rear view monitor system is located near the license plate.
To adjust the image on the rear view monitor screen, press the setup button
“” on the left side of screen and select “Display” on the setup screen. Then
select “Camera” to adjust the screen brightness and contrast.
Refer to Scion.com to download the Owner‘s Manual for more details on this system.
The rear view monitor system camera is located as shown in the illustration.
REAR VIEW MONITOR SYSTEM CAMERA
*Smear effect
A phenomenon that occurs when a bright light (for example, sunlight reflected off
the vehicle body) is picked up by the camera; when transmitted by the camera,
the light source appears to have a vertical streak above and below it.
INFORMATION
If a bright light (for example, sunlight reflected off the vehicle body) is picked up
by the camera, a Smear effect* may occur.
INFORMATION
The camera uses a special lens. The distance of the image that appears on the
screen differs from the actual distance.
When the camera is used under fluorescent lights, sodium lights or mercury lights
etc., the lights and the illuminated areas may appear to flicker.
In the following cases, it may become difficult to see the images on the screen,
even when the system is functioning:
• In the dark (for example, at night)
• When the temperature near the lens is high or low
• When water droplets are adhering to the camera, or when humidity is
high (for example, when it rains)
• When foreign matter (for example, snow or mud) is adhering to the camera
• When the camera has scratches or dirt on it
• When the sun or the beam of headlights is shining directly into the camera

SAFETY AND EMERGENCY FEATURES
If belt is fully extended, then retracted even slightly, it cannot be re-extended
beyond that point, unless fully retracted again. This feature is used to help hold
child restraint systems securely.
To find more information about seat belts, and how to install a child restraint
system, refer to the Owner’s Manual.

Star Safety SystemTM
VSC helps prevent loss of traction during cornering by reducing engine power and
applying brake force to selected wheels.
Toyota’s VSC monitors steering angle and the direction your vehicle is traveling.
When it senses that the front or rear wheels begin to lose traction, VSC reduces
engine power and applies braking to selected wheels. This helps restore traction
and vehicle control.
Vehicle Stability Control (VSC)
Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS)
Brake Assist (BA)
ABS helps prevent brakes from locking up by “pulsing” brake pressure to each
wheel. This limits brake lockup and helps provide directional control for the
current road conditions.
Toyota’s ABS sensors detect which wheels are locking up and limits wheel lockup
by “pulsing” each wheel’s brakes independently. Pulsing releases brake pressure
repeatedly for fractions of a second. This helps the tires attain the traction that
current road conditions will allow, helping you to stay in directional control.
Brake Assist is designed to detect sudden or “panic” braking, and then add braking
pressure to help decrease the vehicle’s stopping distance. When there’s only a
split second to react, Brake Assist can add additional brake pressure more quickly
than just the driver alone can.
VSC helps prevent loss of traction during cornering by reducing engine power, and
Traction Control helps maintain traction on loose gravel and wet, icy, or uneven
surfaces by applying brake force to the spinning wheel(s).
Toyota’s TRAC sensors are activated when one of the drive wheels starts to slip.
TRAC limits engine output and applies the brakes to the spinning wheel. This
transfers power to the wheels that still have traction to help keep you on track.
Traction Control (TRAC)
Electronic Brake Force Distribution (EBD)
Toyota’s ABS technology has Electronic Brake-force Distribution (EBD) to help
maintain control and balance when braking. Abrupt stops can cause a vehicle
to tilt forward, reducing the braking power of the rear wheels. EBD responds to
sudden stops by redistributing brake force to enhance the braking effectiveness of
all four wheels.
SAFETY AND EMERGENCY FEATURES
Your new Scion vehicle comes standard with the Star Safety SystemTM, which
combines Traction Control (TRAC), Electronic Brake-force Distribution (EBD), Vehicle
Stability Control (VSC), Brake Assist (BA) and an Anti-lock Braking System (ABS).

Smart Stop Technology automatically reduces engine power when the accelerator
and brake pedals are pressed simultaneously under certain conditions.
SST engages when the accelerator is depressed first and the brakes are applied
firmly for longer than one-half second at speeds greater than five miles per hour.
SST doesn’t engage if the brake pedal is depressed before the accelerator pedal,
allowing vehicles to start on a steep hill and safely accelerate without rolling
backward.
