■Dynamic radar cruise control can be set when
● The shift position is in “D”.
● Vehicle speed is above approximately 30 mph (50 km/h).
■ Switching modes
The mode cannot be switched to constant speed control mode if vehicle-to-
vehicle distance control mode has been used. The mode also cannot be
switched from constant speed control to vehicle-to-vehicle distance control
mode. Turn the system off by pressing the “ON-OFF” button, and turn it on
again.
■ Accelerating
The vehicle can accelerate normally. After acceleration, the set speed
resumes. However, during vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode, the
vehicle speed may decrease below the set speed in order to maintain the
distance to the vehicle ahead.
■ Automatic cancelation of vehicle-to-vehicle distance control
Vehicle-to-vehicle distance control driving is automatically canceled in the
following situations:
● Actual vehicle speed falls below approximately 25 mph (40 km/h).
● Enhanced VSC is activated.
● The sensor cannot operate correctly because it is covered in some way.
● The windshield wipers are operating at high speed.
If vehicle-to-vehicle distance control driving is automatically canceled for any
other reason, there may be a malfunction in the system. Contact your Toyota
dealer.

CAUTION
■Precautions for the Remote Air Conditioning System
Do not use the system if people are in the vehicle.
● Even when the system is in use, the internal temperature may still reach a
high level due to features such as the automatic shut-off. Children and
pets left inside the vehicle may suffer heatstroke or dehydration, or could
result in death or serious injury.
● The wipers can be operated during system operation. Children or pets left
inside the vehicle may mistakenly operate these and cause an accident.
● Turn the wipers off. If the Remote Air Conditioning System operates while
the wiper switch is in the on position, the wipers may operate and objects
may get caught in the wiper blades.
● Do not operate the if the hood is open. The air conditioning may
operate unintentionally and objects may be drawn into the electrical cool-
ing fan.
● Depending on the surrounding environment , signals from the wireless
switch may transmit further than expected. Pay appropriate attention to
the vehicle’s surroundings and use the switch only when necessary.
