When driving

Dynamic radar cruise control can be set when
The shift position is in D.
Vehicle speed is above approximately 50 km/h (30 mph).
Set speed
Depending on vehicle conditions and the driving environment, it may not be
possible to maintain the set speed.
Accelerating after setting the vehicle speed
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 40 km/h (25 mph).
VSC is activated.
The sensor cannot operate correctly because it is covered in some way.
The windshield wipers are operating at high speed (when the wiper
switch is set to the “AUTO” mode or the high speed windshield wiper
operation position).
If vehicle-to-vehicle distance control driving is automatically canceled for any
other reason, there may be a malfunction in the system. Contact any autho-
rized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped pro-
fessional.

NOTICE
When using an automatic car wash
Set the wiper switch to off. If the wiper switch is “AUTO”, the wipers may
operate and the wiper blades may be damaged.
To prevent damage to the panoramic roof (if equipped)
Observe the following precautions. Otherwise, the surface of the panoramic
roof may be damaged, or the deterioration of the coating may be acceler-
ated.
Before washing the vehicle, remove any dust, sand or other foreign matter
using water.
Do not use harsh brushes, scrubbing brushes or sharp objects to wash the
roof. Use only soft cloths or sponges.
Use a mild soap when removing dirt, and avoid the use of oil-based prod-
ucts (such as glass coating or car wax), alcohol-based products (such as
glass cleaner), or abrasive cleansers.
After cleaning, wash away any remaining soap with water.
If there is iron oxide on the vehicle, wash it away with water while wiping
gently without scrubbing.
Do not attach suction cups or sticky objects, such as stickers.
Promptly remove the information label attached to the panoramic roof after
confirming the content.
If snow has accumulated on the roof, remove it while being careful to avoid
scratching the roof.
If there is frost or ice on the roof, avoid the use of scrapers or de-icer.
