WARNING
A blocked exhaust pipe or inadequate
ventilation can allow harmful exhaust
fumes to enter the vehicle. The
exhaust fumes contain pollutants
which are colourless and odourless.
In enclosed spaces, the exhaust
fumes can also build up outside the
vehicle. There is a danger of fatal
injury. Keep the exhaust pipe clear
and ensure sufficient ventilation.
WARNING
An unsecured vehicle can start mov-
ing and rolling away. There is a dan-
ger of accidents. Before leaving the
vehicle, secure it to prevent it from
rolling away.
Observe the following to ensure that
the vehicle is secured against rolling
away:
• Apply the parking brake.
• Turn the front wheels towards the
kerb on upward or downward gradi-
ents.
• Additionally secure the vehicle on
upward or downward gradients, for
example with a chock.
NOTICE
Repeated start attempts or starting
several times in quick succession
means that fuel is not burned or is
inadequately burned. The catalytic
converter can overheat. There is a
danger of damage to property. Avoid
repeatedly starting in quick succes-
sion.

WARNING
The vehicle transmits radio waves
whenever the Smart Key System is
used to lock or unlock the doors, open
the boot lid, or when the engine
switch is operated. Therefore, this
system may affect the operation of
implantable cardiac pacemakers and
implantable cardioverter defibrillators.
Persons with implantable cardiac
pacemakers or implantable
cardioverter defibrillators should stay
22 cm or more away from the vehicle
when opening or closing a door. Also,
they should refrain from leaning on
the vehicle or looking through the win-
dows from outside when a door is
opened or closed.
Users of any electrical medical device
other than implantable cardiac pace-
makers, cardiac resynchronization
therapy-pacemakers or implantable
cardioverter defibrillators should con-
sult their doctor or the manufacturer
of the device for information about its
operation under the influence of radio
waves.

used in the intervening period by
someone with a different remote
control.
Changes to settings are saved
automatically in the currently used
driver profile.
If a different driver profile is
selected via Toyota Supra Com-
mand, the settings saved there are
automatically applied. The new
driver profile is allocated to the
remote control currently used.
A guest profile is also available
which is not allocated to any remote
control. It can be used to perform
settings on the vehicle without
changing the personal driver pro-
files.
To ensure that the correct driver
profile can be set, the system must
be able to allocate the detected
remote control uniquely to the
driver.
This is ensured if the following con-
ditions are met:
• The driver is only carrying their
own remote control.
• The driver unlocks the vehicle.
• The driver enters the vehicle
through the driver's door.
The name of the currently used
driver profile is displayed when the Control Display is switched on.

WARNING
The seat belts are designed to protect
persons of average adult height and
weight. A child which is 150 cm or
shorter should be sat in an appropri-
ately sized child restraint system,
such as a Toyota genuine child
restraint system. Do not allow a child
to be unrestrained in the vehicle while
it is moving, as doing so is extremely
dangerous.
WARNING

vehicle.
When parking the vehicle, turn the
engine switch off, exit the vehicle with

in the vehicle can be extremely dan-
gerous for the following reasons:
●When the vehicle is parked under
direct sunlight, the temperature
inside the vehicle can increase to
over 50°C, even in winter. In this sit-
uation, occupants may suffer from
dehydration or heatstroke.
●If a switch is operated accidentally,
it may lead to unexpected injuries.
●Do not allow a child to open and
close the doors. When closing a
door, be careful so that the child’s
hands and feet to not get caught in
the door.
●Do not allow a child to put their
head or limbs out of the door win-
dow and be sure that they are clear
of the window before operating the
power window switch.
