This chapter describes all standard, 
country-specific and special equip-
ment available for the model series. 
It may therefore describe equip-
ment which is not installed in your 
vehicle, for example on account of 
the optional equipment selected or 
the country specification. This also 
applies to safety-relevant functions 
and systems. Please comply with 
the relevant laws and regulations 
when using the corresponding func-
tions and systems.
The voice control system enables 
most of the functions shown in the 
Control Display to be operated by 
spoken commands. The system 
provides spoken announcements to 
assist you with input.
• Functions that can only be used 
when the vehicle is stationary 
can only be operated via the 
voice control system to a limited 
extent.
• The system has a special micro-
phone on the driver's side.
• ›...‹ indicates commands for the 
voice control system in the 
Owner's Manual.• Commands, numbers and let-
ters should be spoken fluently, 
with the usual emphasis and at a 
normal volume and speed.
• Always say the commands in the 
language of the voice control 
system.
• When selecting the radio sta-
tion, use the customary pronun-
ciation of the station name as it is 
displayed on the Control Display.
›[...] Station ...‹, for example, 
Classic Radio station.
In order for the voice commands to 
be detected, a language must be 
set using Toyota Supra Command 
that is supported by the voice con-
trol system.

Safety notes
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.
