The damper configurations are
assigned to the different drive
modes of the sport mode switch,
see page 149.
Performance Control increases the
agility of the vehicle.
Individual wheels are braked to
increase agility for a sporty driving
style. The resulting braking effect is
largely compensated for by a simul-
taneous engine control action.This chapter describes all standard,
country-specific and special equip-
ment available for the model series.
It may therefore describe equip-
ment and functions which are not
installed in your vehicle, for exam-
ple on account of the optional
equipment selected or the country
specification. This also applies to
safety-relevant functions and sys-
tems. Please comply with the rele-
vant laws and regulations when
using the corresponding functions
and systems.
The air quality in the vehicle is
improved by the following compo-
nents:
Emissions-tested interior.
Microfilter.
Air-conditioning system for regu-
lating temperature, air flow and
recirculated-air mode.

WARNING
When using the air conditioning sys-
tem, seat heaters, etc. for a long
period of time, make sure that no
body parts are kept near the air out-
lets or in direct contact with the seat,
as doing so may lead to minor burns
or chill burns. If you feel unusual while
using the air conditioning system or
seat heaters, stop use or change the
setting immediately.

The cooling function is switched on

When the automatic air condition-

develops and exits underneath the

When drive-ready state is switched

It does this by automatically regu-

The AUTO programme is automati-

If the air outside the vehicle has an
unpleasant odour or contains pol-
lutants, the supply to the interior of
the vehicle can be shut off. The air
inside the vehicle is then recircu-

Automatic recirculated air mode
If the pollution sensor detects pollutants
in the outside air, the air mode is auto-

mode to recirculated air mode.
When the right LED is illuminated:
Recirculated air mode
The air in the cabin is continuously
recirculated.
The recirculated-air mode automat-ically switches off after a given time
depending on the ambient condi-
tions, to avoid condensation.
Continuous recirculated-air mode
deteriorates the air quality in the
interior and condensation on the
windows increases.
If there is condensation, shut down
recirculated-air mode or remove the
condensation, see page 254.
The air flow for air conditioning can
be set manually.
To be able to adjust the air flow
manually, first switch off the AUTO

The independent ventilation allows
the temperature of the interior to be
adjusted before the journey starts.
Depending on the set temperature
and ambient temperature, the inte-

any available residual heat from the
engine.
The system can be switched on
and off directly or for a preselected
departure time.
The system can also be used via
the Toyota Supra Connect app.
The switch-on time is calculated
based on the outside temperature.
The system will switch on in good
