The calculation of average speed
ignores any stationary periods

Two types of on-board computer

• "On-board computer": average
values for example consumption
are displayed. The valuescan be
reset individually.
• "Trip computer": values provide
an overview of a particular route,

The illumination width of the
low-beam headlights is expanded.
In sharp turns up to a specified
speed, for example in hairpin bends
or when turning off, a cornering
light is added to illuminate the
inside area of the bend.
The cornering light is activated
automatically depending on the

The cornering light may be acti-

Automatic high-beam ensures that
the high-beam headlights are
switched on when the traffic situa-
tion allows. The high-beam head-
lights are not switched on by the
system in the low speed range.
The system responds to the lights
from oncoming traffic and traffic
driving ahead of you, and to ambi-
ent lighting, for example in built-up
areas.
The high-beam headlights can be
switched on and off manually at any
time.
If the vehicle is equipped with daz-
zle-free Automatic high-beam, the
high-beam headlights are not
switched off for oncoming vehicles
or vehicles driving ahead of you;
instead, the areas of the beam that
would otherwise dazzle the oncom-
ing traffic or traffic driving ahead
are masked off. In this case, the
blue indicator lamp continues to
illuminate.
If the headlights are converted, see
page 176, automatic high-beam
may only function to a limited
extent.

effectiveness as an occupant pro-
tection device.
SRS is an acronym for Supplemental
Restraint System
In the event of a collision, the seat
belts restrain the occupants in their
seats, but if the impact of the colli-
sion is especially severe, there is
danger of an occupant’s head and
chest contacting the steering
wheel, dashboard and windshield.
In this case, the SRS front airbags
and SRS knee airbags deploy
(inflate), instantly creating an air
cushion to help reduce the impact
on the occupants and restrain them
from contacting the steering wheel,
etc. with their head, chest and
knees.
The SRS front air bags and SRS
knee airbags deploy only when an
impact exceeding a certain thresh-
old is detected. In a collision, even
if the impact is severe enough to
cause the vehicle body to deform,
the SRS airbags may not deploy if
the impact of the collision is suffi-
ciently dispersed by the crash
structures of the vehicle body. If the
force of the collision does not cause
the airbags to deploy, the seatbelts
will protect the occupants.
When an airbag deploys, as it will
inflate nearly instantly, it may
impact an occupant and cause an
injury, or the loud noise emitted by
ignition or deployment may cause
temporary partial loss of hearing. Also, as an airbag and nearby parts
will be extremely hot after the
airbag deploys, touching them may
cause burns. For these reasons,
deployment of the airbags is not
entirely risk free. Therefore, in
order to reduce this risk, the
airbags are designed to only deploy
when additional reduction of the
impact applied to the occupants in
a collision is necessary.
WARNING
Wear the seatbelt correctly and sit
with the correct posture.
If you sit with your head too close to
the steering wheel, when the SRS
front airbag deploys, it may apply a
very large impact to your body. Sit in
the driver’s seat with the correct pos-
ture and keep an appropriate distance
away from the steering wheel.

WARNING
The system does not relieve you of
your personal responsibility to assess
the visibility conditions and traffic situ-
ation correctly. There is a danger of
accidents. Adapt your driving style to
the traffic conditions. Observe the
traffic situation and intervene actively
if the situation warrants it.
WARNING
Displays and warnings do not relieve
you of your personal responsibility.
System limitations can mean that
warnings or system responses are
not issued or are issued too late,
incorrectly or without justification.
There is a danger of accidents. Adapt
your driving style to the traffic condi-
tions. Observe the traffic situation and
intervene actively if the situation war-
rants it.
WARNING
Due to system limitations, individual
functions may not work properly when
tow-starting/towing with activated
Toyota Supra Safety Systems. There
is a danger of accidents. Switch off all
Toyota Supra Safety Systems before

Radar sensor in front bumper.
From speeds of approximately 5
km/h, 3 mph, the system provides a
two-stage warning of any possible
risk of collision with vehicles. The
timing of these warnings may vary
depending on the current driving
situation.
When deliberately moving closer to
