When Traction mode is activated,
TRACTION is displayed in the
instrument cluster.
In certain situations, VSC is acti-
vated automatically:
If Adaptive Cruise Control with
Stop&Go function ACC is acti-
vated.In the event of a braking inter-
vention by the Toyota Supra
Safety Systems.
In the event of a flat tyre.
The active differential steplessly
locks the rear axle depending on
the driving conditions. This pro-
vides optimal power transfer in all
driving conditions by helping pre-
vent wheel spin at either rear
wheel.
The driver is responsible for a driv-
ing style appropriate to the situa-
tion. Activate/deactivate Traction

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 system can be used to set a
speed limit so that speed restric-
tions are not exceeded.
The system enables speeds from a
value of 30 km/h/20 mph and above
to be set as a speed limit. Below
the set speed limit, the vehicle can
be driven without restriction.The current speed is adopted as
the speed limit.
When switching on at a standstill or
driving at low speed, 30 km/h/20
mph is set as the speed limit.
When activating the speed limit it is
possible that Vehicle Stability Con-
trol VSC will be switched on and
the drive mode switched to NOR-
MAL.

Depending on the vehicle specifica-
tions, the set speed limit will be dis-
played.
This system allows a desired speed
to be set using the buttons on the
steering wheel. The desired speed
is then maintained by the system.
To do this, the system automatically
accelerates and brakes the vehicle as necessary.
Depending on the vehicle settings,
the characteristics of the Cruise
Control may change. Warning when the speed limit
is exceeded
Visual warning
If the speed limit is exceeded:
the indicator lamp in the
instrument cluster flashes for
as long as you exceed the set
speed limit.

WARNING
The system does not relieve you of
your personal responsibility to assess
the traffic situation correctly. Due to
system limitations, it cannot respond
independently and appropriately in all
traffic conditions. 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
Using the system in the following situ-
ations may increase the risk of an
accident, for example:
●On stretches of road with many cor-
ners and bends.
●In heavy traffic.
●If the road is icy, if there is fog or
snow, if conditions are wet or on a
loose road surface.
There is a danger of accidents or
damage to property. Only use the sys-
tem if it is possible to drive at a con-
stant speed.

saved speed is not excessively
large. Otherwise, there may be
inadvertent braking or acceleration.
Cruise Control is resumed with the
saved values.
The saved speed value is deleted
and can no longer be called up in
the following instances:
When the system is switched off.
When drive-ready state is
switched off.
With the corresponding equipment,
the set speed limit is displayed digi-
tally for a short time.
Some information from the system
can also be shown in the Head-Up
Display.The desired speed is also main-
tained on a downhill stretch. The
vehicle may drive slower than the
desired speed on uphill gradients if
the engine power is not sufficient.
This system allows you to set a
desired speed and a desired dis-
tance from the vehicle in front,
using the buttons on the steering
wheel.
When the road ahead is clear, the
system maintains the desired
speed by braking or accelerating
the vehicle automatically, as
required.
If there is a vehicle driving in front,
the system adapts your own vehicle
speed in order to maintain the set
distance from the vehicle ahead.
The speed is adapted as far as the
given situation allows.

bumper and a camera on the

Depending on the vehicle settings,
the characteristics of the Cruise
Control may change.
The distance can be set in several
stages, and is dependent on the
individual speed for reasons of
safety.
If the vehicle ahead brakes to a
standstill and sets off again shortly
afterwards, the system can recog-
nise this within the given context.
Safety notes
WARNING
The system does not relieve you of
your personal responsibility to assess
the traffic situation correctly. Due to
system limitations, it cannot respond
independently and appropriately in all
traffic conditions. 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
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.
WARNING
The desired speed may be acciden-
tally set incorrectly or called up by
mistake. There is a danger of acci-
dents. Adjust the desired speed to the
traffic conditions. Observe the traffic
situation and intervene actively if the
situation warrants it.
WARNING
There is a danger of accidents if the
difference in speed relative to other
vehicles is excessively high. This may
occur, for example, in the following
situations:
●When quickly approaching a slowly
moving vehicle.
●If another vehicle suddenly veers
into the vehicle's own lane.
●When quickly approaching station-
ary vehicles.
There is a danger of injury or even
death. Observe the traffic situation
and intervene actively if the situation
warrants it.

Each time the rocker switch is
pressed to the resistance point,
the desired speed is increased or
decreased by 1 km/h, 1 mph.
Each time the rocker switch is
pressed beyond the resistance
point, the desired speed
changes to the next multiple of
10 km/h on the km/h display or
the next multiple of 5 mph on the
mph display in the speedometer.

to traffic and weather conditions, also
comply with the prescribed safe dis-
tance by braking if necessary.
