In such cases, depress the acceler-
ator pedal.
The following restrictions may apply
if the weather or lighting conditions
are unfavourable:
Impaired detection of vehicles.
Brief interruptions when vehicles
have already been detected.
Examples of unfavourable weather
or lighting conditions:
Wet roads.
Snowfall.
Slush.
Fog.
Oncoming light.
Pay attention when driving and
respond to the prevailing traffic con-
ditions. If necessary, intervene
actively, for example by braking,
steering or manoeuvring.
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.The system cannot be activated if
the radar sensor is not correctly
aligned, for example following park-
ing damage.
A vehicle message is displayed if
the system has failed.
Have the system checked by any
authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota
authorized repairer, or any reliable
repairer.
The system may have limited func-
tionality if the radar sensor detec-
tion range is partially covered, for
example by the number plate
holder.
The function for detecting and
responding to stationary vehicles
when approaching may be limited
in the following situation:
During the camera calibration
process immediately after vehi-

Supra Owner's Manual4-1. DRIVING HINTS
DRIVING HINTS
Add-on parts on the vehicle inter-
fere with its aerodynamic perfor-
mance and increase fuel
consumption.
Open windows increase drag and
consequently fuel consumption.
Tyres can have differing effects on
consumption. For example, con-
sumption can be affected by tyre
size.
Check and, if necessary, correct the
tyre inflation pressures at least
twice a month and before setting off
on a longer journey.
Insufficient tyre inflation pressure
increases rolling resistance and
consequently fuel consumption and
tyre wear.
Do not warm up the engine with the
vehicle at a standstill; it is prefera-
ble to set off straight away, driving
at moderate engine speeds.This brings the cold engine up to
operating temperature as quickly as
possible.
Anticipating the road situation and
adopting a smooth driving style will
reduce fuel consumption.
Avoid accelerating and braking
unnecessarily.
Keep an appropriate distance from
the vehicle ahead.
Driving at low engine speeds
reduces fuel consumption and
wear.
Pay attention to the shift point indi-
cator, see page 160, in the vehicle,
if fitted.
When approaching a red traffic
light, take your foot off the accelera-
tor and allow the vehicle to roll.
On downward stretches, take your
foot off the accelerator and allow
the vehicle to roll.

Safety notes
WARNING
Service products, for example oils,
greases, coolants and fuels, can con-
tain substances that are harmful to
health. There is a danger of injury or
even death. Please comply with the
instructions on the containers. Do not
allow service products to come into
contact with clothing, skin or eyes. Do
not pour service products into other
bottles. Keep service products out of
the reach of children.
NOTICE
Too little engine oil causes engine
damage. There is a danger of dam-
age to property. Top up with engine oil
immediately.
NOTICE
Too much engine oil can damage the
engine or the catalytic converter.
There is a danger of damage to prop-
erty. Do not top up with too much
engine oil. If there is too much engine
oil, have the engine oil level corrected
by any authorized Toyota retailer or
Toyota authorized repairer, or any reli-
able repairer.

WARNING
If a warning light illuminates or
flashes, or a warning message is dis-
played, immediately stop the vehicle
in a safe place. Do not open the hood
to inspect the engine, as doing so
may lead to serious injury, such as
steam burns. If a warning message is
displayed, perform the necessary pro-
cedures according to the displayed
message or explanation in the
owner’s manual.
These warning messages indicate
that a malfunction has occurred in a
system or function of the vehicle. If
you continue to drive the vehicle, the
engine may stop suddenly, possibly
leading to an accident. Also, even if
no warning lights are illuminated or
messages are displayed, if any
abnormal sounds, smells or vibrations
are detected, or of the engine stops
suddenly, refrain from opening the
hood to inspect the engine and con-
sult an authorized Toyota retailer or
Toyota authorized repairer, or any reli-
able repairer.
WARNING
If you hear a loud noise or feel some-
thing impact the underside of the
vehicle while driving, immediately
stop the vehicle in a safe place.
After stopping the vehicle in a safe
place, check the underside of the
vehicle for any leaking brake fluid, oil
or fuel. If any fluid is leaking, stop
driving immediately and have the
vehicle inspected by an authorized
Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized
repairer, or any reliable repairer.
Brake and fuel lines run under the
floor of the vehicle. If any of these
lines are damaged, the brakes may
fail or leaking fuel may ignite and
cause a fire.
WARNING
If the engine stalls while driving, sev-
eral warning lights will illuminate.
Depending on vehicle specifications,
the power-assisted brakes and power
steering may stop operating. In this
case the braking power will be
reduced and operation of the steering
wheel will become heavy. Although
the operation of the brakes and steer-
ing will not be totally lost, they will
require stronger than normal input to
operate. Stop the vehicle in a safe
place as soon as possible.
