are also restored if the vehicle is 
used in the intervening period by 
someone with a different remote 
control.
Changes to settings are saved 
automatically in the currently used 
driver profile.
If a different driver profile is 
selected via Toyota Supra Com-
mand, the settings saved there are 
automatically applied. The new 
driver profile is allocated to the 
remote control currently used.
A guest profile is also available 
which is not allocated to any remote 
control. It can be used to perform 
settings on the vehicle without 
changing the personal driver pro-
files.
To ensure that the correct driver 
profile can be set, the system must 
be able to allocate the detected 
remote control uniquely to the 
driver.
This is ensured if the following con-
ditions are met:
• The driver is only carrying their 
own remote control.
• The driver unlocks the vehicle.
• The driver enters the vehicle 
through the driver's door.
The name of the currently used 
driver profile is displayed when the Control Display is switched on.
Select a driver profile, see page 88.
As soon as the engine is started or 
any button pressed, the display 
selected last is shown on the Con-
trol Display.
To cancel the welcome screen via 
Toyota Supra Command: "OK"

When the ambient conditions are 
dry, Launch Control permits opti-
mised acceleration on a road sur-
face that offers plenty of grip.
Use of Launch Control causes pre-
mature component wear, as the 
function subjects the vehicle to very 
high stresses and loads.
Do not use Launch Control when 
running in, see page 266.
When starting with Launch Control, 
do not turn the steering wheel.
Launch Control is available when 
the engine is at operating tempera-
ture. The engine is at operating 
temperature after an uninterrupted 
journey of at least 10 km, approx. 6 
miles.
