Driving
This mode employs a radar to detect the presence of vehicles up to approx-
imately 100 m (328 ft.) ahead, d etermines the current vehicle-to-vehicle fol-
lowing distance, and operates to maintain a suitable following distance from
the vehicle ahead. The desired vehicle-to-vehicle distance can also be set
by operating the vehicle-to-vehicle distance switch.
When driving on downhill slopes, the vehicle-to-vehicle distanc e may become
shorter.
Example of constant speed cruising
When there are no vehicles ahead
The vehicle travels at the speed set by the driver.
Example of deceleration cruising and follow-up cruising
When a preceding vehicle driving slower than the set speed appe ars
When a vehicle is detected running ahead of you, the system automatically deceler-
ates your vehicle. When a greater reduction in vehicle speed is necessary, the sys-
tem applies the brakes (the stop lights will come on at this ti me). The system will
respond to changes in the speed of the vehicle ahead in order t o maintain the vehi-
cle-to-vehicle distance set by the driver. Approach warning war ns you when the sys-
tem cannot decelerate sufficiently to prevent your vehicle from closing in on the
vehicle ahead.
When the vehicle ahead of you stops, your vehicle will also sto p (vehicle is stopped
by system control). After the vehicle ahead starts off, pressin g the “+RES” switch or
depressing the accelerator pedal (start-off operation) will res ume follow-up cruising.
If the start-off operation is not performed, system control con tinues to keep your
vehicle stopped.

4-5. Using the driving support systems
When the turn signal lever is operated and your vehicle moves t o an overtaking lane
while driving at 80 km/h (50 mph) or more, the vehicle will acc elerate to help to over-
take a passing vehicle.
The system’s identification of what is an overtaking lane may b e determined solely
based on the location of the steering wheel in the vehicle (lef t side driver position
versus right side driver position.) If the vehicle is driven to a region where the over-
taking lane is on a different side from where the vehicle is no rmally driven, the vehi-
cle may accelerate when the turn signal lever is operated in th e opposite direction to
the overtaking lane (e.g., if the driver normally operates the vehicle in a region
where the overtaking lane is to the right but then drives to a region where the over-
taking lane is to the left, the vehicle may accelerate when the right turn signal is acti-
vated).
Example of acceleration
When there are no longer any preceding vehicles driving slower than the
set speed
The system accelerates until the set speed is reached. The syst em then returns to
constant speed cruising.
1 Press the cruise control main
switch to activate the cruise con-
trol.
Dynamic radar cruise control indicator will come on and a message will be dis-played on the multi-information display.
Press the switch again to deactivate the cruise control.
If the cruise control main switch is
pressed and held for 1.5 seconds or more, the system turns on in constant
speed control mode. ( P.259)

1Pressing the cancel switch can-
cels the speed control.
The speed control is also canceled
when the brake pedal is depressed.
(When the vehicle has been stopped by
system control, depressing the brake
pedal does not cancel the setting.)
2 Pressing the “+RES” switch
resumes the cruise control and
returns vehicle speed to the set
speed.
When your vehicle is too close to a
vehicle ahead, and sufficient auto-
matic deceleration via the cruise
control is not possible, the display
will flash and the buzzer will sound
to alert the driver. An example of
this would be if another driver cuts
in front of you while you are follow-
ing a vehicle. Depress the brake
pedal to ensure an appropriate
vehicle-to-vehicle distance.
■Warnings may not occur when
In the following instances, warnings
may not occur even when the vehi-
cle-to-vehicle distance is small.
 When the speed of the preceding
vehicle matches or exceeds your
vehicle speed
 When the preceding vehicle is
traveling at an extremely slow
speed
 Immediately after the cruise con-
trol speed was set
 When depressing the accelerator
pedal
When constant speed control mode
is selected, your vehicle will main-
tain a set speed without controlling
the vehicle-to-vehicle distance.
Select this mode only when vehi-
cle-to-vehicle distance control
mode does not function correctly
due to a dirty radar, etc.

Dynamic Radar Cruise Control with
Road Sign Assist can be
enabled/disabled in on the
multi-information display. ( P.498)
When the Dynamic Radar Cruise
Control with Road Sign Assist is
operating, while driving down a hill,
the vehicle speed may exceed the
set speed.
In this case, the displayed set vehi-
cle speed will be highlighted and a
buzzer will sound to alert the driver.
■Dynamic radar cruise control with full-speed range can be set when
●The shift lever is in D.
●The desired set speed can be set when the vehicle speed is approxi-mately 30 km/h (20 mph) or more.
(However, when the vehicle speed is set while driving at below approxi-mately 30 km/h [20 mph], the set
speed will be set to approximately 30 km/h [20 mph].)
■Accelerating after setting the vehi-cle speed
The vehicle can accelerate by operating the accelerator pedal. After accelerat-ing, the set speed resumes. However,
during vehicle-to-vehicle distance con- trol mode, the vehicle speed may decrease below the set speed in order
to maintain the distance to the preceding vehicle.
■When the vehicle stops while fol-
low-up cruising
●Pressing the “+RES” switch while the
vehicle ahead stops will resume fol- low-up cruising if the vehicle ahead starts off within approximately 3 sec-
onds after the switch is pressed.
●If the vehicle ahead starts off within 3
seconds after your vehicle stops, fol- low-up cruising will be resumed.
■Automatic cancelation of vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode
Vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode is automatically canceled in the follow-ing situations.
●VSC is activated.
●TRC is activated for a period of time.
●When the VSC or TRC system is
turned off.
●When snow mode is set.
●The sensor cannot detect correctly because it is covered in some way.
●When the brake control or output restriction control of a driving support
system operates. (For example: Pre-Collision System, Drive-Start Control)
●The parking brake is operated.
●The vehicle is stopped by system con-trol on a steep incline.
●The following are detected when the vehicle has been stopped by system control:
• The driver is not wearing a seat belt. • The driver’s door is opened.• The vehicle has been stopped for
about 3 minutes
If vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode is automatically canceled for any
reasons other than the above, there may be a malfunction in the system. Contact any authorized Toyota retailer
or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reli- able repairer.

■Automatic cancelation of constant
speed control mode
Constant speed control mode is auto- matically canceled in the following situa-
tions:
●Actual vehicle speed is more than
approximately 16 km/h (10 mph) below the set vehicle speed.
●Actual vehicle speed falls below approximately 30 km/h (20 mph).
●VSC is activated.
●TRC is activated for a period of time.
●When the VSC or TRC system is turned off.
●When the brake control or output restriction control of a driving support
system operates. (For example: Pre-Collision System, Drive-Start Control)
●The parking brake is operated.
If constant speed control mode is auto-
matically canceled for any reasons other than the above, there may be a malfunc-tion in the system. Contact any autho-
rized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer.
■The Dynamic Radar Cruise Control
with Road Sign Assist may not operate properly when (if equipped)
As the Dynamic Radar Cruise Control with Road Sign Assist may not operate properly in conditions in which RSA may
not operate or detect correctly ( P.269), when using this function, make sure to check the speed limit sign
displayed.
In the following situations, the set speed may not be changed to the recognized
speed limit by pressing and holding the “+RES”/“-SET” switch.
●If speed limit information is not avail-able
●When the recognized speed limit is the same as the set speed
●When the recognized speed limit is
outside of the speed range that the
dynamic radar cruise control system can operate
■Brake operation
A brake operation sound may be heard
and the brake pedal response may change, but these are not malfunctions.
■Warning messages and buzzers for dynamic radar cruise control with
full-speed range
Warning messages and buzzers are used to indicate a system malfunction or
to inform the driver of the need for cau- tion while driving. If a warning message is shown on the multi-information dis-
play, read the message and follow the instructions. ( P.229, 449)
■When the sensor may not be cor- rectly detecting the vehicle ahead
In the case of the following and depend- ing on the conditions, operate the brake pedal when deceleration of the system
is insufficient or operate the accelerator pedal when acceleration is required.
As the sensor may not be able to cor-
rectly detect these types of vehicles, the approach warning ( P.259) may not be activated.
●Vehicles that cut in suddenly
●Vehicles traveling at low speeds
●Vehicles that are not moving in the
same lane
●Vehicles with small rear ends (trailers
with no load on board, etc.)
●Motorcycles traveling in the same lane
●When water or snow thrown up by the surrounding vehicles hinders the
detecting of the sensor
