This chapter describes all stan-
dard, country-specific and
optional features offered with
the series. It also describes fea-
tures and functions that are not
necessarily available in your
vehicle, e.g., due to the selected
options or country versions. This
also applies to safety-related
functions and systems. When
using these functions and sys-
tems, the applicable laws and
regulations must be observed.
The instrument cluster is a vari-
able display. When the sport
mode switch is used to change
the driving mode, the instrument
cluster displays change to
match the driving mode.
The display change in the instru-
ment cluster can be deactivated
via Toyota Supra Command.
Some of the displays in the
instrument cluster may differ

"ALL ON": all Toyota Supra
Safety systems are switched on.
Basic settings are activated for
the sub-functions, for instance
setting for warning time.
"Customized": the Toyota Supra
Safety systems are switched on
according to the individual set-
tings.
Some Toyota Supra Safety sys-
tems cannot be individually
switched off.
All Toyota Supra Safety systems
are switched off.
The system may prevent some
accidents. In the event of an
accident, the system may
reduce impact speed.
The system sounds a warning
before an imminentcollision and
activates brakes inde-
pendently,if needed.
Depending on the equipment
version, the system is controlled by the following sensors:
Camera in the area of the
interior mirror.
Radar sensor in the front
bumper.
The approach control warning is
available even if cruise control
has been deactivated.
With the vehicle approaching
another vehicle intentionally, the
approach control warning and
braking are delayed in order to
avoid false system reactions.
The system issues a two-phase
warning of a possible risk of col-
lision with vehicles at speeds
above approx. 3 mph/5 km/h.
The timing of warnings may vary
with the current driving situation.
Press the button repeat-
edly. The following set-
tings are switched

WARNING
The system cannot serve as a
substitute for the driver’s personal
judgment in assessing visibility
and traffic situation. There is a risk
of accident. Adjust driving style to
traffic conditions. Watch traffic
closely and actively intervene
where appropriate.

In this case, even if the ABS oper-
ates, it cannot operate sufficiently
to avoid a possible dangerous situ-
ation. The driver is solely responsi-
ble for understanding their
surroundings and driving at a safe
speed.
When you apply the brakes rap-
idly, the system automatically
produces the greatest possible
braking force boost. It reduces
the braking distance to a mini-
mum during emergency stop.
This system utilizes all of the
capabilities provided by the Anti-
lock Brake System ABS.
Do not reduce the pressure on
the brake pedal for the duration
of the emergency stop.
In combination with Dynamic
radar cruise control, this system
ensures that the brakes respond
even more rapidly when braking
in critical situations.This system supports driving off
on uphill grades.
1
Hold the vehicle in place with
the foot brake.
2 Release the foot brake and
drive off without delay.
After the foot brake is released,
the vehicle is held in place for
approx. 2 seconds.
Depending on the vehicle load-
ing, the vehicle may roll back
slightly.
Within the physical limits, the
system helps to keep the vehicle
on a steady course by reducing
engine speed and by braking
the individual wheels.
VSC detects the following unsta-
ble driving conditions, for
instance:
Fishtailing, which can lead to
oversteering.

WARNING
The system cannot serve as a
substitute for the driver’s personal
judgment in assessing the traffic
conditions. Based on the limits of
the system, it cannot inde-
pendently react to all traffic situa-
tions. There is a risk of accident.
Adjust driving style to traffic condi-
tions. Watch traffic closely and
actively intervene where appropri-
ate.
WARNING
The use of the system can lead to
an increased risk of accidents in
the following situations, for
instance:
●On winding roads.
●In heavy traffic.
●On slippery roads, in fog, snow,
or wet conditions, or on a loose
road surface.
There is a risk of accidents or risk
of damage to property. Only use
the system if driving at constant
speed is possible.
WARNING
The desired speed can be incor-
rectly adjusted or called up by
mistake. There is a risk of an acci-
dent. Adjust the desired speed to
the traffic conditions. Watch traf-
fic closely and actively intervene
where appropriate.
