DRIVING HINTS
Ensure that you do not obstruct
other road users when doing so.
The heat generated by braking
dries the brake discs and brake
pads and protects them against
corrosion.
This way, brake power is available
immediately, whenever it is needed.
■General
When driving on long or steep
downhill stretches, use the gear in
which the least braking is required.
Otherwise the brake system can
overheat and the braking effect is
reduced.
Engine braking effect can be addi-
tionally increased by manually shift-
ing down, even into first gear, if
applicable.
■Safety notes
Corrosion of the brake discs and
contamination of the brake pads
increase in the following circum-
stances:
Low mileage.
Extended periods when the vehi-
cle is not used.
Infrequent use of the brakes.
Aggressive, acidic or alkaline
cleaning agents.
During braking, corroded brake
discs may cause brake judder
which usually cannot be eliminated.
When the automatic air condition-
ing is in operation, condensation
develops and exits underneath the
vehicle.
The higher mechanical and thermal
loads involved in driving on racing
tracks lead to increased wear. This
wear is not covered by the war-
ranty. The vehicle is not conceived
for use in motor sports competi-
tions.
Before and after driving on a racing
track, have the vehicle checked at
any authorized Toyota retailer or
Toyota authorized repairer, or any
reliable repairer.
Downhill gradients
WA R N I N G
Even slight continuous pressure on the brake pedal can cause overheat-
ing, brake pad wear or even brake
system failure. There is a danger of accidents. Avoid excessive loads on
the brake.
WA R N I N G
When idling or with the engine switched off, safety-relevant func-
tions, for example engine braking
effect or steering and braking force assistance, are either restricted or not
available at all. There is a risk of acci-
dent. Do not drive at idle speed or with the engine switched off.

Electronic oil measurement uses
two measuring methods:
• Monitoring.
• Detailed measurement.
When frequently making short trips
or using a sporty driving style, for
example taking corners at high
speed, regularly perform a detailed
measurement.
■Principle
The engine oil level is electronically
monitored during the journey and
can be shown on the Control Dis-
play.
If the engine oil level is outside its
permissible operating range, a
vehicle message is shown.
■Operating requirements
A current measurement is available
after approximately 30 minutes of
normal driving.
■Displaying the engine oil level
Via Toyota Supra Command:
1 "My Vehicle"
2 "Vehicle status"
3 "Engine oil level"
The engine oil level is displayed.
■System limits
When frequently making short trips
or using a sporty driving style, it
may not be possible to measure the
oil level. In this case, the measure-
ment for the last, sufficiently long
journey is displayed.
■Principle
The engine oil level is checked
when the vehicle is stationary and
is shown on a scale.
If the engine oil level is outside its
permissible operating range, a
vehicle message is shown.
■General
During measurement, the idle
speed is slightly raised.
■Operating requirements
• Vehicle is standing horizontally.
• Selector lever in selector lever
position N or P and accelerator
pedal not pressed.
• Engine is running and is at oper-
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.

The normal level of the coolant
level is achieved by prolonging the
operating time.
The coolant level is indicated by
means of the max. mark in the filler
neck of the coolant expansion tank.

2 Open the bonnet, see page 321.
3 Turn cap on coolant tank slightly
anticlockwise, then allow the

4 Open cap on coolant tank.
5 The coolant level is correct if it is
just below the Max. mark in the
filler neck.

■Disposal
When disposing of coolant and
coolant additives, comply with the
relevant environmental protection
regulations.
All washer jets are supplied from
one tank.
Use a mixture of tap water and

The manufacturer of the vehicle
recommends handing the vehicle in
at a take-back point nominated by
the manufacturer at the end of its

country. Additional information is
available from any authorized
Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized
repairer, or any reliable repairer.

If a malfunction occurs
while driving
WA R N I N G
If a malfunction occurs while driving,
immediately stop the vehicle in a safe
place.
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 any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reli-
able repairer.
WA R N I N G
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 any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized
repairer, or any reliable repairer.
