■Dynamic radar cruise control wi th 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 approximately
20 mph (30 km/h) or more.
(However, when the vehicle speed is set while driving at below approxi-
mately 20 mph [30 km/h], the set speed will be set to approxima tely 20 mph
[30 km/h].)
■ Accelerating after setting the vehicle speed
The vehicle can accelerate by operating the accelerator pedal. After acceler-
ating, the set speed resumes. However, during vehicle-to-vehicl e distance
control mode, the vehicle speed may decrease below the set spee d in order
to maintain the distance to the preceding vehicle.
■ When the vehicle stops while follow-up cruising
●Pressing the “+ RES” switch while the vehicle ahead stops will resume fol-
low-up cruising if the vehicle ahead starts off within approxim ately 3 sec-
onds after the switch is pressed.
● If the vehicle ahead starts off within 3 seconds after your veh icle 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 cance led in the fol-
lowing situations:
● VSC is activated.
● TRAC is activated for a period of time.
● When the VSC or TRAC system is turned off.
● The sensor cannot detect correctly because it is covered in some way.
● When the brake control or output restriction control of a driving support sys-
tem operates. (For example: Pre-Collision System, Drive-Start C ontrol)
● The parking brake is operated.
● The vehicle is stopped by system control 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 ca nceled for any
reasons other than the above, there may be a malfunction in the system.
Contact your Toyota dealer.

Automatic cancelation of c onstant speed control mode
Constant speed control mode is automatically canceled in the following situa-
tions:
● Actual vehicle speed is more than approximately 10 mph (16 km/h ) below
the set vehicle speed.
● Actual vehicle speed falls below approximately 20 mph (30 km/h) .
● VSC is activated.
● TRAC is activated for a period of time.
● When the VSC or TRAC system is turned off.
● When the brake control or output restriction control of a driving support sys-
tem operates. (For example: Pre-Collision System, Drive-Start C ontrol)
● The parking brake is operated.
If constant speed control mode is automatically canceled for any reasons
other than the above, there may be a malfunction in the system. Contact your
Toyota dealer.
■ Situations in which the curve speed reduction function may not operate
In situations such as the following, the curve speed reduction function may
not operate:
● When the vehicle is being driven around a gentle curve
● When the accelerator pedal is being depressed
● When the vehicle is being driven around an extremely short curv e
■ 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 d ynamic 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 caution while driving. If a warning message
is shown on the multi-information display, read the message and follow the
instructions. ( P. 252, 538)

3064-5. Using the driving support systems
CAMRY_U
In vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode, the vehicle automa tically
accelerates and decelerates to match the speed changes of the p re-
ceding vehicle even if the accelerator pedal is not depressed. In con-
stant speed control mode, t he vehicle runs at a fixed speed.
Use the dynamic radar cruise c ontrol on freeways and highways.

WARNING
■Before using dynamic r adar cruise control
● Driving safely is the sole responsibility of the driver. Do not rely solely on
the system, and drive safely by always paying careful attention to your sur-
roundings.
● The dynamic radar cruise control provides driving assistance to reduce the
driver's burden. However, there are limitations to the assistance provided.
Read the following conditions carefully. Do not overly rely on this system
and always drive carefully.
• When the sensor may not be correctly detecting the vehicle ahead: P. 320
• Conditions under which the vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode may not function correctly: P. 321
● Set the speed appropriately depending on the speed limit, traffic flow, road
conditions, weather conditions, etc. The driver is responsible for checking
the set speed.
● Even when the system is functioning normally, the condition of the preced-
ing vehicle as detected by the system may differ from the condition
observed by the driver. Therefore, the driver must always remain alert,
assess the danger of each situation and drive safely. Relying s olely on this
system or assuming the system ensures safety while driving can lead to
an accident, resulting in death or serious injury.
● Switch the dynamic radar cruise control setting to off, using the cruise con-
trol main switch when not in use.

WARNING
■Cautions regarding the driving assist systems
Observe the following precautions, as there are limitations to the assistance
provided by the system.
Failure to do so may cause an accident resulting in death or se rious injury.
● Assisting the driver to measure following distance
The dynamic radar cruise control is only intended to help the d river in
determining the following distance between the driver’s own vehicle and a
designated vehicle traveling ahead. It is not a mechanism that allows care-
less or inattentive driving, and it is not a system that can as sist the driver in
low-visibility conditions.
It is still necessary for driver to pay close attention to the vehicle’s sur-
roundings.
● Assisting the driver to judge proper following distance
The dynamic radar cruise control determines whether the followi ng dis-
tance between the driver’s own vehicle and a designated vehicle traveling
ahead is within a set range. It is not capable of making any other type of
judgement. Therefore, it is absolutely necessary for the driver to remain
vigilant and to determine whether or not there is a possibility of danger in
any given situation.
● Assisting the driver to operate the vehicle
The dynamic radar cruise control does not include functions whi ch will pre-
vent or avoid collisions with vehicles ahead of your vehicle. T herefore, if
there is ever any possibility of danger, the driver must take i mmediate and
direct control of the vehicle and act appropriately in order to ensure the
safety of all involved.

WARNING
■Situations unsuitable for dynamic radar cruise control
Do not use dynamic radar cruise control in any of the following situations.
Doing so may result in inappropriate speed control and could ca use an acci-
dent resulting in death or serious injury.
● Roads where there are pedestrians, cyclists, etc.
● In heavy traffic
● On roads with sharp bends
● On winding roads
● On slippery roads, such as those covered with rain, ice or snow
● On steep downhills, or where there are sudden changes between s harp up
and down gradients
Vehicle speed may exceed the set speed when driving down a stee p hill.
● At entrances to freeways and highways
● When weather conditions are bad enough that they may prevent the sen-
sors from detecting correctly (fog, snow, sandstorm, heavy rain, etc.)
● When there is rain, snow, etc. on the front surface of the rada r or front
camera
● In traffic conditions that require frequent repeated acceleration and decel-
eration
● During emergency towing
● When an approach warning buzzer is heard often

Pressing the cancel switch can-
cels the speed control.
The speed control is also canceled
when the brake pedal is
depressed.
Pressing the “+ RES” switch
resumes the cruise control and
returns vehicle speed to the set
speed.
However, cruise control does not resume when the vehicle speed is
approximately 16 mph (25 km/h) or less.
When your vehicle is too close to
a vehicle ahead, and sufficient
automatic 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 following a vehicle.
Depress the brake pedal to
ensure an appropriate vehicle-to-
vehicle distance.
■Warnings may not occur when
In the following instances, war nings may not occur even when th e
vehicle-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 control speed was set
● When depressing the accelerator pedal
