The windshield washer nozzles
are automatically heated while
standby state is switched on.
In the fold-out position, the wip-
ers can be folded out from the
windshield, which is important,
for instance, when changing the
wiper blades or for folding away
under frosty conditions.1
Switch on standby state.
2 Move the wiper lever to the
lowest position and hold it
there until the wipers stop at
a nearly vertical position.
3 Fold the wipers all the way
away from the windshield.
After the wipers are folded back
down, the wiper system must be
reactivated.
1 Fold the wipers back down
onto the windshield.
2 Switch on standby state and
press and hold the wiper
lever down again.

WARNING
If the wipers start moving in the
folded away state, body parts can
be jammed or damage may occur
to parts of the vehicle. There is a
risk of injury or risk of damage to
property. Make sure that the vehi-

and the wipers are folded in when
switching on.
NOTICE
If the wipers are frozen to the
windshield, the wiper blades can
be torn off and the wiper motor
can overheat when switching on.
There is a risk of damage to prop-

The lane departure warning
alerts when the vehicle is about
to run off the road or exit the
lane.
This camera-based system
warns starting at a minimum
speed.
The minimum speed is coun-
try-specific and is displayed in
the menu for the Toyota Supra
Safety systems.
Warnings are issued by means
of a steering wheel vibration. The severity of the steering
wheel vibration can be adjusted.
The system does not provide a
warning if the turn signal is set in
the respective direction before
leaving the lane.
Depending on the equipment
version, if in the speed range up
to 155 mph/250 km/h a lane
marking is crossed, the system
may intervene with a brief active
steering intervention in addition
to vibrating. The system thus
helps keep the vehicle in the
lane.

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.
ABS prevents locking of the
wheels during braking.
The vehicle maintains its steer-
ing power even during full brake
applications, which increases
the active safety.
ABS is operational every time
you start the engine.
Situations which the ABS can-
not operate sufficiently:
When entering a curve at an
excessively high rate of speed
In this case, even if the ABS oper-
ates, it cannot ope rate sufficiently
to avoid a possible dangerous situ-
ation. The driver is solely responsi-
ble for understanding their
surroundings and d riving 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.

other vehicles, etc. Increase
the distance between your
vehicle and preceding vehi-
cles and drive safely at a
lower speed than normal,
avoiding sudden accelera-
tion, braking or steering oper-
ations.
Use the rear defroster and air
conditioning system to pre-
vent the windows from fog-
ging up.
Hydroplaning is more likely to
occur when driving on ruts or
through large puddles.
On wet or slushy roads, a
wedge of water can form
between the tires and road sur-
face.
This phenomenon is referred to
as hydroplaning. It is character-
ized by a partial or complete
loss of contact between the tires
and the road surface, ultimately
undermining your ability to steer
and brake the vehicle.
When driving through water, fol-
low the following:
Deactivate Auto Start/Stop
function.
Drive through calm water only.
Drive through water only if it is
not deeper than maximum 9.8
inches/25 cm.
Drive through water no faster
than walking speed, up to 3
mph/5 km/h.
The vehicle is equipped with an
Antilock Braking System ABS as
a standard feature.
Perform an emergency stop in
situations that require such.
Steering is still responsive. You
can still avoid any obstacles with
a minimum of steering effort.
Pulsation of the brake pedal and
sounds from the hydraulic cir-
cuits indicate that the Antilock
Braking System ABS is in its
active mode.

vehicle roll.
The flow of fuel is interrupted
while coasting.
Switch off the engine during lon-
ger stops, for instance at traffic
lights, railroad crossings or in
traffic congestion.
The Auto Start/Stop function of
the vehicle automatically
switches off the engine during a
stop.
If the engine is switched off and
then restarted rather than leav-
ing the engine running con-
stantly, fuel consumption and
emissions are reduced. Sav-
ings can begin within a few sec-
onds of switching off the engine.
In addition, fuel consumption is
also determined by other fac-
tors, such as driving style, road
conditions, maintenance or envi-
ronmental factors.
Functions such as seat heating
and the rear window defroster require a lot of energy and
increase fuel consumption,
especially in city and
stop-and-go traffic.
Switch off these functions if they
are not needed.
Have the vehicle maintained
regularly to achieve optimal
vehicle efficiency and service
life. Toyota recommends that
maintenance work be performed
by Toyota.

nance System, refer to page
