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.

This system supports driving off
on uphill grades.
1Hold 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. 
Loss of traction of the front
wheels, which can lead to
understeering.

WARNING
The system cannot serve as a
substitute for the driver’s personal
judgment in assessing the traffic
situation. 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 the surrounding traf-
fic situation closely, be ready to
take over steering and braking at
any time, and actively intervene
where appropriate.
WARNING
When driving with a roof load, for
instance with roof-mounted lug-
gage rack, the vehicle's center of
gravity is higher, which increases
the risk of the vehicle tipping in
critical driving sit uations. There is
a risk of accidents or risk of dam-
age to property. Do not deactivate
VSC Vehicle Stability Control Sys-
tem when driving with roof load.

The system may not be fully
functional and may provide
incorrect information in the fol-
lowing situations:
 When signs are fully or par-
tially concealed by objects,
stickers or paint. 
When driving very close to the
vehicle in front of you.
 If the speed limits or road data
stored in the navigation sys-
tem are incorrect.
 If the speed limits vary with
the time of day and the day of
the week.
 In areas not covered by the
navigation system.
 When roads differ from the
navigation, such as due to
changes in road routing.
 In case of electronic traffic
signs.
 When passing buses or trucks
with traffic signs applied to
them.
 If the traffic signs are
non-conforming.
 When signs that are valid for
a parallel road are detected.
 In the presence of coun-
try-specific signs and road
configurations.

*: if equipped
Using this system, a desired
speed and a distance to a vehi-
cle ahead can be adjusted using
the buttons on the steering
wheel.
The system maintains the
desired speed on clear roads.
For this purpose, the vehicle
accelerates or brakes automati-
cally.
If a vehicle is driving ahead of
you, the system adjusts the
speed of your vehicle so that the
set distance to the vehicle
ahead is maintained. The speed
is adjusted as far as the given
situation allows.
Depending on the vehicle set-
tings, the characteristics of the
Cruise Control may change.
The distance can be adjusted in
several steps. For safety rea-
sons, it depends on the respec-
tive speed.

brakes to a halt, and then pro-
ceeds to drive again within a
brief period, the system is able

WARNING
The system cannot serve as a
substitute for the driver’s personal
judgment in assessing the traffic
situation. 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-

any time, and actively intervene
where appropriate.
WARNING
An unsecured vehicle can begin
to move and possibly roll away.
There is a risk of an accident.
Before exiting, secure the vehicle
against rolling.
In order to ensure that the vehicle
is secured against rolling away,
follow the following:
●Set the parking brake.
●On uphill grades or on a down-
hill slope, turn the front wheels
in the direction of the curb.
●On uphill grades or on a down-
hill slope, also secure the vehi-
cle, for instance with a wheel
chock.
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.
WARNING
Risk of accident due to too high
speed differences to other vehi-
cles, for instance in the following
situations:
●When fast approaching a slowly
moving vehicle.
There is a risk of injuries or dan-
ger to life. Watch t raffic closely
and actively intervene where
appropriate.
●Vehicle suddenly swerving into
own lane.
●When fast approaching stand-
ing vehicles.
WARNING
When towing with Toyota Supra
Safety enabled or Cruise Control
switched on, individual functions
may not work correctly. There is a
risk of accident. Switch off all Toy-
ota Supra Safety and Cruise Con-
trol before towing.

The system is controlled by the
following sensors:
• Cameras behind the wind-shield. • Front radar sensor.
Additional information:
Sensors of the vehicle, refer to
page 42.
The system is best used on
well-constructed roads.
The system is functional at
speeds beginning at approx. 20
mph/30 km/h.
The maximum speed that can
be set is limited and, e.g.,
depends on the vehicle and the
vehicle equipment version.
The system can also be acti-
vated when stationary.
The indicator will come on.
