Driving
1 Pressing the cancel switch can-
cels the speed control.
The speed control is also canceled
when the brake pedal is depressed.
(When the vehicle has been stopped by
system control, depressing the brake
pedal does not cancel the setting.)
2 Pressing the “+RES” switch
resumes the cruise control and
returns vehicle speed to the set
speed.
When your vehicle is too close to a
vehicle ahead, and sufficient auto-
matic 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 follow-
ing a vehicle. Depress the brake
pedal to ensure an appropriate
vehicle-to-vehicle distance.
QWarnings may not occur when
In the following instances, warnings
may not occur even when the vehi-
cle-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 con-
trol speed was set
 When depressing the accelerator
pedal
When constant speed control mode
is selected, your vehicle will main-
tain a set speed without controlling

Select this mode only when vehi-
cle-to-vehicle distance control
mode does not function correctly
due to a dirty radar, etc.
1With the cruise control off, press
and hold the cruise control main
switch for 1.5 seconds or more.
Immediately after the switch is pressed,
the dynamic radar cruise control indica-
tor will come on. Afterwards, it switches
to the cruise control indicator.
Switching to constant speed control
mode is only possible when operating
the switch with the cruise control off.
2Accelerate or decelerate, with
accelerator pedal operation, to
the desired vehicle speed (at or
above approximately 30 km/h
[20 mph]) and press the “-SET”
switch to set the speed.
Cruise control “SET” indicator will come
on.
The vehicle speed at the moment the
switch is released becomes the set
speed.
Adjusting the speed setting: P.337
Canceling and resuming the speed set-ting: P.339
When this function is enabled and
the system is operating in vehicle-
to-vehicle distance control mode
(P.335), when a speed limit sign
is detected, the recognized speed
limit will be displayed with an
up/down arrow. The set speed can
be increased/reduced to the recog-
nized speed limit by pressing and
holding the “+RES”/“-SET” switch.
When the current set speed is
lower than the recognized speed
limit
Press and hold the “+RES” switch.

Press and hold the “-SET” switch.
Dynamic Radar Cruise Control with
Road Sign Assist can be
enabled/disabled in the screen
on the multi-information display.
(P.184)
When the Dynamic Radar Cruise
Control with Road Sign Assist is
operating, while driving down a hill,
the vehicle speed may exceed the
set speed.
In this case, the displayed set vehi-
cle speed will be highlighted and a
buzzer will sound to alert the driver.
QDynamic radar cruise control with
full-speed range can be set when
OThe shift lever is in D.
OThe desired set speed can be set
when the vehicle speed is approxi-
mately 30 km/h (20 mph) or more.
(However, when the vehicle speed is
set while driving at below approxi-
mately 30 km/h [20 mph], the set
speed will be set to approximately 30 km/h [20 mph].)
QAccelerating after setting the vehi-
cle speed
The vehicle can accelerate by operating
the accelerator pedal. After accelerat-
ing, the set speed resumes. However,
during vehicle-to-vehicle distance con-
trol mode, the vehicle speed may
decrease below the set speed in order
to maintain the distance to the preced-
ing vehicle.
QWhen the vehicle stops while fol-
low-up cruising
OPressing the “+RES” switch while the
vehicle ahead stops will resume fol-
low-up cruising if the vehicle ahead
starts off within approximately 3 sec-
onds after the switch is pressed.
OIf the vehicle ahead starts off within 3
seconds after your vehicle stops, fol-
low-up cruising will be resumed.
QAutomatic cancelation of vehicle-
to-vehicle distance control mode
Vehicle-to-vehicle distance control
mode is automatically canceled in the
following situations.
OVSC is activated.
OTRC is activated for a period of time.
OWhen the VSC or TRC system is
turned off.
OThe sensor cannot detect correctly
because it is covered in some way.
OWhen the brake control or output
restriction control of a driving support
system operates.
(For example: Pre-Collision System,
Drive-Start Control)
OThe parking brake is operated.
OThe vehicle is stopped by system con-
trol on a steep incline.
OThe 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

3425-5. Using the driving support systems
If vehicle-to-vehicle distance control
mode is automatically canceled for any
reasons other than the above, there
may be a malfunction in the system.
Contact any authorized Toyota retailer
or Toyota authorized repairer, or any
reliable repairer.
QAutomatic cancelation of constant
speed control mode
Constant speed control mode is auto-
matically canceled in the following situa-
tions:
OActual vehicle speed is more than
approximately 16 km/h (10 mph)
below the set vehicle speed.
OActual vehicle speed falls below
approximately 30 km/h (20 mph).
OVSC is activated.
OTRC is activated for a period of time.
OWhen the VSC or TRC system is
turned off.
OWhen the brake control or output
restriction control of a driving support
system operates.
(For example: Pre-Collision System,
Drive-Start Control)
OThe parking brake is operated.
If constant speed control mode is auto-
matically canceled for any reasons other
than the above, there may be a malfunc-
tion in the system. Contact any autho-
rized Toyota retailer or Toyota
authorized repairer, or any reliable
repairer.
QThe Dynamic Radar Cruise Control
with Road Sign Assist may not
operate properly when (vehicles
with RSA)
As the Dynamic Radar Cruise Control
with Road Sign Assist may not operate
properly in conditions in which RSA may
not operate or detect correctly
(P.331), when using this function,
make sure to check the speed limit sign
displayed.In the following situations, the set speed
may not be changed to the recognized
speed limit by pressing and holding the
“+RES”/“-SET” switch.
OIf speed limit information is not avail-
able
OWhen the recognized speed limit is
the same as the set speed
OWhen the recognized speed limit is
outside of the speed range that the
dynamic radar cruise control system
can operate
QBrake operation
A brake operation sound may be heard
and the brake pedal response may
change, but these are not malfunctions.
QWarning messages and buzzers for
dynamic 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 cau-
tion while driving. If a warning message
is shown on the multi-information dis-
play, read the message and follow the
instructions. (P.309, 518)
QWhen the sensor may not be cor-
rectly detecting the vehicle ahead
In the case of the following and depend-
ing on the conditions, operate the brake
pedal when deceleration of the system
is insufficient or operate the accelerator
pedal when acceleration is required.
As the sensor may not be able to cor-
rectly detect these types of vehicles, the
approach warning (P.339) may not be
activated.
OVehicles that cut in suddenly
OVehicles traveling at low speeds
OVehicles that are not moving in the
same lane
OVehicles with small rear ends (trailers
with no load on board, etc.)

OMotorcycles traveling in the same lane
OWhen water or snow thrown up by the surrounding vehicles hinders the
detecting of the sensor
OWhen your vehicle is pointing
upwards (caused by a heavy load in the luggage compartment, etc.)
OPreceding vehicle has an extremely high ground clearance
QConditions under which the vehi-cle-to-vehicle distance control mode may not function correctly
In the case of the following conditions, operate the brake pedal (or accelerator pedal, depending on the situation) as
necessary.
As the sensor may not be able to cor- rectly detect vehicles ahead, the system
may not operate properly.
OWhen the road curves or when the
lanes are narrow
OWhen steering wheel operation or
your position in the lane is unstable
OWhen the vehicle ahead of you decel-
erates suddenly
OWhen driving on a road surrounded by
a structure, such as in a tunnel or on a bridge
OWhile the vehicle speed is decreasing to the set speed after the vehicle accelerates by depressing the accel-
erator pedal
