The selected setting is stored for
the driver profile currently used. If you leave the lane and if a
lane marking has been
detected, the steering wheel
vibrates in accordance with the
steering wheel vibration setting.
When the turn signal is switched
on in the corresponding direc-
tion before changing the lane, a
warning is not issued.
Depending on the equipment
version: if, in the speed range
up to 130 mph/210 km/h a lane
marking is crossed, the system
may intervene with a brief active
steering intervention in addition
to vibrating. The steering inter-
vention helps keep the vehicle in
the lane. The steering interven-
tion can be noticed on the steer-
ing wheel and can be manually
overridden at any time. During
an active steering intervention,
the display in the instrument
cluster will blink.

Depending on the equipment, in
the event of multiple active
steering interventions by the
system within 3 minutes without
the driver's intervention at the
steering wheel, an acoustic
warning will sound. A short
warning signal will sound at the
second steering intervention.
Beginning with the third steering
intervention, an continuous
warning will sound.
In addition, a vehicle message is
displayed.
The warning signal and vehicle
message are an encouragement
to pay closer attention to the
lane.
For instance, the warning will be
canceled in the following situa-
tions:
Automatically after a few sec-
onds.
When returning to your own
lane.
When braking hard.
When using the turn signal.
If VSC Vehicle Stability Con-

In the event of missing, worn,
poorly visible, merging,
diverging, or multiple lane
markings such as in construc-
tion areas.
When lane markings are cov-
ered in snow, ice, dirt or
water.
In tight curves or on narrow
lanes.
When lane markings are cov-

zone, the steering wheel
vibrates briefly and the light in

brightly.
The warning stops when the
other vehicle has left the critical
area or after deactivation of the

If cargo protrudes.
A vehicle message is displayed
when the system is not fully
functional.
Depending on the selected
warning settings, e.g., warning
time, more or fewer warnings
can be displayed. However,
there may also be an excess of
premature warnings of critical
situations.
In the event of an accident, the
system can bring the vehicle to
a halt automatically without
intervention by the driver in cer-
tain situations. This can reduce
the risk of a further collision and
the consequences thereof.
After coming to a halt, the brake
is released automatically. It can be necessary to bring the
vehicle in certain situations to a
halt quicker.
To do this, for a short time the
braking pressure applied when
stepping on the brake pedal
must be higher than the braking
pressure achieved by the auto-
matic braking function. This
interrupts automatic braking.
It can be necessary to interrupt
automatic braking in certain situ-
ations, for instance for an eva-
sive maneuver.
Interrupt automatic braking:
By pressing the brake pedal.
By pressing the accelerator
pedal.
The system can detect decreas-
ing alertness or fatigue of the
driver during long, monotonous
trips, for instance on highways.
In this situation, it is recom-
mended that the driver takes a
break.

The system is switched on each
time drive-ready state is
switched on.
After travel has begun, the sys-
tem monitors certain aspects of
the driver's behavior, so that
decreasing alertness or fatigue
can be detected.
This procedure takes the follow-
ing criteria into account:
Personal driving style, for
instance steering behavior.
Driving conditions, for
instance length of trip.
Starting at approx. 43 mph/70
km/h, the system is active and
can also display a recommenda-
tion to take a break.
The Driver attention control is active automatically with each
switching on of drive-ready state
and can thus display a break
recommendation.
The break recommendation can
also be switched on or off and
adjusted via Toyota Supra Com-
mand.

The function may be limited in
the following situations and may
be output an incorrect warning
or no warning at all.
When the clock is set incor-
rectly.
When the vehicle speed is
mainly below about 43
mph/70 km/h.
With a sporty driving style,
such as during rapid accelera-
tion or when cornering fast.
In active driving situations,
such as when changing lanes
frequently.
When the road surface is
poor.
In the event of strong side
winds.
The system is reset approx. 45
minutes after parking the vehi-
cle, for instance in the case of a
break during longer trips on
highways. 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.

not operate sufficiently:

Supra Owner’s Manual_U (from Mar. ’20

ates, it cannot oper
ate sufficiently
to avoid a possible dangerous situ-
ation. The driver is solely responsi-
ble for understanding their
surroundings and driving 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.

Hold 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.
