WARNING
■Before using dynamic radar
cruise control with full-speed
range
●Driving safely is the sole
responsibility of the driver. Do
not rely solely on the system,
and drive safely by always pay-
ing careful attention to your sur-
roundings.
●The dynamic radar cruise con-
trol with full-speed range pro-
vides 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.225
• Conditions under which the vehicle-to-vehicle distance con-
trol mode may not function cor-
rectly:
P. 2 2 6
●Set the speed appropriately
depending on the speed limit,
traffic flow, road conditions,
weather conditions, etc. The
driver is responsible for check-
ing the set speed.
●Even when the system is func-
tioning normally, the condition of
the preceding vehicle as
detected by the system may dif-
fer from the condition observed
by the driver. Therefore, the
driver must always remain alert,
assess the danger of each situ-
ation and drive safely. Relying
solely on this system or assum-
ing the system ensures safety
while driving can lead to an
accident, resulting in death or
serious injury.
●Switch the dynamic radar cruise
control with full-speed range
setting to off, using the cruise
control main switch when not in
use.
■Cautions regarding the driv-
ing assist systems
Observe the following precau-
tions, as there are limitations to
the assistance provided by the
system. Failure to do so may
cause an accident resulting in
death or serious injury.

2184-5. Using the driving support systems
WARNING
●Assisting the driver to measure
following distance
The dynamic radar cruise control
with full-speed range is only
intended to help the driver in
determining the following distance
between the driver’s own vehicle
and a designated vehicle traveling
ahead. It is not a mechanism that
allows careless or inattentive driv-
ing, and it is not a system that can
assist the driver in low-visibility
conditions.
It is still necessary for driver to
pay close attention to the vehi-
cle’s surroundings.
●Assisting the driver to judge
proper following distance
The dynamic radar cruise control
with full-speed range determines
whether the following distance
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
with full-speed range does not
include functions which will pre-
vent or avoid collisions with vehi-
cles ahead of your vehicle.
Therefore, if there is ever any
possibility of dange r, the driver
must take immediate and direct
control of the vehicle and act
appropriately in order to ensure
the safety of all involved.
■Situations unsuitable for
dynamic radar cruise control
with full-speed range
Do not use dynamic radar cruise
control with full-speed range in
any of the following situations.
Doing so may result in inappropri-
ate speed control and could
cause an accident resulting in
death or serious injury.
●Roads where there are pedes-
trians, 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 sharp up and down
gradients
Vehicle speed may exceed the set
speed when driving down a steep
hill.
●At entrances to freeways and
highways
●When weather conditions are
bad enough that they may pre-
vent the sensors from detecting
correctly (fog, snow, sand-
storm, heavy rain, etc.)
●When there is rain, snow, etc.
on the front surface of the radar
or front camera
●In traffic conditions that require
frequent repeated acceleration
and deceleration
●When your vehicle is towing a
trailer or during emergency tow-
ing
●When an approach warning
buzzer is heard often

■Automatic cancelation of vehi-
cle-to-vehicle distance control
mode
Vehicle-to-vehicle distance control
mode is automatically canceled in
the following 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 cor-
rectly because it is covered in
some way.
●When the brake control or output
restriction control of a driving sup-
port system operates. (For exam-
ple: Pre-Collision System,

●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 canceled for
any reasons other than the above,
there may be a malfunction in the
system. Contact your Toyota dealer.
■Automatic cancelation of con-
stant speed control mode
Constant speed control mode is
automatically canceled in the follow-
ing situations:
●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 sup-
port system operates. (For exam-
ple: Pre-Collision System,
Drive-Start Control)
●The parking brake is operated.
If constant speed control mode is
automatically canceled for any rea-
sons other than the above, there
may be a malfunction in the system.
Contact your Toyota dealer.
■Brake operation
A brake operation sound may be
heard and the brake pedal response
may change, but these are not mal-
functions.
■Warning messages and buzzers
for dynamic radar cruise con-
trol with full-speed range
Warning messages and buzzers are
used to indicate a system malfunc-
tion or to inform the driver of the
need for caution while driving. If a
warning message is shown on the
multi-information di splay, read the
message and follow the instructions.
(  P.193, 515)
■When the sensor may not be
correctly detecting the vehicle
ahead
In the case of the following and
depending on the conditions, oper-
ate the brake pedal when decelera-
tion of the system is insufficient or
operate the accelerator pedal when
acceleration is required.
As the sensor may not be able to
correctly detect these types of vehi-
cles, the approach warning
(  P.223) may not be activated.
●Vehicles that cut in suddenly
●Vehicles traveling at low speeds
●Vehicles that are not moving in the
same lane
●Vehicles with small rear ends

2264-5. Using the driving support systems

●When water or snow thrown up by
the surrounding vehicles hinders
the detecting of the sensor
●When your vehicle is pointing
upwards (caused by a heavy load
in the luggage compartment, etc.)
●Preceding vehicle has an
extremely high ground clearance
■Conditions under which the
vehicle-to-vehicle distance con-
trol mode may not function cor-
rectly
In the case of the following condi-
tions, operate the brake pedal (or
accelerator pedal, depending on the
situation) as necessary.
As the sensor may not be able to
correctly detect vehicles ahead, the
system may not operate properly.
●When the road curves or when the
lanes are narrow
●When steering wheel operation or
your position in the lane is unsta-
ble
●When the vehicle ahead of you
decelerates suddenly

BSM (Blind Spot Moni-
tor)*
The Blind Spot Monitor is a
system that uses rear side
radar sensors installed on
the inner side of the rear
bumper on the left and right
side to assist the driver in
confirming safety when
changing lanes.
WARNING
■Cautions regarding the use of
the system
The driver is solely responsible for
safe driving. A lways drive safely,
taking care to observe your sur-
roundings.
The Blind Spot Monitor is a sup-
plementary function which alerts
the driver that a vehicle is in a
blind spot of the outside rear view
mirrors or is approaching rapidly
from behind into a blind spot. Do
not overly rely on the Blind Spot
Monitor. As the function cannot
judge if it is safe to change lanes,
over reliance could lead to an
accident resulting in death or seri-
ous injury.
As the system may not function
correctly under certain condi-
tions, the driver’s own visual con-
firmation of safety is necessary.
