If the cruise control is on, you can then modify the initial speed:- using button 2 or 3:F by successive short presses, to modify by steps of + or - 1 mph (km/h),F by a maintained press, to modify in steps of + or - 5 mph (km/h).
Modification of the cruise
control speed only
- by pressing button 5, if your vehicle has speed memorisation:F the six memorised settings are displayed in the touch screen,F choose a speed setting: it is displayed in the instrument panel.The selection screen closes after a few moments.The modification is then taken into account.
For more information on Road Sign Assist and in particular its memorisation, refer to the corresponding section.
As a precaution, it is recommended that
you select a cruise speed setting close to the current speed of your vehicle.
- by pressing button 5, if your vehicle has Road Sign Assist:F the speed to memorise is displayed in the instrument panel,F press button 5 again to save the speed.The setting is then displayed in the instrument panel.
Inter-vehicle distance
Using a radar with a range of about 100 metres, located at the front of the vehicle, this system detects a vehicle running in front of your
vehicle.It automatically adapts the speed of your vehicle to that of the vehicle in front.If the vehicle in front is running more slowly, the system progressively reduces the speed of your vehicle using just engine braking (as if the driver had pressed the "-" button).If your vehicle is too close to, or approaching too quickly the vehicle in front, the adaptive cruise control is automatically deactivated. The driver is then alerted by an audible signal, accompanied by a message.If the vehicle in front accelerates or changes lane, the adaptive cruise control progressively accelerates your vehicle to return to the programmed speed.If the driver operates a direction indicator to overtake a slower vehicle, the adaptive cruise control allows your vehicle to temporarily approach the vehicle in front to assist the overtaking manoeuvre, though never exceeding the programmed speed.

This value remains in memory, regardless of the state of the system.
F Press button 6 to select a new inter-vehicle distance setting from the three levels ("Close", "Normal", "Distant").
Modification of the inter-vehicle distanceIn the event of the presence of a vehicle detected by the inter-vehicle distance radar, if the speed selected is too far above the speed of that vehicle, the system is not activated and the alert message "Activation not possible, conditions unsuitable" is displayed until driving conditions are safe to allow activation of the system.
The inter-vehicle distance setting is memorised when the ignition is switched off.
Exceeding the programmed
speed
Simply release the accelerator pedal to return to the programmed speed.
It is possible to exceed the programmed speed temporarily by depressing the accelerator pedal.
The adaptive cruise control can be paused manually with the control, or automatically:- by pressing the brake or clutch pedal,- in the event of operation of the ESC, for safety reasons,- when an inter-vehicle distance threshold is reached (calculated according to the relative speeds of your vehicle and the vehicle in front and the inter-vehicle distance setting selected),- when the distance between your vehicle and the one in front becomes too small,- when the speed of the vehicle in front is too low,- when the speed of your vehicle becomes too low.
Pause
If the programmed setting is unintentionally exceeded, descending a steep hill for example, the speed setting in the instrument panel flashes as a warning.

The following table describes the alerts and the messages displayed for the different driving situations.The display of these alerts is not sequential.
Driving situations and associated alerts
SymbolAssociated messageComments
No vehicle detected: the system operates as a standard cruise control.
Detection of a vehicle, at the limit of the range of the radar: the system operates as a standard cruise control.
"SPEED ADJUSTED"Detection of a vehicle that is too close or running at a speed lower than your vehicle's cruise speed setting.The system uses engine braking to slow your vehicle (within a limit of 20 mph (30 km/h)) and then hold it at the speed of the vehicle in front so as to observe the programmed inter-vehicle time.When automatically slowing down behind a vehicle, your true speed may be higher than the "adjusted speed" displayed.
"SPEED ADJUSTED"When the adjusted speed reaches the limit of regulation (speed setting less than 20 mph (30 km/h)), the adjusted speed flashes together with the speed setting to signal that automatic deactivation of the system is imminent.
"Cruise control paused"If the system exceeds the limit of speed adjustment possible by the system and in the absence of any reaction by the driver (operation of the direction indicator, change of lane, reduction of the speed of the vehicle), the system is automatically paused.The display of the deactivation message is accompanied by an audible signal.
Driving

241
When the adaptive cruise control is automatically paused, it can only be reactivated when safe conditions are restored. The message "Activation not possible, conditions unsuitable" is displayed while reactivation is not possible.When the conditions allow, it is recommended that the function be reactivated by pressing button 2 (SET+) or 3 (SET-), which will make the current speed of your vehicle the new cruise speed setting, rather than by pressing button 4 (on/pause) which reactivates the cruise control using the old cruise speed setting, which may be very different from the current speed of your vehicle.
The speed regulation range is limited to a maximum difference of 20 mph (30 km/h) between the speed setting and the speed of the vehicle in front.Above this, the system goes into pause if the safe distance becomes too small.The adaptive cruise control uses only engine braking to slow the vehicle. Consequently the vehicle loses speed slowly, as when releasing the accelerator pedal.The system is paused automatically:- if the vehicle in front slows down too much or too suddenly, and the driver does not brake,- if a vehicle comes between your vehicle and the vehicle in front,- if the system does not slow the vehicle enough to continue to maintain a safe distance, for example when descending a steep hill.
Limits of operation
As the radar's field of detection is quite narrow, it is possible that the system may not detect:
- vehicles of reduced width, such as motorcycles, for example,
- vehicles not running in the middle of the lane,
- vehicles entering a corner,- vehicles changing lane at the last moment.
The cruise control does not take account of:- stationary vehicles,- vehicles driving in the opposite direction.

In the event of a fault with the adaptive cruise control, you are alerted by an audible signal and display of the message message "Driving aid functions fault".Have the system checked by an authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped professional.
Operating faultThe adaptive cruise control operates by day and at night, in fog or moderate rainfall.
When the cruise control is working, take care if making a maintained press on one of the cruise control programmed speed modification buttons: this can lead to a very quick change in the speed of your vehicle.Do not use the adaptive cruise control on slippery sur faces or in heavy traffic.
When descending a steep hill, the cruise control may not be able to prevent the vehicle from exceeding the programmed speed.When ascending a steep hill or when towing, it might not be possible to achieve or maintain the programmed speed.
The use of mats not approved by Toyota may inter fere with the operation of the adaptive cruise control.To avoid any risk of jamming the pedals:- ensure that mats are secured c o r r e c t l y,- never fit one mat on top of another.It is recommended that you always keep
your feet close to the pedals.
If the difference between the programmed speed setting and the speed of the vehicle in front is too great, the speed cannot be adjusted: the cruise control is automatically deactivated.
The system does not act on the braking system, but works only with engine braking.The regulation range is limited: there will no longer be any adjustment of speed if the difference between the programmed speed setting and the speed of the vehicle in front becomes too high.
The adaptive cruise control cannot in any circumstances replace the observation of speed limits, nor the need for the vigilance on the part of the driver.

244
The Autonomous emergency braking system does not operate:- if the front bumper is damaged,- if the system has been triggered in the last 10 seconds,- if the electronic stability control system has a fault.
Limits of operation
It is recommended that the system be deactivated in the vehicle configuration menu in the following cases:- if the windscreen has impact damage close to the detection camera,- when towing a trailer or caravan,- when a load on the roof rack extends beyond the windscreen (for example: long objects),- when the vehicle is being towed, with the engine running,- when a "space-saver" type spare wheel is fitted (if your vehicle has one),- when on a rolling road for a service in a workshop,- when in an automatic car wash,- if the brake lamps are not working.
Following an impact, the system is automatically disabled; contact an authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped professional to have the system checked.
Forward collision warning
Depending on the degree of risk of collision detected by the system and the alert threshold chosen, different levels of alert can be triggered and displayed in the instrument panel or the head-up display.
This level of alert is based on the inter-vehicle time between your vehicle and the vehicle ahead.
Level 1: visual alert only, warning you that the vehicle ahead is very close.A message on your vigilance is displayed as you close on the vehicle ahead.
This information also appears in the head-up display.For more information on the Head-up display, refer to the corresponding section.
Driving

246
This system, also called automatic emergency
braking, aims to reduce the speed of impact or avoid a frontal collision by your vehicle (between 3 and 87 mph (5 and 140 km/h)) where the driver fails to react.Using a radar and a camera, this system acts on the vehicle's braking system.
Autonomous emergency
braking
The driver can take back control of the vehicle at any time by sharply turning the steering wheel and/or pressing the accelerator pedal.
Operation of the system may be felt by slight vibration in the brake pedal.If the vehicle comes to a complete stop, the automatic braking is maintained for 1 to 2 seconds.If your vehicle has a manual gearbox, in the event of the automatic emergency braking bringing the vehicle to a complete stop, the engine may stall.
If your vehicle has an automatic gearbox, in the event of the automatic emergency braking bringing the vehicle to a complete stop, the vehicle will move off again; press the brake pedal.
If automatic emergency braking is not activated, you are alerted by the fixed display of this warning lamp accompanied by a message.
If the radar and the camera have confirmed the presence of a vehicle or a pedestrian, this warning lamp flashes when the system is operating.
Important: if operation of the automatic emergency braking is triggered, you should take back control of your vehicle and brake with the pedal to add to or finish the automatic braking.

Clean the front bumper, removing the snow, mud, ...
If one of the two sensors (camera or radar) is masked or its visibility is reduced, while the other sensor is able to work normally, the system still operates, but at a lower level of per formance. This is not indicated by a message or a warning lamp.To ensure correct operation of the radar radar, do not paint over the paintwork on the vehicle's bumper.
Keep the windscreen in front of the camera clean.Do not allow snow to accumulate on the bonnet or roof of the vehicle as this could mask the camera's view.
Lane Departure Alert
System that uses a camera to recognise continuous or broken lines on traffic lanes and triggers an alert if the vehicle wanders off line.If the direction indicator is not used at speeds above 37 mph (60 km/h) and there is a risk of one of these lines on the ground being crossed, the system triggers the alert.The system is particularly useful on motor ways and fast roads.
Detection - Alert
You are alerted by the flashing of this warning lamp in the instrument panel, accompanied by an audible signal.
No alert is given while the direction indicators are operating and for approximately 20 seconds after the direction indicators are switched off.
The Lane Departure Alert cannot in any circumstances replace the need for vigilance on the part of the driver.It is necessary to observe the driving regulations and to take a break every two hours.
Driving

250
Driver Attention Alert
The system resets itself if one of the following conditions is met:- engine running, the vehicle has been stationary for more than 15 minutes,- the ignition has been switched off for a few minutes,- the driver's seat belt is unfastened and their door is open.
As soon as the speed of the vehicle drops below 40 mph (65 km/h), the system goes into standby.The driving time is counted again once the speed is above 40 mph (65 km/h).
The system cannot in any circumstances replace the need for vigilance on the part of the driver.Do not take the wheel if you are tired.
The system triggers an alert once it detects that the driver has not taken a break after two hours of driving at a speed above 40 mph (65 km/h).
It is recommended that you take a break as soon as you feel tired or at least every two hours.Depending on version, the vehicle either has the "Driving time warning system" only, or this combined with the "Driver Attention Alert".
Driving time warning
With the audio system
In the "Personalisation-configuration" menu, activate/deactivate "Fatigue Detection System".
Activation / Deactivation
The system is activated or deactivated via the vehicle configuration menu.
This alert takes the form of the display of a message encouraging you to take a break, accompanied by an audible signal.If the driver does not follow this advice, the alert is repeated hourly until the vehicle is stopped.
In the vehicle settings menu, activate/deactivate "Fatigue Detection System".

Blind spot monitoring system
A warning lamp appears in the door mirror on the side in question:- immediately, when being overtaken,- after a delay of about one second, when overtaking a vehicle slowly.
This driving assistance system warns the driver of the presence of another vehicle in the blind spot angle of their vehicle (areas masked from the driver's field of vision), as soon as this presents a potential danger.
The alert is given by a warning lamp which comes on in the door mirror on the side in question as soon as a vehicle - car, lorry, bicycle - is detected and the following conditions are fulfilled:- all the vehicles must be moving in the same direction and on adjacent lanes,- the speed of your vehicle is between 7 and 87 mph (12 and 140 km/h),- when you overtake a vehicle with a speed difference of less than 6 mph (10 km/h),- when a vehicle overtakes you with a speed difference of less than 15 mph (25 km/h),- the traffic must be flowing normally,- in the case of an overtaking manoeuvre, if this is prolonged and the vehicle being overtaken returns to the blind spot,- you are driving on a straight or slightly curved road,- your vehicle is not pulling a trailer, a caravan...
This system is designed to improve safety when driving and is in no circumstances a substitute for the use of the interior rear view mirror and door mirrors. It is the driver's responsibility to constantly check the traffic, to assess the distances and relative speeds of other vehicles and to predict their movements before deciding whether to change lane.The blind spot sensor system does not replace the need for vigilance on the part of the driver.
