Variable light distribution enables
even better illumination of the car-
riageway.
The light distribution is automati-
cally adapted to the speed.
If equipment includes a navigation system, the light distribution is
automatically adapted depending
on the navigation data and speed.
The illuminated area of the
low-beam headlights is extended at
the sides.
The illumination width of the
low-beam headlights is expanded.
In sharp turns up to a specified
speed, for example in hairpin bends
or when turning off, a cornering
light is added to illuminate the
inside area of the bend.
The cornering light is activated
automatically depending on the
steering angle or use of the turn
indicators.
The cornering light may be acti-
vated automatically when driving in
reverse, irrespective of the steer-
ing angle.
Automatic high-beam detects other
road users in good time and acti-
vates or deactivates the high beam
depending on the traffic situation.

Automatic high-beam ensures that
the high-beam headlights are
switched on when the traffic situa-
tion allows. The high-beam head-
lights are not switched on by the
system in the low speed range.
The system responds to the lights
from oncoming traffic and traffic
driving ahead of you, and to ambi-
ent lighting, for example in built-up
areas.
The high-beam headlights can be
switched on and off manually at any
time.
If the vehicle is equipped with daz-
zle-free Automatic high-beam, the
high-beam headlights are not
switched off for oncoming vehicles
or vehicles driving ahead of you;
instead, the areas of the beam that
would otherwise dazzle the oncom-
ing traffic or traffic driving ahead
are masked off. In this case, the
blue indicator lamp continues to
illuminate.
If the headlights are converted, see
page 176, automatic high-beam
may only function to a limited
extent.
1Press the button on the
light switch element.
The LED in the button illuminates.
2Press the button on the turn
indicator lever.
The system will switch automati-
cally between low-beam and
high-beam headlights.
If a journey is interrupted with auto-
matic high-beam activated: when
the journey is resumed, automatic
high-beam remains activated.

vated by switching the high beams

Automatic high-beam cannot
replace the driver's own judgement
as to when to use the high-beam
headlights. Therefore activate the
dipped headlights manually if the
situation requires it.
In the following situations, the sys-
tem will not operate or its operation
will be impaired and your interven-
tion may be required:
In extremely unfavourable
weather conditions such as fog
or heavy precipitation.
When detecting poorly lit road
users such as pedestrians,
cyclists or horse riders or car-
riages and when trains or ships
are close to the road, or when
animals are crossing the road.
On narrow bends, on steep hill-
tops or in depressions, when
there is crossing traffic or if the
view of oncoming vehicles on a motorway is obstructed.
In poorly lit towns or where there
are highly reflective signs.
When the windscreen in front of
the rear-view mirror is covered
with condensation, dirt, stickers,
labels, etc.
Before the rear fog light is switched
on, the low-beam headlights must
be switched on.
If automatic driving lights control,
see page 171, has been activated,
the low-beam headlights switch on
automatically when the rear fog
light is switched on.

Supra Owner's Manual4-1. DRIVING HINTS
DRIVING HINTS
When visibility is poor due to fog,
even if it is daytime, turn the low
beam headlights on to make your
vehicle more visible to other vehi-
cles, etc. Drive with caution at a low
speed, using the centerline, guard-
rails, taillights of a preceding vehi-
cle, etc., as guide.
When the vehicle is being blown by
crosswinds, drive at a lower speed
and grip the steering wheel
stronger than normal.
The vehicle is especially suscepti-
ble to crosswinds when exiting a
tunnel or underpass, when driving on a bridge or embankment, or
when passing or being passed by a
truck or other large vehicle.
During a rain storm or when the
road surface is wet, the road sur-
face may be slippery and visibil-
ity may be reduced. In this case,
turn the low beam headlights on
to make your vehicle more visi-
ble to other vehicles, etc.
Increase the distance between
your vehicle and preceding vehi-
cles and drive safely at a lower
speed than normal, avoiding
sudden acceleration, braking or
steering operations.
Use the rear defroster and air
conditioning system to prevent
the windows from fogging up.
Hydroplaning is more likely to
occur when driving on ruts or
through large puddles.
On wet or slushy roads, a wedge of
water can form between the tyres
and the road. Driving in inclement weather

5Fold in the wipers.
Lights and bulbs are an important
aspect of driving safety.
All headlights and other lights use
LED or laser technology.
Some equipment versions have
light-emitting diodes behind a cover
as a light source. These light-emit-
ting diodes are similar to conven-
tional lasers and are classified by
legislation as Class 1 light-emitting
diodes.
In the case of a defect, the manu-
facturer of the vehicle recom-
mends having respective work
carried out by any authorized
Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized
repairer, or any reliable repairer.During cool or humid weather, the
headlight glass can mist over on
the inside. When driving with the
lights switched on, the condensa-
tion disappears after a short time.
There is no need to replace the
headlight glass.
If moisture increasingly forms, for
example if there are water droplets
in the lamp despite the headlights
being switched on, have the head-
lights checked.
The battery is maintenance-free.

Safety notes
WARNING
Concentrated laser light can cause
irritation or lasting damage to the ret-
ina of the eye. There is a danger of
injury. The manufacturer of your vehi-
cle recommends having work on the
lighting system, including bulb
replacement, performed by any
authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota
authorized repairer, or any reliable
repairer.
WARNING
Intense brightness can irritate or harm
the retina of the eye. There is a dan-
ger of injury. Do not look directly into
the headlights or other light sources.
Do not remove covers from LEDs.

■Safety note
■General
In a car wash, the vehicle must be
able to roll freely.
Roll or push the vehicle, see page
145.
Some car washes require you to
get out of the vehicle. It is not possi-
ble to lock the vehicle from the out-
side in selector lever position N. If an attempt is made to lock the vehi-
cle, a signal sounds.
Ensure that the remote control is
located in the vehicle.
Switch on drive-ready state, see
page 45.
Do not rub wet headlights dry and
do not use abrasive or corrosive
cleaning agents.
Soak impurities such as insect resi-
dues with shampoo and wash off
with water.
Remove ice with a de-icer spray; do
not use an ice scraper.
After the vehicle has been washed,
briefly apply the brakes to dry them
otherwise braking effectiveness
may be temporarily reduced. The
heat generated by braking dries the
brake discs and brake pads and
protects them against corrosion.
Completely remove residues on the
windscreens to avoid affecting visi-
bility due to smearing, and to
reduce wiping noise and wiper
blade wear.
NOTICE
The vehicle can be damaged if auto-
matic washing bays or car washes
are used incorrectly. There is a dan-
ger of damage to property. Observe
the following notes:
●Textile car washes or systems
using soft brushes are preferable,
to avoid damage to the paintwork.
●Avoid washing bays or car washes
with guide rails higher than 10 cm,
4 in, to avoid damage to the body.
●Note the maximum tyre width of the
guide rail to avoid damage to tyres
and rims.
●Fold in the exterior mirrors to avoid
damaging them.
●Deactivate the wipers and the rain
sensor (if fitted) to avoid damage to
the wiper system.
Entering a car wash with a auto-
matic transmission
NOTICE
Selector lever position P is automati-
cally engaged when standby state is
switched off. There is a danger of
damage to property. Do not switch off
standby state in car washes.
