■Gearshift
Gear shifting is only carried out at
the appropriate engine RPM and
vehicle speed.
■Short-term manual operation
In selector lever position D, operat-
ing a shift paddle causes the sys-
tem to switch to manual operation
temporarily.
The gearbox reverts to automatic
operation from manual operation
after a certain period of time of
moderate driving without accelera-
tion or gear shifts using the shift
paddles.
Changing to automatic operation is
possible as follows:
Pull and hold right shift paddle.
In addition to briefly pulling right
shift paddle, briefly pull left shift
paddle.
■Permanent manual operation
In selector lever position M, operat-
ing a shift paddle causes the sys-
tem to switch permanently to
manual operation (mode).Change up: pull right shift paddle
briefly.
Change down: pull left shift pad-
dle briefly.
Pull and hold left shift paddle to
shift to the lowest possible gear.
The gear selected appears briefly
on the instrument cluster, followed
by the gear currently in use.

Before the transmission lockout is
released, apply the parking brake
to prevent the vehicle from rolling
away.
1Apply the brakes and keep them
applied.

starter must be heard to start
turning. Press and hold the
start/stop button.
3With your free hand, press the
button on the selector lever,
arrow 1, push the selector lever
to selector lever position N and
hold it there, arrow N, until
selector lever position N is dis-
played in the instrument cluster.
A vehicle message is shown.

More information can be found in the Tow-starting and towing chap-
ter, see page 345.
When the ambient conditions are
dry, Launch Control permits opti-
mised acceleration on a road sur-
face that offers plenty of grip.
Use of Launch Control causes pre-
mature component wear, as the
function subjects the vehicle to very
high stresses and loads.
Do not use Launch Control when
running in, see page 266.
When starting with Launch Control,
do not turn the steering wheel.
Launch Control is available when
the engine is at operating tempera-
ture. The engine is at operating
temperature after an uninterrupted
journey of at least 10 km, approx. 6
miles.
1Switch on drive-ready state.

onds.
Once Launch Control has been
used, the transmission requires
approximately 5 minutes to cool
down before Launch Control can be
used again. Launch Control adapts
to the ambient conditions when
used again.
To support driving stability, re-acti-
vate Vehicle Stability Control, VSC
as soon as possible.
An experienced driver may be able
to achieve better acceleration val-
ues in VSC OFF mode.The sport mode switch influences
the driving dynamics characteristics
of the vehicle.
The following systems are influ-
enced, for example:
Engine characteristics.
Automatic transmission.
Adaptive variable suspension.
Steering.
Display in the instrument cluster.
Cruise Control.

This chapter describes all standard,
country-specific and special equip-
ment available for the model series.
It may therefore describe equip-
ment and functions which are not
installed in your vehicle, for exam-
ple on account of the optional
equipment selected or the country
specification. This also applies to
safety-relevant functions and sys-
tems. Please comply with the rele-
vant laws and regulations when
using the corresponding functions
and systems.
The instrument cluster is a variable
display. When the sport mode
switch is used to change the driving
mode, the instrument cluster dis-
plays change to match the driving
mode.
Changes to the displays in the
instrument cluster can be deacti-
vated via Toyota Supra Command.
The displays in the instrument clus-
ter can sometimes differ from the

there are a number of malfunctions
simultaneously, the messages are
displayed in succession.
The messages can be hidden for
approximately 8 seconds. They are
then displayed again automatically.
Some vehicle messages are auto-
matically hidden after approxi-
mately 20 seconds. The vehicle

The system recommends the most
efficient gear for the current driving
situation.
Depending on the design and the
country specifications, the shift
point indicator is active in manual
mode of the automatic transmis-
sion.
Information on up or down shifting
are displayed in the instrument
cluster.
Speed Limit Info shows the cur-
rently applicable speed limit in the instrument cluster and the Head-Up
Display, as well as additional signs
where applicable, for example in
wet conditions.
The camera in the area of the inte-
rior rear-view mirror detects traffic
signs at the edge of the road as
well as variable overhead signs.
Road signs with additional instruc-
tions, for example restrictions appli-
cable in wet weather, are taken into
account and correlated with infor-
mation in the vehicle, such as the
windscreen wiper signal. The road
sign and corresponding additional
signs are then displayed in the
instrument cluster and the Head-Up
Display, if applicable, or ignored,
depending on the situation. Some
additional signs are taken into
account in the evaluation of the
speed limit, but are not displayed in
the instrument cluster.
The system considers the informa-
tion saved in the navigation system
as applicable and also displays the
speed limits present on unmarked
sections of road.

ing restriction but which are not
signposted to this effect.
Depending on the equipment ver-
sion, an additional symbol with dis-
tance information may also be
displayed to indicate the end of the
overtaking restriction display.The camera is located on the front
side of the rear-view mirror.
Keep the windscreen clean and
clear in the area in front of the
