WARNING
The system does not relieve you of
your personal responsibility to assess
the traffic situation correctly. Due to
system limitations, it cannot respond
independently and appropriately in all
traffic conditions. There is a danger of
accidents. Adapt your driving style to
the traffic conditions. Observe the
traffic situation and intervene actively
if the situation warrants it.
WARNING
An unsecured vehicle can start mov-
ing and rolling away. There is a dan-
ger of accidents. Before leaving the
vehicle, secure it to prevent it from
rolling away.
Observe the following to ensure that
the vehicle is secured against rolling
away:
●Apply the parking brake.
●Turn the front wheels towards the
kerb on upward or downward gradi-
ents.
●Additionally secure the vehicle on
upward or downward gradients, for
example with a chock.
WARNING
The desired speed may be acciden-
tally set incorrectly or called up by
mistake. There is a danger of acci-
dents. Adjust the desired speed to the
traffic conditions. Observe the traffic
situation and intervene actively if the
situation warrants it.
WARNING
There is a danger of accidents if the
difference in speed relative to other
vehicles is excessively high. This may
occur, for example, in the following
situations:
●When quickly approaching a slowly
moving vehicle.
●If another vehicle suddenly veers
into the vehicle's own lane.
●When quickly approaching station-
ary vehicles.
There is a danger of injury or even
death. Observe the traffic situation
and intervene actively if the situation
warrants it.

Supra Owner's Manual4-1. DRIVING HINTS
This situation, known as aquaplan-
ing, means that the tyre can actu-
ally lose contact completely with
the road surface and the vehicle
can neither be steered, nor the
brakes properly applied.
Please comply with the following
when driving through water:
Only drive through still water.
Only drive through water up to a
max. depth of 25 cm, 9.8 in.
Drive through water at a walking
speed of no more than 5 km/h, 3
mph.
The vehicle is equipped with the
Anti-lock Brake System ABS as
standard.
Perform full braking in situations that require it.
The vehicle remains steerable. Any
obstacles can be avoided by per-
forming steering movements as
smoothly as possible.
A pulsing of the brake pedal and
hydraulic regulating sounds indi-
cate that the Anti-lock Brake Sys-
tem ABS is regulating.
In certain braking situations, the
perforated brake discs can cause
functional noise. However, func-
tional noises have no effect on the
efficiency and operational safety of
the brakes.
In damp weather, on gritted roads
and in heavy rain, apply the brakes
lightly every few kilometres/miles. Driving through water
General
Safety note
NOTICE
Driving through excessively deep
water too fast can result in water
entering the engine compartment,
electrical system or transmission.
There is a danger of damage to prop-
erty. When driving through water, do
not exceed the maximum water depth
and speed specified above.

Objects in the driver's footwell can
restrict the pedal travel or block a
pedal that has been pressed. There is
a danger of accidents. Stow items in
the vehicle so that they are secure
and cannot get into the driver's
footwell. Only use floor mats that are
suitable for the vehicle and can be
securely fastened to the floor. Do not
use loose floor mats, and do not place
several floor mats on top of one
another. Make sure that there is suffi-
cient space for the pedals. Ensure
