The more sensitive the warning
settings are, for example the
warning time, the more warn-
ings are displayed. Therefore,
there may also be an excess of
premature or unjustified warn-
ings and reactions.
The system can help prevent accidents involving pedestrians
and cyclists. If an accident can-
not be prevented, the system
will help reduce the impact
speed.
The system sounds a warning in
the city speed range before an
imminent collision and activates
brakes independently, if needed.
The system issues a warning of
a possible risk of collision with
pedestrians and cyclists at
speeds above approx. 3 mph/5
km/h.
The system reacts to pedestri-
ans and cyclists who are within
the detection range of the sys-
tem.
Depending on the equipment
version, the system is controlled
by the following sensors:

Camera in the area of the
interior mirror.

The system's detection potential
is limited.
Thus, a warning might not be
issued or be issued late.
The following situations may not
be detected, for instance:
 Partially covered pedestrians.
 Pedestrians that are not
detected as such because of
the viewing angle or contour.
 Pedestrians outside of the
detection range.
 Pedestrians having a body
size less than 32 in/80 cm.
The system may not be fully

 In heavy fog, wet conditions,
or snowfall.
 In tight curves.

time drive-ready state is
switched on.
After travel has begun, the sys-
tem monitors certain aspects of
the driver's behavior, so that
decreasing alertness or fatigue
can be detected.
This procedure takes the follow-
ing criteria into account:
 Personal driving style, for
instance steering behavior.
 Driving conditions, for
instance length of trip.
Starting at approx. 43 mph/70
km/h, the system is active and
can also display a recommenda-
tion to take a break.
The Driver attention control is active automatically with each
switching on of drive-ready state
and can thus display a break
recommendation.
The break recommendation can
also be switched on or off and
adjusted via Toyota Supra Com-
mand.
Via Toyota Supra Command:

"My Vehicle"
2 "Vehicle settings"

4 Select desired setting:
 "Standard": the break recom-
mendation is made with a
defined value.
 "Sensitive": the break recom-
mendation is issued earlier.
 "Off": no break recommenda-
tion is made.
If the driver becomes less alert
or fatigued, a message is dis-
played in the Control Display
with the recommendation to
take a break.
During the display, the following
settings can be selected:

The flow of fuel is interrupted
while coasting.
Switch off the engine during lon-
ger stops, for instance at traffic
lights, railroad crossings or in
traffic congestion.
The Auto Start/Stop function of
the vehicle automatically
switches off the engine during a
stop.
If the engine is switched off and
then restarted rather than leav-
ing the engine running con-
stantly, fuel consumption and
emissions are reduced. Sav-
ings can begin within a few sec-
onds of switching off the engine.
In addition, fuel consumption is
also determined by other fac-
tors, such as driving style, road
conditions, maintenance or envi-
ronmental factors.
Functions such as seat heating
and the rear window defroster require a lot of energy and
increase fuel consumption,
especially in city and
stop-and-go traffic.
Switch off these functions if they
are not needed.
Have the vehicle maintained
regularly to achieve optimal
vehicle efficiency and service
life. Toyota recommends that
maintenance work be performed
by Toyota.

nance System, refer to page
