speed of the vehicle is below
approx. 53 mph/85 km/h.
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
functional or may not be avail-
able in the following situations:
 In heavy fog, wet conditions,
or snowfall.
 In tight curves.
 If the driving stability control
systems are deactivated, for
instance VSC OFF.
 If the field of view of the cam-
era or the windshield is dirty
or covered in the area of the
interior mirror.
 If the camera has overheated and been temporarily
switched off due to exces-
sively high temperatures.
 Depending on the equipment:
if the radar sensors are dirty
or covered.
 Up to 10 seconds after the
start of the engine via the
Start/Stop button.
 During calibration of the cam-
era immediately after vehicle
delivery.
 If there are constant blinding
effects because of oncoming
light, for instance from the sun
low in the sky.
 When it is dark outside.
The lane departure warning
alerts when the vehicle is about
to run off the road or exit the
lane.
This camera-based system
warns starting at a minimum
speed.
The minimum speed is coun-
try-specific and is displayed in
the menu for the Toyota Supra
Safety systems.
Warnings are issued by means
of a steering wheel vibration.

The dimmed light in the exterior
mirror indicates when there are
vehicles in the blind spot or
approaching from behind.
If the turn signal is switched on
while a vehicle is in the critical
zone, the steering wheel
vibrates briefly and the light in
the exterior mirror flashes
brightly.
The warning stops when the
other vehicle has left the critical
area or after deactivation of the
turn signal.
A flashing of the light during vehicle unlocking serves as sys-
tem self-test.
If the vehicle speed exceeds
approx. 155 mph/250 km/h, the
system is deactivated temporar-

If the vehicle speed falls below
approx. 155 mph/250 km/h, the
system once again responds
according to the setting.
The system may not be fully
functional in the following situa-


When a vehicle is approach-

than your own.
 In heavy fog, wet conditions,

Traction mode is a version of the
VSC Vehicle Stability Control
System where forward momen-
tum is optimized. The system ensures maximum
headway on special road condi-
tions or loose road surfaces, for
instance unplowed snowy
roads, but with somewhat lim-
ited driving stability.
When Traction mode is acti-
vated, the vehicle has maximum
traction. Driving stability is lim-
ited during acceleration and
when driving in curves.
You may find it useful to briefly
activate Traction mode in the
following situations:

When driving in slush or on
uncleared, snow-covered
roads.
 When driving off from deep
snow or loose ground.
 When driving with snow
chains.

■General information
When approaching an object, an
intermittent sound indicates the
position of the object. E.g., if an
object is detected to the left rear
of the vehicle, a signal tone
sounds from the left rear
speaker.
The shorter the distance to the
object, the shorter the intervals.
If the distance to a detected
object is less than approx. 10
inches/25 cm, a continuous tone
is sounded.
If there are objects in front of
and behind the vehicle at the
same time, with a distance
smaller than approx. 10 in/25
cm, an alternating constant tone
will sound.
The intermittent tone and con-
stant tone are switched off if the
