mendation to take a break can-
not be displayed until after
approximately 45 minutes.
The function may be limited in
the following situations, for
instance and will either output
an incorrect warning or no warn-
ing at all:
 When the clock is set incor-
rectly.
 When the vehicle speed is
mainly below about 43
mph/70 km/h.
 With a sporty driving style,
such as during rapid accelera-
tion or when cornering fast.
 In active driving situations,
such as when changing lanes
frequently.
 When the road surface is
poor.
 In the event of strong side
winds.
The system is reset approx. 45
minutes after parking the vehi-
cle, for instance in the case of a
break during longer trips on
highways. This chapter describes all stan-
dard, country-specific and
optional features offered with
the series. It also describes fea-
tures and functions that are not
necessarily available in your
vehicle, e.g., due to the selected
options or country versions. This
also applies to safety-related
functions and systems. When
using these functions and sys-
tems, the applicable laws and
regulations must be observed.
ABS prevents locking of the
wheels during braking.
The vehicle maintains its steer-
ing power even during full brake
applications, thus increasing
active safety.
ABS is operational
every time
you start the engine.
Situations which the ABS can-
not operate sufficiently:
 When entering a curve at an
excessively high rate of speed

Supra Owner's ManualIn this case, even if the ABS oper-
ates, it cannot oper
ate sufficiently
to avoid a possible dangerous situ-
ation. The driver is solely responsi-
ble for understanding their
surroundings and driving at a safe
speed.
When you apply the brakes rap-
idly, the system automatically
produces the greatest possible
braking force boost. It reduces
the braking distance to a mini-
mum during emergency stop.
This system utilizes all of the
capabilities provided by the Anti-
lock Brake System ABS.
Do not reduce the pressure on
the brake pedal for the duration
of the emergency stop.
In combination with Dynamic
radar cruise control, this system
ensures that the brakes respond
even more rapidly when braking
in critical situations. This system supports driving off
on uphill grades.
1
Hold the vehicle in place with
the foot brake.
2 Release the foot brake and
drive off without delay.
After the foot brake is released,
the vehicle is held in place for
approx. 2 seconds.
Depending on the vehicle load-
ing, the vehicle may roll back
slightly.
Within the physical limits, the
system helps to keep the vehicle
on a steady course by reducing
engine speed and by braking
the individual wheels.
VSC detects the following unsta-
ble driving conditions, for
instance:
 Fishtailing, which can lead to
oversteering.

DRIVING TIPS
other vehicles, etc. Increase
the distance between your
vehicle and preceding vehi-
cles and drive safely at a
lower speed than normal,
avoiding sudden accelera-
tion, braking or steering oper-
ations.
 Use the rear defroster and air
conditioning system to pre-
vent the windows from fog-
ging 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 tires and road sur-
face.
This phenomenon is referred to
as hydroplaning. It is character-
ized by a partial or complete
loss of contact between the tires
and the road surface, ultimately
undermining your ability to steer
and brake the vehicle.
When driving through water, fol-
low the following:
 Drive through calm water
only.
 Drive through water only if it is not deeper than maximum 9.8
inches/25 cm.
 Drive through water no faster
than walking speed, up to 3
mph/5 km/h.
The vehicle is equipped with the
Antilock Brake System ABS as a
standard feature.
Perform an emergency stop in
situations that require such.
Steering is still responsive. You
can still avoid any obstacles with
a minimum of steering effort.
Pulsation of the brake pedal and
sounds from the hydraulic cir-
cuits indicate that the Antilock
Brake System ABS is in its
active mode.
In certain braking situations, the
perforated brake discs can emit
functional noises. However,

Safety information
NOTICE
When driving too quickly through
too deep water, water can enter
into the engine compartment, the
electrical system or the transmis-
sion. There is a risk of damage to
property. When driving through
water, do not exc eed the maxi-
mum indicated water level and the
maximum speed for driving
through water.
