is currently in use.
There is an additional guest pro-
file available that is not assigned
to any vehicle key. It can be
used to apply settings in the
vehicle without changing the
personal driver profiles.
For the system to be able to
identify the driver profile associ-
ated to a particular driver, the
detected remote control must be
clearly allocated to the driver.
This is the case when:
• The driver is only carrying his or her own remote control.
• The driver unlocks the vehi- cle.
• The driver gets into the vehi- cle through the driver's door.
After switching on the Control
Display, the name of the active
driver profile is displayed.
Select driver profile, refer to
page 64.
As soon as the engine is started
or any key is pressed, the last
selected display is shown on the
Control Display.
To exit the welcome screen via
Toyota Supra Command: "OK" The settings for the following
systems and functions are
stored in the active driver profile.
The scope of storable settings
depends on country and equip-
ment.
• Unlocking and locking.
•Lights.
• Climate control.
• Radio.
• Instrument cluster.
• Programmable memory but-
tons.
• Volumes, tone.
• Control Display.
•TV.
• Parking Sensors.
• Rearview camera.
• Head-up Display.
• Sport mode switch.
• Seat position, exterior mirror position.
Both the positions saved via the
seat memory and th e last position
set are saved.
• Toyota Supra Safety.
Regardless of the remote con-
trol in use, a different driver pro-
file may be activated. This
allows you to call up personal
vehicle settings, even if you did
not unlock the vehicle with your
own remote control.

during the break-in, refer to
page 258, period.
Do not steer the steering wheel
when driving off with Launch

Always avoid engine speeds in
the red warning field. In this
range, the fuel supply is reduced
to protect the engine.
Depending on the vehicle equip-
ment, the shift position indica-
tors on the tachometer indicate
the maximum shift point at
which the best possible acceler-
ation can be achieved.
When the selected driving mode
is sport mode, a shift light will be
displayed. 1
Select SPORT using the
sport mode switch.
2 Activate manual mode of the
transmission.
• Successive orange illumi- nated fields indicate the
upcoming shift moment.

reached, the entire display
flashes red and the supply of
fuel is interrupted in order to
protect the engine.

The chassis components are
optimized for the vehicle and its
scope of application and thereby
ensure the best possible Driving
Dynamics.
The Adaptive variable suspen-
sion is a controllable sport chas-
sis/suspension. This system
reduces undesirable vehicle
motion when using a dynamic
driving style or traveling on
uneven road surfaces. This enhances the driving
dynamics and driving comfort
depending on the road surface
condition and driving style.
The system offers different
shock absorber settings rang-
ing from comfortable travel to
dynamic driving.
The damping settings are
assigned to the different driving
modes of the Sport mode
switch, refer to page 135.
