The warning signal and vehicle
message are an encouragement
to pay closer attention to the
lane.
For instance, the warning will be
canceled in the following situa-
tions:
Automatically after a few sec-
onds.
When returning to your own
lane.
When braking hard.
When using the turn signal.
If VSC Vehicle Stability Con-
trol System intervenes.
Additional information: • Cameras, refer to page 45.
The system may not be fully
functional in the following situa-
tions:
In the event of missing, worn,
poorly visible, merging,
diverging, or multiple lane
markings such as in construc-
tion areas.
When lane markings are cov-
ered in snow, ice, dirt or
water.
In tight curves or on narrow
lanes.
When lane markings are cov-
ered by objects.
When driving very close to the
vehicle in front of you.
Up to 10 seconds after the
start of the engine via the
Start/Stop button.
A vehicle message may be dis-
played when the system is not
fully functional.

the consequences thereof.
After coming to a halt, the brake
is released automatically.
It can be necessary to bring the
vehicle in certain situations to a
halt quicker.
To do this, for a short time the
braking pressure applied when
stepping on the brake pedal
must be higher than the braking
pressure achieved by the auto-
matic braking function. This
interrupts automatic braking.
It can be necessary to interrupt
automatic braking in certain situ-
ations, for instance for an eva-
sive maneuver.
Interrupt automatic braking:
By pressing the brake pedal.
By pressing the accelerator
pedal.
The system can detect decreas-
ing alertness or fatigue of the
driver during long, monotonous trips, for instance on highways.
In this situation, it is recom-
mended that the driver takes a
break.
The system is switched on each
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.

WARNING
The system cannot serve as a
substitute for the driver’s personal
judgment in assessing one's
physical state. An increasing lack
of alertness or fatigue may not be
detected or not be detected in
time. There is a risk of an acci-
dent. Make sure that the driver is
rested and alert. Adjust driving
style to traffic conditions.
Function
Page 198 of 372

1983-1. CONTROLS
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:
1"My Vehicle"
2 "Vehicle settings"
3 "Driver attention control"
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:
"Do not ask again"
"Places to stop"
"Remind me later"
The break recommendation is
repeated after 20 minutes.
After a break, another recom-
mendation to take a break can-
not be displayed until after
approximately 45 minutes.
The function may be limited in
the following situations and may
be output an incorrect warning
or no warning 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, which increases
the 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
In this case, even if the ABS oper-
ates, it cannot ope rate sufficiently
to avoid a possible dangerous situ-
ation. The driver is solely responsi-
ble for understanding their
surroundings and d riving 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.
1Hold 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.
Loss of traction of the front
wheels, which can lead to
understeering.

The system cannot serve as a

pendently react to all traffic situa-
tions. There is a risk of accident.

WARNING
When driving with a roof load, for
instance with roof-mounted lug-
gage rack, the vehicle's center of
gravity is higher, which increases
the risk of the vehicle tipping in
critical driving sit uations. There is
a risk of accidents or risk of dam-
age to property. Do not deactivate
VSC Vehicle Stability Control Sys-
tem when driving with roof load.
