Pressing the cancel switch can-
cels the speed control.

The speed control is also canceled
when the brake pedal is
depressed.
(When the vehicle has been
stopped by system control,
depressing the brake pedal does
not cancel the setting.)

Pressing the “+ RES” switch resumes the cruise control and returns
vehicle speed to the set speed.

However, when a vehicle ahead is not detected, cruise control does not
resume when the vehicle speed is approximately 25 mph (40 km/h) or less.

Dynamic radar cruise control with full-speed range can be set when

●

The shift lever is in D or range 4 or higher of S has been selected. 

●

Range 4 or higher of D has been selected by using the paddle shift switch. 
(vehicles with paddle shift switches)

●

Vehicle speed is at or above approximately 30 mph (50 km/h). However,
when a preceding vehicle is detected, the dynamic radar cruise control with
full-speed range can be set even if the vehicle speed is at or below approxi-
mately 30 mph (50 km/h).

■

Accelerating after setting the vehicle speed
The vehicle can accelerate by operating the accelerator pedal. After acceler-
ating, the set speed resumes. However, during vehicle-to-vehicle distance
control mode, the vehicle speed may decrease below the set speed in order
to maintain the distance to the preceding vehicle.

■

When the vehicle stops while follow-up cruising

●

Pressing the “+ RES” switch while the vehicle ahead stops will resume fol-
low-up cruising if the vehicle ahead starts off within approximately 3 sec-
onds after the switch is pressed.

●

If the vehicle ahead starts off within 3 seconds after your vehicle stops, fol-
low-up cruising will be resumed.

■

Automatic cancelation of vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode
Vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode is automatically canceled in the fol-
lowing situations.

●

Actual vehicle speed falls at or below approximately 25 mph (40 km/h) when
there are no vehicles ahead.

●

The preceding vehicle leaves the lane when your vehicle is following at a
vehicle speed at or below approximately 25 mph (40 km/h). Otherwise, the
sensor can not properly detect the vehicle. (“Radar Cruise Control Unavail-
able” is displayed on the multi-information display)

●

VSC is activated.

●

TRAC is activated for a period of time.

●

When the VSC or TRAC system is turned off.

●

The sensor cannot detect correctly because it is covered in some way.

●

Pre-collision braking is activated.

●

The parking brake is operated.

●

The vehicle is stopped by system control on a steep incline.

●

The following are detected when the vehicle has been stopped by system
control:
• The driver is not wearing a seat belt.
• The driver’s door is opened.
• The vehicle has been stopped for about 3 minutes

If vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode is automatically canceled for any
other reason, there may be a malfunction in the system. Contact your Toyota
