Toyota Supra (2023 year). Manual in english

1-1. NOTES

Advanced technology, e.g. the
use of modern materials and
high-performance electronics,
requires suitable maintenance
and repair work.
If work is performed improperly,
for instance maintenance and
repair, there is a risk of subse-
quent damage and related
safety risks.
Improperly performed work on
the vehicle paint can lead to a
failure or malfunction of compo-
nents, e.g., the radar sensors,
and thereby result in a safety
risk.

Toyota recommends the use of
parts and accessory products
approved by Toyota.
Approved parts and accesso-
ries, and advice on their use and
installation are available from
Toyota.
Toyota parts and accessories
have been tested by Toyota for
their safety and suitability in Toy-
ota vehicles.
Toyota warrants genuine Toyota
parts and accessories.
Toyota does not evaluate
whether each Customize prod-
uct from another manufacturer
can be used with Toyota vehi-

cles without presenting a safety
hazard, even if a country-spe-
cific official approval was issued.
Toyota does not evaluate
whether these products are suit-
able for Toyota vehicles under
all usage conditions.

California law requires vehicle
manufacturers provide the fol-
lowing warning:

assistance during driving, for
instance driver assistance sys-
tems. Furthermore, control units
facilitate comfort or infotainment
functions.
Information about stored or
exchanged data can be
requested from the manufac-
turer of the vehicle, in a sepa-
rate booklet, for example.

Each vehicle is marked with a
unique vehicle identification
number. Depending on the
country, the vehicle owner can
be identified with the vehicle
identification number, license
plate and corresponding authori-
ties. In addition, there are other
options to track data collected in
the vehicle to the driver or vehi-
cle owner, e.g. via the Toyota
Supra Connect account that is
used.

Control units process data to
operate the vehicle.
For example, this includes:
• Status messages for the vehi-

cle and its Customize compo-
nents, e.g., wheel rotational
speed, wheel speed, deceler-
ation, transverse acceleration,
engaged safety belt indicator.

• Ambient conditions, e.g., tem-

perature, rain sensor signals.

The processed data is only pro-
cessed in the vehicle itself and
generally volatile. The data is
not stored beyond the operating
period.
Electronic components, e.g.
control units and ignition keys,
contain components for storing
technical information. Informa-
tion about the vehicle condition,
component usage, mainte-
nance requirements or faults
can be stored temporarily or
permanently.
This information generally
records the state of a compo-
nent, a module, a system, or the
environment, for instance:
• Operating states of system

components, e.g., fill levels,
tire inflation pressure, battery
status.

• Malfunctions and faults in

important system compo-
nents, for instance lights and
brakes.

• Responses by the vehicle to

special situations such as air-
bag deployment or engage-
ment of the driving stability
control systems.

• Information on vehicle-dam-

aging events.

The data is required to perform
the control unit functions. Fur-
thermore, it also serves to rec-
ognize and correct malfunctions,
and helps the vehicle manufac-

turer to optimize vehicle func-
tions.
The majority of this data is vola-
tile and is only processed within
the vehicle itself. Only a small
share of data is stored in event
or fault memories based on an
event.
When servicing, for instance
during repairs, service pro-
cesses, warranty cases, and
quality assurance measures,
this technical information can be
read out from the vehicle
together with the vehicle identifi-
cation number.
Your Toyota dealer can read out
the information. The socket for
OBD Onboard Diagnosis
required by law in the vehicle is
used to read out the data.
The data is collected, pro-
cessed, and used by the rele-
vant organizations in the service
network. The data documents
technical conditions of the vehi-
cle, helps with the identification
of the fault, compliance with
warranty obligations and quality
improvement.
The data from the vehicle can
also be used to check customer
claims for warranty and guar-
anty.
Fault and event memories in the
vehicle can be reset when your
Toyota dealer performs repair or
servicing work.

Depending on the vehicle equip-
ment, comfort and Customize
settings can be stored in the
vehicle and modified or reset at
any time.
For example, this includes:
• Setting for the seat position.
• Suspension and climate con-

trol settings.

If necessary, data can be trans-
ferred to the entertainment and
communication system of the
vehicle, e.g. via smartphone.
This includes the following
depending on the respective
equipment:
• Multimedia data such as

music, films or photos for
playback in an integrated mul-
timedia system.

• Address book data for use in

conjunction with an integrated
hands-free system or an inte-
grated navigation system.

• Entered navigation destina-

tions.

• Data on the use of Internet

services.

This data can be stored locally
in the vehicle or is found on a
device that has been connected
to the vehicle, e.g., a smart-
phone, USB stick or MP3 player.
If this data is stored in the vehi-

time.
This data is only transmitted to
third parties upon personal
request as part of the use of
online services. The transmis-
sion depends on the selected
settings for the use of the ser-
vices.

Depending on the vehicle equip-
ment, mobile devices connected
to the vehicle, for instance
smartphones, can be controlled
via the vehicle control elements.
The sound and picture from the
mobile device can be played
back and displayed through the
multimedia system. Certain
information is transferred to the
mobile device at the same time.
Depending on the type of incor-
poration, this includes, for
instance position data and other
general vehicle information. This
optimizes the way in which
selected apps, for instance navi-
gation or music playback, work.
There is no further interaction
between the mobile device and
the vehicle, such as active
access to vehicle data.
How the data will be processed
further is determined by the pro-
vider of the particular app being
used. The extent of the possible

settings depends on the respec-
tive app and the operating sys-
tem of the mobile device.

If the vehicle has a wireless net-
work connection, this enables
data to be exchanged between
the vehicle and other systems.
The wireless network connec-
tion is realized via an in-vehicle
transmitter and receiver unit or
via personal mobile devices
brought into the vehicle, for
instance smartphones. This
wireless network connection
enables 'online functions' to be
used. These include online ser-
vices and apps supplied by the
vehicle manufacturer or by other
providers.

Where online services from the
vehicle manufacturer are con-
cerned, the corresponding func-
tions are described in the
appropriate place, for instance
the Owner's Manual or manu-
facturer's website. The relevant
legal information pertaining to
data protection is provided there
too. Personal data may be used
to perform online services. Data
is exchanged over a secure con-

Any collection, processing, and
use of personal data above and
beyond that needed to provide
the services must always be
based on a legal permission,
contractual arrangement or con-
sent. It is also possible to acti-
vate or deactivate the data
connection as a whole. That is,
with the exception of functions
and services required by law
such as Assist systems.

When using online services
from other providers, these ser-
vices are the responsibility of
the relevant provider and sub-

personal data is collected and
used in relation to services from
third parties, the scope of such
data, and its purpose, can be
obtained from the relevant ser-
vice provider.

This vehicle is equipped with an
event data recorder EDR. The

main purpose of an EDR is to
record, in certain crash or near
crash-like situations, such as an
air bag deployment or hitting a
road obstacle, data that will
assist in understanding how a
vehicle’s systems performed.
The EDR is designed to record
data related to vehicle dynamics
and safety systems for a short
period of time, typically 30 sec-
onds or less.
The EDR in this vehicle is
designed to record such data
as:
• How various systems in your

vehicle were operating.

• Whether or not the driver and

passenger safety belts were
fastened.

• How far, if at all, the driver

was depressing the accelera-
tor and/or brake pedal.

• How fast the vehicle was trav-

eling.

This data can help provide a
better understanding of the cir-
cumstances in which crashes
and injuries occur.
EDR data is recorded by your
vehicle only if a nontrivial crash
situation occurs; no data is
recorded by the EDR under nor-
mal driving conditions and no
personal data, for instance
name, gender, age, and crash
location, are recorded.
However, other parties, such as
law enforcement, could combine

the EDR data with the type of
personally identifying data rou-
tinely acquired during a crash
investigation.
To read data recorded by an
EDR, special equipment is
required, and access to the
vehicle or the EDR is needed. In
addition to the vehicle manufac-
turer, other parties, such as law
enforcement, that have the spe-
cial equipment, can read the
information if they have access
to the vehicle or the EDR.

Depending on the national-mar-
ket version, the vehicle identifi-
cation number is located in
different positions in the vehicle.
This chapter describes all posi-
tions that are possible for the
