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.

Depending on the equipment,
the following cameras and sen-
sors are installed in the vehicle:
• Cameras behind the wind-

shield.

• Rearview camera.
• Front radar sensor.
• Radar sensors, side, rear.
• Ultrasound sensors in the

bumpers.

Keep the vehicle cameras and
sensors, as well as surrounding
areas, clean and unobstructed.

The cameras are located in the
area of the interior mirror.

The camera is located in the
handle of the trunk lid.

The cameras may not be fully
functional and may provide
incorrect information in the fol-
lowing situations:
• In heavy fog, wet conditions,

or snow fall.

• On steep hills, in steep

• When the camera lens is dirty

or damaged.

• When driving toward bright

lights or strong reflections,
e.g., because of a setting sun.

• When it is dark outside.
• Camera behind the wind-

shield: if the camera has over-
heated and been temporarily
switched off due to exces-
sively high temperatures.

• Camera behind the wind-

shield: during calibration of
the camera immediately after
vehicle delivery.

If applicable, a Check Control
message is displayed if the sys-
tem fails.

The radar sensor is located in
the front bumper.

Safety information

WARNING

The vehicle radar sensors and

thus also the driver assistance

systems can be impaired by

external influences, e.g., interfer-

ence. There is a risk of accident.

Watch the surrounding traffic situ-

ation closely, be ready to take

over steering and braking at any

time, and actively intervene where

appropriate.

• If the sensor is not aligned

correctly, for instance due to
parking damage.

• If the radiation range of the

sensors is covered, e.g., by
protruding cargo.

• If the field of view of the sen-

sors is covered, e.g., by
garage walls, hedges or snow
hills.

• After improperly performed

work on the vehicle paint in
the area of the sensors.

• On steep hilltops or in sharp

dips in the road.

If applicable, a Check Control
message is displayed if the sys-
tem fails.

: if equipped

The detection of objects with
ultrasound measurements can
run into physical limits, e.g., in
the following situations:
• In case of dirty sensors.
• In case of covered sensors,

such as due to labels.

• If the sensor is not aligned

correctly, for instance due to
parking damage.

• After improperly performed

work on the vehicle paint in
the area of the sensors.

• For small children and ani-

mals.

• For persons with certain cloth-

ing, for instance coats.

• In case of external interfer-

ence of the ultrasound, for
instance from passing vehi-
cles, loud machines or other
ultrasonic sources.

• Under certain weather condi-

tions, e.g., high relative
humidity, wet conditions,
snowfall, cold, extreme heat,
or strong wind.

• With tow bars and trailer cou-

plings of other vehicles.

• With thin or wedge-shaped

objects.

• With moving objects.
• With elevated, protruding

objects such as ledges.

• With objects with corners,

edges, and smooth surfaces.

• With objects with a fine sur-

face structure such as fences.

faces.

• With small and low objects,

for instance boxes.

• With soft obstacles or obsta-

cles covered in foam material.

• Due to heavy exhaust.
• Cargo that extends beyond

the perimeter of the vehicle is
not taken into account by the

If applicable, a Check Control
message is displayed if the sys-
tem fails.

Depending on the situation, the
vehicle is in one of the three
states:
• Idle state.
• Standby state.
• Drive-ready state.

If the vehicle is in idle state, it is
switched off.

after exiting and locking.

For instance, the idle state is
automatically established under
the following conditions:
• After several minutes, if no

operation takes place on the
vehicle.

• If the charge state of the vehi-

cle battery is low.

• Depending on the setting via

Toyota Supra Command:
when one or both front doors
are opened after driving when
exiting the vehicle.

In some situations, the idle state
is not set automatically, for
instance during a phone call or
when the low beams are
switched on.

After a trip, the sleep mode can
be established by opening the
front doors. For this purpose,
the driver and front passenger
must exit the vehicle.
Via Toyota Supra Command:

"Turn off after door opening"

To establish idle state in the
vehicle after end of trip:

When standby state is switched
on, most functions can be used
while the vehicle is stationary.
Desired settings can be
adjusted.

The vehicle is in the standby
state after the front doors are
opened from the outside.

Safety information

WARNING

If the exhaust pipe is blocked or

ventilation is insufficient, harmful

exhaust gases can enter into the

vehicle. The exhaust gases con-

tain pollutants which are colorless

and odorless. In enclosed areas,

exhaust gases can also accumu-

late outside of the vehicle. There

is danger to life. Keep the exhaust

pipe free and ensure sufficient

ventilation.

WARNING

An unsecured vehicle can begin

to move and possibly roll away.

There is a risk of an accident.

Before exiting, secure the vehicle

against rolling.

In order to ensure that the vehicle

is secured against rolling away,

follow the following:

• Set the parking brake.

• On uphill grades or on a down-

hill slope, turn the front wheels

in the direction of the curb.

• On uphill grades or on a down-

hill slope, also secure the vehi-

cle, for instance with a wheel

chock.

NOTICE

In the case of repeated starting

attempts or repeated starting in

quick succession, the fuel is not

burned or is inadequately burned.

The catalytic converter can over-

heat. There is a risk of damage to

property. Avoid repeated starting

in quick succession.
