vehicle is to be operated in a dif-

ferent country it might be neces-

sary to adapt your vehicle to

potentially differing operating

conditions and registration

Status of the Owner's

Manual

Basic information

The manufacturer of your vehi-

cle pursues a policy of constant

development that is conceived

to ensure that our vehicles con-

tinue to embody the highest

quality and safety standards. In

rare cases, therefore, the fea-

tures described in this Owner's

Manual may differ from those in

your vehicle.

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.

Maintenance and repairs

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.

California Proposition 65

Warning

California law requires vehicle

manufacturers provide the fol-

lowing warning:

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.

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.

Information about stored or

exchanged data can be

requested from the manufac-

turer of the vehicle, in a sepa-

rate booklet, for example.

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.

Personal reference

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.

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.

tions.

Data entry and data trans-

fer into the vehicle

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.

General information

Depending on the vehicle equip-

ment, comfort and Customize

settings can be stored in the

vehicle and modified or reset at

any time.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

• 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.

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.

Services

General information

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.

Incorporation of mobile

devices

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.

Services from the vehicle

manufacturer

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-

There is no further interaction

between the mobile device and

the vehicle, such as active

access to vehicle data.

systems of the vehicle manufac-

turer intended for this purpose.

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.

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.

1

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.

Services from other provid-

ers

When using online services

from other providers, these ser-

vices are the responsibility of

the relevant provider and sub-

ject to their data privacy condi-

tions and terms of use. The

vehicle manufacturer has no

influence on the content

exchanged during this process.

Information on the way in which

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 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.

Windshield

1

If an accessory is installed to the

windshield or the rear view mirror,

it may block your vision of the

road or become a distraction, pos-

sibly leading to an accident. Also,

if an object such as a suction cup

is attached to the windshield, it

may act as a lens and possibly

cause a fire. Do not install a wide

view mirror to the rear view mirror

as it may come loose in a collision

and cause injury.

The vehicle identification num-

ber can also be found behind

the windshield.

Other Precautions

WARNING

■When the vehicle is parked

●Do not leave glasses, cigarette

lighters, spray cans, or soft

drink cans in the vehicle when it

is in the sun. Doing so may

result in the following:

• Gas may leak from a cigarette

lighter or spray can, and may

lead to a fire.

Do not modify the vehicle with any

parts (ex. batteries, electrical

components, etc.) other than Toy-

ota genuine parts and accesso-

ries or Toyota approved parts, as

doing so may cause an unex-

pected malfunction or an acci-

dent. For information on Toyota

genuine parts and accessories,

contact a Toyota dealer.

• The temperature inside the

vehicle may cause the plastic

lenses and plastic material of

glasses to deform or crack.

• Soft drink cans may fracture,

causing the contents to spray

over the interior of the vehicle,

and may also cause a short cir-

cuit in the vehicle’s electrical

components.
