In the following cases, the preset speed
automatically cancels out:
a. When vehicle speed falls below about
40 km/h (25 mph).
b. When vehicle stability control is acti-
vated.
If cancelled by a. or b., the “READY”
indicator comes on and the dynamic laser
cruise control enters the ready mode.
If one of the warning codes “C1”, “C2” or
“E3” appears on the display, the preset
speed automatically cancels out. See
“VEHICLE−TO−VEHICLE DISTANCE
CONTROL MODE FAILURE WARNING” on
page 190.
If the preset speed automatically cancels
out for other than the above reasons, do
not operate the dynamic laser cruise con-
trol. Although there is no problem to con-
tinue driving, please contact your Toyota
dealer.
RESETTING TO A FASTER SPEED
Push the lever up in the “+ RES” direction
and hold it. The displayed speed will in-
crease in increments of 5 mph. Release
the lever when the desired speed is attai-
ned. The vehicle speed will gradually in-
crease to the display speed.
CAUTION
When the vehicle−to−vehicle distance
control is on, your cruising speed is
regulated in proportion to the speed
of the vehicle ahead, so increasing
the preset speed using the control
lever does not accelerate the vehicle.
However, if the vehicle ahead leaves
the lane, your cruising speed will in-
crease to the preset speed because
the preset speed has been set higher
using the control lever. Confirm the
setting on the display.
RESETTING TO A SLOWER SPEED
Push the lever down in the “− SET” direc-
tion and hold it. The displayed speed will
decrease in increments of 5 mph. Release
the lever when the desired speed is attai-
ned. The vehicle speed will gradually de-
crease to the display speed.
However, a faster way to reset is to de-
press the brake pedal and then push the
lever down in the “− SET” direction.
If the control lever is released when the
vehicle speed exceeds the upper limit of
the preset speed traveling downhill while
you are pushing the lever down, the sys-
tem will memorize the upper limit of the
preset speed as a preset speed.
Even if you downshift the transmission
from “D” position or “5” (fifth range) to “4”
(fourth range) in “S” mode in the vehicle−
to−vehicle distance control mode, engine
braking will not be enabled because this
mode is not cancelled. To decrease the
vehicle speed, reset to a slower speed
with the cruise control lever or depress
the brake pedal. If you use the brake
pedal, cruise control is cancelled.
