severity of impact on the vehicle.


When the ignition switch is turned to the “ON” position, the indicator light will light for 1 second and then flash as follows. . When a door or rear gate was opened: 5 times . When the ignition switch was turned to the “ON” position: 3 times . When a strong impact or multiple impacts were sensed: twice (only vehicles with shock sensors (dealer option)) . When a light impact was sensed: once (only vehicles with shock sensors (dealer option)) NOTE Any of the above indicator light flash- ings will recur each time the ignition switch is turned to the “ON” position. Rearming the alarm system cancels the flashing.


& Shock sensors (dealer op-


tion)


The shock sensors trigger the alarm system when they sense impacts applied to the vehicle and when any of their electric wires are cut. The alarm system causes the horn to sound and the turn signal lights to flash for a short time when the sensed impact is weak, but it warns of a strong impact or multiple impacts by sounding the horn and flashing the turn signal lights, both lasting approximately 30
seconds. If you desire, your SUBARU dealer can connect them and set them for activation or deactivation. NOTE . The shock sensors are not always able to sense impacts caused by break- ing in, and cannot sense an impact that does not cause vibration (such as breaking the glass using a rescue hammer). . The shock sensors may sense vi- bration as indicated in the following examples and trigger the alarm system. Select the settings of the alarm system and shock sensors appropriately de- pending on where you usually park your vehicle.

Examples:

Moonroof (if equipped)


WARNING


Never let anyone’s hands, arms, head or any objects protrude from the moonroof. A person could be seriously injured if the vehicle stops suddenly or turns sharply or if the vehicle is involved in an accident. To avoid serious personal injury caused by entrapment, always con- form to the following instructions without exception. . Before closing the moonroof, make sure that no one’s hands, arms, head or other objects will be accidentally caught in the moonroof.


. Before leaving the vehicle, al- ways remove the key from the ignition switch for safety and never allow an unattended child to remain in the vehicle. Failure to follow this procedure could result in injury to a child operat- ing the moonroof.


. Never try to check the anti-en- trapment function by deliberately placing part of your body in the moonroof.


CAUTION


. Do not sit on the edge of the open


moonroof.


. Do not operate the moonroof if falling snow or extremely cold conditions have caused it to freeze shut.

“CLOSE” or “OPEN” side.


& Anti-entrapment function When the moonroof senses a substantial enough object trapped between its glass and the vehicle’s roof during closure, it automatically moves back by 6 in (15 cm) from that point and then stops. The anti- entrapment function may also be activated by a strong shock on the moonroof even when there is nothing trapped.


CAUTION


Never attempt to test this function using fingers, hands or other parts of your body.


NOTE . For the sake of safety, it is recom- mended that you avoid driving with the moonroof fully opened. . Driving with the moonroof fully open can cause an annoying sound to gen- erate at high speeds. If such a condi- tion has been encountered, use the moonroof at the initial stop position of 20 in (50 cm) away from the fully closed position.


Black plate (112,1)


. If the moonroof cannot be closed through switch operation because of system failure, it can be closed manu- ally using a hex-head wrench. For the procedure, refer to “Moonroof – if the moonroof cannot be closed” F9-19.

WARNING


. Never turn the ignition switch to “LOCK” while the vehicle is being driven or towed because that will lock the steering wheel, preventing steering control. And when the engine is turned off, it takes a much greater effort than usual to steer.


. Before leaving the vehicle, al- ways remove the key from the ignition switch for safety and never allow an unattended child to remain in the vehicle. Failure to follow this procedure could result in injury to a child or others. Children could operate the power windows, the moon- roof or other controls or even make the vehicle move.


CAUTION


Do not attach a large key holder or key case to either key. If it banged against your knees or hands while you are driving, it could turn the ignition switch from the “ON” posi-

If there is no passenger on the front passenger’s seat, the seatbelt warning device for the front passenger’s seat will be deactivated. The front passenger’s occupant detection system monitors whether or not there is a passenger on the front passenger’s seat.


Observe the following precautions. Failure to do so may prevent the device from functioning correctly or cause the device to fail. . Do not install any accessory such as a table or TV onto the seatback. . Do not store a heavy load in the seatback pocket. . Do not allow the rear seat occupant to place his/her hands or legs on the front passenger’s seatback, or allow him/her to


pull the seatback. . Do not use front seats with their back- ward-forward position and seatback not being locked into place securely. If any of them are not locked securely, adjust them again. For the adjustment procedure of the manual seats, refer to “Manual seat” F1-3.


If the seatbelt warning device for the front passenger’s seat does not function cor- rectly (e.g., it is activated even when the front passenger’s seat is empty or it is deactivated even when the front passen- ger has not fastened his/her seatbelt), take the following actions. . Ensure that no article is placed on the seat other than a child restraint system and its child occupant, although we strongly recommend that all children sit in the rear seat properly restrained. . Ensure that there is no article left in the seatback pocket. . Ensure that the backward-forward po- sition and seatback of front passenger’s seat are locked into place securely by moving the seat back and forth.

& Low tire pressure


warning light (U.S.-spec. models)


When the ignition switch is turned to the “ON” position, the low tire pressure warn- ing light will illuminate for approximately 2
seconds to check that the tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS) is functioning properly. If there is no problem and all tires are properly inflated, the light will turn off. Each tire, including the spare (if provided), should be checked monthly when cold and inflated to the inflation pressure recommended by the vehicle manufac- turer on the vehicle placard or tire inflation pressure label. (If your vehicle has tires of a different size than the size indicated on the vehicle placard or tire inflation pres- sure label, you should determine the proper those tires.)

As an added safety feature, your vehicle has been equipped with a tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS) that illuminates a low tire pressure telltale when one or more of your tires is significantly under- inflated. Accordingly, when the low tire pressure telltale illuminates, you should stop and check your tires as soon as possible, and inflate them to the proper pressure. Driving on a significantly under-


inflated tire causes the tire to overheat and can lead to tire failure. Under-inflation also reduces fuel efficiency and tire tread life, and may affect the vehicle’s handling and stopping ability. the TPMS is not a Please note that tire maintenance, substitute for proper is the driver’s responsibility to and it maintain correct tire pressure, even if under-inflation has not reached the level to trigger illumination of the TPMS low tire pressure telltale. Your vehicle has also been equipped with a TPMS malfunction indicator to indicate when the system is not operating properly. The TPMS malfunction indicator is com- bined with the low tire pressure telltale. When the system detects a malfunction, the telltale will flash for approximately one minute and then remain continuously illuminated. This sequence will continue upon subsequent vehicle start-ups as long as the malfunction exists. When the malfunction indicator is illuminated, the system may not be able to detect or signal low tire pressure as intended. TPMS malfunctions may occur for a variety of reasons, including the installation of re- placement or alternate tires or wheels on the vehicle that prevent the TPMS from functioning properly. Always check the TPMS malfunction telltale after replacing

CAUTION


The tire pressure monitoring system is NOT a substitute for manually checking tire pressure. The tire pressure should be checked peri- odically (at least monthly) using a tire gauge.

If the tire pressures are now above the severe low pressure threshold, the low tire pressure warning light should turn off a few minutes later. Therefore, be sure to install the specified size for the front and rear tires.

. When the warning light is on (and the brake system warning light is off), the ABS function shuts down. However, the conventional brake system continues to oper- ate normally.


With a vehicle equipped with an EBD system, the ABS warning light illuminates together with the brake system warning light if the EBD system malfunctions. For further details of the EBD system mal- function warning, refer to “Brake system warning light” F3-20. NOTE If the warning light behavior is as described in the following items, the ABS system may be considered nor- mal. . The warning light illuminates right after the engine is started but turns off immediately, remaining off. . The warning light remains on after the engine has been started, but it turns off when the vehicle speed reaches approximately 8 mph (12
km/h). . The warning light illuminates during


driving, but it turns off immediately and remains off. When driving with an insufficient battery voltage such as when the engine is jump started, the ABS warning light may illumi- nate. This is due to the low battery voltage and does not indicate a malfunction. When the battery becomes fully charged, the light will turn off. & Brake system warning light


WARNING


. Driving with the brake system warning light on is dangerous. This indicates your brake system may not be working properly. If the light remains illuminated, have the brakes inspected by a SUBARU dealer immediately.


. If at all in doubt about whether the brakes are operating prop- erly, do not drive the vehicle. Have your vehicle towed to the nearest SUBARU dealer for re- pair.


This light has the following functions.

! Parking brake warning The light illuminates with the parking brake applied while the ignition switch is in the “ON” position. It turns off when the parking brake is fully released. ! Brake fluid level warning This light illuminates when the brake fluid level has dropped to near the “MIN” level of the brake fluid reservoir with the ignition switch in the “ON” position and with the parking brake fully released.


If


this occurs,


If the brake system warning light should illuminate while driving (with the parking brake fully released and with the ignition switch positioned in “ON”), it could be an indication of leaking of brake fluid or worn brake pads. immediately stop the vehicle at the nearest safe place and check the brake fluid level. If the fluid is below the “MIN” mark in the level reservoir, do not drive the vehicle. Have the vehicle towed to the nearest SUBARU dealer for repair. ! Electronic Brake Force Distribution


(EBD) system warning


The brake system warning light also illuminates if a malfunction occurs in the EBD system. In that event, it illuminates together with the ABS warning light. The EBD system may be malfunctioning if


北米Model "A8160BE-B" EDITED: 2010/ 10/ 14


the brake system warning light and ABS warning light illuminate simultaneously during driving. Even if the EBD system fails, the conven- tional braking system will still function. However, the rear wheels will be more prone to locking when the brakes are applied harder than usual and the vehi- cle’s motion may therefore become some- what harder to control. If the brake system warning light and ABS warning light illuminate simultaneously, take the following steps. 1. Stop the vehicle in the nearest safe, flat place. 2. Shut down the engine, apply the parking brake and then restart it. 3. Release the parking brake. If both warning lights turn off, the EBD system may be malfunctioning. Drive carefully to the nearest SUBARU dealer and have the system inspected. 4. If both warning lights illuminate again and stay illuminated after the engine has been restarted, shut down the engine again, apply the parking brake, and check the brake fluid level. If the brake fluid level is not below the 5. “MIN” mark, the EBD system may be malfunctioning. Drive carefully to the nearest SUBARU dealer and have the system inspected.
