After washing the vehicle or after it rains, wipe away water on the roof prior to opening the moonroof to prevent drops of water from falling into the passenger compartment. ! Anti-entrapment function When the moonroof senses an object trapped between its glass and the vehi- cle’s roof during closure, it automatically moves back to either of the following positions according to the point at which it senses the object: . When the moonroof senses the object at a point between the halfway stop position and fully closed position, it moves back to the halfway stop position and stops there. . When the moonroof senses the object at a point between the halfway stop position and fully open position, it moves back to the fully open position and stops there.

The anti-entrapment function may also be activated by a strong shock on the moon- roof even when there is nothing trapped.

Ignition switch

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 sunroof 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 were driving, it could turn the ignition switch from the “ON” posi-

if

tion to the “Acc” or “LOCK” posi- tion, thereby stopping the engine. Also, the key is attached to a keyholder or to a large bunch of other keys, centrifugal force may act on it as the vehicle moves, resulting in unwanted turning of the ignition switch.

The ignition switch has four positions: LOCK, ACC, ON and START.

. If the ignition switch will not move from the “LOCK” position to the “ACC” position, turn the steering wheel slightly to the left and right as you turn the ignition switch.

& LOCK The key can only be inserted or removed in this position. The ignition switch will lock the steering wheel when you remove the key. If turn the steering wheel slightly to the right and left as you turn the key. ! Automatic transmission vehicles

turning the key is difficult,

NOTE . Keep the ignition switch in the “LOCK” position when the engine is not running. . Using electrical accessories for a long time with the ignition switch in the “ON” or “ACC” position can cause the battery to go dead.

The key can be turned from “ACC” to “LOCK” only when the selector lever is in the “P” position.

& START

CAUTION

Do not turn the ignition switch to the “START” position while the engine is running.

The engine is started in this position. The starter cranks the engine to start it. When the key is released (after the engine has started), the key automatically returns to the “ON” position. If your registered key fails to start the engine, pull out the key once (the security indicator light will blink), and then insert the key in the ignition switch and turn it to the “START” position and again try to start the engine. NOTE The engine may not start in the follow- ing cases:

The key can be turned from “ACC” to “LOCK” only when the key is pushed in while turning it.

& ACC In this position the electrical accessories (radio, accessory power outlet, etc.) can be used.

& Key reminder chime The reminder chime sounds when the driver’s door opens and the key is in the “LOCK” or “ACC” positions. The chime stops when the key is removed from the ignition switch.

& Ignition switch light For easy access to the ignition switch in the dark, the ignition switch light comes on when any of the doors are opened. The light remains on for a several seconds and gradually goes out after all doors are closed or if the key is inserted in the ignition switch.

Hazard warning flasher

The hazard warning flasher is used to warn other drivers when you have to park your vehicle under emergency conditions. The hazard warning flasher works with the ignition switch in any position.

To turn on the hazard warning flasher, push the hazard warning button on the instrument panel. To turn off the flasher, push the button again. NOTE When the hazard warning flasher is on, the turn signals do not work.

The rim of the fuel gauge flashes five times when the amount of remaining fuel reaches 2.6 US gal (10 liters, 2.2 lmp gal). If you turn the ignition switch to the “LOCK” position and back to the “ON” position, the rim will again flash five times.

The fuel gauge shows the approximate amount of fuel remaining in the tank. When the ignition switch is in the “LOCK” or “ACC” position, the fuel gauge shows “E” even if the fuel tank contains fuel. The gauge may move slightly during braking, turning or acceleration due to fuel level movement in the tank. If you press the trip knob while the ignition switch is in the “LOCK” position, the fuel gauge’s dial, needle, and rim will light up and the needle will indicate the amount of fuel remaining in the tank.

The coolant temperature will vary in accordance with the outside temperature and driving conditions.

We recommend that you drive moderately until the pointer of the temperature gauge reaches near the middle of the range. Engine operation is optimum with the engine coolant at this temperature range and high revving operation when the engine is not warmed up enough should be avoided. When the engine is not warmed up sufficiently, the S# PREP indicator light turns on. While this indicator light is on, the SI-DRIVE mode cannot be changed to the Sport Sharp (S#) mode. For details about the SI-DRIVE mode, refer to the “SI- DRIVE (Turbo models)” section in chapter 7.

properly. If there is no problem and all tires are properly inflated, the light will go out. 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 inflation pressure for 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. Please note that the TPMS is not a substitute for proper tire maintenance, and it is the driver’s respon- sibility to maintain correct tire pressure, even if under-inflation has not reached the level to trigger illumination of the TPMS

low tire pressure telltale. The TPMS gives warning both when a tire is significantly under-inflated and when there is a problem in the TPMS. The low tire pressure warning light operates differ- ently according to these conditions as follows: When a tire is significantly under- inflated: Steady illumination When there is a problem in the TPMS: Flashing Should the warning light flash, have the system inspected by your nearest SUBARU dealer as soon as possible.

WARNING

If this light does not come on briefly after the ignition switch is turned ON or the light is flashing, you should have your Tire Pressure Monitoring System checked at a SUBARU deal- er as soon as possible. If this light comes on while driving, never brake suddenly and keep driving straight ahead while gradu- ally reducing speed. Then slowly pull off the road to a safe place. Otherwise an accident involving serious vehicle damage and serious personal injury could occur. If

this light still comes on while

Black plate (149,1)

Instruments and controls 3-27

driving after adjusting the tire pres- sure, a tire may have significant damage and a fast leak that causes the tire to lose air rapidly. If you have a flat tire, replace it with a spare tire as soon as possible. When a spare tire is mounted or a wheel rim is replaced without the original pressure sensor/transmitter being transferred, the Low tire pres- sure warning light will flash. This indicates the TPMS is unable to monitor all four road wheels. Con- tact your SUBARU dealer as soon as possible for tire and sensor replace- ment and/or system resetting. If the light flashes, promptly contact a SUBARU dealer to have the system inspected.

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. After any change to tire pressure(s), the tire pressure mon- itoring system will not re-check tire inflation pressures until the vehicle is first driven more than 20 mph (32

the light will go out. & 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 on, 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 three functions: ! Parking brake warning The light comes on with the parking brake applied while the ignition switch is in the “ON” position.

If

this occurs,

If the brake system warning light should come on 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 comes on together with the ABS warning light. The EBD system may be faulty if 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, then restart it. 3. Release the parking brake. If both warning lights go out, the EBD system may be faulty. Drive carefully to the nearest SUBARU dealer and have the system inspected. 4. If both warning lights come on 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 faulty. Drive carefully to the nearest SUBARU dealer and have the system inspected. 6. is below the “MIN” mark, DO NOT drive the vehicle. Instead, have the vehicle towed to the nearest SUBARU dealer for repair. & Low fuel warning light The low fuel warning light comes on when the tank is nearly empty approximately 2.6
