Safety / In Case of Emergency

Child Restraint System For maximum safety, first carefully read the LATCH system instructions from the device manufacturer, as well as the installation instructions in your Owner’s Manual, to properly install the LATCH compatible restraint system. Use the appropriate seatbelts or anchorages provided in your vehicle. Children age 12 and under must properly occupy the rear seat at all times.

Internal Child Safety Trunk Release with Self-Illuminating Handle In the event that children or adults become locked inside the trunk, this luminescent handle allows them to open the lid from inside the trunk. To open, simply pull the yellow handle downward as indicated by the arrow on the handle, and then push up on the lid.

Location of Spare Tire and Jack A jack and other maintenance tools are stored in the tool bucket in the center of the spare tire, located in the trunk or cargo area. Raise the center lid and remove the bucket from the center of the spare tire. Take the jack out of the bucket. The jack handle is stowed on the back of the floor cover of the trunk.

Child Safety Locks The child safety locks are located on the inside edges of the rear doors. In the locked position, the rear doors can only be opened from the outside.

Trunk Lid Opener Switch (inside glovebox) With the trunk lid opener switch on, the trunk lid cannot be opened with the trunk lid release or with the key.

To lock the trunk lid opener switch, press the trunk lid opener lock button. To unlock the trunk lid opener switch, press the switch again.

Towing Your All-Wheel Drive Vehicle Since all-wheel drive distributes engine power to all four wheels, improper towing will severely damage your AWD system. A flatbed truck is the only recommended way to properly transport your AWD vehicle. If towing is necessary, it is best done by your Subaru dealer or a commercial towing service.

Subaru Roadside Assistance Subaru Roadside Assistance is free and standard on every 2011 Subaru vehicle. Coverage is automatic; there are no forms to complete. Subaru Roadside Assistance is available anytime during the 3-year/36,000-mile Subaru Limited Warranty, whichever comes first.* A Subaru Roadside Assistance decal has been affixed to the driver’s door window.

Subaru Roadside Assistance: 1-800-261-2155

Exclusions Specifically excluded from Subaru Roadside Assistance coverage are service requests or claims resulting from: accidents, vandalism, acts of God, violation of any laws, or vehicle modifications not recommended by the manufacturer.

• Depending on the setting of the cell phone, the dial lock function may be activated after

making a call. Deactivate the automatic dial lock function of the cell phone before using the Hands-free system. Do not perform this operation while driving.

o Driving with a window open.

o When air from the ventilator blows directly towards the microphone.

o When the sound coming from the ventilator is loud.

o When the cell phone is positioned too closely to the microphone.

connected to the system or the circumstances of the Bluetooth network.

• When another Bluetooth device is simultaneously connected, noise may be heard

in the voice coming from the hands-free phone.
