While Operating

AT Shift Mode

Ultimate Control The automatic transmission gives you ultimate control with five forward speeds, one reverse speed, and a manual mode. Switch to the optional AT Shift mode when you need that extra boost for uphill driving.

Normal Mode When the selector lever is in the “D” (Drive) position, the transmission is in normal shift mode. The shift position indicator in the meter cluster shows “D” and the transmission automatically shifts into a suitable gear from 1st to 5th.

Sport Mode Moving the selector lever left into the manual gate from “D” changes the transmission into Sport mode. The shift position indicator shows “D” and the “SPORT” light illuminates in the meter cluster. In the Sport mode, the transmission automatically shifts from 1st to 5th, but shifts up at higher engine revolutions than in normal mode.

Manual Mode Moving the selector lever into “+” or “-” makes the transmission change into Manual mode. When the selector lever is moved to “+,” the transmission shifts into the next higher gear. When the selector lever is moved to “-,” the transmission shifts into the next lower gear. The shift position indicator in the instrument cluster shows the selected gear position. In Manual mode, you can select your desired gear position to obtain necessary acceleration and engine braking. Moving the selector lever into “+” when the vehicle stops enables the vehicle to start in 2nd gear.

Use the appropriate seatbelts or anchorages provided in your vehicle. Please refer to your Owner’s Manual for the proper installation instructions.

Location of Spare Tire and Jack Your vehicle is equipped with a temporary spare tire, located under the rear of the vehicle. The jack and necessary tools to release the spare from the vehicle are located in the storage tray, under the cargo floorboard. To remove the spare tire, remove the cargo floorboard and remove the access hole plugs located on the body, then insert the tool through the access hole and turn it counterclockwise with the wheel nut wrench. Store the flat tire in the spare tire carrier.

Towing Your All-Wheel Drive Vehicle Because all-wheel drive distributes engine power to all four wheels, improper towing will severely damage your AWD system. A flatbed truck is the only 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.

Before Use

I Precautions when using the system

CAUTION

WARNING

Read this manual first

Read this supplement carefully before using your monitor system. We are not liable for accidents or other problems resulting from failure to follow the instructions in this supplement.

Avoid operating the monitor while driving

You should stop the vehicle in a safe place before operating the monitor. For safety’s sake, some of the monitor’s functions cannot be used unless the vehicle is stationary.

Look at the monitor only when necessary

When you need to look at the monitor, do so for the shortest time possible. Looking away from the road for too long could lead to an accident.

Keep the volume low enough for you to hear outside sounds

Keep the system’s volume level low enough for you to be able to hear outside sounds while driving. To do otherwise may mean that you are unable to react appropriately to traffic conditions thus resulting in an accident.

Never disassemble or modify the monitor

Any attempt to disassemble or modify the monitor could lead to a fire, an electric shock, or some other type of accident.

Do not continue using the monitor if it malfunctions If the system shows any sign of malfunctioning (for example, the monitor gives no picture), stop using it immediately and contact the nearest SUBARU dealer. Continuing to use the system could lead to a fire, an electric shock, or some other type of accident.

If the monitor gets contaminated, emits smoke or an
