Rear passenger ’s cup holder (if equipped)
HB6024BAHB7009CA
The rear passenger ’s cup holder is located on the lower side of the
back of the center console. To use the cup holder, open the lid by
pulling its upper edge.
Cigarette lighter socket (if equipped)
CAUTION
The electrical power socket located on the lower part of the
instrument panel is originally designed to use a SUBARU genuine
cigarette lighter plug. Do not use non-genuine cigarette lighterplugs in the socket. Doing so may cause a short-circuit and over-heating, resulting in a fire. If the socket is ever used for a plug-in accessory such as a
mobile phone, they may damage the portion of the socket ’s inter-
nal mechanism that causes a cigarette lighter plug to “pop out ”
after its lighter element is heated. Therefore, do not place a ciga-rette lighter plug in a socket that has been used, even once, to
power a plug-in accessory. Doing so may cause the plug to stickand overheat, creating a potential fire hazard. Do not place any foreign objects, especially metal ones such
as coins or aluminum foil, into the socket. That could cause ashort circuit.

Global positioning locating capabilities will not be available if satellite
signals are obstructed. OnStar will not function if the vehicle ’s battery is discharged or discon-
nected. It may also be inoperative if the vehicle is in an accident and the
OnStar or vehicle electrical system components are damaged.
OnStar is the communication link between you and existing governmen-
tal emergency and roadside service providers. OnStar will receive your
call and use reasonable effort to contact an appropriate provider. OnStar
cannot promise that the providers will respond in a timely manner or atall.
Accessory power outlet
In the luggage compartment (if equipped) CAUTION
Do not attempt to use a cigarette lighter in the accessory
power outlet. Do not place any foreign objects, especially metal ones such
as coins or aluminum foil, into the accessory power outlet. Thatcould cause a short circuit. Always put the cap on the accessorypower outlet when it is not in use. Use only electrical appliances which are designed for 12V DC
and which consume less than 120W. Overloading the accessorypower outlet can cause a short circuit. Do not use double adapt-ers or more than one electrical appliance. If the plug on your electric appliance is either too loose or too
tight for the accessory power outlet, this can result in a poor con-tact or cause the plug to get stuck. Only use plugs that fit proper-
ly.
