NOTE y
If the connection between the radio and battery
is broken for any reason such as vehicle mainte-
nance or radio removal, all stations stored in the
preset buttons are cleared. If this occurs, it is nec-
essary to reset the preset buttons. y If a cell phone is placed near the radio, it may
cause the radio to emit noise when it receives
calls. This noise does not indicate a radio fault.

Rear passenger’s cup holder
A dual cup holder is built in the rear center console.Accessory power outlet
The accessory power outlet is located at the rear of the
center console.
Electrical power (12V DC) fr om the battery is available
at the outlet when the ignition switch is either in the
“ACC” or “ON” position.
You can use an in-car use electrical appliance by con-
necting it to the outlet.
y Do not attempt to use a cigarette lighter in the
accessory power outlet.

yDo not place any foreign objects, especially
metal ones such as coins or aluminum foil, into
the accessory power outlet. That could cause a
short circuit. Always put the cap on the acces-
sory power outlet when it is not in use.y Use only electrical appliances which are de-
signed for 12V DC and which consume less
than 120W. Overloading the accessory power
outlet can cause a short circuit. Do not use dou-
ble adapters or more than one electrical appli-
ance.y If the plug on your elec tric appliance is either
too loose or too tight for the accessory power
outlet, this can result in a poor contact or cause
the plug to get stuck. Only use plugs that fit
properly. y Use of an electric appliance in the accessory
power outlet for a long period of time while the
engine is not running can cause battery dis-
charge.y Do not raise the rear seat cushion while an
electric appliance is plugged into the accessory
power outlet. The rear seat cushion would hit
the electric appliance, possibly damaging the
accessory power outlet and the electric appli-
ance.
Cigarette lighter socket
y The electrical power socket located on the
lower part of the instrument panel is originally
designed to use a genuine SUBARU cigarette
lighter plug. Do not use non-genuine cigarette
lighter plugs in the socket. Doing so may cause
a short-circuit and overheating, resulting in a fire. y If the socket is ever used for a plug-in acces-
sory such as a cell phone, they may damage the
portion of the socket’s internal mechanism that
causes a cigarette lighter plug to “pop out” af-
ter its lighter element is heated. Therefore, do
not place a cigarette lighter plug in a socket
that has been used, even once, to power a plug-
in accessory. Doing so may cause the plug to
stick and overheat, creating a potential fire haz-
ard.y Do not place any foreign objects, especially
metal ones such as coins or aluminum foil, into
the socket. That could cause a short circuit.

„Using as an accessory power outlet
Electrical power (12V DC) from the battery is available
at the socket when the ignition switch is either in the
“ACC” or “ON” position.
If you use the socket as an accessory power outlet,
take the following precautions.
When the socket is not in use, always put the cap on
the socket to prevent any foreign object from entering
it.
y Use only in-car use electrical appliances
which are designed for 12V DC and which con-
sume less than 120W. Overloading the socket
can cause a short circuit. Do not use double
adapters or more than one electrical appliance. y If the plug on your elec tric appliance is either
too loose or too tight for the socket, this can re-
sult in a poor contact or cause the plug to get
stuck. Only use plugs that fit properly. y Use of an electric appliance in the socket for
a long period of time while the engine is not
running can cause battery discharge. y Before driving your vehicle, make sure that
the plug and the cord on your electrical appli-
ance will not interfere wi th your shifting gears and operating the accelerator and brake pedals.
If they do, do not use the electrical appliance
while driving.
If the socket has been used for electrical appliances,
damage may have been done to the internal mecha-
nism that cause a cigarette lighter to “pop-out” after its
element has been heated. For that reason, a cigarette
lighter, even if it is a ge nuine part, should not be used
in the socket. If you want to use the socket for a ciga-
rette lighter again, or to pr otect your purchaser before
you sell your vehicle, have your SUBARU dealer re-
place the socket with a new one.
