2014 SUBARU TRIBECA rear view mirror

WARNING
Do not attach accessories to thewindshield, or fit an extra-wide mir-ror over the rear view mirror. If theSRS airbag deploys, those objectscould become projectiles that couldseriouslyinjure vehicle occupants.
!Driver’s SRS frontal airbag
The driver’s SRS frontal airbag uses adual stage inflator. The inflator operates indifferent ways depending on the severityof impact, backward-forward adjustmentof the driver’s seat position and whether ornot he/she is wearing the seatbelt.
The backward-forward adjustment of thedriver’s seat position is monitored by the
driver’s seat position sensor under thedriver’s seat.
Whether or not the driver is wearing theseatbelt is monitored by the seatbeltbuckle switch.
Observe the following precautions. Failureto do so may cause the seatbelt buckleswitch and/or the seat position sensor tomalfunction,preventing the SUBARU ad-vanced frontal airbag system from func-tioning correctly or causing the system tofail.
.Do not place articles/metal objects orinstall any accessory other than a genuineSUBARU accessory under the driver’sseat. Do not allow the rear seat occupantto kick the driver’s seat or push up itsbottom surface with his/her feet.
.Do not place a magnet near theseatbelt buckle or under the driver’s seat.
If the seatbelt buckle switch and/or thedriver’s seat position sensor have failed,the SRS airbag system warning light willilluminate. Although the driver’sSRSfrontal airbag can deploy regardless ofthe backward-forward adjustment of thedriver’sseatpositionevenwhenthewarning light illuminates, have the systeminspected by your SUBARU dealer im-mediatelyif the SRS airbag system warn-ing light illuminates.
NOTE
The driver’sSRSsideairbag,SRScurtain airbag and seatbelt preten-sioner are not controlled by theSUBARU advanced frontal airbag sys-tem.
!Front passenger’s SRS frontal air-bag
The front passenger’s SRS frontal airbaguses a dual stage inflator. The inflatoroperates in different ways depending onthe severity of impact.
The total load on the seat is monitored bythe occupant detection system’s weightsensor located under the seat.
The system has another sensor thatmonitors the tension of the front passen-ger seatbelt. Using the total seat load andseatbelt tension data from the sensors,the occupant detection system determineswhether the front passenger’s SRS frontalairbag should or should not be inflated.
The occupant detection system may notinflate the front passenger’s SRS frontalairbag even when the driver’s SRS frontalairbagdeploys. This is normal.
Observe the following precautions. Failureto do so may prevent the SUBARUadvanced frontal airbag system fromfunctioning correctly or cause the systemto fail.
