Conventional Cruise Control
Conventional Cruise Control is a driving support system intended to allow more comfortable
driving on expressways, freeways and interstate highways. It can be used to travel at a con-
stant speed by maintaining the vehicle speed that was set by the driver (approximately 25
MPH (40 km/h) to 90 MPH (145 km/h)). Please remember that you should not exceed
posted speed limits.
About Conventional Cruise Control
WARNING
xWhen Conventional Cruise Control is functioning, the system does not per-
form tracking control to maintain following distance, as when using Adap-
tive Cruise Control.
Strive for safe driving and operate the brake pedal to decelerate the vehi-
cle as necessary in order to ensure a safe following distance from the vehi-
cle in front.
xUnder the following conditions, do not use the Conventional Cruise
Control. Doing so may result in an accident.
- Roads with heavy traffic or roads with sharp curves
You may fail to drive at a speed that is appropriate for the road condi-
tions, possibly resulting in an accident.
- Frozen roads, snow-covered roads or slippery road surfaces
The tires may spin, causing loss of control of the vehicle.
- Steep downhill grades
The set vehicle speed may be exceeded.
- On a steep continuous downhill grade
The brakes may overheat.
- When towing a trailer.
CAUTION
When using Cruise Control, be sure to check the display screen to confirm
which Cruise Control mode is selected: Adaptive Cruise Control or
Conventional Cruise Control.

During Conventional Cruise Control use, accelerator and brake control to
track the vehicle in front is not performed. Operate the accelerator and brake
pedals as necessary.
NOTE
xThe set vehicle speed can be adjusted between 25 MPH (40 km/h) and 90
MPH (145 km/h).
xDuring Conventional Cruise Control use, the set vehicle speed is not
shown on the multi function display.
xOn a downhill grade, automatic braking may operate in order to maintain
the set vehicle speed.
xTo return to Adaptive Cruise Control use, cancel the Conventional Cruise
Control then press and hold the (following distance setting) switch for
approximately 2 seconds or longer.
xFor turbo models, when the vehicle speed is set while S# (Sports Sharp
mode) of SI-DRIVE is selected, the gear shift position display in the meter
switches from the current gear position to the position.

CAUTION
If the selector lever is shifted to the position, the Conventional Cruise
Control will automatically be cancelled. However, do not shift the selector
lever into the position while driving except for an emergency. Doing so will
eliminate the engine’s tendency to brake the vehicle.
NOTE
xIf EyeSight is malfunctioning, the EyeSight warning indicator light, Pre-
Collision Braking System OFF indicator light and Lane Departure Warning
OFF indicator light illuminate. Also, a pop-up screen will be displayed on
the multi function display. If this occurs, stop the vehicle in a safe location
and then stop the engine and restart it. If the indicators remain illuminated
after restarting the engine, Conventional Cruise Control cannot be used.
This will not interfere with ordinary driving; however the system should be
inspected by a SUBARU dealer as soon as possible.
* Refer to page 76.
xWhen operation of Conventional Cruise Control has been automatically
canceled, perform the set operation again after the condition that caused
the cancellation has been eliminated. If cruise control cannot be set even
after the condition has been corrected, EyeSight may be malfunctioning.
This will not interfere with ordinary driving; however the system should be
inspected by a SUBARU dealer as soon as possible.

■Temporary stop
The buzzer will sound one short beep, and the
Pre-Collision Braking System OFF indicator
light and Lane Departure Warning OFF
indicator light will illuminate at the same time.
A symbol of “E1”, “E2” or “E3” is displayed on
the meter display, and a pop-up screen is
displayed on the multi function display. (When
the main cruise control is off, they are not
displayed.)
When the cause has been eliminated,
temporary stop will be canceled and the
EyeSight system will automatically restart.
Display Cause Action
cameras to detect objects in
front
xThe front windshield is
dirty or fogged up
xPoor weather conditions
xStrong light from the front
xExtremely hot or cold
temperatures xClean the front windshield.
xIn bad weather or if there is
strong light from the front,
the EyeSight system will
restart once you have
driven your vehicle for a
period of time and the
conditions affecting the
system have improved.
Also, as the “E1” screen
will be displayed after the
“E2” screen, once
operation of the cameras is
stable, the system will
restart. In either case, it
may take some time for the
system to restart.
If the system does not
restart, even after the
conditions have improved
and a period of time has
elapsed, contact your
SUBARU dealer for an
inspection.
