. It is unnecessary to speak directly into
the microphone when giving a command. NOTE . Wait for the confirmation beep be-
fore speaking a command.
. Voice commands may not be recog-
nized if:
– Spoken too quickly.
– Spoken at a low or high volume.
– The roof or windows are open.
– Passengers are talking while
voice commands are spoken.
– The air conditioning speed is set
high.
– The air conditioning vents are
turned towards the microphone.
. In the following conditions, the sys-
tem may not recognize the command
properly and using voice commands
may not be possible:
– The command is incorrect or
unclear. Note that certain words,

possible.
. Stow cargo and luggage in the
trunk whenever possible.
. To prevent cargo and luggage
from sliding forward during brak-
ing, do not stack anything in the
enlarged trunk. Keep cargo and
luggage low, as close to the floor
as possible.
. When you carry something inside
the vehicle, secure it whenever
you can to prevent it from being
thrown around inside the vehicle
during sudden stops, sharp turns
or in an accident.
. Do not pile heavy loads on the
roof. These loads raise the vehi-
cle ’ s center of gravity and make it
more prone to tip over.
. Secure lengthy items properly to
prevent them from shooting for-
ward and causing serious injury
during a sudden stop.
. Never exceed the maximum load
limit. If you do, some parts on
your vehicle can break, or it can
change the way your vehicle
handles. This could result in loss
of control and cause personal
injury. Also, overloading can
shorten the life of your vehicle. . Do not place cargo or luggage in
or on the following locations as
the item may get under the
clutch, brake, or accelerator ped-
al and prevent the pedals from
being depressed properly, block
the driver ’ s vision, or hit the
driver or passengers, causing
an accident:
– At the feet of the driver
– On the front passenger or rear
seats (when stacking items)
– On the rear shelf
– On the instrument panel
– On the dashboard
CAUTION
Do not carry spray cans, containers
with flammable or corrosive liquids
or any other dangerous items inside
the vehicle.
NOTE For better fuel economy, do not carry
unneeded cargo. & Vehicle capacity weight
Vehicle placard
The load capacity of your vehicle is
determined by weight, not by available
cargo space. The maximum load you can
carry in your vehicle is shown on the
vehicle placard attached to the driver ’ s
side door pillar. It includes the total weight
of the driver and all passengers and their
belongings, any optional equipment such
as a roof rack or bike carrier, etc. Driving tips/Loading your vehicle

In case of emergency/Moonroof – if the moonroof does not close
Moonroof (if equipped) – if
the moonroof does not close If the moonroof does not close, we
recommend that you have the system
checked by a SUBARU dealer.
If your vehicle is involved in
an accident CAUTIONIf your vehicle is involved in an
accident, be sure to inspect the
ground under the vehicle before
restarting the engine. If you find that
fuel has leaked on the ground, do
not try to restart the engine. The fuel
system has been damaged and is in
need of repair. Immediately contact
the nearest automotive service facil-
ity. We recommend that you consult
your SUBARU dealer.
Your vehicle has a fuel pump shut off
system. To minimize the risk of fire due to
fuel leakage when the engine stalls or an
airbag inflates upon collision, the system
stops supplying fuel to the engine.
Perform the following procedures to re-
start the engine after the system is
activated.
Models without “ keyless access with
push-button start system ” :
1. Turn the ignition switch to the “ LOCK ”
or “ ACC ” position.
2. Restart the engine. Models with “ keyless access with
push-button start system ” :
1. Turn the push-button ignition switch to
the “ ACC ” or “ OFF ” position.
2. Restart the engine.

ger cars, multipurpose passenger

trim. .
Radial ply tire
A pneumatic tire in which the ply
cords that extend to the beads are
laid at substantially 90 degrees to
the centerline of the tread. .
Recommended inflation pres-
sure
The cold inflation pressure recom-
mended by a vehicle manufacturer. .
Reinforced tire
A tire designed to operate at higher
loads and at higher inflation pres-
sures than the corresponding stan-
dard tire. .

– CONTINUED –13-7

Consumer information and Reporting safety defects/Tire information
& Tire care – maintenance and
safety practices.
Check on a daily basis that the
tires are free from serious damage,
nails, and stones. At the same time,
check the tires for abnormal wear. .
Inspect the tire tread regularly
and replace the tires before their
tread wear indicators become visi-
ble. When a tire ’ streadwear
indicator becomes visible, the tire
is worn beyond the acceptable limit
and must be replaced immediately.
With a tire in this condition, driving
at even low speeds in wet weather
can cause the vehicle to hydro-
plane. Possible resulting loss of
vehiclecontrolcanleadtoan
accident. .
Replace any damaged or un-
evenly worn tires at the time of
rotation. For information about the
tire rotation order, refer to “ Tire
rotation ” F 11-36 .
After tire rotation,
adjust the tire pressures and make
sure the wheel nuts are correctly
tightened. For information about the tightening torque and tighten-
ing sequence for the wheel nuts,
refer to “ Flat tires ” F 9-4 .
& Vehicle load limit – how to
determine
The load capacity of your vehicle is
determined by weight, not by avail-
able cargo space. The load limit of
your vehicle is shown on the
vehicle placard attached to the
driver ’ s side B-pillar. Locate the
statement “ The combined weight
of occupants and cargo should
never exceed XXX kg or XXX lbs ”
on your vehicle ’ s placard.
Thevehicleplacardalsoshows
seating capacity of your vehicle.
The total load capacity includes the
total weight of driver and all pas-
sengers and their belongings, any
cargo, any optional equipment such
as a roof rack or bike carrier, etc.
Therefore cargo capacity can be
calculated by the following method.
Cargo capacity = Load limit − (total weight of occupants + total weight
of optional equipment)
For information about vehicle load-
ing, refer to “ Loading your vehicle ”
