Vehicles with a keyless access with push button start system
The push-button ignition switch is in “ON” mode.
■ The brightness of the instrument panel lights
When the front position lights or headlights are turned on, the instrument
panel lights will be dimmed. However, if the surrounding area is bright, the
brightness of the instrument panel lights will be set to maximum regardless
of the position of the control dial (aut o dimmer cancel function). In this case,
the brightness of the instrument panel lights will not be able to be changed
by the control dial.
■ Fuel gauge
● When the indicator needle is close to “E”, promptly refuel the vehicle.
● The relationship between the indicator needle and the consumed amount
(remaining fuel) is not always accurate. Only use it as a reference.
● When the vehicle is on an incline or curve, sudden acceleration and
stops and so forth cause the fuel inside the tank to move which may
cause the indicator needle to move up and down.
■ Customization that can be configured at your SUBARU dealer
The sensitivity of the auto dimmer cancel function can be changed.
(Customizable features →P. 522)
