position and within approximately 15 sec-
onds, press the“
/
”(following distance
setting) switch more than 10 times con-
secutively.

!Tips for the high beam assist sys-
tem
.The high beam assist function recog-
nizes the conditions surrounding the ve-
hicle based on the brightness of illumina-
tion ahead of your vehicle, etc. Therefore,
the headlight mode may switch in some
situations that do not match to the driver’s
sense.
.A bicycle or cargo cycle may not be
detected.
.Under the following situations, the
brightness of ambient illumination may
not be detected correctly and the high
beam assist function may not work prop-
erly. As a result, the glare of the high beam
maydisturbtheoncomingvehicleor
vehicle ahead. Also, the low beam mode
may continue although there are no
oncoming vehicles and vehicles ahead.
In the such cases, change the headlight
mode manually.
–In bad weather (fog, snow, sand
storm, heavy rain, etc.).
–When the windshield glass is dirty or
fogged.
–When the windshield is cracked or
damaged.
–Whenthestereocameraisde-
formed or the stereo camera lensesare dirty.
–If there are lights similar to the
headlights or the tail lights in the
surrounding area.
–When an oncoming vehicle or ve-
hicle ahead is driven without its head-
lights and tail lights on.
–If the headlights of an oncoming
vehicle or the tail lights of a vehicle
ahead are dirty or discolored, or if the
light beams are not aimed correctly.
–When a rapid change of brightness
continues while driving.
–When driving on a road with many
ups and downs or uneven surfaces.
–When driving on a road with many
curves.
–When there are some objects that
reflect light strongly, such as a road
sign or a mirror in vehicle ahead.
–When the rear part of the vehicle
ahead, such as a container, reflects
light strongly.
–When the headlights of your vehicle
are damaged or dirty.
–When your vehicle is tilted, such as
in case the vehicle has a flat tire or is
being towed.
–Immediately after the engine has
started.
.In the following conditions, the head-
light mode will not be automatically chan-ged from the high beam to the low beam.
–When your vehicle passes an on-
coming vehicle suddenly in a blind
curve.
–When another vehicle passes in
front of your vehicle.
–When an oncoming vehicle or ve-
hicle ahead comes in and out of view
because of continuous curves, median
strips, roadside trees, etc.
.If the stereo camera detects the light of
the front fog lights of an oncoming vehicle,
the headlight mode may change from the
high beam to the low beam automatically.
.The headlight mode may change from
the high beam to the low beam, or the low
beam mode may continue, when affected
by a street light, traffic signal, illumination
of an advertisement board, or a reflective
object such as a road sign and signboard.
.The timing of the change of headlight
mode may differ due to the following
factors.
–Color or brightness of the headlights
of an oncoming vehicle or the tail lights
of a vehicle ahead.
–The headlights of the oncoming
vehicle or the tail lights of the vehicle
ahead are covered with mud, snow,
etc.
–Movement and direction of an on-
coming vehicle or a vehicle ahead.

the stereo camera.
&Daytime running light system
WARNING
When the daytime running lights are
illuminated, the tail lights do not
illuminate. When it becomes dark
outside, turn the light switch to the
“
”position to illuminate the head-
lights and tail lights. This will im-
prove visibility and allow other dri-
vers to see your vehicle more easily.
The daytime running lights will automati-
cally illuminate when the following condi-
tions are fulfilled.
.The engine is running.
.The parking brake is fully released.
.The light control switch is in the“AUTO”
(if equipped),“
”or off position..For CVT models, the select lever is in a
position other than the“P”position.
NOTEWhen the light switch is in the“
”
position, the instrument panel illumina-
tion, front side marker lights, tail lights
and license plate lights are also illumi-
nated.
Steering Responsive Head-
light (SRH) (if equipped)1) The target area of illumination when SRH
is activated
2) The target area of illumination when SRH
is not activatedSRH is a function that automatically moves
the headlight beam to the left or right in
accordance with the steering angle and
vehicle speed. This function helps to
improve the visibility at night by illuminat-
ing the road ahead at corners and inter-
sections.

You can turn the SRH function on or off by
pressing the SRH OFF switch.1) SRH OFF indicatorThe SRH OFF indicator on the combina-
tion meter turns off when SRH is turned on.
The SRH OFF indicator on the combina-tion meter illuminates when SRH is turned
off.
If SRH is malfunctioning, the SRH OFF
indicator on the combination meter flashes
when the ignition switch is in the“ON”
position. It indicates that SRH has been
deactivated. Contact a SUBARU dealer for
an inspection.
NOTE.If you turn the ignition switch to the
“OFF”position with SRH turned off and
then start the engine again, SRH will
automatically turn on.
.When you turn the ignition switch to
the“ON”position, the SRH OFF indi-
cator will illuminate and turn off after
several seconds.
.SRH only activates when the vehicle
is traveling forward at the speed of
approximately 5 mph (8 km/h) or more.
.SRH may not activate when the shift
lever (MT models) is selected in 1st
gear.
Headlight beam leveler
(models with LED headlights)The LED headlights produce more light
than conventional halogen headlights.
When the vehicle is carrying a heavy load
and the headlight beams are angled
upwards, the driver of an oncoming vehicle
may experience glare.
To prevent this, the automatic headlight
beam leveler adjusts the headlights to the
optimum height automatically depending
on the load the vehicle is carrying.
