Automatic Transmission Shift Mode
The 5-speed automatic transmission or the Continuously Variable Transmission
(CVT) gives you ultimate control with two different driving modes: Normal Mode
and Manual Mode.
Normal Mode
When the selector lever is in the “D” (Drive) position, the tran\
smission is in Normal
shift mode. The shift position indicator on the instrument panel shows “\
D” and the
transmission automatically shifts into a suitable forward gear.
Manual Mode
In Manual Mode, you select the desired gear position to obtain necessary
acceleration and engine braking. Moving the selector lever left into the\
manual gate
1 from the “D” (Drive) position causes the transmission to change in\
to Manual
Mode. To shift, use the paddle shift control switches. The shift position indicator
shows the selected gear position.

Emergency Towing Your All-Wheel Drive Vehicle
Since Subaru Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive distributes engine power to all\

is the only recommended way to properly transport your AWD vehicle. If towing is
necessary, it is best done by your Subaru Retailer or a commercial towing service.
