Please contact your SUBARU dealer if you
have any question regarding the installa-
tion of a child restraint system.
*SRS airbag (Supplemental
Restraint System airbag)*SRS: This stands for supplemental re-
straint system. This name is used because
the airbag system supplements the vehi-
cle’s seatbelts.
Your vehicle is equipped with a supple-
mental restraint system in addition to a lap/
shoulder belt at each front seating position
and each rear window-side seating posi-
tions. The supplemental restraint system
(SRS) consists of the following airbags:
.Driver’s and front passenger’sfrontal
airbags
.Driver’s and front passenger’sside
airbags
.Curtain airbags(for driver, front pas-
senger, and window-side rear passen-
gers)
.Knee airbagfor driver
These SRS airbags are designed only
as a supplement to the primary protec-
tion provided by the seatbelt.
The system also controls front seatbelt
pretensioners. For operation instructions
and precautions concerning the seatbelt
pretensioner, refer to“Front seatbelt pre-
tensioners”F1-17.

.Since your vehicle is equipped
with SRS curtain airbags, do not
sit or lean unnecessarily close to
the front or rear door on either
side. Also, do not put your head,
arms or hands out of the window.
The SRS curtain airbags on both
sides of the cabin are stored in
the roof side (between the front
pillar and a point behind the rear
quarter glass), and they provide
protection by deploying rapidly
(faster than the blink of an eye) in
the event of a side impact, roll-
over or an offset frontal collision.
However, the force of its deploy-
ment may cause injuries if your
head is too close to it.
.Do not sit or lean unnecessarily
close to the SRS airbag. Because
the SRS airbag deploys with
considerable speed–faster than
the blink of an eye–and force to
protect in high speed collisions,
the force of an airbag can injure
an occupant whose body is too
close to SRS airbag.
It is also important to wear your
seatbelt to help avoid injuries
that can result when the SRS
airbag contacts an occupant not
in proper position such as onethrown forward during pre-acci-
dent braking.
Even when properly positioned,
there remains a possibility that
an occupant may suffer minor
injury such as abrasions and
bruises to the face or arms be-
cause of the SRS airbag deploy-
ment force.
WARNING
.Do not rest your arm on either
front door or its internal trim. You
could be injured in the event of
SRS side airbag deployment.
.Do not place any objects over or
near the SRS airbag cover orbetween you and the SRS airbag.
If the SRS airbag deploys, these
objects could interfere with its
proper operation and could be
propelled inside the vehicle,
causing injury.
CAUTION
.When the SRS airbag deploys,
some smoke will be released.
This smoke could cause breath-
ing problems for people with a
history of asthma or other breath-
ing trouble. If you or your pas-
sengers have breathing pro-
blems after SRS airbag deploys,
get fresh air promptly.
.A deploying SRS airbag releases
hot gas. Occupants could get
burned if they come into direct
contact with the hot gas.NOTE.When you sell your vehicle, we urge
you to inform the buyer that the vehicle
is equipped with SRS airbags. Also,
notify the buyer of the applicable sec-
tion of this Owner’s Manual.
.If the SRS airbag deploys, fuel
supply will be cut off to reduce the risk

WARNING
.Never allow a child to do the
following.
–Kneel on any passenger’s seat
facing the side window
–Wrap his/her arms around the
front seat seatback
–Put his/her head, arms or
other parts of the body out of
the window
In the event of an accident, the
force of SRS side airbag and/or
SRS curtain airbag deployment
could injure the child seriously
because his/her head, arms or
other parts of the body are too
close to the SRS side airbag and/
or SRS curtain airbag.
.Since your vehicle is also
equipped with a front passen-
ger’s SRS frontal airbag, children
should be placed in the rear seat
anyway and should be properly
restrained at all times.

!SRS curtain airbag
Your vehicle is equipped with a SUBARU
SRS curtain airbag system that complies
with the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety
Standard (FMVSS) No. 226.
The SRS curtain airbag on each side of the
cabin is stored in the roof side (between
the front pillar and a point over the rear
seat). An“SRS AIRBAG”mark is located
at the top of each center pillar.
Inamoderatetoseveresideimpact
collision, the SRS curtain airbag on the
impacted side of the vehicle deploys
between the occupant and the side win-
dow and supplements the seatbelt by
reducing the impact on the occupant’s
head.
In a rollover, SRS curtain airbags on both
sides of the vehicle deploy between the
occupant and the side window and supple-
ment the seatbelt by reducing the impact to
the occupant’s head.
In an offset frontal collision, SRS curtain
airbags on both sides of the vehicle deploy
between the occupant and the side win-
dow and supplement the seatbelt by
reducing the impact to the occupant’s
head.!Operation
The SRS side airbag and SRS curtain
airbag can function only when the ignition
switch is in the“ON”position.
The following airbags deploy indepen-
dently of each other since each has its
own impact sensor.
.Driver’s SRS side airbag
.Front passenger’s SRS side airbag
.SRS curtain airbag (right-hand side)
.SRS curtain airbag (left-hand side)
Therefore, they may not both deploy in the
same accident. Also, the SRS side airbag
and SRS curtain airbag deploys indepen-
dently of the driver’s and front passenger’s
SRS frontal airbags in the steering wheel
and instrument panel.
An impact sensor, which senses impact
force, is located in each of the following
locations.
.In the left and right front doors
.In the left and right center pillars
.In the left and right rear wheel houses
.Under the rear center seat
.On both sides of the radiator panel
(frontal impact sensor)
The rollover sensor and frontal impact
sensor are located inside the airbagcontrol module, which is located under
the center of the instrument panel.

nents of the SRS airbag system are
replaced, use only genuine SUBARU
parts.
NOTEIn the following cases, contact your
SUBARU dealer as soon as possible.
.The front part of the vehicle was
involved in an accident in which only
the driver’s SRS frontal airbag or both
driver’s and front passenger’sSRS
