Safety/In Case of Emergency
Child Restraint System
For maximum safety, first carefully read the LATCH system instructions from the
device manufacturer, as well as the installation instructions in your Owner’s Manual,
to properly install the LATCH compatible restraint system. Use the appropriate
seatbelts or anchorages provided in your vehicle. Children age 12 and under must
properly occupy the rear seat at all times.
Internal Safety Trunk Release with
Self-Illuminating Handle
In the event that children or adults become locked
inside the trunk, this luminescent handle allows them
to open the lid from inside the trunk. To open, simply
pull the yellow handle downward as indicated by the
arrow on the handle, and then push up on the lid.
Child Safety Locks
The child safety locks are located on the inside edges of the rear doors. In the locked position,
the rear doors can only be opened from the outside.

Location of
Spare Tire and Jack
A jack and other maintenance tools are
stored in the tool bucket in the center
of the spare tire, located in the trunk or
cargo area.
Emergency Towing Your
All-Wheel Drive Vehicle
Since Subaru Symmetrical All-Wheel
Drive distributes engine power to
all four wheels, improper towing
will severely damage your AWD
system. A flatbed truck 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.
