Maintenance and care
BRZ_U
■
Caring for leather areas
SUBARU recommends cleaning the interior of the vehicle at least twice a
year to maintain the quality of the vehicle’s interior.
■ Shampooing the carpets
There are several commercial foaming-type cleaners available. Use a
sponge or brush to apply the foam. Rub in overlapping circles. Do not apply
water. Excellent results are obtained by keeping the carpet as dry as possi-
ble.
■ Seatbelts
Clean with mild soap and lukewarm water using a cloth or sponge. Also
check the belts periodically for excessive wear, fraying or cuts.
WARNING
■Water in the vehicle
● Do not splash or spill liquid in the vehicle.
Doing so may cause electrical components etc. to malfunction or catch
fire.
● Do not get any of the SRS components or wiring in the vehicle interior wet.
(→ P. 98)
Electrical malfunction may cause the airbags to deploy or not function
properly, resulting in death or severe injury.
■ Cleaning the interior (especially instrument panel)
Do not use polish wax or polish cleaner. The instrument panel may reflect off
the windshield, obstructing the driver's view and leading to an accident,
resulting in death or serious injury.

Votre véhicule est équipé d'airbags avancés (ADVANCED AIRBAGS)
conçus selon les normes de sécurité américaines applicables aux
véhicules à moteur (FMVSS208). Le système d’airbag contrôle la
puissance de déploiement des airbags pour le conducteur et le
passager avant. Le système d'airbag passager avant comprend le
module de contrôle de détection des occupants du siège passager
avant, etc.
Les principaux éléments du système d'airbags SRS sont illustrés ci-
dessus. Le système d'airbags SRS est commandé par le module de
contrôle de l'airbag. Le module de contrôle d'airbag consiste en un
capteur d'airbag.
Lorsque la violence du choc frontal ou latéral l'exige, le système
d'airbags SRS déclenche les dispositifs de gonflage. Le déploiement
rapide des airbags est obtenu au moyen d'une réaction chimique
dans les dispositifs de gonflage, qui produit un gaz inoffensif
permettant d'amortir le mouvement des occupants.
