awareness, safety, and convenience in front,
to the sides, and behind your Subaru. Subaru
Driver Assist Technologies include:
• EyeSight
®Driver Assist Technology
• Rear-Vision Camera
• Pre-Collision Braking
• Front View Monitor
• Blind-Spot Detection (BSD)
• Rear Cross-Traffic Alert (RCTA)
• Reverse Automatic Braking (RAB)

OPERATION
EyeSight®is a driver assist technology that
uses dual color cameras to serve as an extra
pair of eyes on the road ahead to identify
vehicles in front, pedestrians, traffic lanes, or
other objects. If need be, the EyeSight
®
system can apply the brakes and/or reduce
engine power to help avoid or reduce the
severity of a collision. During these events, the
system will provide audible and visual alerts to
assist you in making decisions.
Since the characteristics and limitations of the
EyeSight
®color cameras are similar to human
eyes, it is important that the cameras,
windshield, and area in front of the cameras
are treated with special care. Please refer to
“Care and Limitations” on page 112 for more
details.
FUNCTIONS
The EyeSight®system features several distinct functions designed to provide extra
awareness, improve safety, reduce fatigue, and add peace of mind every time you drive
your Subaru. EyeSight
®functions include:
• Pre-Collision Braking (PCB)
• Pre-Collision Brake Assist
• Pre-Collision Throttle Management
• Lane Departure Warning (LDW)
• Lane Sway Warning
• Lane Departure Prevention
• Advanced Adaptive Cruise Control
• Advanced Adaptive Cruise Control (AACC)
• Lane Centering
• Conventional Cruise Control
• Lead Vehicle Start Alert

Pre-Collision Braking
This function helps prevent or minimize a
frontal collision with another vehicle,
pedestrian, or other objects by providing
visual and audible warnings. Warnings are
displayed in the Combination Meter Display
(CMD) with audible beeps. If you take no
corrective action, the system automatically
reduces engine power and applies the brakes
with increasing force to help prevent or
minimize the collision.
This system can be turned on or off in the
Center Information Display (CID) (see
page 102).
Pre-Collision Brake Assist
This function recognizes a possible collision with another vehicle, a pedestrian, or object in
front while you are applying the brakes. If the system determines not enough force is
applied, it can assist by applying additional pressure to the braking system to decrease
stopping distance.
This system can be turned on or off in the Center information Display (CID) (see page 102).
Pre-Collision Throttle Management
This function is designed to help prevent you from unintentionally accelerating into a
stopped vehicle or other obstacle by reducing engine power. Warnings are displayed in the
Combination Meter Display (CMD) with audible beeps.
Pre-Collision Throttle Management is helpful when:
• You unintentionally place the select lever in the “D” position instead of the “R” position
and start to accelerate toward a parked car, wall or parking structure.
• While you are at a stop, the vehicle ahead of you accelerates, but then suddenly slows
down or stops as you begin to accelerate.
This system can be turned on or off in the Center Information Display (CID) (see page 102).
