TABLE OF CONTENTS

Daytime Running Lights
The daytime running lights automatically turn on when the engine is running, the parking
brake is released, the select lever is out of the “P” position, and the light switch is set to
Off, “AUTO”, or “
”. Always turn on the headlights when it’s dark outside by rotating
the dial to the “
” or “AUTO” position.
TURN SIGNALS
Push fully up for the right turn signal and fully
down for left turn signal. Your Subaru also has
a one-touch lane changer feature: push slightly
up and release to signal a right lane change or
push slightly down and release to signal a left
lane change.
WINDSHIELD WIPERS
To turn on the wipers, press the wiper control
lever down one position for intermittent, two
positions for low speed, or three positions for
high speed. When the lever is in the
intermittent position, rotate the dial to adjust
the operating interval of the wipers. To turn the
wipers off, return the lever to the “OFF”
position. For a single wipe, move the lever up
from the “OFF” position.
Pull the lever toward you to wash the windshield. The washer will spray and the wipers will
operate while you pull the lever.

AUTO START–STOP
The Auto Start-Stop system is designed to automatically stop and restart the engine when
the vehicle is stationary for a short period of time (while waiting for a traffic light or in a
traffic jam) after the engine has warmed up. The system operates in order to reduce fuel
consumption, exhaust emissions and undesired idling noise.
Auto Start-Stop System ON/OFF
The Auto Start-Stop system can be turned on
and off in the Center Information Display (CID)
by using the Auto Start-Stop button on the
Home screen.
NOTE: The system will default to ON after the
vehicle has been shut off.
When the Auto Start-Stop system is turned OFF, the Auto Start-Stop OFF indicator
light in the combination meter display will illuminate. This is a solid yellow indicator.
System Operation
So that it can be used safely and comfortably, in addition to driver operations, the Auto
Start-Stop system is designed to constantly monitor the vehicle conditions as well as the
environment inside and outside the vehicle, in order to control stopping and restarting of
the engine.
After the vehicle has been completely stopped by depressing the brake pedal
with the select lever in the “D” position, the engine will be automatically
stopped.
If you release the brake pedal with the select lever kept in the “D” position, the
engine will be automatically restarted.
Auto Vehicle Hold (AVH) also integrates seamlessly with Auto Start-Stop functions. With
AVH, the parking brake automatically applies, so you can sit without your foot on the brake
pedal. To restart the engine, just gently press down on the accelerator pedal.

ELECTRONIC PARKING BRAKE (EPB)
To apply the parking brake,
depress the brake pedal and pull
up the parking brake switch. The
indicator light on the parking
brake switch will illuminate and
“PARK” will appear in the
Combination Meter.
To release the parking brake
manually, depress the brake pedal
and push the parking brake
switch down. To automatically
release the parking brake, gently
press the accelerator pedal with
the select lever in the “D” or “R” position.
NOTE: Automatic parking brake release will not work unless all the doors are closed and
your seatbelt is fastened.

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).
EYESIGHT

REAR-VISION CAMERA
This function provides a clear view of the area
behind the vehicle to help avoid obstacles.
Using a wide-angle camera mounted on the
rear of the vehicle, an image is automatically
displayed on the multimedia screen when you
place the select lever in the “R” position. The
displayed image features a centerline
indicator, colored distance markers, and
dynamic guidelines that move as the steering
wheel is turned.
FRONT VIEW MONITOR(if equipped)
The Front View Monitor provides you with
visibility from the front grille shown in the
Center Information Display, improving visibility
when making turns with an obstructed view or
pulling into a narrow parking spot. A guide line
is also displayed to provide distance and
width references.
Press the Front View Monitor
switch on the center console to
display the Front View Monitor
image on the Center Information
Display (CID). You can manually
turn off the Front View Monitor by
pressing the Front View Monitor
switch again or with the Car
Settings icon, Home button, or
Driver Profiles icon. The function
also automatically turns off when
the select lever is shifted to “P”,
the parking brake is applied,
vehicle speed becomes 12.5 mph
or more, or 3 minutes have
passed since the last operation.
