2022 SUBARU BRZ Getting Started Guide

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
• Pre-Collision Brake Assist
• Pre-Collision Throttle Management
• Lane Departure Warning
• Lane Sway Warning
• Adaptive Cruise Control
• 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 76).
Pre-Collision Brake Assist
This function activates when the Pre-Collision Braking System is activated, the system
determines that there is a high risk of collision with an obstacle in front, and you apply the
brakes. The function assists by applying additional pressure to the braking system to
decrease stopping distance.
This system can be turned on or off by using the Pre-Collision Braking System OFF switch
(see page 76).

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 by using the Pre-Collision Braking System OFF switch
(see page 76).
Lane Departure Warning
This function provides audible and visual
warnings if you are about to depart your lane
of travel. Using the EyeSight
®camera, the
Lane Departure Warning function identifies
lane markings when traveling at speeds of
approximately 30 mph or greater. These
warnings are displayed in the Combination
Meter Display (CMD) with audible beeps. Lane
Departure Warning does not provide any
corrective actions.
You can turn this system on or off in the Center
Information Display (CID) (see
page 76).

Lane Sway Warning
This function detects repetitive or unusual
side-to-side vehicle movement within a lane of
travel that may indicate a drowsy or inattentive
driver. Using the EyeSight
®camera, the Lane
Sway Warning function activates to identify lane
markings when traveling at speeds of
approximately 37 mph or greater and deactivates
when vehicle speed falls below 25 mph.
Warnings are displayed in the Combination Meter
Display (CMD) with audible beeps. Lane Sway
Warning does not provide any corrective actions.
You can turn this system on or off In the Center
Information Display (CID) (see
page 76).
Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC)
This system provides cruise control with the
ability to keep a safe distance from the car in
front of you. Using the EyeSight
®camera, the
Adaptive Cruise Control function identifies
vehicles in front of you in the same lane, and your
vehicle follows the vehicle in front (up to the
maximum of your set speed). While following,
your vehicle will automatically maintain a
following distance that corresponds to the speed
of the vehicle in front. The vehicle is capable of
being controlled at a speed between 0 mph and
approximately 90 mph.
You can turn the Adaptive Cruise Control on or
off using the Adaptive Cruise Control On/Off
button on the side of the Adaptive Cruise
Control lever (see page 75). Once the system is turned on, a white Adaptive Cruise Control
icon will be displayed on the Combination Meter Display (CMD). When all the operational
conditions are met, “READY” appears underneath the Adaptive Cruise Control icon.
To set Adaptive Cruise Control, push down Adaptive Cruise Control lever to the “– SET”
side. The "READY" indicator turns off, the Adaptive Cruise Control icon turns green, and
the CMD indicates the set vehicle speed. This speed can be adjusted up or down using
the “+ RES” or “– SET ” sides of the lever (see page 75).
When a vehicle in front of you is identified, a Lead Vehicle indicator and icon will be
displayed on the Combination Meter Display (CMD) . You can change the desired following
distance from the lead vehicle by pressing the Following Distance Button (see page 75).

Conventional Cruise Control
Conventional Cruise Control maintains a
constant traveling speed you set, but it does
not adapt to the other vehicles in front of you.
To activate Conventional Cruise Control, press
the Adaptive Cruise Control On/Off button to
set Adaptive Cruise Control into standby
status. Then, with Adaptive Cruise Control in
standby status, press and hold the Following
Distance Button on the steering wheel for
approximately two seconds.
The Cruise Control indicator on the
Combination Meter Display (CMD) will change
from the Adaptive Cruise Control icon to the
Conventional Cruise Control icon, and the
“READY” indicator appears when all operational conditions are met. Use the accelerator to
reach the desired speed, then push the Cruise Control lever to the “+ RES” or the “– SET”
side to set the vehicle speed.
Lead Vehicle Start Alert
This function will provide a visual and audible
alert when a stopped vehicle in front of you
begins to move, and your vehicle remains
stationary. Warnings are displayed in the
Combination Meter Display (CMD) with
audible beeps. Lead Vehicle Start Alert is
helpful in situations where you may become
temporarily distracted at a traffic light, and the
vehicle ahead begins to move.
Navigate the CID (select “Settings”, then the
“Car” menu) to access the EyeSight
®settings
menu to turn this function on or off.

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/shift 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.
BLIND SPOT DETECTION (BSD) / REAR CROSS
TRAFFIC ALERT (RCTA)(if equipped)
This system uses radar sensors mounted behind the rear bumper on the left and right
sides that warn you if another vehicle is sensed in your blind spots. These functions
provide additional awareness when changing lanes or driving in reverse.
Blind Spot Detection (BSD)
Blind Spot Detection senses if a vehicle is
traveling at the same relative speed in your
blind spot and provides a visual warning. If the
system detects a vehicle in your blind spot,
the BSD/RCTA approach indicator light in the
corresponding side mirror frame illuminates. If
you operate the turn signal lever in the
direction the BSD/RCTA approach indicator
light is illuminated, the system provides an
additional level of warning by rapidly flashing
the BSD/RCTA approach indicator light.
Lane Change Assist (LCA)
Lane Change Assist (LCA) provides an
additional level of protection by warning you of rapidly approaching vehicles in the
neighboring lanes. If LCA detects a vehicle approaching at a high speed in the neighboring
lanes, the BSD/RCTA approach indicator light in the corresponding side mirror frame
illuminates. If you operate the turn signal lever in the direction the BSD/RCTA approach
indicator light is illuminated, the system rapidly flashes the BSD/RCTA approach indicator
light.

Rear Cross-Traffic Alert (RCTA)
This function detects a vehicle approaching
from either side as you reverse, helping you
check the rear and side areas of the vehicle
when moving backward. If RCTA detects a
vehicle approaching from either side while
moving backward, the system provides visual
and audible warnings: The BSD/RCTA
approach indicator light(s) on the side mirror(s)
flash, the BSD/RCTA warning indicator
appears in the upper corner of the Rear-Vision Camera display, and a warning buzzer
sounds.
Blind Spot Detection / Rear Cross Traffic Alert OFF
BSD/RCTA can be turned on or off in the
Center Information Display (CID):
1. Select the “Car Settings” Icon.
2. In the “Driving Assistance” menu, select
“BSD/RCTA” to turn the function on or off.
When this function is off, a yellow BSD/RCTA OFF indicator will be
displayed in Combination Meter.
