TPMS Screen
This screen displays each tire pressure.
Refer to "Drive Information" P153.■
Initializing the Tire Pressure
Monitoring System
When setting the tire inflation pressure
above the specified level, initialize the tire
pressure monitoring system.
When the tire pressure monitoring system
is initialized, the current tire inflation pres-
sure is set as the standard pressure.
■
How to Initialize the Tire
Pressure Monitoring System
(If Equipped)
1. Park the vehicle in a safe place and
turn the ignition switch to the “OFF” posi-
tion.
Initialization cannot be performed while
the vehicle is moving.
2. Adjust the tire inflation pressure to the
specified cold tire inflation pressure level.
Refer to "Tires" P385.
Make sure to adjust the tire pressure to
the specified cold tire inflation pressure
level. The tire pre ssure monitoring system
will operate based on this pressure level.
3. Turn the ignition switch to the “ON”
position.

4. Press and hold the TPMS set switch
until the low tire pressure warning light
blinks slowly 3 times.■
If You Press the Tire Pres-
sure Monitoring Reset
Switch Accidentally
If initialization is performed, adjust the tire
inflation pressure to the specified level
and initialize the tire pressure monitoring
system again.■
Initialization Procedure
Make sure to carry out initialization
after adjusting the tire inflation pressure.
Also, make sure the tires are cold before
carrying out initialization or tire inflation
pressure adjustment.
If you have accidentally turned the igni-
tion switch to the “OFF” position during
initialization, it is not necessary to press
the TPMS set switch again as initialization
will restart automatically when the engine
is restarted.
If you accidentally press the TPMS set
switch when initializa tion is not necessary,
adjust the tire inflation pressure to the
specified level when the tires are cold, and
conduct initialization again.
■
When Initialization of the Tire
Pressure Monitoring System
has Failed
Initialization can be completed in a few
minutes. However, in the following case,
the settings have not been recorded and
the system will not operate properly. If
repeated attempts to record tire inflation
pressure settings are unsuccessful, have
the vehicle checked at your SUBARU
dealer.
When operating the TPMS set switch,
low tire pressure warning light does not
blink 3 times.
After carrying out the initialization
procedure, the low tire pressure warning
light blinks for 1 minute then stays on after
driving for 20 minutes.
■
Registering ID Codes
Every tire pressure warning valve and
transmitter has a unique ID code. In addi-
tion to the set of tire pressure warning
system sensor ID code s initially registered
to the vehicle, a second set of ID codes
can be registered.
A second set of tire pressure warning
system sensor ID codes can be registered
at your SUBARU dealer. When 2 sets of
ID codes have been registered, either ID
code set can be selected.■
Changing the ID code set
1. Park the vehicle in a safe place and
turn the ignition switch to the “ON” posi-
tion.
2. Press the TPMS set switch 3 times
within 3 seconds.
3. The low tire pressure warning light will
illuminate for 3 seconds and then blink 3
times.
4. The low tire pressure warning light will
blink for 1 minute and then illuminate.
5. When the ID code change has
completed, the tire pressure monitoring
light will turn off.
Check that tire pressures are displayed on
the TPMS screen.
WARNING
Do not operate the TPMS set switch
without first adjusting the tire infla-
tion pressure to the specified level.
Otherwise, the low tire pressure
warning light may not come on even
if the tire inflation pressure is low,
or it may come on when the tire
inflation pressure is actually nor-
mal.

vehicle. When the lever is set to other
positions, the image before setting to “R”
is displayed.
1. Set the ignition switch to “ON”.
2. Set the shift lever/ select lever to “R”.NOTEThe image of the rear view camera is
horizontally reversed as is the case
with the vehicle inside mirror or the
outside mirror.
When “Rear Camera Delay Control”
is on, the rear view image from the rear
view camera will be displayed on the
center information display for a certain
amount of time after the shift lever (MT
models) or select lever (AT models) is
shifted from “R” to another position.
When any of the following conditions
are met, the rear view image will be
canceled: - The select lever is shifted to “P”
(AT models)
- The vehicle speed becomes
approximately 5 mph (8 km/h) or
more
- The parking brake is engaged
- 9 seconds have elapsed since
the shift lever (MT models) or select
lever (AT models) was shifted from
“R” to another position To turn the function
on and off, refer to
"General settings"
P161.
It may be difficult to see the image of
the rear view camera in the following
cases. This is not a malfunction of the
camera. - The vehicle is in a dark place (at
night, in a tunnel, etc.).
- The vehicle is in an extremely hot
or cold place.
- An object (such as raindrops,
snow, dirt, etc.) that disturbs the
view of the rear view camera sticks
to the lens of the camera.
- Strong light is shining directly on
the camera lens (occasionally, there
are vertical lines on the screen).

wide projection on its upper part such as a
sign pole behind the vehicle, the projec-
tion cannot be seen on the screen.■
Help Lines
The help lines are a guide to help you
realize the actual distance from the screen
image.NOTEIf you shift to the “R” range within sev-
eral seconds after turning on the igni-
tion switch, the warning message may
not be displayed. Wait for several sec-
onds after turning on the ignitionswitch before shifting to the “R”
range. Then, the warning message will
be displayed.
Help lines
1) Vehicle width line (oblique vertical line)
2) Approx. 10 ft (3 m) from the bumper
(green horizontal line)
3) Approx. 6 ft (2 m) from the bumper (green horizontal line)
4) Approx. 3 ft (1 m) from the bumper (yellow horizontal line)
5) Approx. 1.5 ft (0.5 m) from the bumper (red horizontal line)
6) Vehicle centerline
7) Dynamic guidelinesWhen the shift lever/select lever is set to
“R”, the monitor screen displays the help
lines together with the rear view image.

Difference between screen image
and actual road
The distance markers show the distance
for a level road when the vehicle is not
loaded. It may be different from the actual
distance depending on the loading condi-
tions or road conditions. ▽
When there is an upward slope
at the back
1) 3 ft (1 m)The distance on the screen looks farther
than the actual distance. ▽
When there is a downward slope
at the back
1) 3 ft (1 m)The distance on the screen looks nearer
than the actual distance.NOTEWhen cargo is loaded, the rear view
distance on the screen looks farther
than the actual distance as in an
upward slope.
CAUTION
When moving backward, always
check the back with your eyes
without relying on the help lines.
Otherwise, it may cause an acci-
dent or injury.The actual position may be
different from the indication of
the help lines.Differences may occur due to the
number of passengers or the
loaded cargo.When the vehicle is on a slope or
inclined against the road, the
indication is di fferent from the
actual position.
