Warning and Indicator Lights
141
Instruments and Controls3
– CONTINUED –
If the brake system warning light should
illuminate while driving (with the parking
brake fully released and with the ignition
switch positioned in “ON”), it could be an
indication of leaking of brake fluid or worn
brake pads. If this occurs, immediately
stop the vehicle at the nearest safe place
and check the brake fluid level. If the fluid
level is below the “MIN” mark in the reser-
voir, do not drive the vehicle. Have the
vehicle towed to the nearest SUBARU
dealer for repair.
▼
Electronic Brake Force Distribution
(EBD) system warning
If the warning light remains on even
though the parking brake is released, the
brake fluid level may be low or there could
be a problem with the EBD system. Park
the vehicle in a safe place immediately
and contact a SUBARU dealer.
▼Vacuum pressure system warning
The brake system warning light will illumi-
nate when the vacuum pressure sensor is
malfunctioning or brake booster pressure
is decreasing. If the light continues to illu-
minate for several minutes after starting
the engine, there may be a malfunction in
the vacuum system. In this case, drive the
vehicle carefully and have the system
inspected by a SUBARU dealer.
■
Low Fuel Warning Light
The low fuel warning light illuminates
when the tank is nearly empty approxi-
mately 1.8 US gal (7.0 liters, or 1.5 Imp
gal). It only operates when the ignition
switch is in the “ON” position.■
Door Open Indicator
When any of the doors or the trunk lid is
not fully closed, the door open indicator
appears. This function is effective even if
the ignition switch is in the “OFF” or “ACC”
position.
The open door is indicated by the corre-
sponding part of the door open indicator.
Always make sure this indicator does not
appear before you start to drive.■
Power Steering
Warning Light
While the engine is running, a warning
light illuminates and a buzzer sounds if a malfunction is detected in the electric
power steering system.
NOTEIf the steering wheel is operated in the
following ways, the power steering
control system may temporarily limit
the power assist in order to prevent
the system components, such as the
control computer and drive motor,
from overheating.

The steering wheel is operated
frequently and turned sharply while the
vehicle is maneuvered at extremely low
speeds, such as while frequently
turning the steering wheel during
parallel parking.
 The steering wheel remains in the
fully turned position for a long period
of time.
At this time, there will be more resis-
tance when steering. However this is
not a malfunction. Normal steering
CAUTION
Promptly put fuel in the tank when-
ever the low fuel warning light illu-
minates. Engine misfires as a result
of an empty tank could cause dam-
age to the engine.
CAUTION
When the power steering warning
light is illuminated, there may be
more resistance when the steering
wheel is operated. Drive carefully to
the nearest SUBARU dealer and
have the vehicle inspected immedi-
ately.

Light Control Switch
178NOTEEven when the operation conditions of
the high beam assist function are met,
there may be a case in which the high
beam assist indicator does not illumi-
nate.
▼
How to temporarily lower the sensi-
tivity of the high beam assist func -
tion
The sensitivity of the high beam assist
function can be lowered by using the
following operations.
1. After turning the ignition switch to the
“ON” position, set the light control switch
to the “AUTO” position and push the
signal lever forward (high beam position).
2. After the high beam assist indicator on
the combination meter will illuminate, turn
the ignition switch to the “OFF” position.
3. Turn the ignition switch to the “ON”
position and within approximately 15
seconds, press the “ ” (following
distance setting) switch more than 10
times consecutively.
When the sensitivity of the high beam
assist function is lowered, the high beam
assist indicator light “ ” on the combina-
tion meter display (col or TFT) will flash.
NOTEThe sensitivity of the high beam
assist function cannot be lowered in
the following conditions. - Cruise control or Adaptive
Cruise Control indicator is illumi-
nated.
- The EyeSight warning indicator
(yellow) is illuminated
 The sensitivity of the high beam
assist function retu rns to normal level
the next time the ignition switch is
turned to the “OFF ” position and the
engine is restarted.
▼
How to change the headlight mode
manually
Change to the low beam:
 Set the light control switch to “ ”.
 Pull the lever while the high beam is
turning on and release it.
Change to the high beam:
Push the lever forward and release it.
At this time, the high beam assist function
will turn off, the high beam assist indicator
will turn off and the high beam indicator
light will turn on.
NOTE After manually changing the head-
light mode to the high beam, if you turn on the high beam assist function, push
the lever forward and release it.

When manually changing the head-
light mode to the high beam, if you turn
the light control switch to the “ ”
position, the parking lights, side
marker lights, tail lights and license
plate lights will turn on.
▼
T ips for the high beam assist
system
 The high beam assist function recog-
nizes the condition surrounding the
vehicle based on the brightness of illumi-
nation ahead of your vehicle, etc. There-
fore, the headlight mode may switch in
some situations that do not match to the
driver’s sense.
 A bicycle or cargo cycle may not be
detected.
 Under the following situations, the
brightness of ambient illumination may not
be detected correctly and the high beam
assist function may not work properly. As
a result, the glare of the high beam may
disturb the oncoming vehicle or vehicle
ahead. Also, the low beam mode may
continue although there are no oncoming
vehicles and vehicles ahead. In the such
cases, change the headlight mode manu-
ally.

Automatic Transmission
237
Starting and Operating7
– CONTINUED –
■
Select Lever : Shift with the brake pedal depressed
and push-button ignition switch in the “ON”
position. When shifting between “P” and “D”,
depress the brake pedal and securely stop
the vehicle before shifting.
The select lever has four positions, “P”,
“R”, “N”, “D” and also has a manual gate
for using the manual mode.NOTETo protect the engine while the select
lever is in the “P” or “N” position, the
engine is controlled so that the engine
speed may not become too high even
if the accelerator pedal is depressed
hard. ▼
P (Park)
This position is for parking the vehicle and
starting the engine. In this position, the
transmission is me chanically locked to
prevent the vehicle from rolling freely.
When you park the vehicle, first apply the
parking brake, then shift into the “P” posi-
tion. Do not hold the vehicle with only the
mechanical friction of the transmission.
To shift the select lever from the “P” to any
other position, you should depress the
brake pedal fully then move the select
lever. This prevents the vehicle from
lurching when it is started.
▼R (Reverse)
This position is for backing the vehicle. To
shift from the “N” to “R” position, stop the
vehicle completely then move the lever to
the “R” position.
▼N (Neutral)
This position is for restarting a stalled
engine. In this position, the transmission is
neutral, meaning that the wheels and
transmission are not locked. Therefore,
the vehicle will roll freely, even on the
slightest incline unless the parking brake
or foot brake is applied. ▼
D (Drive)
This position is for normal driving. The
transmission shifts automatically into a
suitable gear according to the vehicle
speed and the acceleration you require.
Also, while driving up and down a hill, the
transmission assists and controls the
driving performance and engine braking
while corresponding to the road grade.
When more acceleration is required in “D”
position, depress the accelerator pedal
fully to the floor and hold that position. The
transmission will automatically downshift.
When you release the pedal, the transmis-
sion will return to the original gear posi-
tion.
To use the manual mode, move the lever
from this position into the manual gate.
If one of the shift paddles behind the
steering wheel is operated while driving in
the “D” position, the transmission will
temporarily switch to the manual mode. In
this mode, you can shift into any gear
702768
WARNING
Do not drive the vehicle with the
select lever in the “N” (neutral)
position. Engine braking has no
effect in this condition and the risk
of an accident is consequently
increased.

Power Steering
243
Starting and Operating7
7-9. Power SteeringPower steering warning lightThe vehicle is equipped with an electric
power steering system. When the ignition
switch is turned to the “ON” position, the
power steering warning light on the combi-
nation meter illuminates to inform the
driver that the warning system is func-
tioning properly. Then, if the engine
started, the warning light turns off to
inform the driver that the steering power
assist is operational.
NOTEIf the steering wheel is operated in the
following ways, the power steering
control system may temporarily limit
the power assist in order to prevent
the system components, such as the
control computer and drive motor,
from overheating.
 The steering wheel is operated
frequently and turned sharply while the
vehicle is maneuvered at extremely low
speeds, such as while frequently
turning the steering wheel during
parallel parking.
 The steering wheel remains in the
fully turned position for a long period
of time.
At this time, there will be more resis-
tance when steering. However this is
not a malfunction. Normal steering
force will be restored after the steering
wheel is not operated for a while and the power steering control system has
an opportunity to cool down. However,
if the power steering is operated in a
non-standard way which causes
power assist limitation to occur too
frequently, this may result in a mal-
function of the power steering control
system.
702778
CAUTION
While the power steering warning
light is illuminated, there may be
more resistance when the steering
wheel is operated. Drive carefully to
the nearest SUBARU dealer and
have the vehicle inspected immedi-
ately.

Hill Start Assist System
258In both these cases, the Hill start assist
system operates under the following
conditions.
 The clutch pedal is depressed while the
brake pedal is also depressed (MT
models).
 The vehicle has stopped with the brake
pedal depressed (AT models).
Braking power is maintained temporarily
(for approximately 2 seconds) by the Hill
start assist system after the brake pedal is
released. The driver is therefore able to
start the vehicle in the same way as on a
level grade, just using the clutch pedal
(MT models only) and accelerator pedal
(all models).
If the braking power of the Hill start assist
system is insufficient after the brake pedal
is released, apply more braking power by
depressing the brake pedal again.
The Hill start assist system may not
operate on slight grades. Also, the Hill
start assist system does not operate in the
following cases.
When starting backward facing uphill
 When starting forward facing downhill
 While the parking brake is applied
 While the ignition switch is in the “ACC”
or “OFF” position 
While the Hill start assist indicator light
is illuminated. Refer to "Hill Start Assist
Indicator Light" P150.
When using the Hill start assist system, a
braking effect may be felt even after the
brake pedal has been released. However,
for MT models, this braking effect should
disappear once the clutch pedal is
released.
NOTEA slight jolt may be felt when the vehi-
cle begins to move forward after being
reversed.
701109
CAUTION
The braking power of the Hill start
assist system may not be sufficient
when strong braking power is
needed (e.g., when towing a trailer).
