Seat, Seatbelt and SRS Airbags1
– CONTINUED –
When you sell your vehicle, we urge
you to inform the bu yer that the vehicle
is equipped with seatbelt
pretensioners. Also, notify the buyer of
the contents in this section.■
Front passenger’s seatbelt
with Shoulder Belt Preten-
sioner
The pretensioner sensor also serves as
follows.
 Front impact sensor
 Side impact sensor
 Door impact sensor
 Rollover sensor
If the sensor detects a certain predeter-
mined amount of force during frontal or
side collisions or rollover accidents, any seatbelt that has a se
atbelt pretensioner is
quickly drawn back in by the retractor to
take up the slack so that the belt more
effectively restrains the seat occupant.
The front passenger’s seatbelt
pretensioner includes a tension reducing
device which limits the peak forces
exerted by the seatbelt on the occupant in
the event of a collisi on. The adaptive force
limiter will select a reducing load to suit the
body size of the occupant as detected by
the occupant detection sensor.
When a seatbelt pretensioner is activated,
an operating noise will be heard and a
small amount of smoke will be released.
These occurrences are normal and not
harmful. This smoke does not indicate a
fire in the vehicle.
Once the seatbelt pretensioner has been
activated, the seatbelt retractor remains
locked. Consequently, the seatbelt can
not be pulled out and retracted and there-
fore must be replaced.
■
System Monitors
A diagnostic system continually monitors
the readiness of the seatbelt pretensioner
with the ignition switch in the “ON” posi-
tion. The seatbelt pr etensioners share the
control module with the SRS airbag
system. Therefore, if any malfunction
occurs in a seatbelt pretensioner, the SRS airbag system warning light will illuminate.
For details, refer to "SRS Airbag System
Monitors"
P87.

Warning and Indicator Lights
138engine at the first safe opportunity and
contact your nearest SUBARU dealer
immediately.■
AT OIL TEMP Warning
Light (AT Models)
If this light illuminates when the engine is
running, it may indicate that the transmis-
sion fluid temperature is too hot.
If the light illuminates while driving, imme-
diately stop the vehicle in a safe place and
let the engine idle until the warning light
turns off.■
Low Tire Pressure
Warning Light (If
Equipped)
When the ignition switch is turned to the
“ON” position, the low tire pressure
warning light will illuminate for approxi-
mately 2 seconds to check that the tire
pressure monitoring system (TPMS) is
functioning properly. If there is no problem
and all tires are properly inflated, the light
will go out.
Each tire, including the spare (if provided),
should be checked monthly when cold
and inflated to the inflation pressure
recommended by the vehicle manufac-
turer on the vehicle placard or tire inflation
pressure label. (If your vehicle has tires of
a different size than the size indicated on the vehicle placard or tire inflation pres-
sure label, you should determine the
proper tire inflation pressure for those
tires.)
As an added safety feature, your vehicle
has been equipped with a tire pressure
monitoring system (TPMS) that illumi-
nates a low tire pressure telltale when one
or more of your tires is significantly under-
inflated. Accordingly, when the low tire
pressure telltale illuminates, you should
stop and check your tires as soon as
possible, and inflate
them to the proper
pressure. Driving on a significantly under-
inflated tire causes the tire to overheat
and can lead to tire failure. Under-inflation
also reduces fuel efficiency and tire tread
life, and may affect the vehicle’s handling
and stopping ability.
Please note that the TP MS is not a substi-
tute for proper tire maintenance, and it is
the driver’s responsibility to maintain
correct tire pressure, even if under-infla-
tion has not reached the level to trigger
illumination of the TPMS low tire pressure
telltale.
Your vehicle has also been equipped with
a TPMS malfunction indicator to indicate
when the system is no t operating properly.
The TPMS malfunction indicator is
combined with the low tire pressure tell-
tale. When the system detects a malfunc-
tion, the telltale will flash for approximately one minute and then remain continuously
illuminated. This sequence will continue
upon subsequent vehicle start-ups as long
as the malfunction exists. When the
malfunction indicator is illuminated, the
system may not be able to detect or signal
low tire pressure as intended. TPMS
malfunctions may occur for a variety of
reasons, including the installation of
replacement or alternate tires or wheels
on the vehicle that prevent the TPMS from
functioning properly. Always check the
TPMS malfunction telltale after replacing
one or more tires or wheels on your
vehicle to ensure that the replacement or
alternate tires and wheels allow the TPMS
to continue to function properly.
Should the warning light illuminate
steadily after blinking for approximately
one minute, have the system inspected by
your nearest SUBARU dealer as soon as
possible.
WARNING
If this light does not illuminate
briefly after the ig
nition switch is
turned ON or the light illuminates
steadily after blinking for approxi-
mately one minute, you should have
your Tire Pressure Monitoring Sys-
tem checked at a SUBARU dealer as
soon as possible.

Instruments and Controls3
– CONTINUED –
If this light illuminates while driving,
never brake suddenly. Instead, per-
form the following procedure. Oth-
erwise an accident involving
serious vehicle damage and serious
personal injury could occur.1) Keep driving straight ahead whilegradually reducing speed.2) Slowly pull off the road to a safeplace.If this light still illuminates while
driving after adjusting the tire pres-
sure, a tire may have significant
damage and a fast leak that causes
the tire to lose air rapidly. If you
have a flat tire, replace it with a
spare tire as soon as possible.
When a spare tire is mounted or a
wheel rim is replaced without the
original pressure sensor/transmitter
being transferred, the Low tire pres-
sure warning light will illuminate
steadily after blinking for approxi-
mately one minute. This indicates
the TPMS is unable to monitor all
four road wheels. Contact your
SUBARU dealer as soon as possi-
ble for tire and sensor replacement
and/or system resetting. If the light
illuminates steadily after blinking
for approximately one minute,
promptly contact a SUBARU dealer
to have the system inspected.
CAUTION
The tire pressure monitoring sys-
tem is NOT a substitute for manu-
ally checking tire pressure. The tire
pressure should be checked period-
ically (at least monthly) using a tire
gauge. After any change to tire
pressure(s), the tire pressure moni-
toring system will not re-check tire
inflation pressures until the vehicle
is first driven mo re than 25 mph (40
km/h). After adjusting the tire pres-
sures, increase the vehicle speed to
at least 25 mph (40 km/h) to start the
TPMS re-checking of the tire infla-
tion pressures. If the tire pressures
are now above the severe low pres-
sure threshold, the low tire pres-
sure warning light should turn off a
few minutes later. Therefore, be
sure to install the specified size for
the front and rear tires.

Vehicle Stability Control (VSC)/TRAC System
248
NOTEThe Vehicle Stability Control (VSC)
system and TRAC system may be con-
sidered normal when the following
conditions occur.
Slight twitching of the brake pedal is
felt.
WARNING
 Directional control and power
may not be achievable while
driving on slippery road surfaces,
even if the TRAC system is oper-
ating. Do not drive the vehicle in
conditions where stability and
power may be lost.Always use the utmost care in
driving – overconfidence
because you are driving with a
Vehicle Stability Control (VSC)
system and TRAC system
equipped vehicle could easily
lead to a serious accident.
CAUTION
Even if your vehicle is equipped
with Vehicle Stability Control
(VSC) system and TRAC system,
winter tires should be used when
driving on snow-covered or icy
roads; in addition, vehicle speed
should be reduced considerably.
Simply having a Vehicle Stability
Control (VSC) system and TRAC
system does not guarantee that
the vehicle will be able to avoid
accidents in any situation.
Activation of the Vehicle Stability
Control (VSC) system and TRAC
system is an indication that the
road being travelled on has a slip-
pery surface; since having
Vehicle Stability Control (VSC)
and TRAC is no guarantee that
full vehicle control will be main-
tained at all times and under all
conditions, its activation should
be seen as a sign that the speed
of the vehicle should be reduced
considerably. Whenever suspension compo-
nents, steering components, or
an axle are removed from a
vehicle equipped with the Vehicle
Stability Control (VSC) system
and TRAC system, have an
inspection of that system
performed by an authorized
SUBARU dealer. The following precautions should
be observed in order to ensure
that the Vehicle Stability Control
(VSC) system and TRAC system
is operating properly.
- All four wheels should be
fitted with tires of the same
size, type, and brand. Further-
more, the amount of wear
should be the same for all four
tires.- Keep the tire pressure at theproper level as shown on the
label attached to the driver’s
side center pillar.- When replacing a flat tire, useonly the specified temporary
spare tire. However, even with
the specified temporary spare
tire, the effectiveness of the
Vehicle Stability Control (VSC)
system and TRAC system will
be reduced.
If non-matching tires are used,
the Vehicle Stability Control
(VSC) system and TRAC system
may not operate correctly.
