Vehicle Stability Control
(VSC) System
In the event of wheelspin and/or skidding
on a slippery road surface and/or during
cornering and/or an evasive maneuver,
the Vehicle Stability Control (VSC) system
adjusts the engine’s output and the
wheels’ respective braking forces to help
maintain traction and directional control.
The skid suppression function is designed
to help maintain directional stability by
suppressing the wheels’ tendency to slide
sideways during steering operations. Acti-
vation of this function is indicated by
flashing of the Vehicle Stability Control
(VSC) operation indicator light.NOTE In the following circumstances, the
vehicle may be less stable than it feels
to the driver. The Vehicle Stability
Control (VSC) system may therefore
operate. Such operation does not indi-
cate a system malfunction. - On gravel-covered or rutted
roads
- On unfinished roads
- When the vehicle is towing a
trailer - When the vehicl
e is fitted with
snow tires or winter tires
 Activation of the Vehicle Stability
Control (VSC) system will cause opera-
tion of the steering wheel to feel
slightly different compared to that for
normal conditions.
 It is always important to reduce
speed when approaching a corner,
even if the vehicle is equipped with
Vehicle Stability Control (VSC) system.
 Always turn off th e engine before
replacing a tire as failure to do so may
render the Vehicle Stability Control
(VSC) system unable to operate
correctly.
■
TRAC System
The TRAC system is designed to prevent
spinning of the driving wheels on slippery
road surfaces, thereby helping to maintain
traction and directional control. Activation
of this function is indicated by flashing of
the Vehicle Stability Control (VSC) opera-
tion indicator light. The TRAC system is
also equipped with the brake LSD func-
tion.
WARNING
 Driving with the brake system
warning light on is dangerous.
This indicates your brake system
may not be working properly. If
the light remains on, have the
brakes inspected by a SUBARU
dealer immediately.If at all in doubt about whether the
brakes are operating properly, do
not drive the vehicle. Have your
vehicle towed to the nearest
SUBARU dealer for repair.

Disabling the TRAC System
If the vehicle gets stuck in mud, dirt or
snow, the TRAC system may reduce
power from the engine to the wheels.
Pressing “ ” to turn the system off
may make it easier for you to rock the
vehicle in order to free it. In this case, the
brake LSD function remains on. To turn
the TRAC system off, quickly press and
release the button. The TRAC OFF indi-
cator light will come on. Press the button
again to turn the system back on. Press the Vehicle St
ability Control (VSC)
OFF switch to deactivate the TRAC
system. Creating adequate driving wheel
slip by deactivating the TRAC system may
help to recover from the loss of traction.
Use the Vehicle Stability Control (VSC)
OFF switch as necessary.
 A standing start on a steeply sloping
road with a snowy, gravel-covered, or
otherwise slippery surface
 Extrication of the vehicle when its
wheels are stuck in mud or deep snow ▼
Turning Off both
Vehicle Stability
Control (VSC) and TRAC Systems
To turn the Vehicle Stability Control (VSC)
systems and TRAC system off, press and
hold “ ” for more than 3 seconds
while the vehicle is stopped. The TRAC
OFF indicator light and the Vehicle
Stability Control (VSC) OFF indicator light
will come on. Howeve r, on vehicles with
an automatic transmission, the brake LSD
function will remain on. Press the button
again to turn the systems back on. With
the Vehicle Stability Control (VSC) system
and TRAC system dea ctivated, traction
and stability enhanc ement offered by
Vehicle Stability Control (VSC) system
and TRAC system is unavailable. There-
fore you should not deactivate the Vehicle

Uniform Tire Quality Grading Standards
407
Consumer Information and Reporting Safety Defects13
All passenger car tires must
conform to Federal Safety Require-
ments in addition to these grades.■TREADWEARThe treadwear grade is a compara-
tive rating based on the wear rate of
the tire when tested under
controlled conditions on a specified
government test course.
For example, a tire graded 150
would wear one and one-half (1-1/2)
times as well on the government
course as a tire graded 100. The
relative performance of tires
depends upon the actual conditions
of their use, however, and may
depart significantly from the norm
due to variations in driving habits,
service practices and differences in
road characteristics and climate.■TRACTION AA, A, B, CThe traction grades, from highest to
lowest, are AA, A, B and C. Those
grades represent the tire’s ability to
stop on wet pavement as measured
under controlled conditions on specified government test surfaces
of asphalt and concrete. A tire
marked C may have poor traction
performance.
■
TEMPERATURE A, B, CThe temperature grades are A (the
highest), B, and C, representing the
tire’s resistance to the generation of
heat and its ability to dissipate heat
when tested under controlled condi-
tions on a specified indoor labora-
tory test wheel. Sustained high
temperature can cause the material
of the tire to degenerate and reduce
tire life, and excessive temperature
can lead to sudden tire failure. The
grade C corresponds to a level of
performance which all passenger car tires must meet under the
Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Stan-
dard No. 109. Grades B and A
represent higher levels of perfor-
mance on the laboratory test wheel
than the minimum required by law.
WARNING
The traction grade assigned to
this tire is based on straight-
ahead braking traction tests,
and does not include accelera-
tion, cornering, hydroplaning,
or peak traction characteris-
tics.
WARNING
The temperature grade for this
tire is established for a tire that
is properly inflated and not
overloaded. Excessive speed,
underinflation, or excessive
loading, either separately or in
combination, can cause heat
buildup and possible tire fail-
ure.
