AUTO START–STOP(if equipped)
The Auto Start-Stop system is designed to automatically stop and
restart the engine when the vehicle is stationary for a short period of
time after the engine has warmed up (while waiting for a traffic light
or in a traffic jam, for example). The system operates in order to
reduce fuel consumption, exhaust emissions, and undesired idling
noise. You can learn more about using the Auto Start-Stop system
from the how-to video linked in the QR code and from the sections
below.
Auto Start-Stop System
ON/OFF
If the Auto Start-Stop OFF switch

Auto Start-Stop system will reactivate, and the Auto Start-Stop indicator light
will turn off.

System Operation
So that it can be used safely and comfortably, the Auto Start-Stop system is designed to
constantly monitor vehicle conditions, the environment inside and outside the vehicle, as
well as driver operations, in order to control stopping and restarting the engine.
After the vehicle has been completely stopped by depressing the brake pedal
with the select lever in the “D” position, the engine will be automatically
stopped and the green indicator will illuminate in the combination meter.
If you release the brake pedal with the select lever kept in the “D” position, the
engine will be automatically restarted. The indicator light will turn off when the system
restarts the engine.
There are several operating conditions for this system to operate as intended.
For more information, please refer to “Starting and Operating” in your Owner’s
Manual.
Auto Start-Stop Screen
You can use the “i/Set” and arrow switches to
display the Auto Start-Stop Screen in the
Combination Meter Display (CMD), showing
how much time the engine was off in the top
line and the amount of fuel saved in the
bottom line. Displayed are the total stop time
and fuel saved since the trip meter was reset.
No Activity Detected Indicator Light
If the operational conditions are not met when the vehicle is stopped, the
engine will not stop and the white Auto Start-Stop No Activity Detected
indicator light will illuminate. It will turn off when the brake pedal is released.
Auto Start-Stop Warning Light
The Auto Start-Stop warning light will illuminate in yellow when initially turning
the ignition switch to the “ON” position. The light will turn off after the engine
has started.
NOTE: If the Auto Start-Stop warning light does not turn off after the engine
has started or is flashing, the Auto Start-Stop system may be malfunctioning. We
recommend that you contact your authorized SUBARU retailer for an inspection.
