SI-DRIVE(if equipped)
Subaru Intelligent Drive (SI-Drive) has
2 modes: Intelligent (I) and Sport Sharp (S#).
Each mode is designed for different types of
driving:
Intelligent:
The Intelligent (I) mode provides well balanced
performance with greater fuel efficiency and
smooth driveability without stress. Power
delivery is moderate during acceleration for maximum fuel efficiency.
Sport Sharp:
The Sport Sharp (S#) mode offers an exhilarating level of engine performance and control.
The throttle becomes more responsive regardless of the engine speed. Delivering
maximum driving enjoyment, this mode is ideal for driving on twisting roads and for
merging or overtaking other vehicles on the freeway with confidence.
AUTO START–STOP
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 (while waiting for a traffic light or in a traffic jam) after the
engine has warmed up. 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
The Auto Start-Stop system can be turned on
and off in the Center Information Display (CID)
by using the Auto Start-Stop button on the
Home screen.
NOTE: The system will default to ON after the
vehicle has been shut off.
When the Auto Start-Stop system is turned OFF, the Auto Start-Stop OFF
indicator light in the combination meter display will illuminate. This is a solid
yellow indicator.
System Operation
So that it can be used safely and comfortably, in addition to driver operations, the Auto
Start-Stop system is designed to constantly monitor the vehicle conditions as well as the
environment inside and outside the vehicle, in order to control stopping and restarting of
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. When you release
the brake pedal with the select lever kept in the “D” position, the engine will be
automatically restarted.
If the engine is temporarily stopped by the system, the Auto Start-Stop
indicator light on the combination meter will illuminate in green. This indicator
light will turn off when the system restarts the engine.
Auto Vehicle Hold (AVH) also integrates seamlessly with Auto Start-Stop
functions. With AVH, the parking brake automatically applies, so you can sit without your
foot on the brake pedal. To restart the engine, just gently press down on the accelerator
pedal.
There are several operating conditions for this system to operate as intended. Please refer
to “Starting and Operating” in your Owner’s Manual for further information.

Auto Start-Stop Screen
Approximate indications of the time that the
engine has been stopped by the Auto
Start-Stop System and the amount of fuel

reset of the currently displayed trip meter.
No Activity Detected Indicator Light

engine will not stop and the Auto Start-Stop No Activity Detected indicator
light will illuminate. This indicator is solid white when illuminated. It will turn off

the ignition switch to the “ON” position. The light will turn off after the engine

yellow after the engine has started, the Auto Start-Stop system may be malfunctioning. We
recommend that you contact your authorized SUBARU Retailer for an inspection.

Pre-Collision Braking
This function helps prevent or minimize a
frontal collision with another vehicle,
pedestrian, or other objects by providing
visual and audible warnings. Warnings are
displayed in the Combination Meter Display
(CMD) with audible beeps. If you take no
corrective action, the system automatically
reduces engine power and applies the brakes
with increasing force to help prevent or
minimize the collision.
This system can be turned on or off in the
Center Information Display (CID) (see
page 101).
Pre-Collision Brake Assist
This function activates when the Pre-Collision Braking System is activated, the system
determines that there is a high risk of collision with an obstacle in front, and you apply the
brakes. The function assists by applying additional pressure to the braking system to
decrease stopping distance.
This system can be turned on or off in the Center information Display (CID) (see page 101).
Pre-Collision Throttle Management
This function is designed to help prevent you from unintentionally accelerating into a
stopped vehicle or other obstacle by reducing engine power. Warnings are displayed in the
Combination Meter Display (CMD) with audible beeps.
Pre-Collision Throttle Management is helpful when:
• You unintentionally place the select lever in the “D” position instead of the “R” position
and start to accelerate toward a parked car, wall or parking structure.
• While you are at a stop, the vehicle ahead of you accelerates, but then suddenly slows
down or stops as you begin to accelerate.
This system can be turned on or off in the Center Information Display (CID) (see page 101).
