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 while
gradually reducing speed.2) Slowly pull off the road to a safe
place.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.

WARNING
If the low tire pressure warning
light illuminates while driving,
never brake suddenly. Instead,
perform the following procedure.
Otherwise an accident involving
serious vehicle damage and
serious personal injury could
occur.
(1) Keep driving straight ahead
while gradually reducing
speed.(2) Slowly pull off the road to a
safe place.(3) Check the pressure for all
four tires and adjust the pres-
sure to the COLD tire pres-
sure shown on the tire
inflation pressure label on the
center pillar on the driver’s
side.
 Even when the vehicle is driven a
very short distance, the tires get
warm and their pressures
increase accordingly. Be sure to
let the tires cool thoroughly
before adjusting their pressures
to the standard values shown on
the tire inflatio n pressure label.
Refer to "Tires and Wheels"
 P358. The tire pressure moni-
toring system does not function
when the vehicle is stationary.
After adjusting the tire pressures,
increase the vehicle speed to at
least 25 mph (40 km/h) to start the
TPMS rechecking of the tire infla-
tion pressures. If the tire pres-
sures are now above the severe
low pressure threshold, the low
tire pressure warning light should
turn off a few minutes later.
If this light still illuminates while
driving after adjusting the tire
pressure, a tire may have signifi-
cant damage and a fast leak that
causes the tire to lose air rapidly.
For details, refer to "Flat Tires"
 P303.
 When a spare tire is mounted or a
wheel rim is replaced without the
original pressure sensor/trans-
mitter being transferred, the low
tire pressure warning light will
illuminate steadily after blinking
for approximately one minute.
This indicates the TPMS is unable
to monitor all fo ur road wheels.
Contact your SUBARU dealer as
soon as possible for tire and
sensor replacement and/or
system resetting.

Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) (If Equipped)
254■TPMS ScreenThis screen displays ea ch tire pressure.
Refer to "Drive Information" P153.■ Initializing the Tire Pressure
Monitoring SystemWhen setting the tire inflation pressure
above the specified level, initialize the tire
pressure monitoring system.
When the tire pressure monitoring system
is initialized, the current tire inflation pres-
sure is set as the standard pressure.
■ How to Initialize the Tire
Pressure Monitoring System
(If Equipped)1. Park the vehicle in a safe place and
turn the ignition switch to the “OFF” posi-
tion.
Initialization cannot be performed while
the vehicle is moving.
2. Adjust the tire infl ation pressure to the
specified cold tire inflation pressure level.
Refer to "Tires" P385.
Make sure to adjust the tire pressure to
the specified cold tire inflation pressure
level. The tire pre ssure monitoring system
will operate based on this pressure level.
3. Turn the ignition switch to the “ON”
position. 4. Press and hold the TPMS set switch

until the low tire pressure warning light
blinks slowly 3 times.
■ If You Press the Tire Pres -
sure Monitoring Reset
Switch AccidentallyIf initialization is perf ormed, adjust the tire
inflation pressure to the specified level
and initialize the tire pressure monitoring
system again.■ Initialization ProcedureMake sure to carry out initialization
after adjusting the tire inflation pressure.
Also, make sure the tires are cold before
carrying out initialization or tire inflation
pressure adjustment.
 If you have accidentally turned the igni-
tion switch to the “OFF” position during
initialization, it is not necessary to press
the TPMS set switch again as initialization
will restart automatically when the engine
is restarted.
 If you accidentally press the TPMS set
switch when initialization is not necessary,
adjust the tire inflation pressure to the
specified level when the tires are cold, and
conduct initialization again.

■Tire Pressure Monitoring
System (TPMS) (If Equipped)Low tire pressure warning lightThe tire pressure monitoring system
provides the driver with the warning
message indicated by sending a signal
from a sensor that is installed in each
wheel when tire pressure is severely low.
The tire pressure mo nitoring system will
activate only when the vehicle is driven.
Also, this system may not react immedi-
ately to a sudden drop in tire pressure (for
example, a blow-out caused by running
over a sharp object).

WARNING
 If the low tire pressure warning
light illuminates while driving,
never brake suddenly. Instead,
perform the following procedure.
Otherwise an accident involving
serious vehicle damage and
serious personal injury could
occur.
(1) Keep driving straight ahead

sure to the CO LD tire pres-
sure shown on the vehicle
placard on the center pillar on
the driver’s side.If this light still illuminates while
driving after adjusting the tire
pressure, a tire may have signifi-
cant 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 pos-
sible.
 When a spare tire is mounted or a
wheel rim is replaced without the
original pressure sensor/trans-
mitter being transferred, the low
tire pressure warning light will
illuminate steadily after blinking
for approximately one minute.
This indicates the TPMS is unable

Contact your SUBARU dealer as
soon as possible for tire and
sensor replacement and/or
system resetting. When a tire is repaired with liquid
sealant, the tire pressure warning
valve and transmitter may not
operate properly. If a liquid
sealant is used, contact your
nearest SUBARU dealer or other
qualified service shop as soon as
possible. Make sure to replace
the tire pressure warning valve
and transmitter when replacing
the tire. You may reuse the wheel
if there is no damage to it and if
the sealant residue is properly
cleaned off.
If the light illuminates steadily
after blinking for approximately
one minute, promptly contact a
SUBARU dealer to have the sys-
tem inspected.

(5.6°C) between the temperature in the
garage and the temperature outside. By
way of example, the following table shows
the required tire pressures that corre-
spond to various outside temperatures
when the temperature in the garage is
60°F (15.6°C).
Example:
Tire size: 215/40R18 85Y
Standard tire pressures:
Front: 35 psi (240 kPa, 2.4 kgf/cm
2)
Rear: 35 psi (240 kPa, 2.4 kgf/cm2)
Garage temperature: 60°F (15.6°C)
Example:
Tire size: 215/45R17 87W
Standard tire pressures:
Front: 35 psi (240 kPa, 2.4 kgf/cm2)
Rear: 35 psi (240 kPa, 2.4 kgf/cm2)
Garage temperature: 60°F (15.6°C) If the low tire pressure warning light illumi-
nates when you drive the vehicle in cold

outside air after adjusting the tire pres-
sures in a warm garage, re-adjust the tire
pressures using the method described
above. Then, increase the vehicle speed
to at least 25mph (40km/h) and check to
see that the low tire pressure warning light
goes off a few minutes later. If the low tire
pressure warning light does not go off, the
tire pressure monito ring system may not
be functioning normally. In this event, go
to a SUBARU dealer to have the system
inspected as soon as possible.
While the vehicle is driven, friction
between tires and the road surface
causes the tires to warm up. After illumi-
nation of the low tire pressure warning
light, any increase in the tire pressures
caused by an increase in the outside air
temperature or by an increase in the
temperature in the tires can cause the low
tire pressure warning light to go off. System resetting is
necessary when the
wheels are changed (for example, a
switch to snow tires) and new TPMS
valves are installed on the newly fitted
wheels. Have this work performed by a
SUBARU dealer following wheel replace-
ment.
It may not be possible to install TPMS
valves on certain wheels that are on the
market. Therefore, if you change the
wheels (for example, a switch to snow
tires), use wheels that have the same part
number as the standard-equipment
wheels. Without four operational TPMS
valve/sensors on the wheels, the TPMS
will not fully function and the warning light
in the instrument panel will illuminate
steadily after blinking for approximately
one minute.
When a tire is replaced, adjustments are
necessary to ensure continued normal
operation of the tire pressure monitoring
system. As with wheel replacement,
therefore, you s hould have the work
performed by a SUBARU dealer.

■Tire InspectionCheck on a daily basis that the tires
are free from serious damage, nails,
and stones. At the same time, check
the tires for abnormal wear.
Contact your SUBARU dealer
immediately if you find any problem.NOTE When the wheels and tires
strike curbs or are subjected to
harsh treatment as when the
vehicle is driven on a rough surface, they can suffer damage

that cannot be seen with the
naked eye. This type of damage
does not become evident until
time has passed. Try not to drive
over curbs, potholes or on other
rough surfaces. If doing so is
unavoidable, keep the vehicle’s
speed down to a walking pace or
less, and approach the curbs as
squarely as possible. Also, make
sure the tires are not pressed
against the curb when you park
the vehicle.
 If you feel unusual vibration
while driving or fi nd it difficult to
steer the vehicle in a straight line,
one of the tires and/or wheels
may be damaged. Drive slowly to
the nearest authorized SUBARU
dealer and have the vehicle
inspected.
 Tires should be replaced if:
– You have tire damage such
as cuts, splits, cracks deep
enough to expose the fabric or
bulges indicating internal
damage
WARNING
If the low tire pressure warning light
does not illuminate briefly after the
ignition switch is turned ON or the
light illuminates steadily after blink-
ing for approximately one minute,
you should have your Tire Pressure
Monitoring System checked at a
SUBARU dealer as so on as possi-
ble.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 while
gradually reducing speed.2) Slowly pull off the road to a safe
place.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 ai r rapidly. If you
have a flat tire, re fer to "Flat Tires"
 P303.
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.
