■General Precautions
regarding SRS Airbag
System for Accessories and
Any Objects
102683102218
WARNING
Do not put any objects (including
straps or cord) over the steering
wheel pad, column cover, or
dashboard.
- These objects could be entan- gled with the steering wheel,
preventing the SRS frontal
airbag, etc. from operating
properly.- If the SRS frontal airbag
deploys, these objects could
be propelled inside the
vehicle, causing injury.
 Do not put any objects under the
driver’s side of the instrument
panel. If the SRS knee airbag
deploys, those objects could
interfere with its proper operation
and could be propelled inside the
vehicle, causing injury.
WARNING
Do not attach accessories to the
windshield, or fit an extra-wide mir-
ror over the inside rear view mirror.
If the SRS airbag deploys, those
objects could become projectiles
that could seriously injure vehicle
occupants.

7-19. Rear View CameraA rear view camera is attached to the
trunk lid. When the ignition switch is in the
“ON” position and the shift lever (MT
models) or select lever (AT models) is set
to “R”, the rear view camera automatically
displays the rear view image behind the
vehicle on the center information display.
WARNING
 Since the rear view camera uses a
wide-angle lens, the image on the
monitor is diffe rent from the
actual view in terms of distance.
702799
 Since the range of the image on
the monitor is limited, always
check the rear view and the
surrounding area with your eyes
and mirrors, and move backward
at a slow speed. Moving back-
ward only by checking the rear
view image from the camera
could cause an accident. Do not disassemble or modify the
camera, switch or wiring. If
smoke comes out or you smell a
strange odor, stop using the rear
view camera immediately.
Contact your SUBARU dealer for
an inspection. Continued use
may result in accident, fire or
electric shock.
CAUTION
 When washing your vehicle with
a high-pressure washer, do not
allow water to touch the camera
directly. Entry of water in the
camera lens may result in
condensation, malfunction, fire
or electric shock. Since the camera is a precision
device, do not subject it to strong
impacts. Otherwise, malfunction,
fire or electric shock may occur.

264NOTEDo not wipe the camera with
alcohol, benzine or paint thinner.
Otherwise, discoloration may occur.
To remove contamination, wipe the
camera with a cloth moistened with a
diluted neutral detergent. Then wipe it
with a soft, dry cloth. 
When waxing the vehicle, be careful
not to apply the wax to the camera. If it
comes in contact with the camera,
moisten a clean cloth with a diluted
neutral detergent to remove the wax.
 The camera lens has a hard coating
to help prevent scratches. However,
when washing the vehicle or cleaning
the camera lens, be careful not to
scratch the camera lens. Do not use a
washing brush directly on the camera
lens. The image quality of the rear view
camera may deteriorate.
 Strong light shined on the camera
lens may develop vertical lines around
the light source. This is not a malfunc-
tion.
 Under the fluorescent light, the
display may flicker. However, this is
not a malfunction.
 The image of the rear view camera
may be slightly different from the
actual color of the objects.
 If there is a malfunction on the
center information display, refer to
"Malfunctions of the Center Informa-
tion Display" P327.
■ How to Use the Rear View
CameraWhen the shift lever/se lect lever is set to
“R”, the rear view camera automatically
displays the rear view image from the vehicle. When the lever is set to other

positions, the image before setting to “R”
is displayed.
1. Set the ignition switch to “ON”.
2. Set the shift lever/ select lever to “R”.
NOTEThe image of the rear view camera is
horizontally reversed as is the case
with the vehicle inside mirror or the
outside mirror.
 When “Rear Camera Delay Control”
is on, the rear view image from the rear
view camera will be displayed on the
center information display for a certain
amount of time after the shift lever (MT
models) or select lever (AT models) is
shifted from “R” to another position.
When any of the following conditions
are met, the rear view image will be
canceled: - The select lever is shifted to “P”
(AT models)
- The vehicle speed becomes
approximately 5 mph (8 km/h) or
more
- The parking brake is engaged
- 9 seconds have elapsed since
the shift lever (MT models) or select
lever (AT models) was shifted from
“R” to another position
 If mud or snow sticks to or is
frozen on the camera, you must
be very careful when removing it.
Otherwise, damage to the camera
may cause a fire or electric shock.
Pour water or lukewarm water
over the camera to remove mud
and ice, and wipe it with a soft,
dry cloth. Do not put a flame close to the
camera or wiring. Otherwise,
damage or fire may occur. When replacing the fuse, be sure
to use a fuse with the specified
rating. Use of a fuse with a
different rating may result in a
malfunction. If you use the rear view camera
for a long time wh ile the engine is
not operated, the battery may
become completely discharged.
