Safety Precautions When Driving■ Seatbelt and SRS Airbag
For instructions and precautions, carefully
read the following sections.
For the seatbelt syst em, refer to "Seat-
belts" P39.
For the SRS airbag system, refer to
"SRS Airbag (Supplemental Restraint
System Airbag)" P60.

WARNING
CAUTION
Read these instructions care-
fully
Wear eye protection
Battery fluid contains sulfuric
acid
Keep children away
Keep flames away
Prevent explosions
WARNING
All persons in the vehicle must
fasten their seatbelts BEFORE
the vehicle starts to move. Other-
wise, the possibility of serious
injury becomes greater in the
event of a sudden stop or acci-
dent. To obtain maximum protection in
the event of an accident, the
driver and all passengers must
always wear seatbelts when in
the vehicle. The SRS (Supple-
mental Restraint System) airbag
does not do away with the need to
fasten seatbelts. In combination
with the seatbelts, it offers the
best combined protection in case
of a serious accident.
Not wearing a seatbelt increases
the chance of severe injury or
death in a crash even when the
vehicle has the SRS airbag.
The SRS airbags deploy with
considerable speed and force.
Occupants who are out of the
proper position when the SRS
airbag deploys could suffer very
serious injuries. Because the
SRS airbag needs enough space
for deployment, the driver should
always sit upright and well back
in the seat as far from the steering
wheel as practical while still
maintaining full vehicle control
and the front passenger should
move the seat as far back as
possible and sit upright and well
back in the seat.

Safety Precautions When Driving
8Drunken driving is one of the most
frequent causes of accidents. Since
alcohol affects all people differently, you
may have consumed too much alcohol to
drive safely even if the level of alcohol in
your blood is below the legal limit. The
safest thing you can do is never drink and
drive. However if you have no choice but
to drive, stop drinking and sober up
completely before getting behind the
wheel.■ Drugs and DrivingIf you are taking any drugs, check with
your doctor or pharmacist or read the liter-
ature that accompanies the medication to
determine if the drug you are taking can
impair your driving ability. Do not drive
after taking any medications that can
make you drowsy or otherwise affect your ability to safely operate a motor vehicle. If
you have a medical condition that requires
you to take drugs, please consult with
your doctor.
Never drive if you are under the influence
of any illicit mind-altering drugs. For your
own health and well-being, we urge you
not to take illegal drugs in the first place
and to seek treatment if you are addicted
to those drugs.
■ Driving When Tired or SleepyPlease do not continue to drive but
instead find a safe place to rest if you are
tired or sleepy. On long trips, you should
make periodic rest stops to refresh your-
self before continuing on your journey.
When possible, you should share the
driving with others.
■ Modification of Your Vehicle
WARNING
There are some drugs (over the
counter and prescription) that can
delay your reaction time and impair
your perception, judgment and
attentiveness. If you drive after tak-
ing them, it may increase your, your
passengers’ and other persons’ risk
of being involved in a serious or
fatal accident.
WARNING
When you are tired or sleepy, your
reaction will be delayed and your
perception, judgment and attentive-
ness will be impaired. If you drive
when tired or sleepy, your, your pas-
sengers’ and other persons’
chances of being involved in a seri-
ous accident may increase.
WARNING
Do not remove the genuine
SUBARU audio system. Doing so
could cause the following func-
tions to be inoperable. Combination meter display (color
TFT) Rear view image and help linesVehicle settingsClock
CAUTION
Your vehicle should not be modified
other than with genuine SUBARU
parts and accessories. Other types
of modifications could affect its per-
formance, safety or durability, and
may even violate governmental reg-
ulations. In addition, damage or per-
formance problems resulting from
modification may not be covered
under warranties.

Safety Precautions When Driving
9
Introduction
– CONTINUED –
■Use of Cell Phones/Texting
and Driving■Driving Vehicles Equipped
with Audio System
■Driving with PetsUnrestrained pets can interfere with your
driving and distract your attention from
driving. In a collision or sudden stop, unre-
strained pets or cages can be thrown
around inside the vehicle and hurt you or
your passengers. Besides, the pets can
be hurt under these situations. It is also for
their own safety that pets should be prop-
erly restrained in your vehicle. Restrain a
pet with a special traveling harness which
can be secured to the rear seat with a
seatbelt or use a pet carrier which can be
secured to the rear seat by routing a
seatbelt through the carrier’s handle.
Never restrain pets or pet carriers in the
front passenger’s seat. For further infor-
mation, consult your veterinarian, local
animal protection society or pet shop.■ Tire PressuresCheck and, if necessary, adjust the pres-
sure of each tire and the spare (if
equipped) at least once a month and
before any long journey.
Check the tire pressure when the tires are
cold. Use a pressure gauge to adjust the
tire pressures to the values shown on the
tire inflation pressure label. For detailed
information, refer to "Tires and Wheels"
P358.
■ Attaching Accessories
CAUTION
Do not talk on a cell phone or text
while driving; it may distract your
attention from driving and lead to
an accident. If you use a cell phone
to talk or text, fi rst pull off the road
and park in a safe place. In some
States/Provinces, it may be lawful to
talk on a phone while driving, but
only if the phone is hands-free.
WARNING
Do not allow the monitor to distract
your attention from driving. Also,
do not operate the controls of the
audio system while driving. The
loss of attention to driving could
lead to an accident. If you wish to
operate the controls of the audio
system, first take the vehicle off the
road and stop it in a safe location.
WARNING
Driving at high speeds with
excessively low tire pressures
can cause the tires to deform
severely and to rapidly
become hot. A sharp increase
in temperature could cause
tread separation, and destruc-
tion of the tires. The resulting
loss of vehicle control could
lead to an accident.
WARNING
Do not attach any accessories,
labels or sticke rs (other than
properly placed inspection
stickers) to the windshield. Such
items may obstruct your view. If it is necessary to attach an
accessory (such as an electronic
toll collection (ETC) device or
security pass) to the windshield,
consult your SUBARU dealer for
details on the proper location.

Front Seats
301-1. Front Seats
WARNING
Never adjust the seat while
driving, as personal injury or loss
of vehicle control may occur. Before adjusting the seat, ensure
nothing is blocking the adjusting
mechanism. After adjusting the seat, move it
back and forth to ensure the seat
is securely locked. If it is not, it
may move suddenly or the
seatbelt may not operate prop-
erly. Do not put objects under the front
seats. They may interfere with
front seat locking mechanism
and cause an accident.
Seatbelts provide maximum
restraint when the occupant sits
back and upright in the seat. To
reduce the risk of sliding under
the seatbelt in a collision, the
front seatbacks should always be
used in the upright position while
the vehicle is running. If the front
seatbacks are not in the upright
position and a collision occurs,
the risk of sliding under the lap
belt and of the lap belt sliding up
over the abdomen will increase,
and both can result in serious
injury or death. The SRS airbags deploy with
considerable speed and force.
Occupants who are not sitting
back and upright when the SRS
airbag deploys could suffer
serious injury. Because the SRS
airbag needs enough space for
deployment, the driver should
always sit upright and well back
in the seat as far from the steering
wheel as practical while still
maintaining full vehicle control,
and the front passenger should
move the seat as far back as
possible and sit upright and well
back in the seat.

Seatbelts
42▼Front seatbelt guide
To enable the seatbelt to be easily
extended, pass the seatbelt through the
guide. When getting in or out of the rear
seats, release the seatbelt from the guide. ▼
Front seatbelts
1. Adjust the seat position:
Driver’s seat: Adjust the seatback to the
upright position. Move the seat as far from
the steering wheel as practical while still
maintaining full vehicle control.
Front passenger’s seat: Adjust the
seatback to the upright position. Move the
seat as far back as possible.
2. Sit well back in the seat.
3. Pick up the tongue plate and pull the
belt out slowly. Do not let it get twisted.
If the belt stops before reaching the
buckle, return the belt slightly and pull
it out more slowly.
If the belt still cannot be unlocked,
let the belt retract slightly after giving it
a strong pull, then pull it out slowly
again. 4. Insert the tongue plate into the buckle
until you hear a click.
5. To tighten the lap part, pull up on the
shoulder belt.
6. Place the lap belt as low as possible
on the hips, not on the waist.
CAUTION
Metallic parts of the seatbelt can
become very hot in a vehicle that
has been closed up in sunny
weather; they could burn an occu-
pant. Do not touch such hot parts
until they cool.

SRS Airbag (Supplemental Restraint System Airbag)
61
Seat, Seatbelt and SRS Airbags1
– CONTINUED –
The SRS side airbags and SRS
curtain airbags are designed only
to be a supplement to the primary
protection provided by the
seatbelt. They do not eliminate
the need to fasten seatbelts. It is
also important to wear a seatbelt
to help avoid injuries that can
result when an occupant is not
seated in a proper upright posi-
tion.
100155
WARNING
The SRS airbags deploy with con-
siderable speed and force. Occu-
pants who are not seated in proper
upright position when the SRS
airbag deploys could suffer serious
injury. Because the SRS airbag
needs enough space for deploy-
ment, the driver should always sit
upright and back in the seat as far
from the steering wheel as practical
while still maintaining full vehicle
control, and the front passenger
should move the seat as far back as
possible and sit upright and well
back in the seat.
102008
WARNING
Do not sit or lean close to either
door. The SRS side airbags are
stored in both front seat
seatbacks next to the door, and
they provide protection by
deploying rapidly in the event of a
side impact collision. However,
the force of SRS side airbag
deployment can injure an occu-
pant whose body is too close to
an SRS airbag. Since your vehicle is equipped
with SRS curtain airbags, do not
sit or lean close to the door on
either side. Do not put body parts
out of the window. The SRS
curtain airbags on both sides of
the cabin are stored in the roof
side (between the front pillar and
a point behind the rear quarter
glass), and they provide protec-
tion by deploying rapidly in the
event of a side impact, rollover or
an offset frontal collision.
However, the force of its deploy-
ment can injure an occupant
whose body is too close to an
SRS airbag.
