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 linesVehicle settingsClock
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 Pets
Unrestrained 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 Pressures
Check 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.

Seatbelt Safety Tips
102759
WARNING
All persons in the vehicle should
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.All belts should fit snugly in order
to provide full restraint. Loose
fitting belts are not as effective in
preventing or reducing injury.Each seatbelt is designed to
support only one person. Never
use a single belt for two or more
persons – even children. Other-
wise, in an accident, serious
injury or death could result.
Replace all seatbelt assemblies
including retractors and
attaching hardware worn by
occupants of a vehicle that has
been in a serious accident. Also,
be sure to replace seatbelt
assemblies that show signs of
severe fraying or having been
cut. The entire assembly should
be replaced even if damage is not
obvious.Seat children in the rear seat
properly restrained at all times.
The SRS airbag deploys with
considerable speed and force
and can injure or even kill chil-
dren, especially if they are not
restrained or improperly
restrained. Because children are
lighter and weaker than adults,
their risk of being injured from
deployment is greater. For that
reason, we strongly recommend
that ALL children (including
those in child restraint systems)
sit in the REAR seat properly
restrained at all times in a child
restraint system or in a seatbelt,
whichever is appropriate for the
child’s height and weight. Secure
ALL types of child restraint
systems in the REAR seats at all
times.

Seatbelt Pretensioners
44Inspect the seatbelts and attachments
including the webbing and all hardware
periodically for cracks, cuts, gashes,
tears, damage, loose bolts or worn areas.
Replace the seatbelts even if only minor
damage is found.
1-5. Seatbelt PretensionersThe following seatbelts have a seatbelt
pretensioner.
Driver’s seatbelt
 Front passenger’s seatbelt
The seatbelt preten sioners are designed
to be activated in the event of an accident
involving a moderate to severe frontal and
side collision and rollover accident.
NOTE Seatbelt pretensioners are not
designed to activate in minor impacts
or in rear impacts.
 Pretensioners are designed to func-
tion on a one-time-o nly basis. In the
event that a pretensioner is activated,
both the driver’s and front passenger’s
seatbelt retractor assemblies should
be replaced only by an authorized
SUBARU dealer. When replacing
seatbelt retractor assemblies, use only
genuine SUBARU parts.
 If a seatbelt that has a seatbelt
pretensioner does not retract or cannot
be pulled out due to a malfunction or
activation of the pretensioner, contact
your SUBARU dealer as soon as
possible.
 If the seatbelt retractor assembly or
surrounding area has been damaged,
contact your SUBARU dealer as soon
as possible.
CAUTION
 Keep the belts free of polishes,
oils, chemicals and particularly
battery acid.Never attempt to make modifica-
tions or changes that will prevent
the seatbelt from operating prop-
erly.
WARNING
To obtain maximum protection,
the occupants should sit in an
upright position with their
seatbelts properly fastened.
Refer to "Seatbelts" 
P39.
Do not modify, remove or strike
the seatbelt retractor assemblies
equipped with seatbelt
pretensioners or surrounding
area. This could result in acci-
dental activation of the seatbelt
pretensioners or could make the
system inoperative, possibly
resulting in serious injury. Seat-
belt pretensioners have no user-
serviceable parts. For required
servicing of seatbelt retractors
equipped with seatbelt
pretensioners, consult your
SUBARU dealer.
When discarding seatbelt
retractor assemblies equipped
with seatbelt pretensioners or
scrapping the entire vehicle due
to collision damage or for other
reasons, consult your SUBARU
dealer.

Seatbelt Pretensioners

Seat, Seatbelt and SRS Airbags1
– CONTINUED –
When you sell your vehicle, we urge
you to inform the bu yer that the vehicle
is equipped with seatbelt
pretensioners. Also, notify the buyer of
the contents in this section.■
Front passenger’s seatbelt
with Shoulder Belt Preten-
sioner
The pretensioner sensor also serves as
follows.
 Front impact sensor
 Side impact sensor
 Door impact sensor
 Rollover sensor
If the sensor detects a certain predeter-
mined amount of force during frontal or
side collisions or rollover accidents, any seatbelt that has a se
atbelt pretensioner is
quickly drawn back in by the retractor to
take up the slack so that the belt more
effectively restrains the seat occupant.
The front passenger’s seatbelt
pretensioner includes a tension reducing
device which limits the peak forces
exerted by the seatbelt on the occupant in
the event of a collisi on. The adaptive force
limiter will select a reducing load to suit the
body size of the occupant as detected by
the occupant detection sensor.
When a seatbelt pretensioner is activated,
an operating noise will be heard and a
small amount of smoke will be released.
These occurrences are normal and not
harmful. This smoke does not indicate a
fire in the vehicle.
Once the seatbelt pretensioner has been
activated, the seatbelt retractor remains
locked. Consequently, the seatbelt can
not be pulled out and retracted and there-
fore must be replaced.

System Monitors
A diagnostic system continually monitors
the readiness of the seatbelt pretensioner
with the ignition switch in the “ON” posi-
tion. The seatbelt pr etensioners share the
control module with the SRS airbag
system. Therefore, if any malfunction
occurs in a seatbelt pretensioner, the SRS airbag system warning light will illuminate.
For details, refer to "SRS Airbag System
Monitors"
P87.

System Servicing
100121
WARNING
 When discarding a seatbelt
retractor assembly or scrapping
the entire vehicle damaged by a
collision, consult your SUBARU
dealer.Tampering with or disconnecting
the system’s wiring could result
in accidental activation of the
seatbelt pretensioner and/or SRS
airbag or could make the system
inoperative, which may result in
serious injury. Do not use elec-
trical test equipment on any
circuit related to the seatbelt
pretensioner and SRS airbag
systems. For required servicing
of the seatbelt pretensioner,
consult your nearest SUBARU
dealer.
CAUTION
For the locations of the sensors and
control modules, refer to "Compo-
nents" 
P67.
