WARNING
■When folding the rear seatbacks down
Observe the following precautions. Failure to do so may result in death or
serious injury.
●Do not fold the seatbacks down while driving.
●Stop the vehicle on level ground, set the parking brake and shift the select
lever to P (automatic transmission) or shift lever to neutral (manual trans-
mission).
●Do not allow anyone to sit on a folded seatback or in the trunk while driv-
ing.
●Do not allow children to enter the trunk.
■After returning the rear seatback to the upright position
Observe the following precautions. Failure to do so may result in death or
serious injury.
●Check that the seatbelts are not twisted or caught in the seatback.
■Before using the rear seatbelts
●Make sure that the seatback is securely
locked in position by lightly pushing it
back and forth.
If the seatback is not securely locked,
the red portion of the seatback lock
indicator will be visible. Make sure that
the red portion is not visible.
●Always make sure that the seatbelt is
not caught in the seatback or twisted in
one of the hooks that secure the seat-
back. Failure to do so may cause the
seatbelt to not be fastened correctly or
to become ineffective in a collision,
resulting in serious injury.

100 1-7. Safety information
If the seatbelt buckle switch and/or front passenger’s occupant detection
system have failed, the SRS airbag system warning light will illuminate.
Have the system inspected by your SUBARU dealer immediately if the SRS
airbag system warning light illuminates.
If your vehicle has sustained impact, this may affect the proper function of
the SUBARU advanced frontal airbag system. Have your vehicle inspected
at your SUBARU dealer. Do not use the front passenger’s seat while driving
the vehicle to your SUBARU dealer.
NOTE
The front passenger’s SRS side airbag and SRS curtain airbag are not con-
trolled by the SUBARU advanced frontal airbag system.
■Passenger’s frontal airbag ON and OFF indicators
oP. 129
■Occupant detection system
The occupant detection system sensor is installed under the seat upholstery
and monitors the physique and posture of the front passenger. Using this
information, the occupant detection system determines whether the front
passenger’s SRS frontal airbag should be deployed or not.
If the front passenger’s seat cushion is wet, this may adversely affect the
ability of the system to determine deployment. If the seat cushion is wet, the
front passenger should stop sitting on the front passenger’s seat. Wipe off
liquid from the seat immediately, let the seat dry naturally and then check the
SRS airbag system warning light as follows.
●If the SRS airbag system warning light illuminates, keep the seat dry until
the warning light turns off. If the SRS airbag system warning light stays
on even when the seat has dried, do not allow anyone to sit on the front
passenger’s seat and have the system checked by your SUBARU dealer.
●If the SRS airbag system warning light does not illuminate, check that the
front passenger’s frontal airbag ON and OFF indicators work properly. If
the indicators do not work properly, do not allow anyone to sit on the front
passenger’s seat and have the system checked by your SUBARU dealer.

Before driving
Also, if luggage or electronic devices are placed on the front passenger’s
seat, this may adversely affect the ability of the system to determine deploy-
ment. This may prevent the front passenger’s frontal airbag ON and OFF
indicators from working properly. Check that the indicators work properly.
When the OFF indicator turns off and the ON indicator illuminates, the front
passenger’s frontal airbag may deploy during a collision. Remove luggage
and electronic devices from the front passenger’s seat.
NOTE
This device complies with Part 18 of the FCC Rules. This device may cause
interference. If this device causes interference, consult the nearest SUBARU
dealer. Also, for maintenance of the system, consult the nearest SUBARU
dealer.
■Conditions in which front passenger’s SRS frontal airbag is not acti-
vated
The front passenger’s SRS frontal airbag will not be activated when any of
the following conditions are met regarding the front passenger’s seat:
●The seat is empty.
●The seat is equipped with an appropriate child restraint system and an
infant is restrained in it.
●The occupant changed their posture after the occupant load is judged.
●The front passenger’s occupant detection system is malfunctioning.
WARNING
When the front passenger’s seat is occupied by an infant in an appropriate
child restraint system, observe the following precautions. Failure to do so may
interfere with the proper operation of the occupant detection system, activating
the front passenger’s SRS frontal airbag even though that seat is occupied by
the infant in the child restraint system.
●Do not place any article (including electronic devices) on the seat other than
the infant in the child restraint system.
●Do not place more than one infant in the child restraint system.

malfunction in the seatbelt pretensioners, SRS airbag system and/or front
passenger occupant detection system. Immediately take your vehicle to your
nearest SUBARU dealer to have the system checked. Unless checked and
properly repaired, the seatbelt pretensioners, SRS airbag system and/or
front passenger occupant detection system will not operate properly in the
event of a collision, which may increase the risk of injury.
●Flashing or flickering of the warning light

1-7. Safety information
Before driving
Front passenger occupant detection system
Your vehicle is equipped with a front passenger occupant detection
system. Using the sensors installed under the seat cover, the system
detects the conditions of the front passenger seat and activates or
deactivates the frontal airbag for front passenger seat. The occupant
detection system may not inflate the front passenger’s SRS frontal
airbag even when the driver’s SRS frontal airbag deploys. This is not
a malfunction. If the seatbelt buckle switch and/or front passenger’s
occupant detection system have failed, the SRS airbag system warn-
ing light will illuminate. Have the system inspected by your SUBARU
dealer immediately if the SRS airbag system warning light illumi-
nates.
If your vehicle has sustained impact, this may affect the proper func-
tion of the SUBARU advanced frontal airbag system. Immediately
contact your SUBARU dealer and have your vehicle inspected. Do
not use the front passenger seat while driving to your SUBARU
dealer.
