■If the passenger’s frontal airbag OFF indicator illuminates and the ON
indicator turns off even when the front passenger’s seat is occupied by
an adult
This can be caused by the adult incorrectly sitting in the front passenger’s
seat. Turn the ignition switch to the “LOCK” position (vehicles without a key-
less access with push button start system), or turn the push-button ignition
switch off (vehicles with a keyless access with push button start system).
Ask the front passenger to set the seatback to the upright position, sit up
straight in the center of the seat cushion, correctly fasten the seatbelt, posi-
tion his/her legs out forward, and adjust the seat to the rearmost position.
Turn the ignition switch to the “ON” position (vehicles without a keyless
access with push button start system), or turn the push-button ignition switch
to the “ON” mode (vehicles with a keyless access with push button start sys-
tem). If the OFF indicator remains illuminated while the ON indicator remains
off, take the following actions.
●Vehicles without a keyless access with push button start system:
Turn the ignition switch to the “LOCK” position.
Vehicles with a keyless access with push button start system:
Turn the push-button ignition switch off.
● Make sure that the front passenger does not use a blanket, seat cushion,
seat cover, seat heater or massager, etc.
● If wearing excessive layers of clothing, the front passenger should
remove any unnecessary items before sitting in the front passenger’s
seat, or should sit in a rear seat.
● Next, turn the ignition switch to the “ON” position and wait 6 seconds to
allow the system to complete self-checking. Following the system check,
both indicators turn off for 2 seconds. Now, the ON indicator should illu-
minate while the OFF indicator remains off.
If the OFF indicator still remains illuminated while the ON indicator remains
off, ask the occupant to move to the rear seat and immediately contact your
SUBARU dealer for an inspection.

WARNING
■
Burns
● Use caution when seating the following persons in a seat with the seat
heater on to avoid the possibility of burns:
• Babies, small children, the elderly, the sick and the physically chal-
lenged
• Persons with sensitive skin
• Persons who are fatigued
• Persons who have taken alcohol or drugs that induce sleep (sleeping drugs, cold remedies, etc.)
● Do not cover the seat with anything when using the seat heater.
Using the seat heater with a blanket or cushion increases the temperature
of the seat and may lead to overheating.
● Do not use the seat heater more than necessary. Doing so may cause
minor burns or overheating.
CAUTION
■To prevent seat heater damage
Do not put heavy objects that have an uneven surface on the seat and do
not stick sharp objects (needles, nails, etc.) into the seat.
■ To prevent battery discharge
Turn the seat heaters off when the engine is not running.

CAUTION
■
Cleaning the inside of the rear window
● Be careful not to scratch or damage the heater wires.
● Do not use glass cleaner to clean the rear window, as this may cause
damage to the rear window defogger heater wires. Use a cloth dampened
with lukewarm water to gently wipe the window clean. Wipe the window in
strokes running parallel to the heater wires.
■ When cleaning the instrument panel
When small grains of sand and so forth have gotten into instrument panel’s
surface and cannot be wiped away using a cloth, use a clay bar without add-
ing water. Forcibly trying to wipe the surface clean with a brush or sponge
may scratch the surface or fragments of the cloth may be left in the surface.
