Rear view camera
The rear view camera is installed to the trunk lid and displays a rear
view image on the audio/navigation monitor when the engine switch
is in the “ON” position (vehicles without a keyless access with push
button start system) or the push-button ignition switch is in “ON”
mode (vehicles with a keyless access with push button start system)
and the select lever (vehicles with an automatic transmission) or
shift lever (vehicles with a manual transmission) is set to “R”.

How to use the rear view camera
Perform the following to display a rear view image on the rear view
camera. Turn the engine switch to the “ON” position (vehicles without a
keyless access with push button start system) or turn the
push-button ignition switch to “ON” mode (vehicles with a key-
less access with push button start system).
Shift the select lever (vehicles with an automatic transmis-
sion) or shift lever (vehicles with a manual transmission) to
“R”.
In the following situations, the screen will return to the image that
was displayed before the lever was shifted to “R”.
• Vehicles with an automatic transmission: When several secondshave passed since the select lever was shifted to a position other
than “P” or “R” (off delay function).
• Vehicles with an automatic transmission: When the select lever is
shifted to “P”.
• Vehicles with a manual transmission: When several seconds have passed since the shift lever was shifted to a position other than
“R” (off delay function).
• When the vehicle speed is 5 mph (8 km/h) or more.

Rear view camera display
● On vehicles with a genuine SUBARU navigation system, the rear view
camera display will be prioritized over other displays. To display another
display, shift the select lever (vehicles with an automatic transmission) or
shift lever (vehicles with a manual transmission) to a position other than
“R”.
● Images from the rear view camera will be displayed horizontally reversed
as is the case with the vehicle’s rear view mirror or a side view mirror.
● Images on the screen may look different depending on the number of
passengers and loading conditions.
● When the vehicle is on an incline or decline, distances displayed on the
screen may look different than the actual distance.
● When the vehicle is loaded, the distance on the screen will look farther
than the actual distance, as is the case when approaching an upward
incline.
● The color of objects on the screen may be different from the actual color
of the objects.
● Be sure to check your surroundings when “Check Surroundings Before
Backing Up” is displayed.
● If you shift to “R” shortly after turning the engine switch to the “ON” posi-
tion (vehicles without a keyless access with push button start system) or
the push-button ignition switch to “ON” mode (vehicles with a keyless
access with push button start system), “Check Surroundings Before
Backing Up” may not be displayed. Wait several seconds or more after
turning the engine switch to the “ON” position (vehicles without a keyless
access with push button start system) or the push-button ignition switch
to “ON” mode (vehicles with a keyless access with push button start sys-
tem) before shifting to the “R” range. The warning message can then be
displayed.

“TRACK” mode
Your vehicle is equipped with two types of control modes to accom-
modate various driving preferences. The control modes can be
selected with the “TRACK” switch. Normal mode allows secure and
smooth normal driving. When the switch is pressed and held for 1
second or more, “TRACK” mode is activated. Control characteristics
such as the Vehicle stability control (VSC) and TRAC are adjusted to
afford maneuverability closer to what a driver may desire, while a
sense of security is retained. “TRACK” mode/Normal mode
The “TRACK” indicator and Vehi-
cle stability control (VSC) off indi-
cator come on when in “TRACK”
mode.
To change back to normal mode
while in “TRACK” mode, press
or the “TRACK” switch.
Turning off both TRAC and Vehicle stability control (VSC) systems
To turn the TRAC and Vehicle stability control (VSC) systems off,

●
Check for and remove any excess ice or snow that may have
accumulated on the exterior lights, vehicle's roof, chassis,
around the tires or on the brakes.
● Remove any snow or mud from the bottom of your shoes
before getting in the vehicle.
● If a door is opened and closed when its side window is frozen,
the window safety device will operate and the side window
open/close function linked to door operation may not operate
correctly. If this occurs, perform the following after the ice has
melted.
Open the side window until it is approximately halfway open
with the door closed.
Fully close the window by pulling the switch up to the one-
touch closing position and continue holding the switch for 1
second or more after the window fully closes.
The window position is reset and the safety device operations will
be released.
■When driving the vehicle
Accelerate the vehicle slowly, keep a safe distance between you
and the vehicle ahead, and drive at a reduced speed suitable to
road conditions.
■ When parking the vehicle (in the winter time or in the cold
latitudes)
Park the vehicle and move the select lever to P (automatic trans-
mission) or shift lever to 1 or R (manual transmission) without
setting the parking brake. The parking brake may freeze up, pre-
venting it from being released. If necessary, block the wheels to
prevent inadvertent sliding or creeping.

WARNING
Observe the following precautions.
Failure to do so may cause the driver's floor mat to slip, possibly interfering
with the pedals while driving. An unexpectedly high speed may result or it may
become difficult to stop the vehicle. Th
is could lead to an accident, resulting in
death or serious injury.
■ When installing the driver's floor mat
● Do not use floor mats designed for ot her models or different model year
vehicles, even if they are SUBARU Genuine floor mats.
● Only use floor mats designed for the driver's seat.
● Always install the floor mat securely using the retaining hooks (clips) pro-
vided.
● Do not use two or more floor mats on top of each other.
● Do not place the floor mat bottom-side up or upside-down.
■ Before driving
●Check that the floor mat is securely
fixed in the correct place with all the
provided retaining hooks (clips). Be
especially careful to perform this check
after cleaning the floor.
● With the engine stopped and the select
lever in P (automatic transmission) or
shift lever in neutral (manual transmis-
sion), fully depress each pedal to the
floor to make sure it does not interfere
with the floor mat.

next to the indicator light, please

In the event that there are still
programming difficulties or ques-
tions, additional HomeLink infor-
mation and programming videos

■ Gate Operator/Canadian Programming
Canadian radio-frequency laws require transmitter remote signals
to “time-out” (or quit) after several seconds of transmission, which
may not be long enough for HomeLink to pick up the signal during
programming. Similar to this Canadian law, some U.S. gate opera-
tors are designed to “time-out” in the same manner. The indicator
LED on the hand-held remote will go off when the device times out,
indicating that it has finished transmitting.
If you live in Canada or you are having difficulties programming a
gate operator or garage door opener by using the programming
procedures, replace “Programming a New HomeLink Button”
with the following:
While the HomeLink indicator light is flashing orange, press and
release (“cycle”) your device’s hand-held remote every two sec-
onds until the HomeLink indicator light changes from orange to
green. You may now release the hand-held remote button.
If programming a garage door opener or gate operator, it is advised to
unplug the device during the “cycling” process to prevent possible over-
heating.
Proceed with “Programming a New HomeLink Button” to com-
plete.
