If the warning light exhibits any of the following conditions, there may be a
malfunction in the seatbelt pretensioners, SRS airbag system and/or front

event of a collision, which may increase the risk of injury.

184 2-1. Driving procedures
BRZ_U
WARNING
■When starting the engine
Always start the engine while sitting in the driver's seat. Do not depress the
accelerator pedal while starting the engine under any circumstances.
Doing so may cause an accident resulting in death or serious injury.
■ Caution when driving
Do not turn the engine switch to the “LOCK” position while driving. If, in an
emergency, you must turn the engine off while the vehicle is moving, turn the
engine switch only to the “ACC” position to stop the engine. An accident may
result if the engine is stopped while driving.
CAUTION
■To prevent battery discharge
Do not leave the engine switch in the “ACC” or “ON” position for long periods
of time without the engine running.
■ When starting the engine
●Do not crank the engine for more than 10 seconds at a time. This may
overheat the starter and wiring system.
If the engine does not start, turn the engine switch to the “LOCK” position
and try to start the engine again after waiting for 10 seconds or more.
● Do not race a cold engine.
● If the engine becomes difficult to start or stalls frequently, have your vehi-
cle checked by your SUBARU dealer immediately.
● Vehicles with an automatic transmission: Do not shift the select lever while
the starter is operating.

When driving

WARNING
■
When using the rear view camera
● Since the rear view camera uses a wide-angle lens, the image on the
screen will be different from the actual view in terms of distance.
● Since the range of the image displayed on the screen is limited, you
should always check the area behind the vehicle and the surrounding area
with your eyes and mirrors, and move backward at a slow speed. Moving
backward only by checking the rear view image from the rear view camera
could lead to an accident.
● Do not disassemble or modify the rear view camera, switch or wiring. If
smoke comes from any of the parts or you smell a strange odor, stop using
the rear view camera immediately. Contact your SUBARU dealer for an
inspection. Continued use may result in accident, fire or electric shock.
● Do not expose the rear view camera or wiring to an open flame as damage
or a fire may occur.
● Do not use the system if the trunk is open.

338 4-1. Maintenance and care
BRZ_U
■Caring for leather areas
SUBARU recommends cleaning the interior of the vehicle at least twice a
year to maintain the quality of the vehicle’s interior.
■ Shampooing the carpets
There are several commercial foam ing-type cleaners available. Use a
sponge or brush to apply the foam. Rub in overlapping circles. Do not apply
water. Excellent results are obtained by keeping the carpet as dry as possi-
ble.
■ Seatbelts
Clean with mild soap and lukewarm water using a cloth or sponge. Also
check the belts periodically for excessive wear, fraying or cuts.
WARNING
■Water in the vehicle
●Do not splash or spill liquid in the vehicle.
Doing so may cause electrical components etc. to malfunction or catch
fire.
● Do not get any of the SRS components or wiring in the vehicle interior wet.
(→ P. 98)
Electrical malfunction may cause the airbags to deploy or not function
properly, resulting in death or severe injury.
■ Cleaning the interior (especially instrument panel)
Do not use polish wax or polish cleaner. The instrument panel may reflect off
the windshield, obstructing the driver's view and leading to an accident,
resulting in death or serious injury.

Maintenance and care
BRZ_U
■
After a fuse is replaced
● If the lights do not turn on even after the fuse has been replaced, a bulb
may need replacement. ( →P. 400)
● If the replaced fuse blows again, have the vehicle inspected by your
SUBARU dealer.
■ If there is an overload in the circuits
The fuses are designed to blow, protecting the wiring harness from damage.
WARNING
■To prevent system breakdowns and vehicle fire
Observe the following precautions.
Failing to do so may cause damage, and possibly a fire or injury.
● Never use a fuse of a higher amperage rating than indicated, or use any
other object in place of a fuse.
● Always use a genuine SUBARU fuse or equivalent.
● Do not modify the fuse or the fuse box.
CAUTION
■Before replacing fuses
Have the cause of electrical overload determined and repaired by your
SUBARU dealer.
