EYESIGHT®OVERVIEW
Your Subaru features a variety of safety
systems that are the culmination of everything
Subaru Engineers know about safety. These
systems are referred to as “Driver Assist
Technologies” and add confidence to every
trip you and your passengers take. Working
together, these systems provide enhanced
awareness, safety, and convenience in front, to
the sides, and behind your Subaru. Subaru
Driver Assist Technologies include:
• EyeSight
®Driver Assist Technology
• Rear-Vision Camera
• Pre-Collision Braking
• Blind-Spot Detection (BSD)
• Rear Cross-Traffic Alert (RCTA)
• Reverse Automatic Braking (RAB)
• High Beam Assist (HBA)
• Steering Responsive Headlights (SRH)
OPERATION
EyeSight®is a driver assist technology that
uses dual color cameras to serve as an extra
pair of eyes on the road ahead to identify
vehicles in front, pedestrians, traffic lanes, or
other objects. If need be, the EyeSight
®
system can apply the brakes and/or reduce
engine power to help avoid or reduce the
severity of a collision. During these events, the
system will provide audible and visual alerts to
assist you in making decisions.
Since the characteristics and limitations of the
EyeSight
®color cameras are similar to human
eyes, it is important that the cameras,
windshield, and area in front of the cameras
are treated with special care. Please refer to
“Care and Limitations” on page 81 in this
Getting Started Guide for more details.

FUNCTIONS
The EyeSight®system features several distinct functions designed to provide extra
awareness, improve safety, reduce fatigue, and add peace of mind every time you drive
your Subaru. EyeSight
®functions include:
• Pre-Collision Braking
• Pre-Collision Brake Assist
• Pre-Collision Throttle Management
• Lane Departure Warning
• Lane Sway Warning
• Adaptive Cruise Control
• Conventional Cruise Control
• Lead Vehicle Start Alert
Pre-Collision Braking
This function helps prevent or minimize a
frontal collision with another vehicle,
pedestrian, or other objects by providing
visual and audible warnings. Warnings are
displayed in the Combination Meter Display
(CMD) with audible beeps. If you take no
corrective action, the system automatically
reduces engine power and applies the brakes
with increasing force to help prevent or
minimize the collision.
This system can be turned on or off in the Center
Information Display (CID) (see
page 76).
Pre-Collision Brake Assist
This function activates when the Pre-Collision Braking System is activated, the system
determines that there is a high risk of collision with an obstacle in front, and you apply the
brakes. The function assists by applying additional pressure to the braking system to
decrease stopping distance.
This system can be turned on or off by using the Pre-Collision Braking System OFF switch
(see page 76).

HIGH BEAM ASSIST (HBA)(if equipped)
This function uses the EyeSight®cameras to automatically switch
the headlights between high and low beam settings, enhancing
safety for both you and other drivers on the road. To activate High
Beam Assist, set the headlight control switch to the “AUTO”
position and push the headlight lever forward to the high beam
position and release. The green HBA indicator illuminates on the
Combination Meter.
HBA automatically activates the high beams when the forward area is dark, there are no
preceding/oncoming vehicles or sharp curves in the road, and your speed is approximately
20 mph or greater. When an preceding/oncoming vehicle is detected, the forward area is
bright, your speed decreases to 10 mph or less, or the EyeSight
®system is malfunctioning
or is temporarily stopped, HBA automatically switches to low beams.
STEERING RESPONSIVE HEADLIGHTS (SRH)
(if equipped)
The Steering Responsive Headlights (SRH) system aims the headlight beams in the
direction you are steering, improving visibility at corners and intersections when driving at
night. You can turn the SRH system on or off in the Center Information Display by selecting
“Settings”, then selecting “Car”.
REVERSE AUTOMATIC BRAKING (RAB)(if equipped)
This system uses four rear bumper mounted
sonar sensors to detect objects when moving
between 1 and 9 mph in reverse. RAB uses the
Rear-Vision Camera image to display colored
proximity alerts when an object is detected. As
an object becomes closer to the rear of your
vehicle, audible beeps provide additional
awareness in progressive levels. If RAB
determines that a collision with an object is
possible, the system can automatically apply the brakes to help prevent or minimize the
impact.

EYESIGHT®DISCLAIMER
EyeSight®is a driver assist technology which may not operate optimally under all driving
conditions. The driver is always responsible for safe and attentive driving. System
effectiveness depends on many factors such as vehicle maintenance, weather and road
conditions. See Owner’s Manual for complete details on system operations and limitations.
The Pre-Collision Braking system is designed to provide automatic braking that either
prevents a collision or reduces the severity of a frontal impact.
The Pre-Collision Throttle Management system is designed to reduce acceleration and
minimize the severity of certain frontal impacts.
Adaptive Cruise Control and Brake Light Recognition are designed to assist the driver and
are not substitutes for safe and attentive driving.
Blind-Spot Detection, Lane Change Assist and Rear Cross Traffic Alert are systems
designed to assist the driver by monitoring the rear and side areas of the vehicle during a
lane change or reversing and are not a substitute for safe and attentive driving.
The Reverse Automatic Braking System is not a substitute for safe and attentive driving.
System effectiveness depends on many factors, such as vehicle maintenance, weather
and road conditions. Always exercise caution and use vehicle mirrors and the Rear-Vision
