the switch. To make the switch usable
again, turn the igni tion switch to the
“OFF” position and restart the engine.
 When the switch is pressed to deac-
tivate the Vehicle Stability Control
(VSC) system and TRAC system, the
vehicle’s running performance is
comparable with that of a vehicle that
does not have a Vehicle Stability
Control (VSC) system and TRAC
system. Do not deactivate the Vehicle
Stability Control (VSC) system and
TRAC system except when absolutely
necessary. 
Even when the TRAC system is
deactivated, compon ents of the brake
control system may still activate. When
the brake control system is activated,
the Vehicle Stability Control (VSC)
operation indicator light flashes.

If initialization is performed, adjust the tire
inflation pressure to the specified level
and initialize the tire pressure monitoring
system again.■
Initialization Procedure
 Make sure to carry out initialization
after adjusting the tire inflation pressure.
Also, make sure the tires are cold before
carrying out initialization or tire inflation
pressure adjustment.
 If you have accidentally turned the igni-
tion switch to the “OFF” position during
initialization, it is not necessary to press
the TPMS set switch again as initialization
will restart automatically when the engine
is restarted.
 If you accidentally press the TPMS set
switch when initializa tion is not necessary,
adjust the tire inflation pressure to the
specified level when the tires are cold, and
conduct initialization again.
■
When Initialization of the Tire
Pressure Monitoring System
has Failed
Initialization can be completed in a few
minutes. However, in the following case,
the settings have not been recorded and
the system will not operate properly. If
repeated attempts to record tire inflation
pressure settings are unsuccessful, have
the vehicle checked at your SUBARU
dealer.
 When operating the TPMS set switch,
low tire pressure warning light does not
blink 3 times.
 After carrying out the initialization
procedure, the low tire pressure warning
light blinks for 1 minute then stays on after
driving for 20 minutes.
■
Registering ID Codes
Every tire pressure warning valve and
transmitter has a unique ID code. In addi-
tion to the set of tire pressure warning
system sensor ID code s initially registered
to the vehicle, a second set of ID codes
can be registered.
A second set of tire pressure warning
system sensor ID codes can be registered
at your SUBARU dealer. When 2 sets of
ID codes have been registered, either ID
code set can be selected.■
Changing the ID code set
1. Park the vehicle in a safe place and
turn the ignition switch to the “ON” posi-
tion.
2. Press the TPMS set switch 3 times
within 3 seconds.
3. The low tire pressure warning light will
illuminate for 3 seconds and then blink 3
times.
4. The low tire pressure warning light will
blink for 1 minute and then illuminate.
5. When the ID code change has
completed, the tire pressure monitoring
light will turn off.
Check that tire pressures are displayed on
the TPMS screen.
WARNING
Do not operate the TPMS set switch
without first adjusting the tire infla-
tion pressure to the specified level.
Otherwise, the low tire pressure
warning light may not come on even
if the tire inflation pressure is low,
or it may come on when the tire
inflation pressure is actually nor-
mal.

Parking Your Vehicle
2567-16. Parking Your Vehicle■
Parking Brake
To set the parking brake, depress the
brake pedal firmly and hold it down until
the parking brake lever is fully pulled up.To release the parking brake, pull the
lever up slightly, press the release button,
then lower the lever while keeping the
button pressed.
When the parking brake is set while the
engine is running, the parking brake
warning light illuminates. After starting the
vehicle, be sure that the warning light has
turned off before the vehicle is driven.
Refer to "Brake System Warning Light"

P140.
■
Parking Tips
When parking your vehicle, always
perform the following items.
 Apply the parking brake firmly.
 For MT models, put the shift lever in the
“1” (1st) for upgrade or “R” (Reverse) for a
downgrade.
 For AT models, put the select lever in
the “P” (Park) position.
Never rely on the mechanical friction of
the transmission alone to hold the vehicle.
WARNING
 Never leave unattended children
or pets in the vehicle. They could
accidentally injure themselves or
others through inadvertent oper-
ation of the vehicle. Also, on hot
or sunny days, the temperature in
a closed vehicle could quickly
become high enough to cause
severe or possibly fatal injuries to
people.Do not park the vehicle over flam-
mable materials such as dry
grass, waste paper or rags, as
they may burn easily if they come
near hot engine or exhaust
system parts.Be sure to stop the engine if you
take a nap in the vehicle. If engine
exhaust gas enters the passenger
compartment, occupants in the
vehicle could die from carbon
monoxide (CO) contained in the
exhaust gas.
CAUTION
Never drive while the parking
brake is set because this will
cause unnecessary wear on the
brake linings. Before starting to
drive, always make sure that the
parking brake has been fully
released.
702782
The braking power of the parking
brake may not be sufficient when
stronger braking power is needed
(e.g., when parking on a steep
slope while towing a trailer).
