SUBARU CROSSTREK 2021 Getting Started Guide

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 three 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.
In some cases, such as connecting a trailer, it may be helpful to temporarily turn the
system off. RAB can be turned off using the Touchscreen buttons on the lower corners
when the select lever is in the “R” position.
Select and hold the “RAB ON” button in the lower part of the Touchscreen
until it changes to “RAB OFF” to disable the automatic braking functions of
the RAB system.
Select and hold the “P))) ON” button in the lower part of the Touchscreen until
it changes to “P))) OFF” to disable the audible beeping of the RAB system.

STEREO CAMERA PRECAUTIONS
Your EyeSight®stereo cameras are precision components that must be kept free from
obstruction and contamination, such as fingerprints or cleaning solutions. When the
system detects that the stereo camera lenses are impaired, a malfunction indicator will be
displayed and EyeSight
®functions will not be available.
When you are in the vicinity of the EyeSight
®stereo cameras, always observe the following
precautions:
• Do not touch or attempt to clean the EyeSight
®camera lenses inside the vehicle. Extra
caution should be used when cleaning the inside of the windshield. Over-spray from
cleaning solutions may impair or even damage the camera lenses. Please inform others
who may attempt to clean the windshield, such as car wash staff, of this precaution.
• Electronic Toll Collection devices, such as EZPass
TM, must be installed in an area that
does not obstruct the stereo cameras' field of vision. See "Prohibited Area" on page 91.
• Adjust the rearview mirror so it does not obstruct the stereo cameras' field of vision.
• Do not install any interior rearview mirror accessories, such as a wide-type mirror or
hanging objects. Only approved Genuine SUBARU accessories may be installed.
For more detailed information, please refer to your EyeSight
®Owner’s Manual.
WINDSHIELD GLASS AND DASHBOARD
Since the characteristics of the EyeSight®stereo cameras are similar to human limitations,
it is important that the area in front of the cameras be kept free from dirt, scratches,
cracks, fogging, or accessories mounted to the windshield, hood or dashboard. Visual
impairments or reflections can affect EyeSight
®system performance. Extra caution should
be taken when cleaning the windshield to prevent over-spray from cleaning solutions.
The images in the section below outline those areas that must be kept clean and free from
obstruction. Please refer to the Owner’s Manual for a complete listing of limitations.
