light SUBARU CROSSTREK 2021 Getting Started Guide

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)
• Lane Departure Prevention
• 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
humans, 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 90 for more
details.

Lead Vehicle Start Alert
This function will provide a visual and audible
alert when a stopped vehicle in front of you
begins to move, and your vehicle remains
stationary. Warnings are displayed in the
Combination Meter Display (CMD) with
audible beeps. Lead Vehicle Start Alert is
helpful in situations where you may become
temporarily distracted at a traffic light, and the
vehicle ahead begins to move.
This function can be customized. To change
this setting, use the steering wheel mounted
“i/SET” switches to access the EyeSight
®
settings menu on the CMD.
EYESIGHT
84

REAR-VISION CAMERA
This function provides a clear view of the area
behind the vehicle to help avoid obstacles.
Using a wide-angle camera mounted on the
rear of the vehicle, an image is automatically
displayed on the multimedia screen when you
place the select lever in the “R” position. The
displayed image features a centerline
indicator, colored distance markers, and
dynamic guidelines that move as the steering wheel is turned.
BLIND-SPOT DETECTION (BSD)/ REAR CROSS-
TRAFFIC ALERT (RCTA)(if equipped)
This system uses radar sensors mounted behind the rear bumper on the left and right
sides that warn you if another vehicle is sensed in your blind spots. These functions
provide additional awareness when changing lanes or driving in reverse.
Blind-Spot Detection (BSD)
This function senses if a vehicle is in your blind spot and provides a
visual warning (yellow light) in the corresponding side mirror frame.
Lane Change Assist (LCA)
Lane Change Assist (LCA) works with Blind Spot Detection to
provide an additional level of warning if you attempt to change lanes
with a vehicle in your blind spot. LCA will rapidly flash the corresponding side mirror
indicator if you operate your turn signal when a vehicle is sensed in your blind spot.
DRIVER ASSIST TECHNOLOGIES
87

Rear Cross-Traffic Alert (RCTA)
This function detects a vehicle approaching from
either side as you reverse and provides audible and
visual warnings. Warnings will appear in the upper
corners of the Rear-Vision Camera display and side
mirrors, and audible beeping will sound.
BSD/RCTA can be turned on or off by pressing the
BSD/RCTA OFF switch in the instrument panel. When
this function is off, a yellow BSD/RCTA OFF indicator
will be displayed in Combination Meter.
HIGH BEAM ASSIST (HBA)(if equipped)
This function uses the EyeSight®cameras to automatically switch
the headlights between high and low beam settings when an
oncoming vehicle is detected, 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. The
green HBA indicator will illuminate on the Combination Meter Display (CMD). When vehicle
speed is above approximately 20 mph, HBA will automatically switch between high and
low beams. When the high beams are activated, the blue high beam indicator will be
displayed in the Combination Meter.
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. Although the system is normally on, you can turn the system off using the SRH OFF
switch located on the lower left console.

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.
Advanced Adaptive Cruise Control and Brake Light Recognition are designed to assist the
driver and are not substitutes for safe and attentive driving.
Lane Centering function operates only when used in conjunction with Advanced Adaptive
Cruise Control.
Lane Departure Prevention operates only when the lane markings are visible, and system
effectiveness depends on many factors.
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 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
Camera when backing up. See Owner’s Manual for complete details on system operation
and limitations.
