texts or send short messages. The system automatically reconnects
to your Bluetooth
®device and will remember your driver profile.

“Voice Guidance” screen to appear on the
Touchscreen and say “Call [name and phone type]” or
“Dial [number]”.

the “Home” button and then select “Phone”. After the

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 (PCB)
• Pre-Collision Brake Assist
• Pre-Collision Throttle Management
• Lane Departure Warning (LDW)
• Lane Sway Warning
• Lane Departure Prevention
• Advanced Adaptive Cruise Control
• Advanced Adaptive Cruise Control (AACC)
• Lane Centering
• 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 by using
the Pre-Collision Braking System OFF switch
(see page 92).
Pre-Collision Brake Assist
This function recognizes a possible collision with another vehicle, a pedestrian, or object in
front while you are applying the brakes. If the system determines not enough force is
applied, it can assist 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 92).
