warning SUBARU FORESTER 2022 Getting Started Guide

Lane Change Assist (LCA)
Lane Change Assist (LCA) provides an additional level of protection by warning you of
rapidly approaching vehicles in the neighboring lanes. If LCA detects a vehicle
approaching at a high speed in the neighboring lanes, the BSD/RCTA approach indicator
light in the corresponding side mirror frame illuminates. If you operate the turn signal lever
in the direction the BSD/RCTA approach indicator light is illuminated, the system rapidly
flashes the BSD/RCTA approach indicator light.
Rear Cross-Traffic Alert (RCTA)
This function detects a vehicle approaching
from either side as you reverse, helping you
check the rear and side areas of the vehicle
when moving backward. If RCTA detects a
vehicle approaching from either side while
moving backward, the system provides visual
and audible warnings: The BSD/RCTA
approach indicator light(s) on the side mirror(s)
flash, the BSD/RCTA warning indicator
appears in the upper corner of the Rear-Vision
Camera display, and a warning buzzer sounds.
Blind Spot Detection / Rear Cross Traffic Alert OFF
BSD/RCTA can be deactivated by pressing the BSD/RCTA OFF
switch in the instrument panel. Press the switch again to turn
BSD/RCTA back on.
When these functions are off, a yellow BSD/RCTA OFF indicator will
be displayed in the Combination Meter. Deactivating BSD/RCTA
also deactivates Automatic Emergency Steering, if equipped.
When Automatic Emergency Steering is turned off, the Automatic
Emergency Steering OFF indicator is displayed in the Combination
Meter.

DROWSY/INATTENTIVE WARNINGS
DriverFocus®detects when the driver is possibly not paying
attention or is becoming drowsy while driving. It works whether you
are a registered user or not. The system does not provide alerts
when the turn signals are operating or when the select lever is in the
“R” position.
When the system perceives the driver is not paying attention, the
“Keep Eyes on Road” warning will appear in the CMD along with
three rapid beeps.
When the system perceives drowsy driving, various warnings will
appear in the CMD and/or MFD, along with beeps.
Press the Driver Monitoring System OFF button on the instrument
panel to turn the system off. Press it again to turn the system back on again.
DRIVER PROFILE/CONVENIENCE SETTINGS
You can take advantage of convenience settings by becoming a registered driver.
Preferences such as seat and side mirror memory settings, as well as some features in the
MFD and climate control, are uniquely linked to you.
