NOTE
If the front part of the vehicle is dam-
aged in an accident to the extent that
the seatbelt pretensioner does not op-
erate, contact your SUBARU dealer as
soon as possible. „ Precautions against vehicle
modification
Always consult your SUBARU dealer if
you want to install any accessory parts to
your vehicle. y Tampering with or disconnecting
the system’s wiring could result in
accidental activation of the seat-
belt pretensioner and/or airbag or
could make the system inopera-
tive, which may result in serious
injury. The wiring harnesses of
the seatbelt pretensioner and SRS
airbag systems are covered with
yellow insulation and the connec-
tors of the system are yellow for
easy identification. Do not use
electrical test equipment on any
circuit related to the seatbelt pre-
tensioner and airbag systems. For
required servicing of the seatbelt
pretensioner, see your nearest
SUBARU dealer.
The front sub sensors are located in
both front fenders and the airbag
control module including the impact
sensors is located under the center
console. If you need service or re-
pair in those areas or near the front
seatbelt retractors, have an autho-
rized SUBARU dealer perform the
work.
Do not perform any of the following
modifications. Such modifications
can interfere with proper operation
of the seatbelt pertensioners. y Attachment of any equipment
(bush bar, winches, snow plow,
skid plate, etc.) other than genu-
ine SUBARU accessory parts to
the front end.
y Modification of the suspension
system or front end structure.
yInstallation of a tire of different
size and construction from the
tires specified on the vehicle plac-
ard attached to the door pillar or

models in this Owner’s Manual.
