WARNING
Do not attach accessories to the
windshield, or fit an extra-wide mir-
ror over the rear view mirror. If the
SRS airbag deploys, those objects
could become projectiles that could
seriously injure vehicle occupants.
! Driver ’s SRS frontal airbag
The driver ’s SRS frontal airbag uses a
dual stage inflator. The inflator operates in
different ways depending on the severity
of impact.
Have the system inspected by your
SUBARU dealer immediately if the SRS
airbag system warning light illuminates. NOTE
The driver
’s SRS side airbag, SRS
curtain airbag and seatbelt preten-
sioner are not controlled by the
SUBARU advanced frontal airbag sys-tem. ! Front passenger ’s SRS frontal air-
bag
The front passenger ’s SRS frontal airbag
uses a dual stage inflator. The inflator
operates in different ways depending on
the severity of impact.
The total load on the seat is monitored by
the passenger ’s occupant detection sys-
tem weight sensor under the seat.
Using the total seat load and seatbelt
buckle switch, the occupant detection
system determines whether the frontpassenger ’s SRS frontal airbag should or
should not be inflated.
The occupant detection system may not
inflate the front passenger ’s SRS frontal
airbag even when the driver ’s SRS frontal
airbag deploys. This is normal.
Observe the following precautions. Failure
to do so may prevent the SUBARU
advanced frontal airbag system from
functioning correctly or cause the system
to fail. . Do not apply any strong impact to the
front passenger ’s seat such as by kicking. .
Do not spill liquid on the front passen-
ger ’s seat. If liquid is spilled, wipe it off
immediately.. Do not remove or disassemble the front
passenger ’s seat.
. Do not install any accessory (such as
an audio amplifier) other than a genuine
SUBARU accessory under the front pas-senger ’s seat.
. Do not place anything (shoes, umbrel-
la, etc.) under the front passenger ’s seat.
. The front passenger ’s seat must not be
used with the head restraint removed. . Do not leave any articles on the front
passenger ’s seat or the seatbelt tongue
and buckle engaged when you leave your vehicle. . Do not place a magnet near the
seatbelt buckle and the seatbelt retractor.. Do not use front seats with their back-
ward-forward position and seatback not
being locked into place securely. If any of
them are not locked securely, adjust them
again. For adjusting procedure, refer to“ Manual seat ”F1-3 (models equipped
with manual seats only).
If the seatbelt buckle switch and/or front passenger ’s occupant detection system
have failed, the SRS airbag system
warning light will illuminate. Have the
system inspected by your SUBARU deal- Seat, seatbelt and SRS airbags

CAUTION
Do not use sharp instruments or
window cleaner containing abra-
sives to clean the inner surface of
the window on which the antenna is
printed. Doing so may damage the
antenna printed on the window.
The antenna is printed on the inner
surface of the rear window glass. &
FM reception
Although FM is normally static free,
reception can be affected by the surround-
ing area, atmospheric conditions, station
strength and transmitter distance. Build-
ings or other obstructions may cause
momentary static, flutter or station inter-
ference. If reception continues to be
unsatisfactory, switch to a stronger station. XM
TMsatellite radio reception
(if equipped)
XM
TMis a continental U.S. based satellite
radio service including music, news,
sports, talk and children ’s programming.
XM
TMprovides digital quality audio and
text information, including song title and
artist name. A service fee is required to
receive the XM
TMservice. For more
information, contact XMTMatwww.xmradio.com or call 1-800-
XMRADIO (1-800-967-2346) for U.S.
www.xmradio.ca or call 1-877-GET-XMSR
(1-877-438-9677) for Canada.
The XM
TMsatellite radio receiver that is
fitted to your vehicle receives the neces-
sary signals from two specially designated
satellites that are in a geostationary orbit
over the equator. One satellite covers the
east coast and the other covers the west
coast. Both of them direct their signals
north. These signals are then relayed
throughout the USA by a network of
ground repeater stations. The satellite
radio signals are transmitted as “line of
sight ”signals. Line of sight signals can be
blocked by objects such as buildings, but
the network of repeater stations allows
signal coverage within urban areas such
as cities.

You may experience problems in receiving XMTMsatellite radio signals in the follow-
ing situations. . If you are driving northward in a coastal
area
You will notice that the XM
TMsatellite
radio antenna is fixed to the upper right
hand corner of your windshield.
The signal comes from the south and may
not be able to reach the antenna in some
circumstances when you are driving north.
. If you are driving in a tunnel or a
covered parking area . If you are driving beneath the top level
of a multi-level freeway. If you drive under a bridge
. If you are driving next to a tall vehicle
(such as a truck or a bus) that blocks the signal . If you are driving in a valley where the
surrounding hills or peaks block the signal
from the south . If you are driving on a mountain road
where the southern direction is blocked by mountains. If you are driving in an area with tall
trees that block the signal (10 m or more),
for example on a road that goes through a
dense forest . The signal can become weak in some
areas that are not covered by the repeater
station network.
Please note that these may be other
unforeseen circumstances when there
are problems with the reception of XM
TM
satellite radio signals. Audio

Installation of accessories
Always consult your SUBARU dealer
before installing a citizen band radio or
other transmitting device in your vehicle.
Such devices may cause the electronic
control system to malfunction if they are
incorrectly installed or if they are not
suited for the vehicle. Audio set
Your SUBARU may be equipped with one
of the following audio sets. See the pages
indicated in this section for operatingdetails. NOTE
If a cell phone is placed near the audio
set, it may cause the audio set to emit
noise when the phone receives calls.
This noise does not indicate an audio
set malfunction. Note that a cell phone
should be placed as far as possible
from the audio set.
