DRIVING THE VEHICLE
Automatic Transmission Shift Mode
The Continuously Variable Transmission (CVT)
is electronically controlled and provides two
different driving modes: normal and manual.
Normal Mode
When the select lever is in the “D” (Drive)
position, the transmission is in normal shift
mode. The select lever position indicator in the
Combination Meter Display (CMD) shows “D”
and the transmission automatically shifts into a
suitable forward gear.
Manual Mode
In manual mode, you select the desired gear
position to obtain necessary acceleration and
engine braking. Move the select lever left from
the “D” position into the “M” position to select manual mode. The gear position indicator in
the Combination Meter Display (CMD) shows the currently selected gear. Arrow-shaped
indicators show when upshifting or downshifting is available. To shift, use the paddle shift
control switches behind the steering wheel.
Paddle Shift Control Switches
You can shift gears using the
paddle shift control switches. To
upshift to the next higher gear,
pull the “+” paddle on the right
toward you. To downshift to the
next lower gear, pull the “–”
paddle on the left toward you.
You can temporarily shift gears
even when the select lever is in
the “D” position by pulling either
the “+” or “–” paddle toward you.
Once vehicle speed stabilizes, the
transmission will switch back to
normal mode.
OPERATING THE VEHICLE
37

AUTO START–STOP
The Auto Start-Stop system is designed to automatically stop and restart the engine when
the vehicle is stationary for a short period of time (while waiting for a traffic light or in a
traffic jam) after the engine has warmed up. The system operates in order to reduce fuel
consumption, exhaust emissions and undesired idling noise.
Auto Start-Stop System ON/OFF
The Auto Start-Stop system can be turned on
and off in the Center Information Display (CID)
by using the Auto Start-Stop button on the
Home screen.
NOTE: The system will default to ON after the
vehicle has been shut off.
When the Auto Start-Stop system is turned OFF, the Auto Start-Stop OFF indicator
light in the combination meter display will illuminate. This is a solid yellow indicator.
System Operation
So that it can be used safely and comfortably, in addition to driver operations, the Auto
Start-Stop system is designed to constantly monitor the vehicle conditions as well as the
environment inside and outside the vehicle, in order to control stopping and restarting of
the engine.
After the vehicle has been completely stopped by depressing the brake pedal
with the select lever in the “D” position, the engine will be automatically
stopped.
If you release the brake pedal with the select lever kept in the “D” position, the
engine will be automatically restarted.
Auto Vehicle Hold (AVH) also integrates seamlessly with Auto Start-Stop functions. With
AVH, the parking brake automatically applies, so you can sit without your foot on the brake
pedal. To restart the engine, just gently press down on the accelerator pedal.
OPERATING THE VEHICLE
39

If the engine is temporarily stopped by the system, the Auto Start-Stop indicator light on
the combination meter will illuminate in green. This indicator light will turn off when the
system restarts the engine.
There are several operating conditions for this system to operate as intended. Please refer
to the Owner’s Manual for further information.
Fuel Saving Display
Once the Auto Start-Stop System has stopped
the engine, the Fuel Saving Display will appear
in the Combination Meter Display (CMD),
showing how much time the engine was off in
the top line and the amount of fuel saved in
the bottom line. These are the total stop time
and fuel saved since the trip meter was reset.
No Activity Detected Indicator Light
If the operational conditions are not met when the vehicle is stopped, the
engine will not stop and the Auto Start-Stop No Activity Detected indicator
light will illuminate. This indicator is solid white when illuminated. It will turn off
when the vehicle begins to drive.
Auto Start-Stop Warning Light
The Auto Start-Stop warning light will illuminate in yellow when initially turning
the ignition switch to the “ON” position. The light will turn off after the engine
has started.
NOTE: If the Auto Start-Stop warning light does not turn off or is flashing
yellow after the engine has started, the Auto Start-Stop system may be malfunctioning. We
recommend that you contact your authorized SUBARU Retailer for an inspection.

REAR SEAT REMINDER
The Rear Seat Reminder system assists you in
preventing a child or pet from being left in your
Subaru. The system monitors the opening and
closing of the rear side door. It does not
physically sense the presence of a child or pet.
The system turns on if your Subaru is started
within 30 minutes of a rear side door opening
or closing. It also turns on if a rear side door is
opened and closed when your Subaru is
running and stationary. The system remains on
if your Subaru is turned off and back on again
within 30 minutes and the rear side doors
remained closed.
When you turn your Subaru off, the system warns you audibly and with a “Reminder, Look
in Rear Seat” message in the Combination Meter Display (CMD).
The system operates only one time with each ignition cycle and opening and closing of a
rear side door. You can turn the Rear Seat Reminder off with the touchscreen by selecting
“Settings”, then the “Car” menu.
Passenger Occupant Detection and Seatbelt Reminders
To help keep your passengers
safe, your Subaru has a
passenger occupant detection
and seatbelt reminder system for
each seat, including the rear
seats.
If passengers in the rear seats do
not fasten their seatbelts while the
ignition is in the "ON" position,
the seatbelt warning lights
illuminate or blink for the specific
seat, and a warning chime may
sound.
For more information, please
refer to “Seatbelt Warning Light and Chime” in your Subaru Owner’s Manual.

attachment, and cargo does not exceed the maximum load limit. The maximum total load
on the roof (including crossbars, carrying attachments and cargo) must not exceed
88 pounds.
For more information, please refer to your Owner’s Manual.

Your Subaru is neither designed nor intended to be used for trailer towing. Therefore, never
tow a trailer with your vehicle.
For more information, please refer to your Owner’s Manual.
TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM (TPMS)
Your Subaru has a Tire Pressure Monitoring
System (TPMS). Individual tire pressure can be
