Safety / In Case of Emergency
Child Restraint System
For maximum safety, first carefully read the LATCH system instructions from the device
manufacturer, as well as the installation instructions in your Owner’s Manual, to properly
install the LATCH compatible restraint system. Use the appropriate seatbelts or anchorages
provided in your vehicle. Children age 12 and under must properly occupy the rear seat at
all times.
Child Safety Locks
The child safety locks are located on the inside edges of the rear doors. In the locked
position, the rear doors can only be opened from the outside.

Location of Spare Tire and Jack
A jack and other maintenance tools are stored in the tool bucket in the center of the
spare tire, located in the trunk or cargo area. Raise the center lid and remove the bucket
from the center of the spare tire. Take the jack out of the bucket. The jack handle is
stowed on the back of the center lid of the cargo area.
Towing Your All-Wheel Drive Vehicle
Since all-wheel drive distributes engine power to all four wheels, improper
towing will severely damage your AWD system. A flatbed truck is the only
recommended way to properly transport your AWD vehicle. If towing is
necessary, it is best done by your Subaru dealer or a commercial towing service.
Subaru Roadside Assistance
Subaru Roadside Assistance is free and standard on every 2011 Subaru vehicle.
Coverage is automatic; there are no forms to complete. Subaru Roadside
Assistance is available anytime during the 3-year/36,000-mile Subaru Limited
Warranty, whichever comes first.* A Subaru Roadside Assistance decal has
been affixed to the driver’s door window.
Subaru Roadside Assistance: 1-800-261-2155
Exclusions
Specifically excluded from Subaru Roadside Assistance coverage are service
requests or claims resulting from: accidents, vandalism, acts of God, violation
of any laws, or vehicle modifications not recommended by the manufacturer.
*See your dealer for details
