WARNING
Do not use Adaptive Cruise Control on slippery roads. Doing so may result in
an accident.
CAUTION
When shifting the selector lever to the position, Adaptive Cruise Control
will be automatically canceled. Do not shift the lever to the position unless
it is an emergency. Otherwise the engine brake may not operate, which could
cause an accident.
NOTE
xIf EyeSight operation has temporarily stopped, the Pre-Collision Braking
System OFF indicator light and Lane Departure Warning OFF indicator
light illuminate, and the EyeSight temporary stop indicator is displayed on
the multi information display.
Ÿ Refer to page 87.
xIf EyeSight is malfunctioning, the EyeSight warning indicator is displayed
on the multi information display, and the Pre-Collision Braking System
OFF indicator light and Lane Departure Warning OFF indicator light will
also illuminate. If this occurs, stop the vehicle in a safe location and then
turn off the engine and restart it. If the indicators remain illuminated after
restarting the engine, Adaptive Cruise Control cannot be used. This will not
interfere with ordinary driving; however the system should be inspected by
a SUBARU dealer as soon as possible.
Ÿ Refer to page 86.
xWhen the operation of Adaptive Cruise Control has been automatically
canceled, perform the set cruise control operation again after the condition
that caused the cancellation has been corrected. If the cruise control func-
tion cannot be set even after the condition has been corrected, EyeSight
may be malfunctioning. This will not interfere with ordinary driving; how-
ever contact a SUBARU dealer and have the system inspected.

■“Brake more” warning
The “brake more” warning is activated while Adaptive Cruise Control is tracking a lead vehi-
cle. This function warns the driver when it determines that the current level of deceleration
by automatic braking control is insufficient.
xWhen the ‘brake more’ function operates,
“Obstacle Detected” will be shown in the
pop-up screen area of the multi information
display, a lead vehicle indicator will flash,
and a buzzer will sound several short
beeps.

- The brake pedal is depressed.
xEven when the following distance is short, the “brake more” warning may
not activate in the following situations.
- The difference in speed with the vehicle in front is small. (The two vehi-
cles are travelling at almost the same speed.)
- The vehicle in front is traveling faster than your vehicle. (The following
distance is gradually increasing.)
- Another vehicle cuts into your lane very close to your vehicle.
- The vehicle in front decelerates suddenly.
- When there are repeated uphill and downhill grades
xThe “brake more” warning may not activate in time in the case of a vehicle
that is stopped at the end of a line at a toll gate, at a stop light or intersec-
tion or in traffic congestion, or a vehicle that is moving much slower than
your vehicle. EyeSight requires a speed differential in order to recognize a
potential obstacle and react to it.
