above have been taken, seat the child/
small adult in the rear seat and im-
mediately contact your SUBARU dealer
for an inspection. Even if the system
has passed the dealer inspection, it is
recommended that on subsequent trips
the child/small adult always take the

tions is met regarding the front passen-
ger’s seat.
.When the seat is occupied by an adult.
.When a heavy article is placed on the
seat.
CAUTION
When the front passenger’s seat is
occupied by an adult, observe the
following precautions. Failure to do
so may lessen the load on the front
passenger’s seat, deactivating thefront passenger’s SRS frontal airbag

occupied by an adult. This may
result in personal injury.
.Do not allow the rear seat occu-
pant to lift the front passenger’s
seat cushion using his/her feet.
.Do not place any article under the
front passenger’s seat, or
squeeze any article from behind
and under the seat. This may lift
the seat cushion.
.Do not squeeze any article be-
tween the front passenger’s seat
and side trim/pillar, door or cen-
ter console box. This may lift the
seat cushion.
!If the passenger’s frontal airbag
OFF indicator illuminates and
the ON indicator turns off even
when the front passenger’s seat
is occupied by an adult
This can be caused by the adult incor-
rectly sitting in the front passenger’s seat.
1. Turn the ignition switch to the“LOCK”/
“OFF”position.
2. Ask the front passenger to set the
seatback to the upright position, sit up
straight in the center of the seat cushion,
correctly fasten the seatbelt, position his/her legs out forward, and adjust the seat to
the rearmost position.
3. Turn the ignition switch to the“ON”
position.
If the OFF indicator remains illuminated
while the ON indicator remains off, take
the following actions.
1. Turn the ignition switch to the“LOCK”/
“OFF”position.
2. Ensure that there is no article, book,
shoe, or other object trapped under the
seat, at the rear of the seat, or on the side
of the seat.
3. Ensure that the backward-forward
position and seatback of front passenger’s
seat are locked into place securely by
moving the seat back and forth. (Models
equipped with manual seats only)
4. Turn the ignition switch to the“ON”
position and wait 6 seconds to allow the
system to complete self-checking. Follow-
ing the system check, both indicators turn
off for 2 seconds. Now, the ON indicator
should illuminate while the OFF indicator
remains off.

nated while the ON indicator remains off,
ask the occupant to move to the rear seat
and immediately contact your SUBARU
dealer for an inspection.
