REAR SEAT REMINDER
The Rear Seat Reminder system assists you in
preventing a child or pet from being left in your
Subaru, prompting you to confirm the
presence of passengers and cargo in the rear
seats. 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 activates when the rear side doors
are opened and closed. When you turn your
Subaru off, the system warns you with audible
beeps and with a “Reminder, Look in Rear
Seat” message in the Combination Meter
Display (CMD).
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
Owner’s Manual.
